Hi, so I've been in love with this guy for so long, I'm so confused if he likes me or just being friendly. So a year ago, I would always catch him staring and glancing at me a lot. I'm a very shy person so I just avoid eye contact. The past few days, I would also always looking at me, and while we were at the hallway, I was standing next to my friend , and he walked past me and looked into my eyes without even blinking or breaking the eye contact, until I got very nervous and broke the eye contact and looked down, and this situation happened about 3 times. My friend had also caught him looking at me at the hallway multiple times the past 2 days. He would stare at me whenever we are at the same area. The problem is I'm a very shy girl and I'm afraid to start a convo with him, and I'm afraid he would reject me. He just keeps staring at me, and he would always like my photos and comments on them on social medias, but never starts a conversation. What do you guys think? Does he seem interested? How do I give away some signs that I'm interested in him without it being too creepy?

CindyCares agony aunt That's one case where social media intervene to save the day, rather than complicate everything :).

So you are shy, he is shy, he does not make a move, you neither, it can go on for ages. As the other ladies say, the simplest thing would be just saying " hi " to him yet I understand how for you this may feel a bit too "close".

But, he likes your stuff on social media. So, what better excuse to contact him with ... anything really. Any hook that he may offer. " I see that you liked my dog's pic...I did not know that you liked dogs, do you have any ? "

" Thank you for liking my pic ! In it I look a bit bored because I don't really like going to X, ( where the pic was taken ), I prefer going to Y in my spare time, what about you ? "

Now of course these are random, goofy examples which probably are not appliable to your case. My point is simply: start from what he " liked ", throw him a bait, and see if and how he takes it.

Good luck.

I think, from what you've said, there's a huge indicator of interest. If you're too nervous to talk in person, maybe try on social media like he has been. Like or comment on some of his posts, give him that little nudge to say that you're also interested. If that fails, DM him and ask if he wants to grab a coffee or just hang out sometime. I know it can be terrifying but, as they say, the worst he can say is no. As much as those two little letters may hurt, it is much better than being left to wonder.

Complicated92 agony auntHi there,

All of these assumption of yours can be ended if either one of you took the initiative to start off a conversation. Its frustrating to keep thinking if he likes me or not? If he's interested in me or not. If he doesn't why would he do such things?

My advice is to buck up your courage and talk to him if you feel like you're having feelings for him. It doesn't has to be face-to-face, you can maybe chat through social media: Facebook, etc... Maybe he's also waiting for you to start off the spark? No one knows. If you're dying to know what is he thinking about, you can start by talking to him.

At least you tried? Never try never know. =)

Hope this helps!
