In the two weeks prior to this one, a coworker of mine and I had been flirting a lot. He actually ended up coming out to one of my soccer games and two days later, he asked me out. The problem is - when he asked me out, I was closing at work (I finish around 1:30 am), so when I finally noticed the missed call, it was already quite late in the evening. I was pretty suprised he even contacted me (which is silly, I know), but I'm just so shy around guys I like my response was: "Did you mean to call me? Or someone else? I just finished closing."... I'm guessing it wasn't what he wanted to hear.

 

Since then (this is now one week later) he has been getting progressively colder towards me. After the night he asked me out, he flirted with me a few more days, but in the last week it has been mostly small talk between us.

 

So, with all that said my question is: I realize I kind of botched things... is there any way to get back to a week ago? I really like the guy, I just felt really unsure of myself at the time. If things aren't fixable thats okay, but I kind of wish I could get us back on track! He's the first guy I've really been interested in throughout this last year, and I'm hoping I can make things pan out a bit better. ;p

Ok, here's the thing. You have to be really crazy brave this time because here you take the risk of either saving it or making it so you two just don't talk.

 

But to be honest, it looks as if if you leave it, you're gonna end up not talking so I reckon you should go for it.

 

Just approach him and tell him what you've told us. Confidently, succinctly. "Hey, when you asked me out the other night I wasn't thinking straight, I had been busy and I got confused so I messed up, truth is, I'd love you to ask me out so although my answer is a week late, it's yes."

 

You will probably shock him for a moment or two. You never know, you may get a confession out of him like "Oh sorry after I thought you rejected me I started seeing someone else" or if he was really truthful "I changed my mind" but whatever comes your way take it in your stride.

 

I hope this idea helped. Good luck! x
