A female , anonymous writes:

I would like to know whether either of these two men are showing interest in me.

First one at my child's school. He came past and very politely said hello and on the way home from school he passed me on the opposite side of the road and smiled at me. Every so often he has looked over at me or when has walked out of the school gates has looked behind on a couple of occasions. Then things went quite for a quite a long time and then yesterday standing in the queue at school I turned up, and I looked beyond me and he happened to be facing towards me and looked at me. Again as he went off towards a classroom he briefly looked behind. A few minutes later he was back round my side talking to someone and then I walked past him out of the gates and then stopped for my son. He suddenly walked by and said 'Are you ok there and smiled', I replied 'yes' and smiled and then he carried on. I take it he is probably just being friendly.

Second one is I know a guy who I am on a parish council with. He is friendly with me. We were all at the pub and he was sat next to me. He was obviously very relaxed as he had his legs wide open but noone else noticed as he were sat behind a table. We carried on chatting, he touched my arm a couple of times and then after a while adjusted his stance leaning his arm up on the bench and pulled his knee up on to the which happened to just face me. When I went to leave he had already finished his drink but he decided to leave as well, he stopped to talk to someone so I carried on out to my car and then I heard him say 'bye K' to me and I said goodbye to him. Yes I do know him quite well so I suppose does he just feel comfortable sitting next to me like that.

I am probably reading too much into both situations but would like someone to advise me about it.

You seem to be looking for any little sign of attraction and personally, I am more friendly than those 2 and I'm not attracted to you.

I think if you want someone in your life then you should start to flirt a bit more, and look a bit further than the guys you see everyday. Go out with your female friends and flirt and have fun.

These men may be a little bit interested but a lot could depend on the vibe that you give out. Why not start chatting a bit more? Wear something nice and smile and see what happens.

Good Luck!! xx

Teacake agony auntSounds like typical flirty behavior. If either is interested in more, they will ask you out. And still, it could be just for sex. So stay out of bed until a man starts to treat you with respect and consideration.

But, at this point, its all about flirting. Don't be the first to make a move! Let them chase you and want you. But, men always seem so much more wonderful before you really get to know them.

Since these men are at the school, should they ask to go out, why not just invite them for lunch at your home with his kids and yours?

eddie agony auntNobody really knows what they're thinking. Of course they may be interested. It's just as possible though that they're not. There is a woman who lives near my house. I see her walk her dog all the time. She's attractive and we're both married. I talk to her and find her to be quite pretty and very nice. I'd say I'm more attracted to her than many others I know. I also have to say that I'm not attracted to her in that manner that would tempt me to do anything about it. We're both married. It's just one of those things where we seem to have a good rapport. Since we're both married and not looking, it's just an observation I've made. We all meet or notice people who are attractive. Sometimes they are nice too and we actually get a chance to know them. The fact they are nice and we get the feeling that we "click" would perhaps be the bonus if someone was looking for a relationship. We always have to remember our boundaries. This is the point where many people get themselves into trouble.

If you're looking and the others are looking, you'll figure it out. People who are looking put out vibes, unless they are just flirting.
