I thought he liked me but now I think he's avoiding me

A female United States age 30-35, anonymous writes:

Hi guys I wanted to ask how to stop thinking a lot about someone you have a crush on but the thing is I don't actually know this person I know it sounds creepy but he goes to my school and I think it was a love at first sight type of thing. This has never happened to me before btw. Although it may seem like I was in an illusion I actually think he was interested in me because he could've avoided me at school but he was always close to me like sitting in the cafeteria close to me and he made eye contact with me. We never talked though because we are both painfully shy. but now he doesn't do any of those things and I am very depressed about it. It seems like he is trying to avoid me and there is no more eye contact. Do you think I was just making myself believe he was interested in me?? Please don't judge me. Thank you for reading!

Hi I can't add him on Facebook because I don't know him (name). I will try to talk to him but like I said I think he is avoiding me ): I don't see him waiting at the spot where I usually am after I get out of my classroom anymore, no eye contact just ignores me. I will just attempt to forget him because it is a foolish crush and anon is right it is basically physical attraction. Thank you guys for reading!

k_c100 agony auntMaybe you were reading into signs that might not have actually meant anything, but then again he could have been interested - there is no way of knowing I'm afraid!

Can you try adding him on Facebook? That's an easy step if you are shy, you dont have to talk to him to do that. If he accepts your friend request that is a good sign!

As tasteofindia said, someone has to break the ice otherwise you will never know how he feels about you. Add him on Facebook, or go over and say hello to him, leave a note in his locker.....do something otherwise this will bug you forever!

There's no such thing as love at first sight. I know it sounds romantic, but it's also impossible. When you "love" someone just by looking at them, that's just a strong physical attraction. You love the way this guy looks, but you still don't know anything about his personality. Like the other reader said, you need to break the ice. Be brave, make a move, and try to get to know this guy. It'll sure beat sitting around wondering every day.

TasteofIndia agony auntI'm not judging you! It sounds like you're both painfully shy, and therefore how can we know if he likes you? Sitting closer to you in the cafeteria may just be a coincidence! It sounds like you need to break the ice, here. Go and say hello! Or if that's too much pressure, when you make eye contact, give him a big smile. That's a good first step.

Be gutsy!! Somebody has to take the first step! And I think it ought to be you! Good luck! :)
