I am intersted in a guy but feel like my friend might be in the way?

So there is this guy..... I knew of him before but never thought anything about it. I thought he was cute but nothing more!!!!! Well... a group of us hung out the other night and had so much fun. One of friends came to the bar with him but as a group. She didn't seemed interested at all as she was talking to another guy. She is one to talk to multiple guys and mess around and that's not me. She didn't seem into him all night and laughed about how she had dropped off the guy she was talking to at another bar and came to hang out with us. We ended up all after partying and she didn't seem into him at all! He was super flirtatious with me and took us both home. He dropped her off at home where the guy was that she is "talking" with. He took me home as well. The next day, I messaged him on FB bc I couldn't find my ID. He checked his car and didn't find it. He then went on to say it was great to meet me and we needed to hang again. I told him for sure!!! He asked what I was doing that night but I told him I had work the next morning. Then he gave me his number and told me to holler at him some time. I told him I'd love to hear from him and gave him my number but told him if him and Britney were starting something I wanted to stay out of it. I was blunt and straight to the point!!!! A couple of days later I just went ahead and asked Britney if she was into him. She told me no and to go for it. She said he had called her to hang out but they didn't. She said she didn't feel the chemistry and gave me the go. I told her I didn't want this to be a game and I didn't know how I felt about that. She told me to stop being silly and to go for it!!! I am 28 and don't do drama. I just don't want to contact him and us communicate some only because my friend doesn't want him? They only hung out super casually.... I just never go for anything!! I worry a ton and live in a small town and never meet anyone new!! He seems like a catch and I hate to let it pass by. It might not end up being anything but at least I might gain a new friend! Should I message him, text him or let it be? She is probably talking to 3 guys right now..... so it isn't going to kill her. I think they casually met and were attracted to each other and that's it. I won't play games though..... I know if we did start texting or what not that she would quit. But who knows what he is thinking!!!! I had also told two of our mutual girlfriends and they laughed and said "who isn't she talking to"

Just contact him, and say, "I'd really love it if we went out sometime, I'm going to be free on these days next week" or whatever.
May as well just do it. You have nothing to lose. It sounds like your friend doesn't care about him in that way, plus you already discussed it with her.
