my friend, the gal:
friendly on the outside but can be considered quite a passive girl) e.g. wait for her girl friends to ask her out), age 23. Generally thinks that having a bf is a bit of a chore and looking for a long term, stable relationship.
the situation:
my friend got to noe a guy 4months ago. she interested to get to know him better slowly and carefully. drop few very subtle hints to the guy, but seriously their stage of development still a bit far from B/GF stage. The guy seemed interested in her to an extent of i quote '75%' showhand. so says the girl 6th sense. but the guy recently gave mixed signals, like ask her out but she busy so reject but got say reason...but the guy did not follow up. so the girl is confused a bit and also a bit angry and gave the guy cold shoulder. but now the girl dunno what to do liao seemed like no contact. so far it has almost been the guy initiating the contact abt 80% of the time. and according to my friend, the guy seemed quite confident abt himself 1 but got exams coming up.
question is what should the girl do? i dunno how to offer her good advice man given her personality and situation. if only i know the guy then can do something abt it
Hi Cerebral_Assassin,
Hmm... Now is exams time maybe the guy is busying studying that's why never call the girl.. Since she knows that the guy is interested in her.. She doesn't have to worry so much.. Moreover.. he ask her out but she couldn't make it.. and reason is given...

Maybe after exams, the girl can msg him like something "Hey you finish exams already right? SO how was it?? Everything's ok?? Can pass anot??" Start with a conversation first.. and see the guy's reaction and reply.. Then slowly ask him whether wanna come out celebrate and have a dinner together..

Actually.. i don't really think is a good start for girls to ask guys out.. But since the guy has ask her out but she couldn't make it.. She can grab this chance and ask him out.. Saying a make up for that last time...

One reminder.. if she likes the guy and the guy likes her... But she wants to know more about him first right.. Tell her.. Be herself when she's with him.. And try to go out 1 v 1 is better.. Don't show or react any signs to him that she is so interested in him and wan to get closer to him... Try not to do that.. Unless she's so 100% confident that this guy likes her that much too.. and having signs of getting her as a potential.. then slowly slowly she can hint him or what... Don't rush things.. Take it real slow!!

CHeerS!
