He's a friend of a friend of mine and seems a lot more mature than most guys my age (normally I have to go for guys at least 10 years older than me to get this kind of maturity). The first few times we met he seemed interested in me too, and our common friend has passed on to me that he was asking about me and told her he liked me. The problem is, we only see each other in a group with our common friend and others I don't know so well. This friend is very conservative and I'm not truly myself around her because of it - there's a lot I won't talk about and so I think this guy is getting the wrong idea of what I'm like. The last time I saw him on the weekend he seemed a lot less interested in me. It's a real shame because I think we'd get on so well together (not that I know heaps about him, but there seems to be potential). I know the obvious thing is to meet him one on one, but it would seem forced and desperate to me to organize that now, plus I don't have his phone number... Reply to this Question Share |

Perhaps you could poke around and find where he works, or hangs out, then casually show up there. Do the ole "fancy meeting you here" routine, and take it from there.
Maybe he's thinking the same things that you are, and you're both afraid to make the first move.
Hope this helps.
