how to get my guy friend to talk to me?


Question Posted Monday April 3 2006, 8:34 am

I know this guy who's a workaholic. He's confident, witty and articulate.

He's my ex colleague. Although i hardly know him, i seem to be having a huge crush on him. I caught him staring at me.

However, i do find him a little weird.

Although he responds so well to my email on work issues, he doesn't seem to answer yes/no to my little personal questions.

I find him extremely shy..like for eg: when i asked him whether he goes for swimming or not.
What is so illegal about asking that question?

One day, i called him up to chat up with him. He acted like a total stranger and said that he was engaged with his mom.(like he was trying to avoid me)

Why is he acting so weird and so shy when all i want is to be his friend?Plus he's a succesful engineer!

What should i say to him when i call him again without being invasive?

There are terms in here that are very confusing to me. I'm betting that English is your second language. Did you mean to say that this guy told you he was going to marry his mother? Or did you mean "engaged" as in - he had plans with her? I'm not sure I understand the situation correctly but I'll try and respond.



It sounds like this guy is either not interested or he is very naive. Either way, a relationship with this guy seems like a waste of time to me. But if you really want to try and pursue this "friendship," I'd start out by asking him out for "coffee" or "tea" or lunch. Those types of activities are innocent and avoids uncomfortable situations.

From what you described, it sounds like a lost cause but Good Luck anyway. I hope it works out the way you want it too.
