want to get to know a guy

    Im interested in a guy I know casually. He tried to kiss me when he was drunk a few months ago but I was dating someone else so I obviously turned him down. I dont really know him very well but he seems nice and is always friendly when I see him. I wasnt too impressed with him lunging at me and thought he's probably only after a shag but Ive asked some friends that have known him longer and the general consensus seems to be that he's not the type to chase girls and would even border on being shy.

    Id like to get to know him better. I try to make the effort to chat to him whenever I see him but for all he knows Im still unavailable and he has never been the one to approach me. Although friends of mine have said theyve seen him checking me out (who knows they might have been humouring me).

    So how do I subtly let him know Im single and like him but dont want to be drunkenly lunged at!

    Right never mind the "subtly let him know Im single and like him". You turned him down the last time (although in fairness you had good reasons) and if he is shy he may not try it on again. Plus most of us fellas never get "subtle hints".

    But you have an advantage here in knowing he likes you. When your next talking to him, ask him if he'd like to go for a coffee/drink/etc sometime. Trust me, if he likes you he'll be thrilled and that way you can get to know each other properly and not be lunged at! :D

    Subtle hints don't work. And often obvious hints don't work. Lots of fellas, myself included, pretty much need a brick across the face before they realise and interest.
    And once they do that can change everything

    Thanks for the replies. Now to try to lure him away from his friends for long enough to ask him out I suppose! Wish me luck :)
