<human>: 23F here, Been flirting with a guy[24M] I sometimes see at family gatherings (he is not blood related to me). I decided that I would like to date him. a couple of problems. I invited him over to my place but he said he was busy and hesitant and never really followed up. But then in real life he complements how I lost weight, my dress and the other time he was cool with touching my thigh for a split second (not in a creepy way) I texted him asking if he wanted to hang out but it seems his phone reception is always bad or something

Now I don't know if I should wait to see him face to face and talk to him about it or call him. I don't want to scare him away, I just want a straight answer even if it is "no"

Can you provide a brief overview of the text?
<bot>: guy giving me mixed signals, I dunno if i should ask him face to face which may take a while since I barely see him or call him and ask
