Shy man ( I think)

[ithastobedone]

Sorry to be a name changer. Not for any other reason than, I feel a bit of a twerp TBH.

Simple question really.

How best to let a bloke know that you fancy him? I have known him as a friend for years- it's come as a bit of a surprise to me even. When we are together socially we talk a lot and get along really well and he'll very often hug me.

I'm so out of the dating loop but we're both free; I think he likes me but he is very shy and I don't want to freak him out. What would you say to let him know?

Is it really daft to send him an email because I couldn't possibly bring myself to phone him.

He lives far enough away that I could avoid him if I make a complete arse of myself.

Thanks Hedley

I'm off out now for a while to tell some rl friends!

Aww, what a lovely response! Hope your date goes well.

Oh this is just lovely :)

He does sound nice, your reply was perfect too.

We will of course need a progress report on your date, including, if possible, flow charts and diagrams :)

woohooooooo!

That's a perfect response .

Nice level response. Great!

Well done!

awww good news :)
...and good luck then.

Aww, that's such a lovely reply from him

I bet you've had a big smile on your face since getting it :)

Ipad2 info

when you have the keyboard up on screen default is normal keyboard. Press the button for the numbers screen. On the second row up at either side is a button for #+=. Use that to get another sets of buttons. Simples

Great news! I'm in a similar situation - someone I've known as a friend for over 25 yrs ... We're both now free .... But a lot to risk - eek. I draw courage from your great example ithastobedone - well done you!

I'm really happy.I had a good feeling about it all anyway,and as an askee myself I thinks its worth the risk.After all,we expect men to risk humiliation and rebuffs all the time. Very pleased for you and looking forward to the updates! He sounds lovey btw,I like shy men.

Thanks ineedofbody transplant ipad2 asterik tip which I have just used for first time. Great.

Ithastobedone Just read your thread and wanted to say how pleased I am for you. It was very brave of you to take the chance and I'm so happy you got the response you were looking for.

All the best and be sure to keep us updated!

Great news. :)

How long is he working in London OP? [sorry, just need to diarise checking this thread ]

Bloody marvellous

I didn't ask how long he'll be 'tied up' with work and he didn't say. He lives in London so I take that as meaning he's got a lot on ATM. I think he's quite senior in his role and maybe busy.

Anyway, I'm not fretting and I like the fact he's behaving very casually about it all because it won't be an act!!! I'll definitely give him a reminder if he lets it slide too long!

I hope to see him in the next few weeks
