Ok there is still this thing going on with me and this guy that works at the front desk of the gym. Ever since I saw him at the store and him telling me to get him something and i said yes i would and i have been lagging on getting him something. SO yesterday he was questioning me on if i did get him something yet for the third time so i was thinking i would just get him a card and ask him to go out for ice cream as an apology for not getting him something sooner and on the card i was thinking i should maybe put my number on the card? Am i just putting myself out there and letting him think he can easily get my number if i just give it to him in the card? WOuld he think he can get me easily because i asked him to go out somewhere first?
Go for it! It would be good for you to give him your number so that he can call to schedule ice cream with you.
Listen. He seems like a shy guy thats flirting with you. Sometimes you have to make a step if you are interested. I've had to do it in the past, and I don't regret it any of those times. Right now, I'm with a guy I've known since high school but didn't say anything to until 8 years later about me being interested. I basically just sent him a message online while at a coffee shop and said hi, and that lead to a conversation where I told him I wasn't doing anything and he invited me over for dinner. We've been together sicne and going to get married October 27. Be bold. Take chances. If he wants to spend time with you he will call if you put your number in that card. If he doesn't call, it wasn't meant to be, you tried, and you can move on knowing that you tried. Besides the point that it's just ice cream, which is a friendly thing you'd do with somebody you know. So, no, you it wouldn't seem like he could just get your number easily.

I have to recommend taking the chance as well. I asked my bf out and here we are still happy after 4 years, 2 of them living together, with plans to get married once we finish college. Go for it!
I had to ask my boyfriend out too (and totally still resent him for being such a big chicken!) but he was way, way too shy to take the big step. We hung out ALL the time, and I KNEW he was in to me.. he was just too scared to take the leap in case it backfired. Two years later, we're still here and have a pet bunny together, lol
Ok i gave him the card with my number on it and he was like there might be a bomb in it i don't know if i want to open it lol and it was so funny because in return he was suppose to get me something so he looked to his right and grab a pen that had a flower attached to it and he was like here you can write with it or put it in your hair to look nice and i was like thats not a very thoughtful gift :P i will tell him he owes me something else next time besides that pen. oh yeah he text me when he first opened the card but my phone was at home so i didn't get it till i got home...anywho just wanted to fill you guys in with what happened thanks for the replies guys..made me step out of my comfort zone a little
Yay! Albeit I'm well out of my 20-somethings I'd been peeking back at your other thread to see what happened next ... nothing like living vicariously eh. Good on ya. Enjoy!
his first text was about the ice-cream thing and joking about how he was on a diet and him telling me to sleep cause it was already like 3am and then i told him we should go for ice-cream the following day and he said he couldn't but on the weekend he could so i just told him to tell me the day and time and he said yes ma'am i will lol so we have not text each other back since that day he might of forgot the ice-cream thing which is okay cause i save myself from consuming some extra calories if we do end up going for ice-cream i'll fill you guys in
I don't think I'd mention the ice cream thing again. I'd just casually say "hey" or something. I feel like you did your part by making the first move and giving him your number and inviting him for ice cream. Now the ball is in his court. IMO, if you bring up the ice cream again, he'll think you're desperate. Let him make the next move. If he doesn't, his loss.
Gym and a guy
Go for it!
if we do end up going for ice-cream i'll fill you guys in
