I met a guy (friend of a friend), about a couple months ago...I've seen him twice. We talked briefly the first time we met, and the second time I saw him, I realized I am attracted to him, and unfortunately, was pretty drunk and dancing up a storm with my friend (a guy); so not nearly at my best.
It was pretty apparent to me that the attraction ran both ways, but he seems shy- he did kinda hint at wanting to meet up again, but no numbers were exchanged- plus I was pretty drunk and dancing the night away with a guy friend the second time around. Don't know if that sent him (the guy i like) the wrong signal...
So now, a month after...I decided to just go ahead and friend him on facebook, a few days ago. He did confirm me as a friend shortly after, but hasn't contacted me in any way. I didn't send him a message, but thought if he were still interested, he might initiate something. So I commented on his post, and no response.
Maybe I'm overanalyzing this, but I'm thinking that he's either a) lost interest, b) my somewhat drunken/dancing turned him away, or c) he's shy, or even yes, d) there's nothing to read into, and I just need to chill.
SO...what could any of this mean? And should I do anything, or just let it go...

Now lets back track...
He could be the type of guy that isn't into drinking and partying, It could be he saw the way you were acting and it turned him away.
The only way to know is to try, If he doesn't message you back then it looks like he may of lost interest. However, before you jump the gun try checking his facebook to see if he has any recent post. This guy may just not be into computers either. [ Xui's advice column | Ask Xui A Question ]

It has been a month so you may want to introduce yourself again and remind him how you guys met. He will most likely respond in privacy, and through inbox he will be more likely to give you his number. Think of it as starting over, a clean slate, and get to know each other all over again. Maybe he got the wrong idea about you and your friend; thought maybe you liked him or something. If this is the case, you may need to clarify what really happened and that you are sorry for the misunderstanding. [ Advicelady6798's advice column | Ask Advicelady6798 A Question ]
