Why doesn't he want to go out???

Ok so there is this guy.......

I met him about 6 months ago...let me set it up for you. My friend from highschool invited me to go out of town and party for her boyfriends birthday. Cool I went expected to have a good time. Well it turns out that she invited this guy she knew. He was ok looking....he was nice to me. Well once I started drinking he got to be very friendly. But don't worry I can handle myself. He was nice the whole night and he bought me a bunch of drinks. I think I spent like 5 bucks the whole night. I thought that was pretty cool. Then when we were gettng ready to go to sleep we got to talking. Keep in mind I am still kinda drunk. He was just asking me questions about me, like where I go to school, what my major is, if I had a boyfriend. Then he started to tell me about him....he is 26 im 23, he didn't go to school but he wanted to be a fireman and no girlfriend....every girlfriend he ever had cheated on him. Well first of all he is totaly not my type. I just never pictured myself marring a fireman, policeman, or military man. It's just too dangerous.....I would worry all the time. No to mention I didn't find him that atractive. So by this time it's really late and I'm ready for bed. Then he starts to try and hold my hand and get close to me. I just moved away and ignored him, pretended I was going to sleep. Well he wouldn't leave me alone so I ended up moving. Then we came back home and said good bye.

About a week later when I'm out I see him again and say hi. He seemed really interested in me and I was thinking he is not so bad. You know you can't help who you fall in love with.

So it's 6 months later and I find him on myspace and ask him to be my friend. We start exchanging messages and eventually numbers. He calls me and we have been talking on the phone everyday for about a month. The wierd thing is that he has not asked me out. I'm going against my better judgement and I'm giving him a chance. All my friends say he is not good enough for me. But I don't really care about that stuff. I just want someone to hang with and to care about me. So we haven't gone out since the first time we met. Why is that??? I'm pretty sure he does not have a girlfriend. And it's not like he is nervous about meeting me because we have already met. So what is it??? It seems like he is into me. Why wouldn't he want to go out? Unless he is hiding something, but thats the only thing I can think of.

I don't know! I think it's best not to push it. You never know, he may be trying to get over a hard time, relationship, etc. Give it more time. What have you got to loose? Randy

Give it more time? No not the answer. Have you ever thought about asking him out? Do you think maybe he picked up on your vibe the first night and thinks you are not interrested in him? Guys are not as stupid as we think they are.

So you are to shy to ask him out on a one on one. Ask your friend and her man to go shoot pool or something. Don't just sit around waiting. That is what I would do. You don't know that tomorrow will ever come and he may still be thinking ehh Im not her type so why bother. Just ask the worst thing that can happen is he say no. Atleast you will know you gave it a shot. It is better to try and fail than not to try at all... Thats my 2 cents...
