A female United States age 51-59, *ove sucks! writes:

There's this guy I'm really interested in being with, not right now cause I'm not ready. The thing is he's like my brother's best friend and I don't know if I'd be his type or not, but he's really hot and I could see it really going somewhere with us. Any advice on this one anyone? I don't wanna ask him out but I need him to know I've been interested in him for a while now.

O Connor agony auntthis is really confusing, you want him to know you like him, but you want him to know you dont want to be with him?? your in your 30's, do you not see how immature this sounds? whats the point of letting him know if nothing is going to happen? wait until your ready and then let him know, if you do it now, wat is he supposed to do with that info?

I don't get this either. What is the point of letting him know if you aren't ready?

I think I'm just a little confused here. Let me get this straight - there's your brother, his best friend and this other guy who is like your brother's best friend?

No two people are the same but if this guy is similar to your brother's best friend, and you like your brother's best friend, and assuming they all know each other why not tell your brother or his best friend to drop a hint to this guy on your behalf?

Frank B Kermit agony auntIt sounds like you are playing games, and getting off on the drama of it all.

I think you just want to use him for attention. Why on earth would you want him to know you are into him, but not date him? What point could there be, other than you just want to see if he likes you back (which would be a great ego boost for you no doubt) but since you don't want to date him, it seems you just want to use his male attention to fuel your own drama. That's wrong.

Unless you want to date him, don't tease him with telling him you are liking him. He won't find it cute. Assuming he is in your age group, he will come to resent the game you are playing, and rightly so.
