Love interest wasn't over his ex... do you think he is ready to move on yet?
Question Posted Wednesday February 1 2012, 11:06 am
Ok so I really liked this guy he was really nice and I told him I liked him. He said that he wasn't over his ex who broke his heart. So he said he thought I was beautiful to one of my friends and I danced with him at homecoming and when the lights came on we kept dancing untill the song ended. Yet when he saw me with my male friend he got a sad look on his face and hasn't talked to me since.
So I am wondering if he likes me now. I still love him and even when I was texting a guy friend all I could think of was him. Please advise

I think he likes you. I know a guy who's not over his ex yet and I want to date him. The thing is, you have to show him your outgoing fun-loving personality in order for a guy in this situation to love you more than his ex. The fact that he danced with you, was honest about his ex, and had a sad look on his face, tells me that he cares about you. How you ask? The sad face doesn't mean he didn't like you, it just meant that he needs reassurance that you won't be like his ex and cheat on him with your guy friend; He has a broken heart after all. To help your love interest realize this, you have to let him know that you and this other guy are just friends. Once you let him know that and he understands, ask him if he would like to go out with you. Oh, and don't tell him you love him right away cuz that might freak him out. After you are in relationship mode, wait until you can tell he feels the same way as you, then let him know.
I do believe once you tell him how you feel and how you won't hurt him, he'll be open with you and talk to you again. Now, remember to not rush things. Start by telling him you and your bud are just friends then work from there with your love interest. I'm sure he will appreciate the honesty, but if for some reason he can't let his heart move on just yet.. Give him time. Say a week or so without bugging him/asking him, then try again. He will be more likely to say yes and by the sounds of it, you've already got a good start :) [ gr8fruit's advice column | Ask gr8fruit A Question ]
