I want some opinions on what to do in this situation: I met a great guy at a party who happens to be the best friend of one of my friends. We had a great time talking throughout the night and after everyone else had passed out/ left, we stayed up for over two more hours talking- and now I really like him. I actually already did email him a picture from the party, and he responded saying he had a great time talking and getting to know me and he is sure we will hang out again soon.

I wanted everyone's opinion on how I should approach him again- talk to our mutual friend, leave it be and see what happens, etc. I'm just worried if I don't do anything, nothing will happen which I would hate- he gives me *butterflies*

i think you need to organise a date.. just ask him if he wants to go out for a drink.. and see how he replies

yup, just ask him for a drink. believe it or not, when a woman makes the first move, guys like it!

hmmm... that simple? lol, I always over-analyze everything and make a bigger mess of things when I shouldn't. Thanks for your replies!

update: hung out with him again, had another great time. Was warned by our mutual friend to please not like him though- said he hasn't been interested in anyone for as long as he has known him, he doesn't like me and that he will not return any feelings, and my friend doesn't want to see me hurt. Why does this always happen to me???

hmmm.... very true. I guess I just assumed my guy friend was trying to look out for me and wasn't going to question what he told me. I don't want to push things too much though- not be crazy, psycho girl going after this guy.

And the second meeting wasn't technically a date- went to a party and hung out there. Was lots of fun, but not a "date"

I did send him a message on a website we're on, but he hasn't responded back yet. I guess we'll see...
