Question Posted Wednesday November 16 2005, 2:59 pm
a guy i like asked me out. he's so shy that he actually got my friend to do it. i think that's cute though. but i'm a little old fashioned and think he should make a move on me. i said yes, but today in school we went about normally like we're just friends.
i don't want to come off too strong, but i want to get him to acknowledge that we're going out. at least say it, or hold my hand or something. i think he might be a little embarassed if i went up to him and took his hand, because he's so shy.
advice please?

Once again most guys think girls that are always calling him or constantly labling him as 'hers' isn't exactly a turn on. But I'm going to be honest and say, it can get exhausting if your constantly trying to make sure he's comfortable all the time. But if you really like the guy try and soften him up a bit, show him there is no need to be shy around you.

The next time your in school, walk up behind him and hug him from behind. You can do it briefly and let go and just be like "heyy" or "hey youu" in a flirty/cheery voice. Trust me, this isn't too strong. Break the ice before it gets out of hand and massively akward! I don't think he would be embarassed, and he shouldn't be. He's not going to shake you off especially when you're going out! You can't lose in this situation. Make sure you make the effort to sit with him at lunch...put your feet on his lap or something. Be giggly around him, and just let loose. Good Luck! Let me know if this helps. [ Mercy_x_Me's advice column | Ask Mercy_x_Me A Question ]
