I'm 17 F, and I have a major crush on this guy. On Tuesday I was talking to him (we have conversations occasionally, like once every week or two), and he suggested I read this one book. Wednesday evening I started the book and I'm really enjoying it. Would it be weird if I went up to him tomorrow (Friday) and told him that I'm liking the book he recommended?
Guys are shy about asking girls out, afraid of rejection, feel awkward and generally fear making grievious mistakes in how they act due to not having much experience so they feel it safer to just enjoy the girl as a friend. Its not a guarantee this guy is interested in you that way. But I can guarantee that the longer you both stay in the friend zone, it becomes even harder to make the move into dating..the fears grow. So its best to go for it at this point early on. I wouldnt even see it as odd or out of place to say something like, I like your choice in books, if and I like some other things about you. I am wondering if we could maybe spend more time hanging out together to see if we like more things about each other and see where that leads, maybe even to dating. If he only sees you as a friend and has no romantic feelings towards you, then heres his moment to say something. And the way its worded actually leaves him a way out naturally without it being awkward for him. Let me know how it goes if you'd like.
