Ok, so I hung out with the guy I like on Friday night. He came over my house and we watched movies and talked about life n' stuff. He stayed till 11:50 p.m. and apparently (he said so) he had a good time. I was sooo happy he came, he's really cool and fun to hang out with. I'm pretty sure he only wants to be friends right now though (although he did admit to one of his friends that he thought I was pretty). He just got out of a serious relationship and I think his EX screwed w/ his head a bit. She was really clingy and I think he's under the impression that that's a normal relationship. I want to go out with him, but I'm willing to wait until he's ready. What should I do in the meantime? He knows I like him, but should I ask him if there's even a possibility of us ever going out? I don't want to be wasting my time on something that isn't even gonna happen. But he's always nice to me: smiling at me, joking with me, having nice convos, huggin goodbye, hanging w/ me, and just being a really sweet guy. But then I'm also thinking that it's not anything important cuz i'm always the one to initiate our hang-outs outside of school. I really like him, but I'm not sure what to do next.
Any and all advice is welcome! Sorry for the length...
Believe it or not, time will answer all the questions you currently have. In general, men move more slowly and deliberately into relationships (in may not seem that in, in that they seem to only think about sex most of the time). Think of it this way; he won't tell you he's ready for something serious until he pretty certain it will work out. If he's not coming out with his feelings, then he probably wouldn't make a good boyfriend anyway in that he's still dealing with many issues from the past. Good luck and remember...all good things come with time. [ MissNiceness's advice column | Ask MissNiceness A Question ]
