Search Results: how to read a shy guy

So i’ve been hanging out with a friend group, i’ve always liked this one guy in the group but we’re both pretty shy and its hard to read him so i don’t wanna make the first move. Recently we went to the beach with some of his closer friends and 2 of our mutual friends and everyone had a few drinks. The guy i like wasn’t feeling too good so he went to rest on a bench. Me and one of his friends ended up talking about him and he was telling me all this stuff about how great and smart he is but he lacks confidence. how he needed a girl to just give him a little boost. his friend was pretty intoxicated but this was the first time we had a conversation longer than a minute. after that we went to go check up on him and his other friend told me to sit next to him and rub his back because he wasn’t feeling too good and he needed some affection. The whole day i felt like they were trying to suggest something but i’m not sure if it was just the alcohol.

By the way i would make the guy meet me at my college (a public place). The reasons why im questioning this is because 1. When my dad found out that i was going to meet a guy i met online in college he yelled at me was disappointed in me and treated me horribly even though he is usually like a best friend to me my parents say that i am too naive and sex trafficking is common in this state. 2. I only gave one person a chance on the dating app he created a Snapchat To talk to me , i talked to him everyday for about two weeks and he told me that we would meet up he ditched me the first time and then rescheduled (i was supposed to meet him today) and then just yesterday he ended up unfriending me out of nowhere and sending me this text.

I had a really bad feeling that he would ditch me again and i was afraid of that happening again but this was probably worse. The thing is i am sensitive and I don’t want to get hurt should i still try dating apps? Because i’m really shy in real life and i’m very Lonely this time I'm going to put that I don't want someone who will waste my time. I’m also a little scared about how my parents will react they already started comparing me to my cousin who is promiscious ( I’m not i’m very shy) and my dad didn’t even speak to me when he came back from work. This made me very sad i spent a while crying last night but now i think i feel a little better i’m still a little embarrassed though because i was arguing with my mom and dad to let me meet him but he still bailed on me
