Met a guy through mutual friends, he kept looking over until I gave him a big smile & he came over. Next day he adds me to Facebook (lol, I know) and we get chatting. I tell him I'm going to an event I think would interest him & ask if he wants to come - he says he'd love to and so we go together. Have a great time, spend hours talking and he insists on paying for everything. He did mention he is very shy but trying to overcome this a day at a time.
We talk every day until he invites me to another event. I notice he's started given me this starry eyed look whenever we chat and he always looks at me when others are talking in the group. Again he stays close to me all night and my mind is blown when he tells me 4 hours has passed already. I have to say he gives me the kind of
'look' only long terms bf have given me in the past but I don't want to read too much into it.
Now he's invited me to an event in a week's time but now I have no idea if we have become friends or if there's romantic potential. He hasn't tried to kiss me. I looped my arm through his as we walked around & he seemed happy about it. He leaned in close and kept his arm pressed against mine for about 5 mins on our last date. But he hasn't said he's into me although he pays me compliments.
I'd like to hold his hand or make a move to kiss him but I don't want to completely misread the signs and lose a friend. Help me figure out what to do?
