    Do guys freak out if a girl asks them out? My last relationship lasted several years and I haven't been 'on the market' so to speak since my teens so I am completely clueless - in my 2 whole relationships, it's the bloke who made the first move.
    I'm a (mature) student and see a guy in college around my own age who I quite fancy. The only contact I've actually had with him was in a classroom situation last semester and if we see each other now we say hello.
    WHAT DO I DO!!!???? I'd really like to get to know him better but I'm so clueless!!

    Some perspectives from both sides of the gender spectrum would be great. Like a lost pup!

    Thanks.

    If you like him, ask him.

    Next time you see him, strike up a conversation about how he's doing in his course and then see if he wants to continue it over coffee.

    Ask him. If he likes you, he'll say yes. If he says no, it's not because he had a problem with you doing the asking, it's because he doesn't fancy you.

    It's as simple as that, really.

    Hey, we'll all be dying to hear how you got on so you'd better come back and tell us !!! lol

    I say just ask him about his latest exams, how he got on, or maybe if he was happy with his results. Anything just to start the ball rolling. You never know, after one full conversation with him, you might realise he's not what you thought at all.

    Best of luck xxxx
