Search Results: why you should ask out a shy guy

A couple of weeks my friends and I got into this debate on whether this guy likes me or not.

I truly think he does like me but sometimes I'm not entirely sure, he's not exactly shy and I feel like if he wanted to ask me out he would've. But my friends keep telling me that its part of his "plan" and it's his "mechanism".

I met him almost three months ago and we immediately hit it off, during this summer we've texted almost everyday and phone called each other a pretty decent amount. We talk on the phone for hours mostly late at night until like the sun rises. We talk about anything, mostly funny random topics or what happened during the day. Sometimes we tease each other and call each other names or tell one another to get professional help. Lol.

However, that wasn't the real reason why every single one of my friends started believing he liked me. It was because recently he invited me to a party and a few of his friends. My friends said that they weren't invited and it was weird because they were not only friends with him longer but went to high school with them. (We're in college).

But that wasn't all, he invited me to this party and ended up having to change the times because he was told last minute he had to work. I told him it was cool because parties are better at night anyways. So he changed it but ended up having to cancel all together because he wasn't going to get home until REALLY late. So I was like its okay but he felt REALLY bad and told me he'd make it up to me.

Which he did a few days later, he knew I wanted to try his food so he cooked me three full trays of it and brought it to my house as an apology. He had to leave right after because it was really late at night and he had to go.

So my best friends and their boyfriends constantly tell me that he really digs me because no guy would slave in a kitchen for hours for some girl they just met two-three months ago unless there was something there or invite her to his house for a party with HIS friends. Not to mention talk everyday and call each other all the time.

I'm a little on the fence but I sort of believe them. What do you guys think? Do you think he likes me or no?

Please Read :)

I am well aware he is VERY shy around girls, cause he has no experience with girls, cause he graduated from an all boy highschool. My friend sat on the same table as him once, and he and his friends didn't speak even a word. And he only hangs out with his group of guy friends 24/7.

But I thought he was interested in me cause I saw him staring at me, a lot. So I decided to make a move, and added him on facebook and started chatting him. But the problem is,

- I always start the converstation, and he never messages me first
- his replies are generally very short
- he only asks me questions back sometimes

But the reasons why I keep trying:

- he declined all 3 of my friends requests, but accepted me
- he consistently replies
- he replies really fast now

If he was not interested would he reply me for 2 weeks? Should I just ask him out?
