whats going on??

ill try to keep this as brief as possible.

ok so a guy joined my school at the start of last year and sat by me in maths. recently at a party we got close and after the party we and a group of people all walked home together. since then we've gone to parties together etc (like walking there). only problem was, he never really said anything at all so i had to talk all the time. now im really chatty so this wasnt too hard to think of stuff to say but it made me feel uncomfortable that i was the only one saying anything.

at one party i was told he was getting upset cos i was dancing with "everyone except him" now i wud've danced with him too had he been inside but anyway thats not important. he's told me that he never said anything cos he really liked me and was scared he was gonna say the wrong thing so i reassured him that it didnt matter what he said but still he stayed quiet.

since then hes asked me out but i sed he was too shy and i needed to get to know him better (i know that in his old school he was really funny and talked loads so i wanna get to know that side of him) so yea we had a nice long chat.

now in school he doesnt really speak to me but i see him loking at me sometimes but wen i catch his gaze he looks away. now wen hes in the quiet room and i go in, he normally leaves soon after. i dont know whats going on cos ill talk to him and he answers but doesnt really carry on the conversation. can anyone help me with what the hell is going on?? thanks in advance :biggrin:

He thinks you completely rejected him, so he's stopped trying.

1. He didn't believe you.

Or


2. He only wanted a quick lay, and talking for much longer would be far too much effort.

he may feel intimidated (nothing you've done), if he's shy and you're really confident. If you like him, have a chat to him a reassure him that you havent rejected him and you would like to see where you end up

i know its not the 2nd one cos he doesnt seem that type from talking to friends from his old school and from talking to him. i know u might just think im really gullible but hes a really nice guy and i dont think hes like that at all
Ugh, word to the wise. Avoid the quiet ones... they so weirrrrrrrd.

Why would you say that?

To the OP, the guy thinks you totally rejected him, so he doesn't make any more attempts, but since you catch him looking at you, that means he still fancies you.

Because its true? I'm quiet and I'm weird, its what makes me so special :biggrin:

OP, if you want a relationship with him you need to actually do something about it too. He cant be expected to do all the work. Since you did reject him (he saw it as that) he's going to admire you for a bit (the looks in class) but he'll be over you soon enough unless you make an effort too.

Lol yeah I agree. He's decided he hasn't got a chance. I do that. Only I keep being friendly...just not as so. Then if things change I might be able to take advantage!
