A female United States age 30-35, anonymous writes:

I've been friends with this guy ever since middle school and have just realized that I really like him as more than just a friend. He doesn't know how I feel and I'm not sure if he feels the same way. We haven't hung out for quite a while now as he is always working and I'm in my first year of college.

We started talking online and say hi when I stop to buy something at the store but that's about it. I have noticed him look my way several times and he seems kind of quiet when I see him. I have tried to hang out with him but he forgets or has to work and he doesn't usually return my phone calls but he will reply to messages on myspace. I want to tell him but it's impossible to hang out and I wanted to talk to him in person as I am shy and don't do very well talking on the phone. I don't know what I should do. please help me.

you should tell him how you feel. he can't read your mind so he won't know if you don't tell him. as for him always having an excuse when you try to hang out,he could just be nervous if it's just the two of you hanging out. i doubt he's playing you considering that he'll talk to you online. guys tend to forget things a lot easier than us girls do. he's probably waiting for you to make the first move. believe it or not guys are usually just as scared and nervous as we are even though they don't want to admit it. i would say that you both need some time and space before you tell him how you feel that way you both can figure out how you feel and what you really want because you don't want to ruin your friendship.

thanks for the advice.

i was wondering if there might be some ways to tell if he's really into me or not. i sent him a message on myspace inviting him to a party. he said he'd like to go but never told me if he was definitely going or not. a friend of mine called the night of the party to see if he was going to come and he said he had to work the next day so he wasn't going to come. he always seems to have an excuse when i try to hang out. is he playing me or could there be something elese going on? i'd really appreciate it if i could get more advice as i'm still very confused.

Moviefan agony auntWow have i been in his spot, im normally kind of shy, and when i like someone i become very shy until i am around them a lot and am kind of forced to stop being shy. So it really sounds like he likes you because he is being shy but will talk to you on myspace. And he is looking your way and says nothing. Make the first move, because if you dont he may not. If he is like me he wont make a first move unless he has sudden stroke of courage to do so which is common when i like someone but several of my friends, not so much.

So yeah chances are he likes you so make a move, try to live life without regret. At least if you make a move you can say you tried and you wont think about the fact that you will never know if he would of said yes, and if u would of been happy. I had to realize this a bit late, dont be like me.

Good Luck!

he seems shy but honestly all the tells are there looking your way and being quiet when your around cause you probly make hime nervous your best bet is telling him how you feel and asking him how he feels if you both feel the same you can explore having a relationship time does seem to be a problem but it seems like its just cause your both kind of busy if you really feel this way both of you need to find the time to explore this
