No she doesn't need to be able to ask men out. A man who's interested and has a backbone will do it himself. Relationships that start with the woman directly chasing the man never work out well for the woman.

Ask him out for a group event, like a happy hour with a few friends. Maybe if he gets more comfortable, he will either ask you out or let you know somehow why he's not asking you out. (shyness, disinterest, gay, etc.)

Sounds like you two are perfect for each other - couple of indecisive and passive dependent personality disorder duds with nary a backbone or an assertive bone between them.

You like him. Throw out the rules. Ask him out.
Or wait around for him to ask you out and be unhappy/annoyed when it doesn't happen.

A 26 year old man's friends are not supposed to be all up in his love life like that. He's a child let him go.

Bold prediction: he's way less shy in the sack. You're expecting Ward Cleaver, but I bet Mr. Shyboy ends up being more like Evan Stone...Good luck!

Maybe he's not that interested. Do you want a passive guy?
