Can I get this relationship past short messages on facebook?

Question - (2 September 2012) 2 Answers - (Newest, 2 September 2012)
A female Canada age 36-40, anonymous writes:

I met this guy at a bar on a friday night, we saw each other the following day and then again two weeks after that. Always in group settings. He is shy and so am I. We also sometimes send each other message on facebook. We have common interests and will send each other book recommendations and things like that. To me, it's a hint that he sometimes is thinking about me.

However, he never asked me out or anything and we don't talk that often. From pieces of conversations I overheard, I know he has 2 main reasons not to date me. First, he is 7 years older then I am. At our age it shouldn't really matter but he says he dated younger girls in the past that weren't in the same place in life. Second, he is part of a kind of popular band and is scared that I am a groupie (I am not, I didn't even know the band before I met him). We did not discuss those things and our relationship isn't close enough that we can.

Do you think there is a way that I can get this relationship past the "short message about twice a week on facebook" phase?

So_Very_Confused agony auntyou may have to make the move.... maybe talk about how immature all the men your age are......

I'd say ask him out but if you are so sure he's going to think you are a groupie, then you have to let it be his plan...
