DMFParadox -> RE: more of an "ask a guy" thing... (10/30/2010 10:44:49 PM)

Best to assume he's interested in more than friends and act on it. Such assumptions can make their own reality. As can their opposite. Flirt more. He could need a clue. If you've got a friends vibe going on, it's possible he's been conditioned to just not push that. Or it could be performance anxiety. The whole 'going at his prompting, i have not asked him out' thing is a possible clue. If you haven't initiated anything, it sometimes scares a guy off, because if he makes a pass and it's not followed through by you then further attempts may just land him further into the friend zone. Not suggesting this is what you're doing, but theoretically - The way you talk to him, if you're flippant or hazing him conversationally... you could see it as an invitation for him to push back, but he's seeing it as warning signals that you're just hanging with him because no better options are available. Of course if I were talking to him, I'd tell him to man the fuck up. But since it's you, all I can suggest is that you try to be inviting with your language and tone, and let nature take its course. Or you could just kiss him. But that'd break The Rules, can't have that, can we?
