I feel like a 12 year old so perhaps that's my AIBU
But I'm so confused so need your opinions please.
I dated a guy last year for 4 months.
We broke up over not much really but coincided with him having huge work stress so we never really had a proper conversation and parted ways.
I texted to wish him a happy NY and we texted each other occasionally and since summer
more frequently.
We went out for drinks in August had a great time. We really get on well. He came back to mine and we carried on drinking , chatting, laughing etc. we talk about everything BUT never about us / our feelings for each other.
He stayed the night. We kissed which was just how I remembered. He's the only man I've ever really enjoyed kissing. I would need tire of kissing him.
Anyway we shared a bed but didn't sleep together. he would have done, but I couldn't because I'd been so upset if he then walked away and no we didn't have the conversation.
A few weeks later we were texting and in conversation it came up where he said I was a gorgeous woman. I thought he was joking as he's never said that before. I didn't think he was that attracted to me.
He was shocked as said he had told me that before. He then tried to arrange meeting for drinks but I got flu and although I tried to rearrange we haven't.
I'm moving house now and I've never done this on my own so it's a bit daunting and he said he'd help me and he's been wonderful.
last week I met him at a viewing and it was so nice. We hugged about 5 times. We said goodbye and hugged then carried on chatting then hugged again then chatted then hugged.
We're meeting again for another viewing. I don't know what to think.
I think he's being kind and wants to help and I think he thinks im attractive but isn't attracted to me. If he were then surely he'd be asking me out.
I'm so confused. I know I should probably just ask him but it feels awkward and I suppose I don't want to be rejected at least this way I think there's hope 🤦🏻♀️
Do you think he likes likes me or is he just being a good friend and what would you do?
