Question - (12 January 2011) 4 Answers - (Newest, 13 January 2011)
A female Philippines age 36-40, anonymous writes:

i am a nurse and i have a crush in the same hospital i work. almost all nurses who knows me in the hospital knows i have a crush on him. at first, he kept smiling at me whenever he sees me. one night, i was so surprised when he texted me,.. he told me he asked my number from a common friend.. and we texted that day.. the next day i was the one who text him first.. and the succeeding days... problem is, when i dont text him for 3 days.. he doesnt text me at all.. and sometimes.. he falls asleep during our texting sessions.. and if ever we text.. im the one who keeps asking questions to keep on with the conversation.. he also asked me multiple favors.. if a boy likes a girl, i think he will somehow be shy to ask favor from the girl he likes.. am i right? so he doesnt like me at all? will i text him again first? or will i forget him?

or will i try to make a move?

eddie85 agony auntQuit worrying about what other people are saying. Either you've got the nuts to call him and set something up or you don't.

Why not ask him out for coffee or grab lunch together. Keep it casual and get to know the guy and see if is right for you.

He sounds like an introvert, so you may have to be a bit more aggressive in your tactics if you want to get a date with him.

This is verified as being by the original poster of the question

i heard from everyone that he is the guy that doesnt give any move if he likes the girl. i had heard about his past where he fell in love with a nurse also in the hospital but he hasnt done any move to court her, so she dump him... he is the confusing guy type.. does he even at least like me? should i continue communicating? how can i ask him to go out with me? ;(

eddie85 agony auntIt's pretty obvious that you guys have started something. I think it's time to graduate from texting to actually talking.

Personally, I think texting is for simple things "Honey, can you pick up a gallon of milk on the way home" or "I'll be 15 minutes late" But initiating a potential dating situation or learning about someone? Isn't that what teens do?

It's time you take it to the next level. Give the guy a call and talk via voice. That way you can sense his interest in you. Perhaps set up a low key date and leave your phones at home. Only by doing that will you learn whether this guy has interest in you and whether you have any chemistry.

My advice: leave the texting for the high schoolers and meet face to face.

Bring up your fears with him over text since that is how he is comfortable responding and so he can get back to you when he feels most comfortable and less threatened.
