A female , anonymous writes:

I like this guy and he is really easy to talk to and we get on really well but we don't see each other very often. I have a ball coming up and he has helped me out with stuff for it and I was going to ask him to go with me. We are really good friends and hang around in the same group and we are going to be seeing each other a lot more soon because he's moving jobs. And I don't want to compromise anything or anyone else for something that may come to nothing.

What should I do?

Thanks for the advice. I asked him to come to the ball. It's this Friday. and we're just going as friends. The main trouble now is that he is IMPOSSIBLE to read. Even friends of his who have known him since school say it. So subtly finding out what he is thinking is dificult. But I'm trying!!!

okay, firstly, you need to 'subtly' try and find out if this guy likes you because if he dosen't and he figures out that you like him then he could get nervous around you.

If he doesnt then ask him to go as a friend. If he does then i say ask him but take things slowly. Its true that the friendship could go wrong if the relationship ends badly or doesnt start, but then friendships can go wrong for any number of reasons - one of which could be if you say nothing to him and then end up acting different around him and not being yourself around him for liking him. Good Luck!!
