Question Posted Tuesday September 20 2005, 8:11 pm
My friend asked the guy I like what he thought about me.
He didn't really know her, he recognized her as my friend but didn't even know her name. But she was trying to talk to him and he just told her he needed his space and pushed her back saying "back up, we need to be this apart" and telling her not to get close, and she asked what he thought about me he didn't answer and just went with that "your getting to close" crap. So could someone tell me what this means???

Wait, don't walk away. I'm being serious.
If he really did not like her standing that close, which is possible, then he really hates people being physically close to him. If physical touch is important to you in a relationship (I know it is to me! I couldn't not hug my boyfriend!) and this is the case with him, then he is probably not a good choice for you.
If it wasn't about her proximity, then he was hiding his feelings deep within himself. This is never a good thing to do because it bottles up. He may like you and not want to say it because he is afraid of getting emotionally close to someone. This is very common. Usually it is because the person is afraid of getting hurt. Many couples can work around this problem, or they get therapy.
In the end, I suggest you ask him out. Don't be afraid that he won't like girls doing the asking out. What is this now, the 21st century? Puh-lease. We need to rise above close-minded gender roles. If he says no for that reason, you don't need him. If he says no simply because he doesn't like you, well, OUCH...but you'll heal in time. If he says no because he really does have a problem getting close to people, just remember that it's HIS problem, not yours. If he says yes and has a problem getting close to people, you will have to work hard in your relationship but it will be worth it. And if he says yes and has no problems, you'll probably have a fun time. I'm not saying that it will last, but that's okay. You're meant to learn from relationships so you can apply your knew knowledge to the next relationship you're in.

It's pretty freakin obvisou when someone you barely know comes up to you and asks if you like a specific person that they are trying to find otu so that they can tell you. i mean how freakin often do you walk up to a random persona dn ask what they think of your friend?
