He does not talk to me in person, only by email. Is he too shy or what?

Question - (9 February 2010) 2 Answers - (Newest, 9 February 2010)
A female United Kingdom age 26-29, anonymous writes:

There is this guy in my school, he's in two of my lessons, and I think he likes me, but I'm not too sure.

When we're in our computer class, he e-mails me (he always starts convos first-I never do, too scared XD) and we often have funny and quiet random conversations. Those conversations last for few days, the longest one was nearly for a week. He usual ends the conversations (much to my sadness) without replying back to my e-mail, and then he doesn't e-mail me for weeks, which upsets me a lot. Our last convo was few days ago, in which he said that he wanted to see me in town. This made me think that he likes me-he asked me out, didn't he?.. Also, in that convo, he ended each and every single e-mails with a kiss-'x'.

Another lesson that we have together is music, in which he doesn't talk to me at all. To be honest, he never does in person, only on e-mails. He completely ignores-makes me feel like I'm invisible. I try to ignore him back, too, but can't help but wonder why the hell he doesn't talk to me in person. I feel really upset by the fact that he doesn't even say hello or crack a smile when he sees me...

Is that guy sending me mixed signals or what? I am really confused... I really like him-his e-mails make my day..

Help is greatly appreciated, thank you so much!

Blod agony auntI've been in this situation. And from experience, I'd say he fancies you. But I'd imagine he's too shy to talk to you in person. He might not know how to react or how to approach you. Emailing you is easier than risking embarrassing himself in front of the girl he likes, if you get me. With emails, it's easier to be yourself and you don't have that person staring back at you. It's just a screen with a personality behind it.

If you like this guy, then trust me, talk to him. You'll have to make the first move and break the ice somehow otherwise you'll find yourself in a sticky and silly situation. You can talk to each other in emails so what really is the problem in person?

If he made some kind of communication with you in person, such as smiling or saying 'hello,' then I'd have said he probably just likes you as a friend. But the fact that he doesn't even look at you means he knows you're there. He's deliberately trying to avoid catching your eye.

Just do something to bring him closer if that's what you want. It needs to be done asap. Otherwise it just gets stupid.

Good luck. X

Yes, he probably is shy. The other problem is that your friendship has been started over the internet, rather then in reality. You need to speak to him. Be brave.
