Guys, if you stared at a girl like this what would you be thinking?

I'm walking home and my neighbour comes out to get to the trunk of his car and then stops to touch his hair, thats when he notices someone walking by and turns around to look at me. So when he looks he almost smiles but not really. Its kind of like a corner smile that you can't really say is an actual smile.

He looks at my face and then down to my body, like head to toe. By now he's fully turned around facing me. At this point I get shy and look away to my left, he carries on staring for about 5 seconds until he finally turns around and gets back to what he was doing.

What would you be thinking?

I dont think im attractive, and this guy has known me since I was 5 but we don't talk anymore at all because his mum doesn't like us lol

Quick Disclaimer: I dont mean to be that girl who asks these types of questions "what does it mean if a guy stares at you?" etc. Its very cringe, I know. But I do want answers lol. Sorry for being pathetic

I'm not crushing anyone's dreams. She mentioned that he's known her "since she was about 5", so I'm assuming he's an old man now.

I'm not Anon acting big headed. There's a difference dude.

I dont even like him, maybe a mini crush. But he's not my usual type, and I'm only asking out of curiosity
Can't make conclusions from this alone, if he continues doing this, he's probably attracted to you. A guy shouldn't stare, it's fairly creepy.

He does stare everytime, but this one was a bit dramatic tbh. Thats why I'm asking about it. I figured he only stares because we used to talk as kids sometimes and we know each other. I never thought much else of it before

Lool you needed to mention that.
I think in general guys stare a lot. It could mean he likes you, or it could mean nothing.

Indeed, I agree with @Qxi.xli it is a fifty-fifty likeliness

Yeah, it's a bit odd. Maybe he misses the times when talking to you was normal, we change a lot from childhood though. When guys look from head-to-toe they're either admiring your appearance or surprised at how much you've grown.

Thanks for the compliment, I'll save it into my mental shed :smile:
He’s probably looking at you like that out of surprise.

Especially if you creeped up behind him like that, it’s a pretty natural response.
I wouldn’t say it’s anything to do with you being attractive.

It’s just respectful to face the person and see if they want to talk to you or not.
