boy and me, interracial, interpolitical, interreligion dating Options

[Inferia]

So there's this guy I like, I've known him for a while now, but nothing really happened. We've talked some regarding relationships, his and mine, I think most of the time the talk is prompted by me. I can't tell if he likes me or not, or just sees me as a little sister type of thing. I've never really been in this situation before. He's not the type who would just do random/causal dating, he has to be able to see a future with the girl before he really dates her, and I am more or less the same way. But there seems to be so many uncertainties that stands between us. The best way to describe him is all American, I can't really find any other words for it. It's not that big of a deal, but interracial relationships always make me a little bit nervous. But more importantly, he is catholic, and a fairly religious catholic (I guess I am more or less agnostic). He told me that he hasn't totally eliminated the possible of not marrying a catholic girl, but he thinks it would be kind of sad if the wife doesn't go to church with the family. He is also somewhat republican, and I'm more democrate, but I guess I don't known if this should be a big deal. The other thing is, he is a friend, I see him every single day for lunch, and he will be moving into the house I currently live in in July right next door to my room. I don't really want to make him feel uncomfortable with any talks of a relationship if he is not interested. I guess I just don't want it to be awkward between us since we will be seeing a lot of each other. So I don't really know what to do.

he's pushing you around and crap? sounds like a flirty, don't know what to do kind of youth frustration...

here is what I want you to do...

how are you dressing around him right now? jeans, tshirt, normal stuff? you need to advertise your sex for him. I'm not saying act like a slut or give it up, but show him you can turn up the heat. even if you don't feel particularly sexy, fake the funk...and dude yourself up for him one night/day...see how he reacts.

you're asian right? ever thought of playing that up in a way that won't send mixed messages? like dress up all asian fantasy like a school girl with pigtails or something and act all coy and aloof...

that may be over the top for you, but that shit would work like catnip...meow...
