belocchoc129 Posted August 29, 2012 Posted August 29, 2012 So earlier in this forum I posted a thread saying that I'm interested in a classmate and would like to get to know him more. First I need to say that he seems really shy and awkward. Don't think he's ever dated anyone before. So I finally worked up the courage to ask him out (via text) while we were exchanging some texts. He's been showing signs that he was really nervous around me while I noticed he could talk to other girls just fine. He was responding pretty quickly then suddenly stopped when I asked. He finally responded the next day saying 'Maybe. I think I"m busy all weekend but I'll have to see'. So I moved forward by saying next weekend should be fine since I would be out of town that weekend anyways. Finally, on the weekend when I was back, I texted again and asked if he wanted to hang out. He didn't respond at all which kinda turned me down. So I just shrugged it off and let it go. Then it turned out that I wanted to borrow his book for another quarter. So I approached him again and asked if that's possible. His attitude was extremely awkward. He was staring at the ground while I was walking towards him. When I talked to him, he was still staring at the ground while smiling shyly and blushing too. So I just don't get it. If he already knew that I'm interested, why didn't he just say yes? And he could've said no if he's not interested. Why need to act all this awkward?
manup Posted August 29, 2012 Posted August 29, 2012 Ahhhh you're now experiencing what most men go through on a regular basis. Make plans if he flakes again he's simply not interested, lick your wounds and move on to the next one.
turt Posted August 29, 2012 Posted August 29, 2012 Does he know that you're interested in being more than a friend? He may be too nervous to go out with you without knowing that you are definitely interested (might sweat, shake, blush... around you and thinks he'll screw up any chance). Just make your intentions clear.

I'm sure he is cute with his blushing and all but you are a much more direct person and it's unlikely he would be able to handle your forwardness long term. This sort of personality mish-mash isn't worth the effort in my experience
