What’s a girl supposed to do?

Hey Victor! I’m so freakin' nervous... why??? I’m going home in 10 days (it’s been 3 weeks)! While I’ve been gone, my guy friend & I have been communicating daily & we’re progressing. But, I am so afraid my expectations are...well heck, I don't know what my expectations are! It feels like he's really into me but I just don't know for sure. Everything points that way except he doesn't say ANYTHING to confirm he feels that way. The only thing I do know…is that we’re great friends.
I really believe in my heart that our friendship is way more important than dating each other and while I don't want to ruin it, I can't help but get butterflies when I think of the possibility of “us.” How corny is that? Just yesterday, I told him I was going to kidnap him when I got back. He was very interested and actually flirty about it. ;)
I guess I don’t want to look/feel foolish when all along he’s just been thinking “FRIENDS” and I have been taking it as “MORE.” Man, that would totally suck. The thing is, I can’t and won’t say anything to him about it for now. But, oh gosh, what’s a girl supposed to do? And tell me, is it as hard being a guy in these situations as it is being a girl?
VictorM's advice:
No, it's not hard for guys. My guess is that he's having a great time with all of this and isn't losing any sleep over it.
Whether he's thinking "more" or not -- I bet that like you, he is -- he will wait and take his time. For guys, the journey is as much fun as the destination.
