Should I still ask him straightforward?

Question - (17 September 2007) 4 Answers - (Newest, 17 September 2007)
A female United States age 41-50, anonymous writes:

I've met this guy about a month ago, and we've been hanging out about 10 times. Last week we started holding hands and kissing. When I'm with him I feel that he likes me but he's never said he likes me or any of his feelings. So I remain silent, too. I don't know what he really thinks about me, but when we don't see each other he rarely texts me. He also never says that he misses me.

I want to ask him how he feels but I don't want to sound clingy or pushy. Should I still ask him straightforward?

I was in a similar situation when I was aged about 15!

I always used to walk her home after church, me on one side of my pushbike, she on the other. I was shy. She was my first girlfriend. She was shy. I was her first boyfriend. We never held hands, probably because as well as the shyness, the bike got in the way.

Anyway, if I knew then what I know now, I'd have left the bike at home and we could have been somewhat more romantic. I wanted to hold her hand, and, as I found out years later, she wanted to hold mine. Talk about wasted opportunities!!

So - say what you're thinking and get him to do the same. Be honest with each other. He's not a mind reader and neither are you. You might be surprised at how your relationship could develop if you open up to each other.

i think u should ask him out straight. i too am in a similar situtaion. but the guy i love has only kissed me once. we too hardly ever meet but also say to each to meet up. he rarely texts me now, i feel we become a bit distant. the next time u see him or contact him, and he does anything u feel that only a boyfriend should, have it out with him, dont leave it for too long!

but let me warn you i know this may seem blunt and sometimes the truth hurts, but this is what someone said to me about the guy i like, thats maybe he is just an overfriendly guy!!

what ever it is or isnt clear it up and ask him

hope this helps

xxx good luck xxx

L.O.S.E.R. agony auntWait for a while longer.I know plenty of guys acting like him and it's not cause they don't like a girl,it's just some macho trip they have.Guess that holding hands is a good sign.Be patient for a month more and then ask him if he doesn't improve till then.xo
