There's this guy i like and i'm having a quite few problems. First of all, i'm not exactly sure if he's into guys. He just said that he's open to dating guys and girls. So maybe he is. But he didnt sound exactly sure when he told me. What do you think?

When i talk to him, he usually gives just short answers like yes or no. He's never asked me anything and i always start our conversations. I want to have better conversations with him but i don't know how. I'm pretty sure he's ok with me since he always replies but sometimes he just immediately says good night which is also weird. Any advice?

I also want to tell him that i sorta like him but i don't know how without freaking him out or something like that. Please help.

super tris to the rescue :P

first of all,how long have you known him? if its not that long, are you sure he just doesnt know you that well, hence the short replies?

2ndly, if you did ask him out, how do you expect he will react?

if you are confident he will date both, ask hm :) you never know where it will get you. worst case scenario, he turns you down. best case scenario, he says yes and everything goes well.

take the risk after calculating the expected outcome. how will you know what he will say if you never ask him?

You should ask him if you feel that it's worth the risk. But...think before you act. If he actually doesn't date both guys and girls, then you could risk your friendship, and things could get weird. But on the good side, like Tristin said, you could end up in a relationship with him. :)

If he's so nonchalant, maybe you should just give him up. He doesn't really seem to be taking an interest in you, I don't think. I'm so sorry, especially if I'm wrong. That's usually how I treat people that are annoying to me. Maybe you should take the plunge and just ask him out, since it doesn't really seem like he's trying to keep a steady friendship with you if you always have to start the conversations... he sounds like a jerk. I'm sorry. ):

We've been in the same class for 3 years and we talk to each other but i still don't think he knows me well since he doesn't ask me anything

I did but he said he's busy which he really is since he's head of a dance group or maybe he just doesn't want to go out with me which i'm starting to think is the reason.

I want to ask him but should i say it directly?

I'm actually thinking you're right. Maybe I'm just scared that i won't find a guy like him anywhere else. But as they say, there's plenty of fish in the sea.

I think, you shouldn't be the one starting conversations.
It will make him think you're all over him. And he might get a bit annoyed with you.
(no, offense... but, i had an experience with this before... and it didn't end too well. He started thinking I'm weird and all... :/)

Just keep it laid back. Say hi to him from time to time.
Soon, he'll be starting conversations with you :)

If he still acts as if he's not interested, leave him. Someone that doesn't wanna talk to you isn't worth the time and effort :)

I know where you're coming from with the one word answers and not quite ignoring you but not being very interesting... I was in the same situation not long ago.

If I was you I would just hang back for a while and see if you can try to get him to talk to you more, have some more in depth conversations and see what comes of that. If he continues to just 'ignore' you then I would recommend trying to move on and accept that he isn't interested. If he does show some interest though you're in... just take things as slow as you think you need to and eventually it'll feel right for you to take the final step and ask him out.

Good Luck.
