Does he want more than a friendship?


Question Posted Thursday October 27 2005, 2:11 am

I was asked out to lunch with a guy that I'm just friends with (but have suspected that he has deeper feelings for me).
After we ordered he started to ask me all sorts of questions, like where was I going to find the guy of my dreams, and that prince charming wasnt going to knock on my door. Then he told me that he was worried that if I wasnt in a relationship by 5 years time ( I am 27 ) that I wouldnt be very happy.
The whole time the conversation took place he looking at me romantically, and after I finished eating, I applied a fresh coat of lipstick and he couldnt keep his eyes off me.
When we left it was pouring rain and he took his umbrella and covered me even though he was soaked, and walked REALLY close to me.
He has always been shy and would never say he wanted to be more then friends upfront. Do you think this was his way of telling me he wants to be my boyfriend?

OK, it is obvious that you already know he likes you! Otherwise you would not notice the "romantic" way he looks at you. Yes, asking you those questions is his shy way of saying "I love you but I am too shy to say it." He is probably hoping that you will get the hint and make the first move. He is probably afraid that if he says anything, you will reject him and then things will be awkward between you. He seems very considerate of you. I mean he held an umbrella over you, sacrificing his own comfort for yours. The man is in love with you!! It is obvious and you see it too. Do you have any "romantic" feelings for him? If you want to hear him say he likes you more than a friend, then you should just ask him why he was asking you these questions. Take a chance, you never know, he could be your prince charming :)

If you do not want to hear it, don't ask. Just pretend that you are oblivious to his attraction.

OMG!!! If that isn't a green light sign that he likes you I don't know what is!!

Especially if he is shy, it was probably a way of asking you without doing it directly as he is probably scared of rejection!

I would invite him out to lunch and try and broach the subject again, if you like him, (and I have a funny feeling you do!!) and see how it goes!!

Good luck!!

Yeah. Now you have tell him in a nice way "no". Unless you like him, but I just don't get that impression. He sounds nice, not a total loser. Give him a chance. If it doesn't work out, oh well.

It seems to me like he has more feelings than friendship but that might just be me... give it a try and bring a relationship between you two up in a conversation. Give it a try

It could be that he was hoping for some idea of how you feel about him to reveal itself.

If you want to give it a try but think he won't come right out and say something, ask him what he's hinting at. :)

yes i think he has feelings for you because he was trying to find out where you will find the man of your dreams. He was also trying to find out if you are seeing anyone? If he looked at you romantically i think he likes you and wants to be your bf! go out with him again and see what happens.Flirt with him if you like him. Soon he will ask you out hope i helped lv sweetcornxx
