Dating

Yeah,it's possible. He could be shy. However, its a huge waste of time and energy to worry about him. Go for the guy that's willing to let the world know he is interested in you. In time the other guy may realize he needs to speak up. When you come across a guy such as this, you make the first move and approach him..If it's him who you want..

The catch is that you cannot make him say something that he is not willing or ready to say. But you also need to remember that just because he doesn't say it, that does not mean that he does not feel it. You can tell him how you feel, as long as you do not expect anything in return. But do not say it just to get him to say it. What does his body language say? How does he act around you? It sounds like you think that he may like you. He may be waiting for you to say it first. He may be kinda shy. It's ok for you to say it to him if it is how you really feel, just don't be upset if he isn't ready to say it back. Good Luck.

Answer 2: Well, as the previous answer said, you cannot get a guy to tell you they like you. But there are some things to help "persuade" him to.

As you probably know by now, each guy is very VERY different. What works for one may not work for another. If you want a guy to tell you they like you, you have to hint to them that you like them as well. By hint, I mean you may have to do things you aren't used to.

When the 2 of you talk, dont continuously speak of only yourself. Ask about him, like how was his day? Or what was good/bad about it? Try to keep eye contact.

"What about if you cant talk to him?" Easy! Just do a polite smile and wave. It'd mean the world to him.

"What about if he doesn't wave back?" If he doesnt wave back, DONT ASSUME HE DOESNT LIKE YOU. Ive seen it happen too many times.Just do it often and he will wave back.

"What if we are by our friends and they usually annoy us?"

Ask him to just take a walk with you. Walk and talk about whatever. Normally (from my expiriences), thag is about the time when the guy admits to liking you.

I hope this has helped you. I know this because I am a guy, and a former shy one at that.

It means he has no respect for you or your boyfriend and your b/f is tacitly approving it.

Hang on a sec...do you like your boyfriend? Or is he second best? Do you think that your boyfriend would be OK with it if he knew how you really felt about him? If not, break up with him, regardless of whether or not his friend likes you! Now if you want to know if the likes you, read the related question "How can you tell if a boy likes you?". But don't even think about that until you break up with your current boyfriend! -DJ Craig

There is a high possibility he does and it depends what age you are. Usually this behavior is in elementary school and even early high school, but once you are in Grade 10 up dating usually occurs and the teasing stops. If you really like him ask him out to see what reaction you get from him. Marcy

There could be many reasons, but, it sounds like she is not interested in you and either doesn't want to hurt your feelings or is simply dishonest and rude. I would call her back and say, "If you really don't want to talk to me then just say so and I'll leave you alone." The ball is in her court then. It's best to get the truth from her so you know whether to move on or not. Good luck Marcy

Before you say anything to him you should smile at him from a distance. Keep making eye contact until he notices you. Then, walk up to him and put out your hand. Tell him "hi, I'm _____" Comment on something that has to do with the immediate situation like "Wow, this is a neat party" or compliment him on his feature that you like. Don't compliment his clothing, men are not interested in hearing what a woman has to say about his fashion. Men love to hear, "You have such nice eyes" or "I can't help myself, I have to tell you that you have an infectious smile."

Be bold and most of all, be yourself. Also, find out who his friends are. If some are girls, you got lucky! Hang around his friends and when he comes up and starts chatting, join in the conversation. Say something to catch his interest and start a conversation between you and him. Smile a lot and compliment his opinion.

some will,they call it feeding his ego. men have sex with females all the time liking them or not. it is primal in men. some women do the same

Get a friend you really trust to find out if he likes too. You will have to break the ice. Talk to him--Just be yourself. That's what he likes you for, anyway.

The only way to really know if someone is interested in you is to ask. It can be scary to ask, especially if you're shy, but it's always worth it. If they don't like you it might hurt your feelings, but it's always better to know. There will be many people who do like you and will be happy to tell you.

== == * Women certainly can be a mystery and difficult to figure out, but then again, some men can be just as difficult. Women have PMS (their periods) and this is a time when they can become irritable, moody, burst into tears over nothing or even pick arguments. Hide! LOL There isn't much you can at this time of the month but duck! Some girlfriends are crazy jealous and this is not a good start in any relationship and it will only get worse so it's to the best interest of the boyfriend to let her know he doesn't like it (as long as he's not provoking the situation by flirting with other girls) and he should let her know he won't put up with it and will end the relationship. Some girlfriends can say one thing and mean another and you must have heard that quote, "Women have the right to change their mind!" It's true! You either love her enough to try to deal with it and if not you'll have to communicate your feelings to her and give her the choice of making a better effort of getting along with you. If not leave! * It has been my experience that most girlfriends 'become difficult and act crazy" if there has been a breach of trust in the relationship. A good question to ask yourself is whether you have been truthful in your dealings with your girlfriend. Are you hiding something because you are afraid of her reaction? Or, has she learned something about you that is causing her to mistrust you? Most people become 'difficult' when they are not given enough information to make an informed decision about their relationship. Is your girlfriend asking you for information that you are not prepared to give her? Please remember that trust takes a long time to build, can be easily broken and is difficult (but not impossible) to rebuild. Most girls - and women - do not suddenly 'become difficult and act crazy' ...they usually have some justification, at least in their own mind. If you have been up front and honest, then try talking to your girlfriend about this change in her behavior. Perhaps she has heard something from another person that is making her uncomfortable. Communication is the key to building trust and building trust is the key to a difficult and crazy-free relationship. Congratulations for asking the question in the first place and for being willing to explore avenues of resolving the problem! * My ex broke my trust and i was always afraid when I did not know where he was. Before this I trusted him and never minded where he was. He never reassured me that it would never happen again.

* In my own experience, (I am a girl) I know exactly what you mean by difficult and acting crazy because I've been there and done that I'm not going to lie. I think its because girls become too overprotective and defensive at the same time . She's looking to see if you still care by

constantly asking you to do things and talk with her (over protective)

then she might come off a little mean when she isn't as nice as she usually is. ( This is because she is insecure to the fact of thinking you don't care and is being defensive to save herself ... ) she might seem to think that you don't care , so she wants to show that she doesn't care either or maybe she's just moody, but trust me if she's with you try to tell her that you love her and compliment her so she'll believe it.

* It depends. Women are people, just like men, so they handle relationships in unique ways with varying degrees of success. However, if your sweet girlfriend suddenly changed personalities, there are a few likely answers. When people are dating they have a honeymoon phase, where they are infatuated and agreeable. After six to 18 months this wears off. 1)Your girlfriend might be showing her true personality, and if this is the case, the woman you knew was an illusion brought about by the bliss of courtship, and it's time to bail. However, it's possible you're just falling out of the honeymoon phase. If this is the case, you need to reevaluate how you feel over a fair length of time. Decide whether you really like your girlfriend or whether you just had the hots for her. Do this over a period of a few weeks and really think it through. 2) Somethings bugging her about you. Girls have a hard time dealing with a few issues in a relationship most of which revolve around infidelity. If you have ever cheated on her, you messed up, she's suspicious, and you need to confess. Maybe she'll break up with you, maybe she won't. Be a man and tell the truth. If you haven't cheated on her, then you have nothing to fear. Just approach her and note that she's seemed a little down and not as close to you lately, and ask her what is wrong. She might not tell you right away, because it's hard to express a lack of confidence in your partner, but insist that you are worried and concerned. Also, tell her that if she doesn't feel like talking about it right then, that's okay, but that she can come to you whenever and mention it later when she's comfortable. What this accomplishes is it shows that you care, and that you notice her. She'll tell you and you can ease her doubts and things will be well. 3) Something that isn't you is bothering her. Maybe she lost a big job opportunity, or a family member died. Maybe she's just depressed, it happens. Follow the steps in the above paragraph, but don't offer her advice unless she asks. Women are different from men in this degree. They want to talk about their feelings and they want you to understand how they're feeling. When you start suggesting things, and possibly interrupting her, she gets her feelings hurt, because it trivializes her feelings and capacity to work through these problems. If you suggest things, make them actions you do together. For example, if she tells you she's just been depressed lately, you can suggest that you and she go on a vacation together or have a picnic together. Also, a bit of clarification on PMS and periods. PMS is Premenstrual syndrome, which affects about half of all women. It can make women moody, but this is not true for the majority of women. Menstruation varies from girl to girl, and can range from not painful at all to completely debilitating, causing intense pain, nausea and diarrhea. Also, don't attribute a girl's feelings to PSM or her period. People don't feel new emotions because of PSM or menstruation, but they're more susceptible to feelings they already have. For example, if your girlfriend just moved and is desperately homesick, she might seem fine 3 weeks out of the month and sob herself to sleep each night of the fourth week. She didn't suddenly start feeling lonely, she's just couldn't maintain her stoic exterior. It's a bit like being drunk in that respect. If a girl is having a hard time they are looking for kindness, not judgement. Show that you care and love her when she's upset, but make sure she's the right one for you. * It is true that everything can't be blamed on a young woman's PMS (menstrual time), but, indeed many young women go through some major hormone changes. it is much better to practice good communication skills to find out the reason why she is acting out of character.

If you're interested in the person's thoughts and feelings, it's emotional attraction. But if you're only thinking about how hot a person is and having sexual thoughts about him/her, that's sexual attraction. Here are more answers from WikiAnswers contributors: * The difference is that you can be atracted to someone maybe their thoughts and feelings toward things, and always have something to talk about...etc. The sexual atraction means that you know you like the person's body and you may not have a lot in common when the sexual atraction is gone. Basically, the difference is love vs. lust. If all you have is the lust, then it's not true love and won't be. == == * I think the phrase 'being attracted to someone' always means attracted in a physical sense i.e., sexually attracted. * If it is soon after you have met them, it may be the pheromones. Or not. But, give yourself some time with them before trying to determine whether it is one thing or the other. For those of us who have been "there," the time of meeting is not the time to mistake one for the other. * Being attracted to someone only means that you have an interest in that person. It is usually associated with wanting to spend time with them. It may or may not include being sexually attracted. You might not even know why you are attracted (common interests, feel comfortable with, easy to talk with, reminds you of someone else, etc.). Being sexually attracted to someone involves an interest which includes physical intimate contact. This might be driven by lust or the desire to express deep emotional feelings or some combination of lust and emotion.

they are too scared of rejection to make the first move

It's totally okay to say hi to him. Just don't get into anything personal to bother him. Sometimes just a smile when you walk past him shows that your not there to annoy him. If he's your friend and you guys are tight, then ask if he wants to talk.(that's normally what friends do). I'm sure he would appreciate it being your friend.

It depends. How did you ruin your chance? I was so afraid of him rejecting me, that I rejected him first. I think he was trying to get me to open up to him, but I keep pushing him away, and I think he's done now. The situation is kind of complicated. I'm not even sure if he liked me. I had this feeling that he did, but I wasn't certain. I guess that's the reason why I kept pushing him away. I was afraid that I was wrong, and that he didn't like me after all.

That sounds more like an invitation to talk about business matters "any time". If he were expressing personal interest he would probably find ways to look for you or spend time with you away from work or discussing non-work related issues. On the other hand, sometimes a guy doesn't know how to open a personal discussion and use whatever is available.

SHE WILL GIVE YOU HINTS, LIKE CALLING, HAPPENING TO BE WHERE YOU ARE MORE OFTEN. TELLING MUTUAL FRIENDS THERES A SPARK. BE WAY TO KNOW IS ASK HER OUT AGAIN..THAT CAN HELP YOU MOVE ON WITH YOUR LIFE..

Most of the time it's just surprise.

They are probably kinda embarrassed and a little grossed out. I know a guy that my friend had a crush on...a BIG crush. She made me email him and tell him that she liked him. He was kinda confused and sorta not very happy about it. Thankfully, she does NOT like him anymore, but it was an embarrassing time for BOTH of them.

totall surprise. it's going to be really tense for some time too. Way back in middle school, half of them just lie and say they can't date until 16. xP But mainly, the guy is a little grossed out, a tiny bit flattered, and both are embarrassed.
