Okay, so this guy is kinda shy when it comes to girls. He's only ever had one girlfriend, and she dumped him after about a month. He's a very open person and has a lot of friends, but he isn't the kind to go through girlfriends very quickly. Lately I've been hanging out with him a lot, and we're pretty good friends I guess you could say.

The problem is that I am even shyer than he is, never had a boyfriend and am a little angsty teen bith (omg!blahblah get over it). I don't know how to tell if he likes me. Even if he hinted at me I probably managed to miss that because that's just how dumb I am.

Hell, to prove how dumb and helpless I am just see now how I am going to 4-channers for advice. Well, seeing as how my closest friends are 4-channers I guess it's really just a bigger variety of what I'd get from them. Whatever.

Anyways, any advice or suggestions would be appreciated. The standard "just tell him how you fell" would not be, considering I have heard this so much, but what the hell. Say what you want, I'm open to criticism and enlightement.

Try this:
Cook for him.
It gives you two time to be together while you prepare the food as well as while you eat.
"let's hang out and I'll cook us some dinner" is safer than, "hey let's go out and do something," Because it doesn't really seem like a date.  And the situation lends itself to both of you being more relaxed.
