What the hell you waiting for?
Ask him out!
Right now. After all, it is 19 ... 5 ... 5 ...
I knew that damned DeLorean was too good a deal to be true!
Get the idea? No call for you to be waiting on him making up his mind and screwing up his courage. If he is the guy you want, then go for it. You don't sit and wait for colleges to phone and offer you a degree, or for companies to call and beg you to be their CEO. Why treat a relationship any different?
Do something no pressure - go for a coffee or for lunch. But do something.
The absolute worst thing that can happen is you get turned down cold. And if you think that is likely to happen, well your signal reading is bad enough that I really hope you don't drive in traffic.
To the anonymous questioner who sent in this particular question:
"i have asked you like 7 questions ANSWER ME YOU ASSHOLEEEE !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
Yeah, that'll work.
Straight up ask him out, like Mist said. What’s the worst that can happen? You won’t be together like you are right now? You’ll never know…, till you know. Good luck.
((Love, love, love the last paragraph. Maybe the anonymous questioner needs to work on their people skills.))
Good luck!! I hope you guys can finally be together!!
It's definitely hard to put yourself out there and be the one to take a risk/chance, but it's better than waiting around idly while neither of you make a move. Who knows, you may even feel empowered by being the one to ask him out! He might even appreciate it. Maybe he's too shy to ask you himself.
Its 2011, it's cool to ask him out. If you don't want to be the one planning the whole night, you can ask him what he would like to and have him plan it. Or you two can come up with something to do together.
You only live once, good luck!!!!
I guess fear makes us treat it differently or not being confident enough, even though we know the guy has a crush on us. A tiny voice (usually with me) says, " imagine if he not that into you." But I like the new point of view you gave asking a guy out, brilliant.
Btw guess the questioner got your attention after all ;) maybe not in a positive way though...
Ciao Bello
Aww...too cute. He probably has no clue you are crushing on him. I liked my current boyfriend for eight months before we finally went out. I thought I was pathetic with all of the clues I was sending him that I liked him...turns out he didn't really pick up on a one of them. I finally pretty much had to tell him I liked him and lucky for me he liked me too. Seeing as you are pretty certain he likes you I say go for it...just tell him...you have nothing much to lose but so much to gain. Good luck and I hope it works out for you!!
Dont ask him out. Pretend to ignore (make him assume youre over him) and he will feel treatened and very into you all of sudden to the point where he will have to ask you out. Good luck. Let him do the work, well, at least for the first few months of relationship.
Hmmm. In your case I would make him do the asking. A YEAR! Too long... Something very annoying about waiting a year and having you do the asking too. If he likes you, he can't get off easy now... Not against you asking him out to speed things up but he tells your friend he likes you... and does NOTHING(!)... It is your call but going against the majority here: He's just got to man up and show you he likes you...
I have to say that I agree with you, SWSNBN and mmm. And yes, it seems that we're in the minority here. Seems to me that if you've been giving him obvious signs that you like him for a year, and he hasn't done ANYthing about it yet, something's a little off. Maybe he's just scared, but still--kinda odd. Unless you're in middle school or something (and maybe you are, since you said you walk to class together...)
If I were you, I might tell one of HIS friends that you like him, maybe the same one who he told, in fact. And if he still doesn't do anything after that, then, well, I don't know what to tell you haha
I have to disagree with you two. You're assuming that he's picking up the signals, and that's really not necessarily the case. If she asks him out there's a chance for a great relationship which she wants, and if she doesn't ask him out, she may never know. Really, there's no downside to asking him, so why not?
If there was no telling when she would see him again, then she should ask him out to something casual like coffee the next time she sees him.
The fact is they are always talking and walking to class together. They are accessible to each other. In this case, if he likes her and it sounds like he does - in my opinion, he should do the asking... It is a special moment and speaking as a woman, it would mean that much more.
or he may not see your interest.
