Is he uninterested? Or just shy to go out together alone?

Question - (29 December 2010) 3 Answers - (Newest, 29 December 2010)
A female United States age 30-35, anonymous writes:

So I'll try to make it short. I met a guy at my uni, and instantly we found a lot in common, talked a lot and stuff...I really started to like him, and overall I'm a shy person, but he seems to be pretty reserved too, even though he's kind of sociable.

He's showed slight signs of interest: He danced with me for about an hour at a party, he suggested we hang out sometime, and he often comes to sit next to me in class.

Now that it's the holidays and we're both back in our hometowns, which are close by the way, I texted him and suggested we go out sometime. He was okay with it and all, then he texted me "Are you going to be bring a friend or is it going to be the two of us?" And I said that I don't know if any of my friends will be available, but he can tell his if he wants (meh, big mistake). He texted "It's okay, let's go together..." and everything was fine until today, when he texted and asked if it would be okay if one of his friends came as well.

Meh. Do you think this could mean he's not interested in me or that maybe he's kind of shy to go out together alone? I really like him and it's stressing me out...

If he is a nice guy as you say, it is possible that some friend of his simply invited himself and forced your guy to take him along, just so that he could see you. Nice guys find it hard to say "no". You must clearly tell your guy to come alone, end of story. He will most probably be mighty relieved and happy!

well it does seem like he is a bit shy you said he seemed reserved but still likes to socialize. i think he invited his friend along just to take some the pressure of himself. he might be nervous because he has never hungout with you by himself, and if he is shy he's probably worried that he will run out of things to say, hence inviting a friend for support. when you guys hangout give him some signs that you do like him: stand/sit next to him, make eye contact, laugh at his jokes(even if they're not that funny) he should get the idea. good luck, hope this helped, and give an update if you can

Don't you just hate situations like that? He is probably having the exact same doubts and questions about you. Does she like me just as a friend or is she interested in something more? Why did she mention bringing a friend? She probably wouldn't have said that if she wanted to be alone with me. So, the only thing you can do right now is go out with him and his friend, but next time make sure it is just the two of you. Good luck!
