He Isn't Asking Me Out
Sarah, 17
Washington
Asks:
This guy I know is quite shy and everybody I know that he likes me, but he just isn't asking me out. How can I drop hints? Should I kiss him on the cheek next time I say goodbye? We see each other regularly and if I were to ask him to take me home, he would, which I think is sweet. We phone, chat on msn, text, flirt and touch each other, but I'm scared it'll turn into 'friendship' and I don't want that. I mean, getting to know if he likes me isn't the case, as its clear he does, but can you help me and tell me what to do. Thanks.
Lee's Thoughts:
Okay, so you know he likes you, now it's just a matter of adding the *romantic spice* to the situation. You can subtly and easily shift things that way by simply holding his hand for a little bit longer than you normally would. Hold it softly, not like a buddy. Stand a little closer to him for a little longer, and YES, I think a kiss on the cheek as you are leaving is an EXCELLENT idea. It's quick and simple and it will really get your point across.
The main point is to start treating him, talking to him differently than you talk to anyone else. Make him feel special. Soon you will start to feel him treating you a little differently too.
You are on the right track. Definitely ask him to give you a ride home. You're doing great. Good LUCK!! Let me know how things progress!!
