knock some sense into him


Question Posted Sunday February 5 2006, 8:34 pm

So I know this guy likes me and I like him but he doesn't know I like him. Anyways, this one friend of mine who's friends with both of us is telling me to ask out the kid who likes me because he knows he's going to say yes. Anyways the problem is, I don't ask people out anymore because of really bad experiances with it, and apparently he wont ask me out because he's to shy and thinks I'll say no. Even when the middle friend tells him I will say yes he wont do it. Should I give it time or forget the whole thing?

PS please dont say ask him out because im not going to

you should say something, it doesnt matter if u ask him out just tell him that u like him and if he reacts weird then back off and give it some time but never give up because the hardest things to get in life are truly the best

Well, maybe instead of asking him out, you can invite him somewhere very casual, as friends, this may give him the confidence he needs to ask you out. Also, you could just tell him you like him too and then he can ask you out with out being nervous about you saying no. If you like each other, don't give up on it, give it a little time.

Hope you guys work it out!

hey, ive been there over and over again...although you dont want to actually ask him out, maybe you should just say how you feel and tell him that you feel the same way(scared maybe frm past experiences)let him know that you care and your not going to hurt his feelings. I know it sucks to like a shy guy who wont take action but be brave and know not all guys are like the ones in your past. good luck!

Like the person before me said, you gotta let him know you like him if you don't want to ask him out. You can tell him, or you can flirt with him. Laugh at his joke (no matter how stupid they may be), maintain eye contact while you talk to him, compliment him (but don't overdo it), or smile at him. Be genuinely interested in what he has to say. Don't overdo the flirting; for most guys, that's a turnoff. Hopefully, he'll get the idea.

Unless this middle friend finally convinces the guy to ask you out, nothing will happen. I'm not saying to ask him out, I'm just letting you know what will probably happen.
If you did ask him out, what would you have to lose? He likes you and you know that. Just because you've had bad experiences with asking people out doesn't mean that you should never ask anyone out again. If you do that, you could miss out on so many good relationships. Again, I'm not telling you to ask him out, I'm just telling you that you wouldn't really have anything to lose if you did.

I hope I helped, and if you have any more questions, feel free to leave one in my inbox!
