We're in the same friend group at college and have been talking privately pretty consistently for the past 3 months. I like him and I'm pretty sure he likes me, but as of right now we're just friends.
I went to his place for the first time two weeks ago to hang out with him and his flatmates (mutual friends in the group, we're in the same bubble). It was fun. We had drinks and I got a little (a lot) touchy with him. Little excuses to brush up beside him or touch hands, etc. But then it got to the point where I was leaning on him and he was running his hands through my hair. A pretty drastic leap from the friendly zone we've been in.
Then last week, we were going to hang out 1 on 1 at his place, but his flatmates once again hung around the whole time so there was no point where we could be alone. It was still fun. Once again, we got touchy (no drinks this time though) and it got to the point where we cuddled, which is not something I've ever done with a person I haven't been dating. It was very affectionate, but not sexual in the slightest. We were watching a movie so I don't think the flatmates even noticed.
From what I understand, this guy has little to no dating experience. I'm not even sure if he's kissed someone yet.
We've texted a lot since, but I'm getting a bit antsy about the fact that neither of us has acknowledged what happened/our feelings.
There haven't been any plans to hang out since and I'd prefer that he be the one to ask. Not that I'm against asking, I totally would, but I just want some proof that he actually wants to hang out and it isn't just me. Especially since I was the one who initiated a lot of the touching (I frequently asked him if he was comfortable/wanted me to stop, and he was very clear that he was comfortable JSYK). I just want something reciprocal so I know it's not one-sided.
I get that it might be difficult from his lack of experience, so maybe I should just bite the bullet and ask him out for an official date? I feel like he likes me back, but I don't want to make him uncomfortable by finding out I read the situation wrong. Would a guy cuddle with a girl he doesn't like? I feel so confused.
Thoughts/advice on the situation would be much appreciated!
TL;DR! - Guy I like has hardly any dating experience. We ended up cuddling even though we're "just friends". I'm not sure where to go from here.
