How can I find out if he is still interested without seeming desperate?

Question - (27 February 2010) 3 Answers - (Newest, 28 February 2010)
A female United States age 30-35, anonymous writes:

I started dating a guy about 2 months ago and he asked me out a week after we met. We got really close very quickly after we met but then he had some family and health problems going on so he was distracted so we didn't really get to see each other, which was understandable. Now it's been about a month since we have seen each other outside the gym we both go to and I'm confused on whether he is still interested. He sends a lot of mixed messages, like sometimes he acts really happy to see me and initiates conversation but then other days he doesn't really acknowledge me. I’m not sure if he knows that I’m still interested or not but in the beginning he was so forward that I feel like he would’ve just asked me out again by now. I am thinking that I just have to either take a hint or buck up and tell him I still have feelings and need to know if he does too but I'm unsure of how to go about this. I want to ask him is he still feels a connection but am scared to and unsure of how to do it without being awkward or coming off as desperate. Help please!

i disagree with boo completly as a guy i know about this that hes just not that in to you shit isn't true

invite him over and just ask its really that simply

i mean i try to remind women no to read in to men to far most of the time we dont plan ahead like at all.

so you can't expect him to ask you on a date for 2 reasons

1.if some thing went down in his family and some one he loves died he could be in alot of emotional pain

2. he fells just like you do and wants to know if you still like him and thinks your sending him mixed messages

just reestablish your connection and it should be all smooth

Laura1318 agony auntJust invite him out and have a chit chat over coffee. If he is interested in you ,he will accept. If not , move on .

Or you could just text him and ask how he is and see how he responds to your message.

boo22 agony auntHi there hun . The best thing you can do is nothing. Put the spotlight directly on him. If he wants to be involved he'll make it known.

I fear though that from what you've written it's not likely.

When I read your post the first thing that came to mind was that it read like one of the letters in the book 'He's just not that into you'

I wish i could be more positive but that's my feeling.
