writes:How do you know if a guy likes you or not. I know this may seem simple but I find myself in a very confused situation. I am doing an internship for my professor as an undergraduate. There is a graduate student working with the professor doing research. I help both of them. I have fallen in love with the grad student throughout the year I've known him. He has been so nice to me he is a gentleman and everything that I look for in a guy. There is an age difference though but I like it because I am very mature for my age I'm currently 22 and he is 32. While we're working he always gives me random hugs, or rubs my back things I find different from a guy to do. He always offers to walk me to my next class. However he hasn't made a move so I don't know if he is simply nice or a flirt or if he does like me and something is stopping him. I have no idea. Any advice would be great!

 you need to spend time with him outside of university. He isn't going to make a move in this environment. Sounds like he is showing signs of liking you, but I haven't seen you two together. You might have to make the first move, risky but depends how much you like him? Could you handle rejection...

 It sounds like he might like you, but I bet the age difference is what is stopping him from making a move. Yes you think you might be mature, but he is whole new level of 'mature' beyond you, so he knows that chances are it wouldnt work out between you two.
I always believe that with men, if they REALLY like you then they will make a move and nothing will stop them. When a guy is interested he will pursue that girl until he gets her, or she turns him down. There is no middle ground.
So if he just flirts with you but never makes a move then he is not that into you I'm afraid and you should probably move on. When a guy likes you, he will make a move. No guy on earth is that shy to not make a move on a girl he REALLY likes, unless he is a 15 year old boy. In your case he is a grown man and will know how to pursue a woman if he wanted to, so that is your answer right there - this grown man has not made a move therefore despite his flirting he is not interested.
