Search Results: weird guy questions

I've been debating this for a while, and I wondered if maybe seeing the opinions of others would help me make a decision. I've been quarantining with a small group of friends since the virus shut everything down, and one of them I've taken... quite the liking to. We haven't hung out much, but every time the group gets together we seem to talk to each other the most. I want to make a move, and I am DEFINITELY going to. I'm just wondering if I should make it now, or wait until we've spent some more time together to ask for one-on-one time.

To add some detail:
I don't even have his phone number, snapchat, anything. The only way I have to contact him privately is his discord, since we share a friend server. Half the time it's hard to tell if he's interested or just funny/nice, and because of this combination of things I'm a little bit unsure if it's too early to make a move. When we hang out, we joke around and tease each other a lot, but as far as I can tell he doesn't treat me that much differently from any of the other guys in the group (one of which has a girlfriend). I know he loves cooking, and I've been considering asking him if he would be okay with showing me how to prepare some dishes, since that seems like a fun first date/way to get to know each other. But I wonder if it's too intimate/weird to ask someone I haven't spent much alone time with? What do you guys think?

(Bonus question-- should I ask him over discord or IRL? Asking him irl makes me nervous considering it would probably be in front of our other friends, but it IS usually considered the better choice...)

Right before quarantine, matched with a guy on tinder, and got to go on a coffee date, we hit it off right away and there was a lot of chemistry. After the first date, he seemed very interested on seeing me again and asked me several times but we never got the chance because my country went on mandatory lockdown very soon after. At first, we kept texting like normal, but as the quarantine prolonged we started talking less and less. After about a week of not talking, I texted him and he genuinely seemed happy to hear from me (he mostly replies by sending voice notes so I can tell when he's laughing or smiling when we talk). The problem is that after a week of texting he just stopped responding (he had asked me a question and I answered and asked something back, and he hasn't even opened that message), and since I'm a very prideful person, I didn't try to reach out again. About a week later he was looking through my Instagram profile and he accidentally liked a picture from a year ago and later texted me "sorry, didn't mean to like that picture". I told him no worries but he didn't respond to that either. Its been a couple of weeks since then. I'm honestly not reaching out because I prefer to get to know him in person, and I think there's no point in texting him again if we can't meet up. For now, I'm going to focus on myself and forget about this situation but my question here is, when this is all over and we are allowed to go out and meet up again, would it be weird if I texted him out of the blue again to see if he wants to hang out? We have to take into account that at this point months could have gone by without any contact. Would you find it weird or would you maybe be into it if it was you?
