Question - (20 July 2011) 1 Answers - (Newest, 21 July 2011)
A female United Kingdom age 26-29, anonymous writes:

I'm best friends with this guy and he says he feels really awkward around girls (even me to an extent) but you'd never know it. I really want us to meet up in summer because we are doing a project which means we would have to meet up at mine or his to practice music. Because of his insecurities though we've never been to each others houses and he keeps making really lame (and sometimes kinda mean) excuses not to meet up. It's really annoying me, we have another band member but we have to go a couple of weeks without him, which means he can't help. Is there anyway I can arrange something without him making excuses or feeling awkward?

SweetSmoochy agony auntCall him on it. Tell him you feel like he is avoiding working with you and ask why. Try not to be accusatory and be really gentle when you ask him this.

If he doesn't really say much when you ask, tell him you understand if he feels a little awkward around you, but he really doesn't have to. You guys are just good friends. Just keep it very friendly and safe so he knows you are one girl he can be relaxed around.
