reader, anonymous, writes (22 December 2010): Why not try taking things more slowly? If you are scared of being rejected by him, maybe you could avoid asking if he would like to go out with you, and just try and start a conversation. If you haven't spoken to each other for a long time, he may seem to ignore you because he may not know you would like to get to know him. Maybe he feels ignored too? But I think it might be a bit too forward to ask him out if you don't even talk. Maybe you could go up to him and say that, since you haven't spoken for such a long time, you were wondering how he is doing. Or maybe you could suggest going for a drink of coffee or something for a catch-up. It would break the ice, get you talking again, and open the way for things to possibly develop. And if he doesn't seem interested, at least you will know.
