hello
now some girls like guys for different reasons, maybe she likes him better its not really a matter of being better..sometimes it just doesnt work in your favor, just happens. but there are ways to build up comfort so she can over all think about you more, giving you the upper hand over your friend

when you see her i suggest you do something fun, stuff she would like to do but dont just say "well you decide what we do" if she doesnt, fuck it you decide! be fun and be happy, smile alot, just be over all an uplifter
along those lines take some time when you hang out, doesnt have to be to long to just talk. build up comfort with talking, getting to know each other, swapping stories, anything really just talk girls talking builds comfort with a guy, so as a guy just suffer through it and make it good topics to talk about
after you talk go out and do something fun again to break rapport and push a little kino. once you have a serious talk dont stay in that state with her go out switch it back to happy fun. since you have had enough time to hang out, talk, have fun, kino will come more natural then trying to very quickly. the comfort is built and now its time to be more flirty once she knows you better, it will work alot better that way mate

from there, many things happen but the rest you can just work with as it comes, this setup is good though just to really get the comfort built so she knows you and has the trust between each other for kino to come naturally and not be shut down. just dont wait to long in the friendly stage, once you feel like you guys are flirting, push the kino so you dont stay just as friends

goodluck
