He's sending out a lot of mixed signals!

Question - (21 June 2009) 3 Answers - (Newest, 23 June 2009)
A female United Kingdom age 30-35, anonymous writes:

Hey,

I've been speaking to a guy I know on msn for a few months. We go to the same college and he is very good friends with two of my best friends. He decided to add me on msn after we became friends on a school trip last year. Since then, we have spoken a lot online and get on quite well.

I don't see him at college but I speak to him almost everyday online. I've grown to like him a lot. My friends have been dropping hints that he fancies me, but that may be because they know that I fancy him. I don't know how he feels but he seems to like me online.

Last week, I saw him for the first time in a long time. My friends were with me but he only spoke to them. He completely ignored my presence and acted as if I wasn't there at all. He didn't even look at me! Although he knew exactly who I was. He is shy and quiet but I was surprised that he ignored me as I tried to say 'hello' to him. As soon as I signed in on msn that night, he had started a conversation with me again but I know that he knows exactly who I am!

I am completely confused. He's sending out a lot of mixed signals!

Some advice would be much appreciated! Thank you X

Thank you! Next time I see him I will try to start a convo with him. He keeps on starting a conversation with me online even though he doesn't seem to any reason to do so. Then he doesn't respond much when I actually see him. But so far I don't think I've really helped the situation. I'll do a better job next time. Thanks guys. X

Well, hi

I disagree with the previous post. I think he like you but does not know how to express this because he seems to be more comfortable relating to you in the online world, and as you said he is shy. I am certain that he does not feel good sending you mixed signals but you will have to somehow encourage talking more outside of the the online context, like watching a movie together or something and you don't have to label it as a date or anything, especially if it makes him feel more comfortable without labels. It was rude of him to ignore you when you were with your friends. It should probably even be the other way around where he ignores your friends, although that wouldn't be nice either. However, forgive his rudeness for now and give it a shot. You like him and I don't think he would spend so much time online talking to you if he didn't fancy you in some way.Good luck

If he fancied you he'd want to see you. There are no mixed signals cause he likes talking to you online but doesn't want to hang out with you or anything. Not seeing you or spending time with you should be your first clue he ain't into it.
