Q - Dear Annabelle,
There is a guy I have known casually for about 4 years,"G". I met him at a club where he worked. I dated a friend of his who also worked there. (We have since broken up.) I have always been attracted to this guy, "G", but I don't even know if he is involved with anyone. Or if he is at all interested in me.
Should I try to find out his situation and if he is interested? Or, should I just let it go and maintain the friendly acquaintance relationship we currently share? I have never been good at telling if someone is interested in me and looking for reciprocal feelings. I have been divorced for 2 years and was separated for 2 years prior to that. But I still can't differentiate between Îfriendlinessâ and Îinterestâ. Is there a way to be sure, short of someone asking me out? Do you subscribe to the notion that women should not ask men out? I really want to get to know "G" better. I only see him at the club where he now works. It is too loud in there to have any kind of a conversation. Any suggestions?
A - Dear Suzanne,
Try this....äHi, ÎG;..........can buy you a cup of coffee?ä Give it a shot....if he says Îyesâ, well, who knows? The next round of play is up to him. Donât hang back from life just because you may be wrong.....whatâs the worst that can happen? (He could not be interested in you beyond being Îjust a friend,â and then youâd be no worse off than you are now.)
