  1. Hiii thank you all for your responses! This morning I texted him and asked if he wanted to go for coffee sometime this week and he said yes, and that he was happy I asked. So we're going to go out on Tuesday to my favorite place in Bournemouth and we'll see what happens. I put my overanalyzing down to not wanting to overstep my mark or upset my friendship. But taking the casual approach is far easier and has actually worked out well. Thanks for all the advice!
  2. I'm currently in college studying a Fine Art foundation course - it was supposed to be a move to help me get into the course I want at university. But lately my professor has been incredibly critical of my work. He says that my essays and theoretical work are good but always makes little digs at my drawings. I'm really frustrated because when I try and discuss my work with him he isn't helpful and its like he can't be bothered to help me improve and during a talk after class the other day he made a comment along the lines of me looking at other options instead of applying for a university course to start in this September (I'm already 21 so I'm feeling a lot of pressure to get to uni as I'll already be three years later than most people). I love art and while sketching isn't my thing I love photography and more practical things. Do you think I should talk to another professor or maybe should I listen to him? After all if he doesn't think I am good enough then maybe I should rethink things. Any advice would be incredible! Feeling really lost.
  3. Thank you for your response! For me, I am polyamorous and looking for something casual so that side of things is relatively uncomplicated. I know his partner well and its a very open relationship where they both date and have relationships with others frequently. I just didn't really understand his behaviour and whether I was reading in to things too much or if I should just calm down and meet him at his level and see what happens.
  4. I've recently got closer to a guy in my course, he is married but polyamorous and openly dating/ seeing new people. He is an incredibly confident and sociable person, in social situations he can be flirtatious. At first I accepted that this is just how he is, but I began to feel like he is particularly flirty with me. Lots of little touches on the thigh or arms, prolonged eye contact even in group settings, and teasing, plus he always seems to end up sat next to me or across from me. I recently joined a dating app and the following day a bunch of us were going out for drinks and when I saw him he told me he had seen me on there and he commented one some of the pictures, much later on he saw me open the app and asked if I had seen him. I hadn't, but then I swiped and he popped up, I closed the app quickly and laughed but he teased me for this and asked me if I wasn't even going to look at his profile. I opened it, and we matched. But Bumble has a 24hr window for the girl to message the guy and I copped out and didn't because I didn't know what the vibe was. Fast forward to the other night, I invited him and his partner out to some drinks with a group of my friends. They don't know my friends too well but I thought it would be nice. His partner wasn't feeling well, so the guy came on his own and automatically we gravitated towards each other again, conversation flows really easily with us. I noticed that I am beginning to feel a little shy around this guy, and on this night as we spent more time together I noticed he was a lot more reserved than usual. He engaged a lot less with the group than he usually would and we ended up speaking alone a lot. He did a few little things that made me suspicious; leaning his body and head on me to look at the drinks menu, offering to share a blanket with me (we were on a terrace). But he was far less outlandishly flirty than he usually is with everyone, it was like seeing a different side to him. Last thing happened when this morning I woke up to a text from him, with a screenshot of my dating profile which had popped up on his feed again. We made some jokes etc about it and I joked about actually needing to message people instead of ignoring them. Out of curiosity I swiped to see if we would match again and we did. Why would he feel like matching with me a second time after it had expired the first? I am confused about his behaviour and what it means and whether I maybe did something to make him more nervous the other night? Also should I message him on the app this time? I feel like I would like to get to know him in that way but I am worried I am misreading him.
