Search Results: dropping hints

Last summer I became friends with a co-worker at our summer job. Our friendship started when he would invite me to work events with his other friend, or along with them to lunch. We started going to lunch nearly every day, and went out after work sometimes for dinner and drinks - with our mutual friend. He always wound up sitting near me, offering me a taste of his drink, and asking about "cute" things that has happened to me romantically in the past. We had semi-flirtatious conversations involving biting, "enjoying the pain", he said "so do I" when I said someone told me they liked my ass, etc. Over the school year we lost touch - he told me that he got very busy and that he'd try and be at the next summer event, and has been emailing me at work often. We even had a conversation that led to me asking if he wanted me to show him how his anatomy worked, to which he said "sure" and then we discussed how he has something in common with the show Dexter: the sex life. However, when I sent him a message later saying if he wanted to casually show me, I'd be down to see the Dexter lifestyle in a non-murderous way, he didn't respond at all. I sort of thought he was sometimes dropping hints of a sexual interest, but now I don't know.

I'm not sure if he's uninterested or what - although he has almost always been the worst at responding to texts within a few days - or if I should have been clearer.

So uhh... long story short. This guy who I like (he has a gf so I'd rather stay friends not admit it) has helped me in a dark period of my life. I was suicidal back then. What he did for me was one of the things that helped me move forward. In a way, it was one of the things, (he was one of the ppl) that saved my life. The problem, is... he's not admitting about what he did. (I'm pretty sure he wants to be humble... that's what I think.) I try to lure him into the convo, dropping hints, but he claims that he's "confused" or "lost". So the next time I see him (which is tomorrow) I'm just going to come right and say it. I'm going to say how much he means to me and how much of an impact he has made to me. He's one of the reasons why I'm happy and healthy today. I might go overboard, he might feel... well... I don't know how he might feel.

It might get emotional and creepy but it FEELS so right. He needs to know. Don't know why he doesn't admit it but this NEEDS to happen. Should I be brave or not take a risk?

I feel like I need to. It would be healthier. I'm tired of living in a shell.

Again, I'm not going to say I have a romantic interest in him... would it be noticeable? Eh, whatever. I need to get it out, he needs to know, it needs to happen.

I've liked this guy since February. He is in my group of friends and we have gotten a little closer. I made him a CD of songs I figured he would like. He loved it! He actually asked for another one. I already made it but I haven't seen him in a week. A lot of girls like him, I just don't know how to make myself seem special. I MIGHT paint him something, but I feel like I will seem desperate. If I do a painting should I give some to other friends too so he doesn't seem TOO special. I do enjoy painting though! I just want to make myself seem special. He teases me but he does that to everyone. He just picks on me for stupid shit. Like the way I look around a room. He said he likes me. He didn't mean it in a like like way. He actually was saying he hates my cousin, but likes me. Our groups usually hangs out once a week, just random times. What can I do to make a good impression? I thought about putting cute, hint-dropping songs on his CD. I don't really know what to do. Help me out!
