There's this guy from my youth group...

We both went on the trip to Toronto last week, and we spent a lot of time together!

Before the trip, we barely knew each other...We had talked a couple of times, but really only because we were friends with some of the same people (I'm friends with one of his best friends, and one of my best friends is also friends with him).

But now...We know each other, and I feel like there's a definite connection.

During the trip, we spent at least 4 hours a day together working in a soup kitchen. There were basically never more than 11 people in the kitchen at a time, and 4 of those people were usually people we didn't know and so us as a youth group tended to stick together a lot.

Even when we weren't in the soup kitchen and we were with our whole group (in the morning our youth group was split up between 2 soup kitchens) we would talk a lot, and walk together with his arm around my waist. And, I have a bad ankle, and he was really great about letting me lean on him when it hurt and stuff like that.

We also found a common bond with what we learnt from the week. All of the youth groups got together one night for worship and sharing reflections on the week so far, and we both shared similar stories. After that, we talked about that sort of stuff.

Yesterday, I texted him and we talked for 2 hours about everything...Our day, the trip, our friends, and how we should hang out sometime this week if we can, or, next week seeing a movie with some mutual friends (and when he said that, he said that I would make the party that much better )

So anyway...

I really, really like him, and on the trip it seemed like he felt the same way, and he's still being great AFTER the trip. I don't know what to do though!

I've never liked a guy like this before, and I've never really thought that the guy I liked liked me back. (There was only once that this ever happened, but it wasn't the same because we barely knew each other).

Should I say something?
Should I just try and get to know him better?
Should I wait for him to say something?

Basically, I'm just lost.

I know that this probably doesn't really seem like a big deal or anything, but to me, it is. I've been obsessing about it ever since one of the leaders made a comment on the trip, and that is not a good thing...
