Slooow moving guy

[Deleted]

A few weeks ago I mentioned that I went out with a guy from work who seems interested. He was very respectful, kiss on the cheek goodnight. He was a bit distant afterwards, so I figured that was that. He's been crazy busy at work and away on business the past few weekends and this weekend too. But he's been texting, calling and popping by very frequently. Took me to lunch this week, and said he wants to see me next weekend. I like him, so I agreed to tentative plans for next weekend.
I confided in an older, trust-worthy, married male coworker(F) who I know for many years. F "knows" him from work too. F thinks this guy is a good guy and is shy and afraid to make a move; lacks confidence.
Slow moving is ok with me, especially because he seems like a very sweet and decent guy. In the past I've fallen hard and fast, so this is new to me. The thing is, I'm too nervous to make a first move for fear of rejection. And, well, he probably feels the same way. So WWYD? Just go with the flow and follow his lead? I feel like we are becoming friends in this process, which is great...but is that all he wants? Again, slow is new for me. Opinions??

I think slow can be great for a solid relationship. He sounds sweet and I like that he has drive/motivation. A bit of shyness can be endearing and in my experience, a shy guy is MUCH less likely to cheat down the road, LOL. I can't wait for you to go out again with him. Perhaps have a drink or two together to loosen things up a bit?

How are you feeling today? Better, I hope!

Thanks still feeling under the weather- mom came over with soup.
I think you may be right about shy guys, that's a very good thing! Lol yeah i'm looking forward to hanging out and I think a few drinks will be in order :beer:
