Here's the only think I would say, BBJ. It really doesn't matter how clear you are about what your expectations are. He is probably going to have other expectations, or at least hope that you'll perhaps change yours. That doesn't mean he won't accept yours, and be perfectly fine with it. Just be ready.
Appreciate the feedback guys! Still thinking...
The thing is, I know I want to be friends with him, but I haven't ruled out the possibility of more at a later date. I am just trying to go slow in life and not plan too far ahead.
All I do know is I like hanging out with him and I realized that as speech is coming to an end, I found myself disappointed that I don't have a 'reason' to see him until next speech season. Weird, huh?
My concern is more the opposite...since we do work together on the speech stuff, I don't want to mess that up. I worry that if I ask him to hang out, he may take it as a 'date', and if he is not 'into' me, that could weird him out and then things would be awkward at speech!
Ideally what I would like is to hang out as friends and just see how that goes. I may realize that I ONLY like him as a friend, or vice versa...
