I have a huge crush on this guy. He’s one of the closest new friends I’ve made since moving abroad. Last night, sometime after midnight, I was bored and couldn’t sleep, so I called him. He was asleep when he picked up. I asked if he wanted to come over, and surprisingly, he said yes.

We played Baldur’s Gate 3, watched YouTube, listened to music, snacked, and chatted until 5 a.m. Poor guy couldn’t even stay over and had stuff to do early in the morning, so he barely got any sleep. I was honestly impressed by how willing he was to spend the night with me.

Would it be safe to assume that he likes me too?

Definitely. And that he came over and didn't pressure you into something as his reward is a massive green flag.

Most likely. Have you tried kissing? You should try kissing. Then you'll know.

Of course not.

Everybody likes to be awakened to go entertain someone all night long and get sleep deprived for the things we actually had to do in the morning.

/S

Wish you well on your blossoming relationship, love birds! 😊

One million percent yes

He definitely likes you and it's 50/50 whether he thought your midnight call was a booty call. Get you some girl.

Yes. I bet if you were sick he'd also jump at the opportunity to bed sit you because he's smitten.

Once that happens, not much asked of them is viewed as a burden, instead it's a joy even if it's unhealthy. Be careful not to end up exploiting such a person. It's a bit of a gift and a curse...well, IMO.

He loves spending time with you for sure. Moat likely loves you, too.

[–] Ok_imagination@lemmy.world 1 points 1 hour ago (1 children)

I don't see mention of your gender. But most likely yes.

[–] Knock_Knock_Lemmy_In@lemmy.world 3 points 26 minutes ago

To be more precise, this is about compatible sexual orientation.
