...and they don't look away, what could this mean? This happened to me with my crush recently; unfortunately I don't recall his expression because my vision isn't very good :rolleyes:. I've heard before "when you catch them staring and they look away they may like you!". But what if they just keep looking?

He likes looking at you. You need to go up to him and talk with him so he can ask you out.

The interesting this is that he seems like a shy guy...I would expect him to look away. :confused: He is very difficult to read!

I know you are looking for the responses to be in line with what you want to hear.....it could also mean that the crush has heard things about you i.e. you have a reputation and they are just thinking how they can verify that ?????

In my experience a girl doesn't even look but makes herself available to talk to alone. Go for it they know women are smart and stupid. beautiful chaos.

Surely you mean no one person is both? I mean to say all women are smart, will be like saying all men are horndogs

The ones that don't look away are usually sizing you up to see if you'll fit in the back of his van. Tread carefully.

Ah....someone has been watching too much criminal minds or Dexter. She did say the guy is her "crush" though.....so you know she will ask how high if he asks her to jump :D

I'd like to consider myself a handsome guy, going by what others say and how women act around me.

 

I used to be very insecure and had extremely poor social skills, the farther back you go in my childhood, but as I'm getting older I find that I'm getting more outgoing and daring and socially competent..

 

If I intentionally hold a gaze with a girl, I'm personally trying to send the message that I fancy what I see.. Nothing more, necessarily. I might do it even if I think she'd never be interested in me (although I wouldn't know unless I actually asked out a total stranger.. which I probably wouldn't do)

@Do_The_Herp Thank you, it's nice to hear the perspective of someone who does this!

 

Now all I need to do is actually talk to the guy :o

Yep. Just giving you the perspective of a random young dude in his early-mid 20s. I'm at a stage in my life where I notice women staring or glancing at me, and sometimes we lock eyes, but I'm not at the point where I'd just ask someone out on a whim, even if we're making some small talk and we're smiling and laughing and whatever..

 

That's just me right now, I'm daring by my own old standards, but still not daring enough for it to actually do anything for me. You might have to be "aggressive" in a way.. Generally speaking, a guy may not be interested, but me personally, I would welcome it and not be turned off by a woman being strong and willful enough to show her interest and go after what she wants.

 

Can't speak for other "shy" guys, but if a cute girl who I saw frequently but didn't know, suddenly tried to get me to talk when I'd see her, that'd encourage me to take the rein and start conversations that I believe are welcomed.

 

If she started getting a bit flirty at some point or actually suggested going out, I'd gladly ask for her number to call her later that week, we'd hang out, hopefully we'd like one another's company, etc. Doesn't have to be that complicated.

 

Of course, not every guy will be like me. They may take advantage of you reaching out if they're not genuinely interested but have nothing better to do.. If I wasn't interested, I'd make it clear in some way.

I think catching someone looking is just the perfect reason to talk to them next time you see them and just say something like, "Oh, hi, I remember you from the other night. I'm _____ "(handshake).

He makes me really nervous, I just hope he doesn't figure out I like him or think I'm weird :laugh:!

Ironically, this is the sort of **** that I worried way too much about in the past.

 

Nowadays I just don't care. If I see a hot girl, I want her to know I think that she's hot, even if I know I'm not going to talk to her.. Never know, she may be thinking the same about me, and might remember me if we ever cross paths, even if I forget. lol

 

Let's ask ourselves real quick.. What's the point of having a crush on him? You're attracted to the guy. You'd like to be around him, make out with him, whatever the case. Eventually, for these things to happen, he's going to have to find out that you like him and decide if he feels the same.

 

So what if he doesn't like you? It doesn't mean that there's anything wrong with you. You simply have to know not to take it personally if he's not interested.

I've seen him around for awhile (about two years), he works as a barista. I didn't see him very often until I started devolving feelings for him (about 9 months ago). I go to the shop once a week, or once every two weeks. I suppose I'm very intruiged by him because he's mysterious, kind, and quite handsome too :love:. I was always way too shy to have any kind of conversation with the guy.

Just talk to him. Seriously. Maybe even after you've been talking to him for awhile, go up to him, have some small talk, and slip him your number and smile before walking away one day. Or you can go for the jugular and just get it over with, you'll be just as mysterious for him as he is to you.

 

You can't develop trust-worthy emotional feelings for someone with whom you've never really spoken to. Be careful. You're in a bit of lust here, not love

(yet)! :p
