    I'm super shy myself, so I totally understand. I would try to avoid text, email, etc, since it will just drag things out. I would just straight up say the next time you see him "I never get to see you except for at these things. We should hang out sometime..." and then it would open the door, window, and roof for him to swoop in and ask you out, or at least show interest (or not) in doing something outside of church. Asking to hang out is not as much pressure as saying formally "we should go on a date" because "hanging out" just means I want to get to know you better, and then you can see where things go from there :D

    I agree... keep working on the friendship thing but you need to add some flirtyness in there or else you can get friend zoned. Touch his arm, look in his eyes, smile, lick your lips while talking (bonus points if he looks down at your lips while doing it), ask personal questions like what he does for fun outside of church, etc etc...

    Good advice. It's ironic, I flirt ten times better with guys I'm NOT interested in, which is why I think I was better off before I decided I might be interested :ohwell:

    That is EXACTLY the way I am. I'm glad I'm not the only one :smile:

    I think we all do.. well I did.

    There's a guy here at work that is SO SO cute. I've had a mini crush on him for a while. Everytime I go near him and talk to him, I can hardly speak, I'm a blushing mess, I look down.. it's ridiculous.

    On my 1st date with my bf, I couldn't stop smiling. I had this goofy huge grin on my face, red cheeks, sweaty arm pits, the whole thing! On other dates, I had nerves but they'd go away after a while...

    Good idea :). I am going to work on getting to know him better and then maybe I'll try the hang out line. Or, heck, maybe I'll get some courage and ask him out. I almost did on Sunday and I think I would have had the opportunity presented himself and if I hadn't felt like we were starting from scratch.
