It sounds like he likes you
He might like you, but I'm really not sure. I've never had a man tell that he "greatly appreciates" my company before.
Sorry I couldn't be of more help. :S
Really? That would be super...Quote:

Sounds pretty formal. I think it depends entirely on what he's like and how he talks. You could just ask him.

Sounds like he greatly apreciates your company ;)
Ask him :) ask him what his feelings are you know?
I think he likes you as a companion. In other words, it sounds like he doesn't mind that you keep him company. If he begins asking you to spend more time with him, then maybe it would mean he likes you.

A companion like... just a friend? Well... at least he doesn't mind me being around then, I guess!Quote:

Wow... I dated a good ole southern boy, too. He used to always say just about the same thing. "I really enjoy your company". At the time we were just getting to know each other on a "friend" level. I'd say he means just that. He enjoys your company and is glad you spend time/talk with each other. Time will tell. Best wishes.
Ooooh okay I get it. And if he says no?Quote:

Why do I feel like I messed that up. Haha.
If there's a place you like to visit or a restaurant you enjoy, you could ask him to "accompany" you. Something simple to get to know each other better.Quote:

Lol. Inexperianced, yes, messed up, no :PQuote:

How did your good ol southern boy flirt with you? I've never really been around one enough to know how they flirt. :/Quote:

Oooh this guy does that too! He likes touching my hair a lot. I feel better after reading this. At least I know I'm not hallucinating and imagining his flirting with me! It gives me more confidence, too. But do southern boys like chasing or being asked out?Quote:

I don't think it matters what part of the country he's from, he would probably feel flattered if you asked him out. Some say men enjoy the chase... but who knows. I'd say go with honesty, don't play cat and mouse games. Leave subtle hints that you like him and let things happen naturally... OR like I said, just ask him. No harm done if he says no and you gain some experience. My bet is it won't be too long that he asks you. Sounds like he is interested. EnjoyQuote:

Since the two of you like each other but nobody is making the first move then it is time for you to make it before someone else does.
Simply ask him out some where fun like bowling, miniature golf, rollerskating etc. Some where the two of you can talk but have fun at same time.
OK so we've been writing emails back and forth and he writes paragraphs normally. Well I wrote him one and I slipped in that I like him but kept the rest of it casual.
But he only responded with one sentence. He was laughing about a joke I made. That was it.
Did I blow it?
What exactly did you say? What did he say?

And, he thinks you're funny. So, you've got that going for you.
He told me that my name isn't wendy so he won't ever say anything in a angry tone to me. I said he was right and that the only wendy I might resemble is the one that sells the hamburgers. The one related to the fat guy.Quote:

I had also said... I hang out with you because I like you... and finished the sentence with normally.

To me it sounds like he enjoys your company but I wouldn't read too much into it because he could mean anything from I'd like to get to know you better to just friends to maybe we could get a relationship going.

Your right...Quote:

If someone is telling you they greatly appreciate your company, I think you're getting somewhere! Especially if it's a guy! Just wait it out a little; you'll know soon enough! :)
Good luck.
Seems to me like he is trying to respect boundaries an take things slow but there is the possibility of a next level... kind of depends also did he enjoy your company talking at his desk at work or at the library all depends on the setting... good luck
Yes it mean he likes you and wants to spend more time with you
I don't mind taking things slow... slows good. Why does the setting matter? What's the difference between work or the library or the movies?Quote:
