Do I literally just ask him out?

Hi,

I went on a week trip away with my club at uni and this guy that I haven't met before came along. He's a literal 10/10 to me and I feel like a 7/10 at most. Anyway I spoke to him a bit because he's friends with a friend of mine but he's quite quiet and it was more talking in a group rather than us two one on one.

There were a few times when I was in a bikini that I thought I saw him checking me out, but I could be completely wrong and reading into it.

He's a really nice guy so I don't want to ruin any potential friendship but I also really want to ask him to go for a drink with me. What do I do??

msg him/talk to him a bit more first to get to know him?
Ask him out.

If you like him, it’s just going to be painful being friends.
I don't see why not.

Yeah, I'm trying to but I literally can't think of anything to say, it feels weird just asking "how are you" or something because we're not there in terms of friendship and it feels a bit forced. Feel like I need an excuse to actually talk to him but I genuinely can't think of anything

I've literally never done this before and I'm kinda scared of the rejection since he is incredibly attractive and I'm not so much 😂

Talk to him on social media first. You don’t need an excuse, just say hi. If he seems responsive, go for it.

no that's a little forward, just getting to know him and stuff and then ask him out

No, metaphorically do so.
Message him and see if he’s responsive. If he wants to hold the conversation he will and if he doesn’t you have your answer...
Go for it fam

Even talking to him to get to know him seems forward to me, because I have no reason to message him about that either. I'm a bit awkward and lone wolfy so I generally don't message people like that, so I've had no practice doing it.

there's a first time for everything, and what's the worst that could happen?

Probably that he rejects me and then it gets all awkward the next time I see him and I feel like I can't be friends with him because of it

That’s why you should talk to him first. Any general chat willcstart the conversation and from there you can gauge his interest
