Question - (8 January 2011) 2 Answers - (Newest, 8 January 2011)
A female United Kingdom age 30-35, anonymous writes:

There is a friend of mine that i really like. He isn't what i usually go for but i ended up falling for him. We talk all the time about anything and everything but whenever he looks at me (he normally stares at my mouth? what does that mean?), and he knows that i caught him staring, he goes bright red and either tries to cover his face causually with his hand or he just smiles, laughs and looks away. He also always stares when i walk by him or when i am working next to him.

I told him i liked him as more than a friend, and he said that he wasnt interested in me that way, so i thought fine, we shall just be friends and ill try and stop my feelings. So i went and celebrated christmas and was getting over him until i came back and he started acting really shy.

Lets just say, he would get my attention by flicking things at me, when i would look his way he would go bright red but make no attempts to hide it, he would say things that like "I am straight!" when i comented on how he was sat, (i said he was slouched), then he added "Answered two questions for you there". The staring has become somewhat creepy. I would move to one side of the room and when i turn around to speak to my friend who is seated next to him he would always be looking at me.

My friend said he would always be telling her what i was doing, like commentate? Yeah.

Although, recently, he has been ignoring me and it is hurting me quite a bit. We always spoke and flirted, but now, whenever i attempt to start a conversation, he would blush, say one word, and that is it...nothing else.

He still stares, but whenever i catch him he doesnt smile, he just looks away. I am starting to wonder if i have done something wrong, so i plan on asking him. I just wanted to know if it seems like he likes me or not.

Hon, didn't this boy tell you he wasn't interested in you that way? Every boy loves girl attention but they run hot-n-cold on the ones they just use for that. Girls they like, they don't pull away from

I think he likes the adoration you give him when he needs a pick-me-up but does he like you? Not like you like him I'm afraid.

I think he does like you, but I don't think he knows you like him. He's done the flirting, the talking, and he's clearly shy. But I think perhaps that you're not responding the way he wants, so he's pulling away.

I would suggest that instead of asking him if you've done something wrong, you ask him out on a date. He's very shy, and I don't think he has the slightest idea that you like him. And unless you step up and say something, he'll just pull away and you'll lose your chance.
