GUYS ONLY: How LONG does it take to......?

[.]

So i know this guy through friends but we never met in person. we messaged each other on facebook a couple of times and he messaged me asking me if i would like to get coffee or tea sometimes so i said sure and gave him my number. so we've been texting for about 3 days now but he didn't ask me on a date yet!
i am 21 and he's 26

Ask him where is his favorite coffee shop

about as long as it takes for him to ask you and to have free time.

Give him some time he's just getting to know you. I'm sure it will happen in a couple of days be strong

WAIT!!! are u sure that friend of ur friend is not actually ur friend who uses his id to talk to u and make a scene out of it...'IF' that's not the case then its quite normal bcoz some guys(maybe im in that category too) r jst too shy to talk to anyone directly(maybe that's the reason he first contacted u on facebook and then via messages.)
A gud news for u is: one of my friend's boyfriend met her on fb first(although of same town) but took 3 months before asking her out...but the best part is they are very loyal to each other (for 3 years now)..therefore guys like these(shy) are actually cute and loyal rather than being a hunk and cheater...so enjoy ur dream date in ur dreams for a while..but he will surely ask u out but it might take a month as well...ENJOY..
