Does he fancy her?

One of my best friends has a male friend she has known for a few years.
He is a nice man and I know him really
well (they met through me and H we are close friends)
He is extremely kind to her and tends to generally bend over backwards for her.
He picks her up for their bowls club 45mins out of his way, gives her freebies from the snack bar there, hands her things is generally super helpful never says no to her no matter what she asks and genuinely seems to dote on her.
They have mirror personalities often spend time there heads together giggling, bantering and spend a lot of time socialising together when the club put on social activities but rarely see each-other outside of bowls. Other blokes there do tend to fawn over her as she is such a lovely person and it seems to genuinely upset him he doesnt get mad or anything just looks a little sad.
She is single and would like to date and she does like him and has thought of getting together with him but she is hesitant to ask him and because he is 16yrs older (shes 50 he is 66) she just seems to think its club banter that makes it appear so but
from his behaviour I think there is more on his part he hasn't said anything to me or H about liking her but does mention her a lot in conversation.
What do others think? They do seem to be a good match!

I think I would encourage her to ask him to dinner or a drink and see what happens. It’s hard to tell without actually seeing them together. He may like her or he may just be a really nice man, being kind to another person.

All she can do is put herself out there to see!
