A female Canada age 30-35, anonymous writes:

a few months back i ran into an old high school crush. he was quite friendly, and gave me sight reason to believe he had been creeping my facebook profile. we had a short, but great conversation considering we hadn't seen each other since high school. we've been out for 2 years. i was in a relationship at the time, but i found myself feeling interested in him. i put that aside though, obviously because i was in a relationship. that relationship recently ended and i find myself still interested. i've always been very attracted to him, and he's always been friendly with me. i've made several attempts to run into him, to no avail. at this point the only shot to have is to contact him... i feel like i have zero excuses to contact him. i'm not sure what i should do. should i just forget about it? if i message him straight up and just say, "hey, wanna hang out sometime?" its weird because it's like, where did that interest come from? but if i just casually start a conversation by saying hello, that doesn't really make much sense either. i just feel like i'm stuck in an awkward spot because i went to school, and know all his friends, no well enough to get help from them, and it's not like it's been 10 years and i'm messaging out of the blue to catch up. i'm not sure how i can go about this... i don't feel confident enough to just ask him on a date... at all. i feel really stuck.

mwarren agony auntSend him a message on FB, tell him you saw his name pop up and you were thinking about him and decided to send him a message, Just ask him how he is doing and what has he been up to. He will reply and you can start slowly with messaging and see where it goes. You dont have to be blunt and ask him out. Start talking slowly and you will see if there is interest
