| Ok, so I've probably have put myself in an awkward situation, but I'm sure I can get out of it. I'm in college and there are 2 girls that we'll call HB1 and HB2. I first met HB1 through a student organization and late in the fall semester, we became friends. Once we went back to school for the spring semester, we began to become good friend, often studying together and joking around a lot on FB and whatever. She would say stuff like "I'm awesome" and "We need to hangout more" but I never really let her know that I liked her because I thought it would make things weird.
Anyway, during beginning of the semester our student organization also had a info session for new people and that's where I met HB2, which happened to be a good friend of HB1. I thought HB2 was cute, but never really thought of her in that way. Anyway, in the middle of the semester, I finally got the courage to ask HB1 out; to which she said yes. The "date" (more of a hangout) was to salsa, and it wasn't exactly the greatest. That following week, things became different between us, not in a good way either. We didn't really do anything together anymore or talk as much. After that week, I didn't make an attempt to ask HB1 out again because I was afraid of being rejected.
Anyway, as we move onto the end of the semester, I began to notice that HB2 was showing interest in me. It became pretty obvious when the student organization had a social event off campus and as we were leaving she grabbed my arm and walked with me the entire way back to our car. Also did I mention that HB1 was also walking right in front of me. Later, other people began asking me if I and HB2 were dating, to which I replied "no." But I began to really like HB2 the more I got to know her. Later, she would always stand near me if she could and I think she's a really cool person to talk with. Once, completely out of the blue she said, "you smell really nice!" to which I accidently replied loud enough for everyone else hear (including HB1), " You smell good too."
Anyway, during the end of the semester, I noticed that I had became labeled as the "nice guy." I don't know if the girls are actually attracted to me, or if I'm like the gay best friend every girl wants,:x. HB1 and I began to talk again, but not like before. She said "You'll have to come see me and HB2 this summer if you come to campus. (they are taking summer classes...and they are roommates). I said sure, but I have only talked with HB1 once since then.
The thing is, I really like HB2 a lot. And I know that the only chance I have with her is to remain friends with both girls. I am wondering when I go back to school in August, what can I do to build attraction with HB2 without looking like a player/man whore? Also, I can't tell if HB1 is interested in me or not. She's the type of girl that plays hard to get, and may have just pulled that trick on me as a test or something. Either way, I want to get to a point where I can ask HB2 out, without making things really weird. Any advice?
