His sibling (my friend) said this other guy was keen! I assume the guy I like has been trying to set us both up. I met the friend vaguely and while he’s really funny he’s not massively my type! This makes it worse. He’s def not interested is he haha - oh welll

The friend has again been using social media to its intended effect - the guy I like has been tagging (funny) posts of mine with friend’s name so hardly discouraging it

I think that you need to think of a reason to get the conversation going with him.. you don’t have to be blatant about how you feel but just something to build on. The direction the conversation takes will imo tell you what you need to know! That’s what I’d do!
Good luck!

Speak to your friend about whether she would be ok with you getting together, if that happens.

Then speak to him and ask him out. If your friend is ok with it. If she isn't, could he be 'the one' and decide whether it's worth risking your friendship.

If you don't ask, you don't get. She/he can only say no. You'll never know if you don't ask.

Personally, I think life is too short and we need to grab our chances when they present themselves. So, if he makes you feel how you've said, I'd say go for it.
