What should I do CD?!?!?!
Ask him to the party. What if you don't and he meets someone this weekend?

Carpe Diem.

Is he a previous friend who all of a sudden turned hot? Was he never single when you knew him before? Basically what was the reason you didn't date him 12 years ago?

I was the kinda shy freshman and he was a jock..nuff said LOL

Wow. I had a similar situation on fb...the younger sister of some girls I knew in highschool contacted me when she noticed my relationship status changed about a year ago. However, she lives >400miles away....otherwise I'd have gone on a date with her.

Post a status message that you're in the shower.

Game on!

Unfriend your cousins ASAP. They might steal him.

Don't overthink it. Guy's are simple creatures. He will not understand subtle. Invite him to your party: "It's great to see you on here. I would love to have some time to catch up. I'm having a party this weekend if you would like to stop by."

Not trying to be a dick, but just being honest....if he wasn't interested in you then, and he's even more a "hottie" than he was in High School....what makes you think he's go out with you 12 years later?

I agree with the others that say invite him to your party. If he shows up solo, you'll know he may be interested. If he shows up with a girl, or blows you off (like doesn't respond to your invite), you have your answer as well.

People change, and tastes change. I know I'm not attracted to the same type of people as I was 12 years ago. Haven't you yourself grown & evolved in the last 12 years?

Ok you're right, I'm 26 years old too, but here's what I do know...

You're probably less attractive at 26 than you were at 14, and you probably put on weight (everyone has).

He was a jock in HS and didn't ask you out. But now you say he's got a great body and looks very attractive in his pictures, so his value has obviously increased in your eyes. Do you really think you're the only woman who recognizes his value? You don't think there's other women chasing him? I'm just sayin His Value+ and your value- (negative) since high school =/= you having a good chance with him.

Just puting it into perspective. Don't get your hopes up. Play it cool, drop hints you'd like to see him again casually, and if he's interested he'll make it happen. Good luck.
