I known a guy since Kindergarden. We reconnected back in 2010 a while back. Every now and then we talk. Last time we talked was early Mar. I like him because of the fact that I gotten to know him as a grown man and I lke who he turned out to be. But I don't know if it's a good idea or not? I don't wanna risk it a friendship so please help me with this 1 male and females. If I should mention he's always making the 1st message.
here are a few thoughts on your situation:
- You've known this dude for a long time, so you already have a foundation of familiarity and trust built up. That's awesome.
- It can be risky changing a friendship to something romantic since that changes the dynamic. But it could also be really awesome if you guys ended up liking each other like that.
- I'd say go for it if you feel you've developed real feelings beyond just being pals. Life's too short not to take a chance on something that could make you happy, you know?
- If you do want to ask him out, maybe start small and casual, like "Hey we should get dinner and catch up sometime, just the two of us." See how he reacts before fully labeling it a "date."
- Reassure him your friendship means a lot either way. That takes pressure off in case he's not feeling it. But it seems like he likes talking to you!
- Worst thing he can say is no. But sounds like you've got a good chance. You miss 100% of the shots you don't take, right? Go for it girl, you got this!
