This is gonna be sorta long, just to warn you ahead of time. I'll try and be brief.

My city has a street fair on the night of July 3rd. I was there with my friends (around 10 of us) when we met up with my best friend's boyfriend's best friend (Carl). So we all hung out for a while, and had fun. Then we all met up again on the 4th for the parade. Afterward we went to a different friend's house to set off our own fireworks and hang out and stuff. My friends are all really cuddly and we love blankets, so we all got out the blankets piled onto the trampoline. Carl started putting his hand on my leg, and I put my hand near his. Then he started holding my hand, and soon he had his arms wrapped around me. He was kissing my hair and my neck and my arms and it was really sweet. He also took my hand and kissed my fingers really gently. He kissed me on the cheek when he left too.

Then, when I got home, he had sent me a facebook message saying this: 'Um hey just wanted to apologize i can be kinda forward.... at times.... anyway ill probably see you around.'

So now I don't really know what to expect from him. Anyone have any advice, or things to say about this?

Well. It sounds like he obviously likes you or is starting to like you by how lovey dovey he was acting. And if you were reciprocating I'm assuming you kind of like him too, yeah ?

It sounds like he was being apologetic because he's afraid of scaring you off or something. Personally I'd be flattered, it sounds like he really cares about what you think about him.

At this point it's really hard to tell where it's gonna go. Personally I'd just continue being friends and talking to him, and maybe you guys will hang out again soon sometime and get to know each other better and see where it goes from there.

Should I say something in response to his message on facebook?

I have absolutely NO experience with this at all.

the best answer: no worries

anything less and you'll seem indifferent. anything more and you'll girl it up.

besides, summed it up nicely.

Kinda fast for just for the first time really hanging out with him. but thats just me.

I don't think you have anything to worry about, with you liking him. It seems like he was really being sweet, and like Blir said.. Well, usually I have something better to say, but Blir pretty much summed it up.

Maybe you should talk to him about it, and try to flirt a little?

Aww that sounds sweet. c:

You shouldn't worry at all like Blir said.

You don't have to respond to the message, but if you want to, then just say you didn't mind or whatever you want to say.

Thanks so much, everyone, for the help.

Yeah, I think Blir was right.

Now I'm just worried about his health. He's trying to quit smoking, and I'm TOTALLY there for him. According to his best friend who introduced us, he's much more motivated to quit with me around.

Also, we went onto someone's property and went into these abandoned army bunkers from WWII, and it was SO dark and creepy inside. There was spray-paint everywhere and we found clothes and a sleeping bag, like a bum was living in them. He held my hand the entire time we were in there, cause I was sorta freaked out. It was really sweet.
