Question I met a boy on Sunday (we're both 19). He had been talking to my best friend (JD) and his new girlfriend (Sarah) for about an hour when I entered the scene (they had just met him at well). Even though boy and I only met for a few minutes, I got a good vibe and have been facebook stalking him since. I facebook chatted with him, and the next night invited him to dinner with JD and Sarah. We're doing that dinner tomorrow. I'm hoping to get his number and start texting him or inviting him to dinners semi-regularly, and maybe invite him (casually) to the movie that JD, Sarah, and I are going to that night.
I've never really pursued a boy before and I'm not really sure what to do tomorrow to make it clear that I'm interested... while not making it clear that I'm interested. You know? I don't want to be too forward and stuff (I feel like I have been so far... even if that only has consisted of facebooking), but I do want this to move forward. Advice?
Answer Just spend time with him as a friend and let it grow from there because you want to spend time on the social level and see if there's a chance of moving it past being friends at some point. Part of the problem with women is that they want to move it to dating when it's a process and when I started dating my boyfriend he and I talked for a couple months on Facebook before he asked me out on a date. What you want is to take your time in getting to know this guy and let things grow naturally don't rush into something because usually it never works out in the long run if you rush dating.Just take your time and spend it getting to know this guy away from your friends so you can get to know him a lot better without the double date deal.
