Some well needed pointers for someone shy....

Greetings everyone- this seemed to be the place for the advice that I am seeking, plus from other posts, I'm walking into a lively bunch of people with witty tongues. So there is this guy I'm intrigued by and he is a Scorpio Sun with a Pisces Moon and Scorpio in Venus. I am just wondering how to approach this situation gently- I am not looking to rush into a relationship with him, for me it is imperative that a mutual foundation of trust and respect is built.

The social situation that we were into tonight I thought went okay, while all the others spoke, I sat quietly and observed! When I did talk or try to chime in as he insisted I do, he would stop talking and let me talk. We did exchange glances at one another throughout the night and we would look away when we caught each other. When he said something funny I would notice that he would look in my direction to see if I was laughing.

Before the group became too big, we were talking about our common interests in movies, we even debated a little about evolution and the bible. I showed him pictures of me and my sister and he showed me pictures of his little girls.

I did not flirt with him and he did not flirt with me- both of us are just now getting back on to the dating scene. I have been divorced for 5 years now, it was painful and messy. Same with him, he just got out of a relationship- so we are just hanging out.

My question is, could there be any indication of a mutual interest on his part? What should I do to get him to ask me on a one on one date when the time is right? Thank you in advance and I apologize for the long diatribe.

Thanks! 🙂

One of my best friends is a Gem Sun, Taurus Venus-- but she has an Aries moon.

Anyway

I figured some others would have commented by now, but honestly-- idk how you can "get someone to ask you out."

There's no magic formula (that I know of), but I would recommend that you just Be Yourself.

So what was it that attracted you a Scorp?

🙂 Your post made me smile as I read it. He is interested in you, but I wouldn't be able to say if it is romantically or not. Only time will tell you that. The way you handled yourself would pique my interest, but that's me. I may be a little bias given my fondness for Gem babies, so take that with a grain of salt. Continue to pique his interest with interesting conversation and a touch mystery and see where it goes.

As for the second question, it reads a little contradictory. When the time is right it will happen. Not before and most certainly not because you want him to do it.

Also, why do assume he's shy? (e.g. title) Scorps tend to observe and make decisions after they've determined the best approach, if they decide to approach it at all.

I wish it was that easy...
