Too late???

OK, I'm the disabled one who thinks nobody fancies him, but there is one particular person who I'm just wondering if I've been ignoring signs off for ages, or she may just be an admirous friend.... opinions??

OK, we met a year ago, and we're sort of close as friends who bump into each other in the corridor can be. She's always disclosing problems in her love life with me, and she often tells me how great i am and reminds me of the time when i posted on her facebook wall and her mother saw and was like 'omg, who's that, he is so handsome?!'. Plus she's quite flirty with me, blows kisses to me etc.

Trouble is, she "knows" I'm not interested, i have also disclosed far too much to her, about foolish feelings i thought i had for my best friend and she's always asking how me and her are. My latest answer was along the lines of 'shes my best friend, and i never had a best friend before so i just kinda got confused tbh i don't really fancy her'.

Thing is, i'm starting to realise i quite like her [this girl, not the best friend] -ok, not to the point of wanting noone else but however i would not say no, and i think she secretly likes me too. The last time we met we left it as 'we MUST do coffee sometime.'. oh and, she's just split up with her bf. Any advice on how to put thoughts in her head without scaring her, or am i way too late, or is this just a sign of a good friendship again?

Aww bless you. It does sound like she's being quite flirty with you, so you've got every right to begin to wonder! But then again, some girls are just like that - so you have to judge what she's like with other guys first. That might just be her generic behaviour towards everyone, but see how things go... why not meet up with her for coffee and get talking and see where the friendship goes?

It's always worth a try. Look at it this way - being asked out by someone is always a compliment, so go for it!

Go out for a coffee and see where that leads. The good thing is there is no pressure on you to make a move as you are already friends with her - so just hang out together and see if the chemistry grows! You could try being flirty back at her and see how she reacts - nothing too full-on just the odd flirty comment and watch for her reaction.

Good luck, I'm sure you'll be fine. :smile:
