Guy help?

[RrCoAsTeR]

So...

A guy asked me out today. I don't know what to do.

Usually I can deal with this stuff, but it's a little bit of a hard situation.

So the guy is one that a lot of people consider a "dweeb." (short, glasses) but I honestly don't care. He's also really shy before you get know him. I've just stopped liking the guy I did, so I'm pretty open right now.

HE's liked me for awhile. One guy asked me out for him awhile back, but it was a guy who's always kidding about this stuff, so I didn't believe him and made some sarcastic comment. Apparently it was real, and the guy was really upset. I apologized and we were okay.

He asked me out after school today, face to face. I said I'd think about it and tell him tomorrow (which sounds really mean when I think about it) Now I really don't know what to say. He's a really, really nice guy. He makes me laugh and I feel good around him. But I've never really thought about him in that way before. I'm the first girl he's ever asked out, and he's so shy I can't imagine what it took, especially becasuse his friends were trying to convince him not to.

I don't want to lose a chance, but I also don't want it to seem like I was going out with him out of pity.

Advice?

Go out with him, and have fun. Seems like you like him, so I don't see why you think it would be out of pity.

Tell him you thought about it, and decided it would be a great idea if the two of you spent some one-on-one time to get to know each other better because you think he's a great guy. Then he won't think it's out of pity at all.

If you like him, do it, if not, then don't.

If you don't like him, your pity towards him with show right through.

That's my problem. It's not pity, but I don't want peop,e to think that because I've never talked about him before, really.

I don't think people will be sitting around thinking about how you're so obviously just going out with him out of pity...
If you stay with him, they'd eventually realize that you really do like him.

what does it matter what other people think? Alot of people don't like the fact that my boyfriend and I are together, but we don't really care.

Thanks you guys. I'm leaning towards yes. It just helps to talk it out and hear what other people have to say.

And my friends have not been the... most... supportive lately.

I'd say yes if I were you.
You don't know if you like him or not, so maybe a date would help straighten out your feelings towards him. And you never know, you may end up having fun. You may end up in a relationship or in you two could be really good friends.

Don't worry about what other people think.

People are to centered around self image these days. I love myself. I know there's things wrong with me (i.e. i'm overweight, i'm loud, I can be bossy if needed) but I don't let people bother me. I love my friends because they love me for who I am.

People will say, what they will say. Don't focus on them. Focus on you.
