doubtfull Posted July 31, 2010 Share Posted July 31, 2010 Ok. So im a freshmen tuba in marching band. And the tuba beside me is a senior. Now, I have the biggest crush on him. Im not sure if he feels the same. He has corrected me on my chin height. To do so, he would place his index finger along my chin, and his thumb under my chin, and gently push up. Now, people ask why my chin is too high. also, on multiple occasions, he has pushed in on my lower back to fix my posture. As if thats not too much already, our eyes have met many times, though not for long. And I Link to comment
doubtfull Posted July 31, 2010 Author Share Posted July 31, 2010 sometimes feel him checking me out. But back to the eyes, we haven't met eyes in a while. So, either he has lost interest, he never had any, or hes waiting for my move. If the second is true, theres no way around that. But if its the first or the last, I can still make this work. What are some subtle ways to say 'Im interested'? p.s. He offered to tutor me some time, and he's really cool ( but looks don't hurt ; )). Link to comment
saynothing77 Posted July 31, 2010 Share Posted July 31, 2010 p.s. He offered to tutor me some time, and he's really cool ( but looks don't hurt ; )). Why didn't you take up the offer yet? I'd say go for some "tutoring" and take it from there! Maybe you can offer to watch a movie after the lesson or something? Link to comment
doubtfull Posted July 31, 2010 Author Share Posted July 31, 2010 Ok. I have tryed to take him up on his offer, but the last time I tried, he couldn't due to a physical. But next time we do, ill bring a portable DVD player. With a small screen. So we need to be close to see it Link to comment

doubtfull Posted August 3, 2010 Author Share Posted August 3, 2010 Ok. It looks as if, due to practices being at 6pm to 9 30, the dvd deal is off, along with any after practice lessons wits alone time. That, as far as I can see, was our only chance of being alone without alwardness occurring. Any ideas? D: Link to comment
doubtfull Posted August 3, 2010 Author Share Posted August 3, 2010 Scratch that! I started talking to him about how i wanted to see a movie tomorrow, and he somewhat invited himself. Not that im upset. He can't make it tomorrow, but he's free Saturday. Not sure what were seeing yet, but i know what ill be watching. He also offered to drive. May just be because its a 20 minute drive to the closest theater. But that shows he's concerned. Also good Link to comment
medicine Posted August 3, 2010 Share Posted August 3, 2010 That sounds good. He even somewhat invited himself, that's a plus My question is, is anybody else going with you guys? Link to comment
doubtfull Posted August 4, 2010 Author Share Posted August 4, 2010 Nope just the two of us Link to comment
medicine Posted August 4, 2010 Share Posted August 4, 2010 Perfect. Now you have all your cards together and all you need now is to play them right. Just some advice, don't do things that might show that your too eager, that might creep him out. Besides, you don't even know if he feels the same way that you do. Play it cool, but still show some signs of interest and that your having fun. Good luck on your "date" . Have fun. Keep us updated. -medicine Link to comment

medicine Posted August 6, 2010 Share Posted August 6, 2010 Two days until the movie. Can't wait. In the mean time, i have come out about being bi to one friend, and planning another one. That's great. Be sure to feel comfortable and enjoy every moment, who knows, maybe both you guys might eventually get something going on in the future. Coming out is not easy, glad you have the courage to do so. -medicine Link to comment
doubtfull Posted August 7, 2010 Author Share Posted August 7, 2010 Thanks. You know, before finding this site, i would have thought it crazy that I would work up the courage to tell someone with out commiting suicide shortly after. I am so glad i found this site. Thanks to you all! Hugs! Link to comment

doubtfull Posted August 8, 2010 Author Share Posted August 8, 2010 Will do. Any way, my parents said I had to go to an earlier showing, and he couldn't make it. He had to babysit. This just means we will be able to hang out some other time when my parents aren't home, maybe. Link to comment
Nimzo Posted August 8, 2010 Share Posted August 8, 2010 Nothing to offer really, just wanted to say this thread and the OP are incredibly cute. Link to comment
doubtfull Posted August 9, 2010 Author Share Posted August 9, 2010 Nothing to offer really, just wanted to say this thread and the OP are incredibly cute. Lol, thanks. I want to post something deep, but im way to tired after today. Im lucky i remembered to check this site. Lol. Link to comment
doubtfull Posted August 11, 2010 Author Share Posted August 11, 2010 So, the tuba I like also plays a lot of other instruments. So, being multi-instrumental my self, decided before i even net him I wanted to play another instrument other than baritone and tuba. Well, with him being an expert in trombone, I am thinking of taking up trombone as a third. Plus, I get a crazy awesome tutor He already agreed to tutoring me if i chose trombone. He even offered to help with trumpet I think he really wants to be around me. Link to comment
medicine Posted August 11, 2010 Share Posted August 11, 2010 That's great I see that you are getting a lot of interactions with him. You should be very proud to have similar interest with him because it gives you more leverage and it is much easier to talk to him. Keep it up Keep us updated. -medicine Link to comment
doubtfull Posted August 12, 2010 Author Share Posted August 12, 2010 While it's true we have something in common to talk about, I would like to have something else in common other than band. Link to comment
gardengnome Posted August 13, 2010 Share Posted August 13, 2010 Baritone/Euphonium/Tuba/Trumpet: 0, 2, 1, 1-2, 2-3, 1-3, 1-2-3. The equivalent on trombone positions in order are: 1,2,3,4,5,6,7 You can learn them all and not be any good or you can master one and really have a lot of fun. Your choice. If you want to go to school for music, all they care about is that you are awesome on one. They'll teach you the rest in a 1 credit class. In terms of relationship advice, if it goes well with your tuba buddy, awesome. If not, you'll always have lots of friends if you stick with band . AEA. Link to comment
doubtfull Posted August 14, 2010 Author Share Posted August 14, 2010 Well, out of wanting to keep this thread alive, and lack of knowledge on this subject, what tips can I get to let him know I like him. Something subtle but effective. Link to comment
