I always tend to either shut down or say too much around them. Or I make myself look like an idiot. It's a curse. So a few weeks ago I was in this class (im the TA) and this cute guy who sits by me started flirting. I think. He jokes around, made up a nickname for me, is super sweet, asks about my life, he's just great. But he's extremely attractive. I'm not. I'm short and overweight. He's a tall, tan, lifter.My bestie is convinced he likes me but I can't really see it. He bought me breakfast the other day because I didn't eat that morning, I have two shirts with pineapples on them and every time I wear one he comments on it ("hey, nice shirt" "yeah, pineapples...best fruit" etc). She tells me these are clear signs he's interested...but couldn't he just be a really nice guy??I tried to ask him out, but I botched it...so it was more me offering him a movie pass for a place by the dorms but turns out he works there and gets free passes so he told me not to waste them on him. At this point I think he likes me...but term just ended and I'm not sure I'll see him for a while. I want to see where it goes, of course, but I really don't want to make that first move...how do I make the move? Or how do I get him to realize I want him to do it?

Hope that hepls! :)

 There are different ways to do it. You can tell him since you both have movie passes, it would be a good idea to watch a movie together. Or, he bought you breakfast the other day, buy him lunch and sit together. It won't seem like you are asking him out but it could end up being a date if there is mutual interest. Some guys are out girls when they are 110% sure that they like them back. Because of your shyness maybe it wasn't shown to him. Don't be embarrassed if you find out he doesn't like you that way. Misunderstandings happen all the time. It doesn't mean he shouldn't flirt with people.
