And throughout the school year we developed somewhat of a friendship (as in we sat/talked to each other everyday) but to me (and it still does...it felt not like a conventional friendship.) At any rate, my question is coming up I promise... on the last day of class I waited for him outside of the lecture hall to bid him a goodbye and tell him I enjoyed his company. Towards the end of the quarter I was ready to abandon my sentiments for him, I mean I fancied him a lot, but I feel that often times when you like someone that it distorts the real situation. Well much to my surprise, during our goodbyes he asked me for my number. Is this a sign of interest from his part?The real bummer part of the situation is that because he practically surprised me by wanting to keep contact. I forgot to ask him for his, and now I know somewhere out there he has my number. It's been about five days since this happened, and I have yet to receive any calls or texts. I know he's shy...but perhaps he doesn't like me?

So after obtaining it I am almost inclined to just text him to see how he's doing.

reader, anonymous, writes (2 June 2010): Hmm, well I wouldn't give up hope just yet! The fact that he asked for your number indicates to me that he is interested in you. Especially if he is as shy as you say he is, that was quite a big thing to do! But maybe he doesn't want to come across as being too keen, or scare you off? Some people worry that if they contact someone right away, it will seem a bit over-eager. Or maybe he is nervous and is not sure what to say.
Is there any way for you to contact him? Do you know where he lives, or any of his friends? If you still haven't heard from him in about a weeks time, if it is possible maybe you could try and contact him, or pass a message on to him, just incase he has lost your number or something. Other than that...I guess there isn't much you can do, except carry on with your life. Try not to feel too down though if he fails to contact you. It happens sometimes, so don't take it personally. In the meantime, try and just carry on with your usual stuff, don't put your life on hold for him. Good luck. x
