My god, this is too damn cute/sweet. I'd encourage you to break out of your shell a little and lay your feelings on the table. Sounds like the time is right. You know what your feelings are and it looks good on his end as well. Also, he's out of a relationship... Don't look back and wonder what could have been. Take the risk. I know it's gotta be hard for a shy ISFJ. It's hard enough for a semi-shy ISTJ.Oh, he wasn't dating ME, haha. I am his supposed "unrequited love" in this case. (Except that it's not unrequited, I have loved him for a year.) I believe that he was interested in me at least at one point, but I was in denial for a long time and did not want to be in love, because I knew it would likely cause me a lot of emotional pain. (And it does!) :/ So my bashfulness mixed with my anxiety over dating essentially created an aloof demeanor that he interpreted as me disliking him, which I'm sure was of course very discouraging. (He once described it as being like "talking to a wall," which hurt me a lot, but probably not as much as it hurt him.) Then he started dating the other girl about six months ago, I was completely and utterly crushed (and honestly still continue to be.) But then he broke up with her, and he never stopped treating me the same way at any point.... so I'm trying to figure out if even now, after all this, he could possibly still be interested in me.
