I like this guy... Boy troubles! Help please?

Question

Well me and my friend both have boy problems.

MY FRIENDS problem is that, she likes a guy.. but he is being oblivious.. so how does she get him to like her? They go to different schools so they can't see each other at school. They have each others MSN and phone numbers. How does she get him to like her?

MY problem is sort of the same.. but different.

I like this guy, and he is funny and sweet. But I dont think that he has caught onto the idea that i like him as more than a friend...

He goes to a different school as well.. so we can't see each other at school.. and i have his MSN and phone number.

I have texted him a few times but he doesnt seem to reply quickly..( takes about a day or two).. and when we talk on MSN he only stay's online for about half an hour..

so how do i get him to like me, and talk to me more?

should i ask him out?

please help

Answer 1

yes

Answer 2

Find out his interests and show that your are concerned about his interests and care about what he cares about.  Find common ground.  And, yes, by all means, ask him out.  A lot of guys would be relieved if the girl asked them for a change--it takes the pressure off of them.  (This is especially true for shy guys.)  Good luck!

Answer 3

For your friend: if she really likes him she should firstly hang out with him so that he has a chance to start liking her. She should just be herself and bring out the best in herself (say if she is funny, she should crack jokes or if she is nice, she should be really friendly and show it off). Then after some time, flirting wouldn't hurt.

For you: try flirting with this guy... get the message across to him that you like him but don't be too available either (because thats a huge turn-off)... later down the track "suggest" hanging out sometime and see what he says. If he says no, then theres always others so don't stress.

Remember: you can't MAKE someone like you. Just be yourself and if he likes you GREAT, if he doesn't, thats HIS LOSS...Move on.

Hope this helps.

Answer 4

Well firstly, you can't MAKE someone like you. It's important to be yourself and if they're attracted to you, great. If not, then maybe they're not the right person for you anyway.

Secondly, remember that guys aren't always as good at having a conversation as girls are.  

So when he doesn't speak much, it's probably nothing personal. He probably doesn't even realise he's doing anything wrong.

So just take it easy. Maybe ask him if he wants to catch up sometime and go out, and if you're nervous about it, get a group of friends together and go out and invite him to go along. That way you can hang out with him and get to know him without having to feel awkward.
