I just met this guy.

He has shown interest and stuff, asking me out etc

However, he is still hang up over his ex gf.

But I still want him.

to be honest, i think he is asking you out is because he wants to try to forget about his ex girlfriend.
but you can try, try changing him, into him liking you.; take some time, as time goes by you guys will eventually fall in love with each other.

Give him time. If you try to get him liking you while he hung on his GirlFriend, your efforts will be lost. Besides there's nothing you can do to make him like you. Just be yourself. If you want to you can confess to him. But Only after he gets over his girlfriend or he'll become confused.

You should let him be. It's best for you and him. Right now, he just wants to fill the void with you. The sooner he realizes you can't do that with people, the better. I would know. I was that guy. I still am that guy.
let's all not give a crap and see if someone cares . . .

Eh... you have to make sure if he likes you or not.
It really depends though, are you willing to get hurt?

Because you can try... & help him get over his ex.
It's a 50/50 chance. Either he will literally go head over heels for you or... just be caught up with his past.
After all guys are very typical, they are simple minded. ^^ I hope everything works out.

Yep just give him time, most likely he has not become accustomed to the thought of being with someone new. After all, his last girlfriend probably made a large impact on his life, so she was everything to him. When he thinks of "girlfriend" he thinks of her, probably not you, YET. Just give him time to adjust and to realize that he needs to move on.

Even if he started to like you, his feelings for his ex wouldn't immediately disappear. You may still want him, but you have to understand that he might not be over his ex by the time you "get him." For me, it's a matter of wanting to deal with dating someone who is still not over someone else. Not worth it.

Dont confess. Just be around, and show him that his ex doesn't have to be the center of his love life.

Also, don't ask him about his ex all the time. Or else you'll become the friend he talks to his problems about. That's not necessarily a bad thing, but when he talks about his EX all the time, it's different.

Just be a normal girl and maybe try to attract him. Dress up for him, flirt with him but not TOO obviously. Or else he'll feel like "i can have this girl whenever I want." and might not fall for you.

from personal experience, if a guy is constantly talking about his ex, he is most likely still thinking about/missing/wanting her. you may just be someone for him to use to get over his situation. stay in the friend zone as long as you can -- it may be difficult since you're that interested in him, but it will save you a lot of heartbreak in the long run. when he can be honest and open about starting something new with you, and you can be sure that he is willing to leave the past in the past, then you can move forward with an actual relationship.

Agree with the first part of your advice, but the last half seems like it will just hurt her. My current gf did the same thing. And all I'm doing is hurting her without her even knowing.
