Question - (6 September 2009) 3 Answers - (Newest, 6 September 2009)
A female South Africa age 41-50, *3 Angel writes:

Hi guys. If you've read my previous question, you'll know about this guy who I met for coffee and we ended up kissing. I've "known" him for about a year 1/2 and my perception of him is he is shy and a bit of a loner. He's quite nice looking (to me at least) and I've always thought at the back of my mind I'm not in his league. I've always been friendly to him and we chat at times, but NEVER did I ever think he would show any interest in me. He has been the one to approach me every time. And I always wait for him to say hello first.

After the day we kissed, he asked that I meet up with him again, but if I wasn't at our meeting place the next day, he would understand that I'm not interested. The following day I got caught up with clients and couldn't meet up with him (not for anything other than a chat to see if things could progress). He wasn't at work for two days and when I did see him again, we chatted but not about what happened.

Again, I feel like he's thinking I'm not interested and the following week he was quite aloof towards me.

What bugs me is that I really think I like him, but obviously I'm also a bit aloof as he seems distant as well. Whenever I see him I greet and smile at him, so does he, but it seems like I'm the one who's got the problem now of not being able to stop thinking about him and wanting to see him again.

Guys, if you are attracted to someone and would like to spend time together, surely you ask for their number and try to communicate with her, not just on the off chance of seeing that person when you are in the same place at the same time!

How would I know if I screwed up my chances and if he is interested? My first impression of this was that it was a booty call, but now I'm not so sure. I think I don't trust guys intensions and always think the worst!

I really can't stop thinking about the "what ifs" and it makes it hard to forget him as I do see him from time to time in our building.

Please help!!! I can't go on like this! I am too embarrassed and shy to confront him about it.

Hi guys. Thanks so much for your replies.

I'll have to take a chance when I see him and broach the subject, not sure how so any tips would be VERY helpful!

I also don't know if he really likes me though! He was a bit funny to me when I saw him last on Friday and I felt like he couldn't get away from me.

I'll have to see what happens and take that chance!

Thanks again and looking forward to any tips you might have to approach him again!

Ciao!

I don't think you've blown it. He probably does think that you are not interested. I think that if you like this guy you should ask him out and see what he says. Keep it casual maybe suggest meeting up for coffee or something.

Good luck.
