There is this boy

i've been knowing since we were teenagers and while we don't talk to each other, we always look at each other. This has been going on for about 5 to 6 years now and i'm not the only one saying he's looking at me (i'm just clarifying this so you don't think it's all in my head).
But it makes me wonder, does he like me? If yes, why doesn't he make a move? I had tried talking to him but he was quite indifferent so i didn't bother again.
If not, why is he looking at me? It's just a bit confusing.

Sounds like he likes you. I'd suggest just being friendly towards him, etc., and seeing if he gets the courage to say anything? I mean, I guess a lot depends too on whether you like him back?

guys always look at girls. It doesn't mean anything. He probably does it to a lot of girls

Thank you for your answer. I like him but we are very different characters so i don't think he would like someone like me. Also, when i was out with my friends he sat with us(he knows my friends) and talked to everyone but me, he didn't even look at me so i thought he's not interested.

I'm not a girl so I don't know how exactly but couldn't you give him a hint if you're interested

Thank you for your reply. Well, i had once tried talk to him but as i said he wasn't interested, he didn't seem to want to talk. And another time when we were on our own waiting for the bus we didn't say a thing.
In order to find out his true intentions use the eye thing that been going on for year to ur advantage...eye flirt with him and see how he reacts. It's completely harmless and no one will ever kno. Here's a link....

I think that's the case too, it's just that i don't like this confusion of ''does he like me or not''. I mean, if he didn't look at all, i wouldn't give it any more thought.

Keep trying. Guys are usually very receptive when nice girls show a social interest - and you can then just take things from there if you want to.

You're quite right of course but a lot of the time when the guys look it really does mean they actually really really like someone.

If he really wanted you, he'd do something about it. so just ignore him and dont stare back in future and see if he does something about it. Don't get sucked in thinking he really likes you, boys will shag any number of girls if they think you are putty in their hands. that's what guys generally want by the way, to shag, so don't get romantic

hmm nah I'd disagree. guys just want to get it in then move onto the next girl they've been staring at

If you think that then I suspect you haven't met any guys who're actually nice / decent.
Maybe you could try talking to him about it?

Thank you for the recommendation. I think i might try talking to him one more time and see how it goes.

Yeah I must either attract bad guys who screw me over or there's something about me that makes all guys want to treat me like that regardless of them being ' nice/decent'

But this isn't about me this is about the OP and her lovely little love affair which I'm sure will blossom into something beautiful.

That's the point, i think it's highely unlikely for him to like me because we have very different personalities and i don't think i am the ''kind'' of girl he wants.

Thank you for answering. Well, we don't talk to each other, we have spoken only a few times in the past and talking to him about that would make me seem a bit obsessed i think. Whether i am is a different subject though haha :tongue:

You're welcome :smile: Why do you think it will make you obsessed may I ask?

Haha i was just kidding. It's just that i like him and i would be happy to know if he likes me back or not so that i stop thinking about it. I don't like being in a state of wondering ''is it or is it not'' :smile:
