So I got myself in this guy's radar... he looks i look he smiles i smile. I do things to surprise him all the time (like ask him for something when he least expects it, and savor his reaction and his gaze long after i've walked away) we never had a conversation before, and i don't want to be the one who starts one because i am really shy when it comes to talking (i don't mind flirting though! in a none direct way) I guess he's sort of shy too because all he seems to be doing (AFTER WHAT SEEMED LIKE AGES TO ME!) is walk past raise his brows and smile or sort of wink. at first when i was a little subtler he froze when he saw me and turned around turned back and wasn't too sure of what he's doing... he's getting a bit more confident. but again it took me a while and i had to be constantly around... I don't want to be desperate by being around all the time, but i don't want to disappear and make it look like a i don't care or just messing around... how long is too long to be away? I know if i stay around a lot I'll look desperate... we don't bump into each other anywhere else but here.. and i only go when i have work to do... am I on the right track?
thewhiterabbit8 answered Tuesday March 24 2009, 11:55 pm: i think you should back up a little bit. did it ever occur to you that he thinks he looks desperate to you? or that he thinks you don't like him? guys think about things like this too so what you could be reading as a mixed signal could just be confusion and shyness. i do believe you are on the right track but i also think you should just talk to him. i know you're shy but guys love a confident woman and when you take the initiative it could show a lot of confidence in yourself, which is sexy. and when it comes to really liking someone, i mean REALLY trust me, when you are around, even when it's not often, he'll pay attention. hope this helped.
