Would it be too weird...?


Question Posted Tuesday December 4 2007, 8:51 pm

Mm'kays, so I like a guy, and we were so much closer last year...his best friend likes me but he's an ass about it, so there's no way I'd go out with him AND be happy. So, not happening.

So, with the guy I like, we're both shy, but I've gotten over that, and I'm very outgoing now and such. But like, arrg, now that I'm not shy towards him anymore--he's completely shy towards me!(I so said "shy" a lot right there) So, I swallow the butterflies and I finally start of conversations, but they fall limp and he's usually nervously looking around and...yeah..awkward situation. But it's not that I feel that he doesn't like me anymore...I often see him looking at me, and smiling when I catch him. There's many instances through the day when it seems he'll go out of his way to be closer to me...but when we engage in conversation, he seems bothered.

So...to my point..I used to watch his soccer games, but now that it's getting to be winter, he joined the swim team. I REALLY want to watch his swim matches, but I'm wondering if he would feel weird if I showed up to them. I'm hoping he'd feel flattered, but I really don't want to weird him out...he just doesn't seem like the type who would be...he's very friendly but I'm just concerned his friend's crush on me has distanced us.

Thanks =)

I would say that he does, in fact, still like you, but he acts bothered when you guys talk because he knows his friend likes you and he doesn't want to be an 'unloyal' friend. You know how you wouldn't date a guy your friend liked unless you made sure it was okay with her first? It's kind of like that, but instead of him having to worry about getting the silent treatment if he makes a move, he has to worry about black eyes and bloody noses.
Suffice to say, he's probably worried about what's going to happen with his buddy if you guys get together because his buddy's an 'ass'. Hope this helps.

Just because his friend likes you doesn't mean you need to widen the distance between you and him.
I would go to his swim meets, because there is nothing better than having someone who is always there to show their support.

You should just come out with it and ask him why he seems so bothered when you try to talk to him. If he says it's because of his friend, then tell him the truth- you aren't interested in his FRIEND...
