text: Be forward in this case and ask him.  Tell him you would like to take your friendship to a different level, and ask if he feels the same.  You can't lose.  IF he says no, you can quit wasting your time.  IF he says yes, you have your wish.  \n\nDon't wait, act.  There is nothing wrong with being the pursuer, just because you are a woman.  I am a man and I think it would be hugely flattering if a woman were that bold and interested in me.  At least I would be thankful and honored for the approach, even if I were NOT interested.\n\nFrom there you will have your answers.  Don't be afraid.  All you are doing is expediting the enevitable (whether good or bad)  by being forward. Best for you both!!!\n\nGood LUCK!!!!
