I would definatly talk to him about it. Or be the sly, sexy, one and write him a cute little note asking him out. I was in this situation, but he ended up asking me...but if he won't make the move, make it. Or suggest that someone else is going to ask you out, making him want to ask you first. If he still doesn't budge, he's bein a stupid guy.

Don't rush into anything. If he wants more, that's up to you. If you're not ready, then he should respect that. You should keep track of your goals and not get distracted. But you could also have your guy. You could make a packed to be together and not see other people, but let him know that you have goals you need to get through them. So there may be times you can't focus on him, but you won't be seeing anyone else. He should understand :) Good luck

Compliment him a little to get his attention and later on when you see a chance to walk with him by yourself do so and then let him know you think he is cute. The rest should fall into place, if he is not intereted then take it hard just take it as well my time wont be wasted anymore and move on.

There are a couple of things you might try.\n\n'Prime the pump' by letting him know in the morning that you'd like to have a serious conversation that afternoon.  I know that when my girlfriend has something to talk to me about, and she leaves a note for me to find when I come home, I can focus on nothing else but what that conversation is going to be about.\n\nMake sure your timing is good.  Guys are pretty simple.  If he's even partially involved in or has anything else on his mind, he'll have a hard time focusing on something that has to consume his whole attention.  Try asking him to pause what he's doing for the conversation if you can't find a good moment.

Hug him and tell him how special he is to you.  Let him know you are there for him and that you are there to listen any time he needs to talk.  Try to get him to go out and be among other people that's really important; it's so easy to withdraw from others and to close down.  He just needs to know that somebody does care and is willing to listen when he's willing to talk.

Sit down with him and tell him what is bothering you. Don't do everything for him or fall into the trap of purposely ignoring him in order to get his attention. Put your cards on the table and be upfront. If he still doesn't understand then there is a problem.

start small... just pay attention to him and be there for him.. he will be gone before you realize it ... take advantage of every opportunity to interact.. you may have to initiate the connections. Understand that he may not know how to talk to you either... He is a dad, not a mind reader.

Sadly about 20 minutes.  I envy your hour and a half but i can see where that would get tiring.  Have you tried having a quickie somewhere where you could get caught?  That should speed him up.

Get his s/n....and send him messages every once in a while. Also become his friend. Brush by his side accidentally but on purpose, it will definatly get him to start thinking about you. P.S.~ the bushing past your crush should take less than 10 sec. HOPE IT WORKS!!!!!!!

The best way is to be yourself and not try too hard. \n\nIf it's a specific person who's attention you are trying to get, let him know. But don't make it all about you and how you feel. What is it you like about him? What are his good qualities? Tell him what they are and what you like about him. That will definately get his attention. Then go on to tell him what his good qualities do for you, or how he makes you feel. Boost his ego and make him feel like the man and he'll be yours ;)

Paying attention to another person is a lot more like work than reading the paper or watching TV. Be aware that someone's attention is a gift, not an entitlement. If there is something specific that needs his attention, then ask him what would be a convenient time for him to attend to it. \n\nYou don't have anything particular in mind, you just think that he should be more interested in you than in the newspaper? My ex-husband thought the same way. If I tried to read a book or practice at the piano or just sit and look out the window, he constantly interrupted. He was jealous of any interest I might have that didn't include him. The keyword here is "ex". Think about it.

Dont keep nagging him or anything that will drive him away. give him some time then like Im him or something. Wait a while before you talk to him he may be willing to open up to you later.

Actions speak louder than words if used correctly. Don't talk to him that much, say leave me alone if he bugs you alot. Basically... Be the opposite of what you were to attract him in the first place.

Be patient....he needs time, take your time.
