A female Ireland age 30-35, anonymous writes:

i have this guy friend and we were always pretty good friends but we always had a bit of a thing for eachother and now we're in a sort of relationship but we're taking things pretty slowly.

when it comes to guys, im only as confident as they are. if he is really confident, i can be too.

being close friends already, me and this guy can talk about everything and anything ,so no problems there, but he is clearly shy when it comes to expressing how he feels. he can say that he likes me but he seems to really struggle to show it. which makes me the same. some of his best friends have spoken to me and said that as shy as i can get around him, he is shyer so im gunna have to make the moves for a while before he'll come out of his shell.

he is a proper gentleman and he is really careful with what he does which is nice but he wont even sit next to me or hug me unless he is sure thats what i want. the other day, he did get the confidence to hold my hand which is great cos his mates didnt even think he was confident enough to do that. i know that he likes me alot. i can tell he would love to be able to be more confident with me. his friends have reassured me that say i went to kiss him, he definitly wont turn it down but i have never been in a situation where i am making the moves! im used to following someone elses lead.

he is a really great guy and i would love to give it a go at being with him so if anyone has any tips on how i can bring his confidence up it would be a great help!

thankz

Duckiies agony aunthaha THIS is funny. Great story. I think he wouldnt mind you making the move. To be honest, it probably turn him on. I suggest you, if you wanna kiss him lean in and he will eventually lean in too. Just make sure you take everything slowly , meaning kiss slowly and be passionate for one another.If you want to bring hes confidence up is just show how much you mean to him. Smile a lot and lead hes hands where you want it to be. Whisper to hes ear, and say things u want him to do to you.

Best of luck

JUST GO FOR IT, WE ONLY LIVE ONCE.
