hey so i met this guy at a party and we were talking and dancing and stuff. it was really fun, so i got his number. the next day we were texting like the whole day and flirting and stuff. he was gonna come bike to my house just so we could hang out! then he planned we were gonna hang out yesterday but he couldnt bc he didnt feel good. i texted him yesterday and he suggest we hang today. i really still wanna hang out tonight, but he hasnt told me anything about it yet! i feel like i should wait for him to bring it up first though ya know? idk. i need help...haha thanks

Hey girl, sounds like you've got a strategy. This guy might just be into you, but let him hint it through his invitations before you hint anything back. Good luck!

xoxo
