Do I take things further with my guy friend?

I’ve liked on of my friends for about six months now. We dont really talk but he is part of the group I hang out with. Recently, I did a quiz on facebook about my future boyfriend and it came up with his name. I posted this and his best friend said that he liked this and I found out that he was actually there at the time. On a recent gathering I also heard him talk to his best friend and another mutual friend and my name was mentioned. I heard his best friend say he wanted to ask me something but didnt dare and then gave the guy I like the advice “your just gonna have to speak to her”. I’m so confused about whether he knows that I like him becasue I have been very subtle with my feelings and whether I should take things further or not and how to do this.

What have you got to lose? You won’t know until you try.

You guys can’t see the pink elephant in the room, can you? You both like each other but are just a little shy to seal the deal. You can just tell him he could take you out if he wanted to next time the two of you are semi-alone. Say it with a smile. This is always a good starting point.

This seems like a “he said she said” type of thing. I would just walk right up to him and ask about it. How else is it going to get resolved?

It just seems that he talks to everyone else but me. There’s the obvious “Hi, how are you?” but nothing more. I just really don’t know what is going on.

Oh and I’m scared that i’ll frighten him away or make things awkward if I just tell him how I feel and he doesn’t feel the same, especially cos we hardly know each other.

Telling him he can take you out will not scare him away. Take your doctor’s advice.

maybe you should start with hanging out. ask him if he wants to just go and do something for fun so you can really see what he’s all about and get some one on one time. hopefully things go good.
