So... there's this guy...

I met this guy in December and things were kind of ...weird. I live in Colorado, he lives in L.A. and we met in Chicago but what started the conversation is that he was originally from Colorado and had lived just a couple of blocks from where I went to college. Pretty close to where some of my friends had had a house. And then he'd gone to college for about a year where I'd lived before moving out. We learned to snowboard in the same place (several years apart - I was 13 or 14, he was 18-19). Just little things like that.
When asked who I'd prefer make "the first move," I always say I'd rather just skip to the second. I hate the possible rejection involved with being the one to make it but when the other person does it kind of freaks me out. So when this guy started flirting with me, I retreated and think I gave off the impression I wasn't interested. And the truth was, I wasn't sure if I was interested.
Fast forward to the last few weeks and things have gotten very ... strange. To start off, I met him through the band he was playing with at the time and after that we became Facebook friends and it's evolved slowly from there. Since then, they've started to get a lot of media attention (even have a video on MTV.com now) and he actually got an interview in Bass Magazine. So I shared a link to the interview on my Facebook page and he commented, telling me "You're just so amazing.

Yeah you have to try and calm down. Try not to be overly worried about the way things go. Just let things go as they will. talk with him, spend time together but don't over think things. It will make you more nervous and possibly make things awkard. Just try and strengthening the friendship the two of you have.

Here's what I think you should do, first, don't let this thoughts in your mind bother you too much. Let things happen and go with it, as long as you set boundaries. The best move would be to not expect anything that way everything becomes a wonderful surprise. Don't ruin this chance by making too much of it and most important of all, have fun.So best of luck to you and enjoy!

First off, calm down and breath 
if I were you, expect friendship and if you get more, be extra excited. Sounds like you like his guy a lot. Remember : be calm, he already likes you, relax and enjoy whatever time you spend with him

It isn't complicated, but you are making it complicated. Go hang out with him when he gets in town--get a coffee, have dinner. See where things lead. If it works, it works. If it doesn't, at least you'll know and won't be left to wonder if there might have been something there.
