this guy i like has made it pretty obvious he likes me back. we've flirted and talked and even held hands. but for some reason he hasn't made another move. its been a few days and we've barely talked. i haven't told him i like him yet, and he hasn't told me, but i think we both know. how do i tell him i like him? i dont want to have to make the first move, but i guess he's shy.
sometimes i feel like it's my cousin's fault, because him and my guy cousin are best friends. and everytime he and i hang out, my cousin gets kind of mad and we both have noticed. i dont think its fair though because my cousin and MY best friend liked each other once, and i didnt give him a hard time.
HELP. i really like this guy and i want to move it further.

It's your cousin that's causing problems, so it's you who'll have to make the first move. That way he knows that you don't care what your cousin thinks.
When a person's family causes problems, that person must be the one to get rid of the problem and indicate their wilingness to go on. It's because you have a conflict of interest between the boy and your cousin. You have to show them both whose side you are on.

Why all of this game playing? Can't you just find a way to tell him how you feel. It's not like a proposal of marriage or a long time commitment, or mutually exclusive commitment. Just couch it terms that you can be more or less comfortable with say, "Hey, I'd like to get to know you better, why don't we go out for coffee, lunch, a movie, etc. No big leap just tiny steps. A journey of a thousand miles begins with one step. Get into different social situations and see how it's handled.. Go for it...I am an old geezer, but I run into women I knew in high school who said that they liked me and wanted to go out with me, but they didn't make a move and I was unaware of any 'signals', but I would have gone out with either one of them...and I was shy also -- so we never had that opportunity. What's it going to do to you if you take that little step -- will you be eaten by Rotweilers?
I think the answers above already said what I would have said about the cousin...you know

You don't have to go out on a limb with this guy. Just keep doing what you're doing and maybe push the momentum of the relationship foward a little bit at a time til he picks up on it and makes 'his move'. He probably likes you and is just unsure about how you feel about him. And then as you said, he could just be plain shy. Either way, help him out a little bit. You'll both be happy you did from the sounds of it.

Why not ask your cousin if there's a problem? It sounds like the guy you like isn't comfortable dating you because he's friends with your cousin. Things could get awkward. Or maybe your cousin isn't comfortable with it because he doesn't think his friend is right for you. Either way, you should ask your cousin what's up.

tell ur cousin to quit being a douche bag and just make the move. if the dude u like is too much of a p***y to make the move than ur just gonna have to do it.
