(Crush issues) Is he interested?

[CurlyHairDon'tCare]

I'm sooo confused...:confused:


A year ago a cute well known athlete at school approached me,he asked for my number but I didn't give it to him because a lot of girls liked him and I thought he might have been a player and I didn't want drama. Months later he told my friend that he was trying to 'talk' to me but he was shy( weird cause he is really outgoing and a class clown).

Eventually me and him started talking and texting. We talked for months; he walked me home side by side, called me his baby, and held my hand in front of others. It was evident that the two of us had chemistry; our eye contact was intense every day, we found out we were neighbors and had a lot in common:wub:. However, I always made up excuses whenever he always asked for us to meet up alone because I was really shy. Even though I always threw out lame excuses, he remained persistent by calling and texting me every day last summer for a date.

Long story short, I cut off communication with him after hearing rumors about him being a player and only pretending to be a good guy. I didn't respond to any of his texts or calls.:( I was wrong for not just talking to him about it..

We didn't talk for a year (I changed my #) and went to a new school. Now I'm back at my old school, I run into him on a daily basis (we're both upperclassmen).

Him and his friends give me mixed signals.:what:



1.During picture day, my class and his had to go to the auditorium at the same time. After my picture was taken I sat near the back of the auditorium alone. He walked all of the way back to where I was sitting and sat two seats directly behind me even though his class was seated on the far opposite side of the room (Just imagine a gigantic auditorium, there was an endless amount of seats). He did NOT say a word to me and I didn't realize he was there until I stood up to leave.

2.After leaving our classrooms, he watches me and gets real quiet even though he’s usually loud and outgoing. If I’m walking with a friend, It always seems like he’s listening in on my conversations because he starts walking slowly. I also catch him looking over his shoulder or watching me from the corner of his eyes.

3. On my birthday I wore a pretty lavender satin dress, and when we walked out of our classroom doors at the same time he looked right at me and said "Oooh" and kept his eyes on me as I walked down the hall. And just last week when I walked by he started staring like he was in a trance, he even turned to keep watching. I then heard him keep telling someone in the hall “That’s mine" right after

4.His friends love to play the staring game with me in the halls and sit close to me whenever possible. A close friend of his in particular walked past my classroom and suddenly turned around and said, “Hold up.” His friend actually walked back to my classroom door just so he could stand in the doorway and stare at me

.He stares at me forever and holds intense eye contact from a distance, but when we're close he acts like I'm not even there

I've noticed that he's starting to pop up more often in places where I'm at, after spotting me there. In a way, it feels like he tries to be near me yet he never says anything.

6.For instance, he has lunch a period before me. Since the first day, when the bell rings for my lunch period to eat I enter the back way doors because there is less traffic. The guy I like always went through the front doors when I seen him (he didn't see me) since the first day. Now ever since me and him held extended eye contact across the room while I walked in the back doors one day; he's been taking those doors every day now while eyeing me:wub:.


The things he does leads me to believe there is something there, but I'm not sure because I feel like he would have approached me if he did still like me. :(


Do you guys think these could be signs??:what:

[Amazerful]

these are pretty obvious signs and I think you should be the mature one in this situation and go talk to him, he is openly showing that he still likes you in some way so just go explain everything that happened with you so you guys can stop acting weird around each other

[TheLivingLie]

i agree with amazerful, he obviously likes you.

[Living For Love]

He likes you, but since you never responded to his calls and texts, he might be a bit insecure. The question in: do you like him or not? Because he probably likes you, but you don't give him much chance to be with him. If you have feelings for him, just go for it. Talk to him, ask him out, or just respond to his smiles and eye contacts.

[highschool]

I think you know the answer to your question. Theres a 99.9% chance he likes you. so now you need to talk to him and explain why you stopped talking to him and tell him that you still like him

[Derryck]

Do you ONLY like him bc he's popular, good looking, and athletic? I just need to know because my first instinct is telling me that you are very shallow. :/

Thanks Amazerful, you're right! I guess I've been kind of in denial about him still actually having feelings for me after a year of not speaking on good terms. :/ I definently have to fix this

[CurlyHairDon'tCare]

No Derryck, that's not the reason why I like this guy. You're right, my description of him could sound like I'm shallow but, I was only painting a visual image of him not being the shy/quiet type. In this portrayal, I was hoping you guys could use it in comparison with his actions towards me.

I have feelings for him because I've seen something in him that distinguished him from all of the other guys who've approached me. From our first encounter, there was something in his eyes that seemed so genuine and pure. He made me laugh all of the time, and he is well educated; his humor and intelligence attracted me even more.He also seemed to have a really good heart, and always remained very patient with me even when I turned him down. And our similarities were remarkable; one in particular was when we discovered we've lived in the same complex for years and didn't even know it until we found out we rode the same bus.


I'm 17 and I've never been in a relationship before or even had my first kiss.He was the first boy I've ever even held hands with. After waiting patiently for the right one to come along, he came and I actually could see a possible relationship. I regret how I reacted towards rumors, and there wasn't one day in an entire year that I didn't think about him or pray for a sign; any sign so I could move on.

I know it seems a little corny saying this, but it actually seems like fate keeps bringing us together.

In short, I like him because he's a special person, and it just feels right to be with him :/

Thanks Ryanair, I will try to step out of my shyness and smile at him next time he looks at me. Lol baby steps..:D

Thank you for clarifying. Yeah, he likes you. But why didn't you answer his texts?

Ok, first off...that was quite possibly the most font style changes, font size changes, and color changes that I have ever seen in a post.

Second...the good news:

Theres a 99.9% chance he likes you.
I agree, although hs is way off; I give it 99.8 max.

The bad news: a guy doesn't get a player reputation by being an altar boy and having long-term monogamous relationships, ya feel me? He certainly likes you, but be wary about his qualities that are in question and that you probably don't really know about just yet (faithfulness, commitment, exclusivity).

This complicates things.

He doesn't know all that, does he? If not, that's good; whatever you do, do not, I repeat do not, tell him that it seems like fate keeps bringing the two of you together.

All in all, I think you reacted the right way towards the rumors of him being a player. Question: during the time that you changed your number and went to a different school, what did he do? Did he go through girls like they were in the re-test line at the DMV? I want to believe that he only has eyes for you, but I can't. I think to him you seem unattainable which makes you very desirable, but once he's had you.....join the club with the other girls.

“That’s mine"



Nice colors...

.I would approach him and start talking...mind you he's probably being a player cuz whos says "thats mine" he obviously wants to "do stuff" with you so be careful....but I think you should approach him though

No, fortunately he doesn't know ANY of that lol; I just shared that for the first time on here. And honestly, I have no idea who or what all he was involved with while I attended another school. However, I do doubt he just had eyes for me and just waited for me to come back along that whole time. We didn't even know if we'd see each other again, I know for a fact I didn't think I would see him any time soon.

Also, what you've said were my exact reasons for cutting him off last yr. I remember hearing things about his reputation from someone else before my best friend even shared a thing with me.When several people are saying the same thing, something doesn't add up. So I eventually began to question his true intentions. I started over-analyzing his text messages and the true meaning behind them, eventually leading to me no longer replying to them. Maybe I should have talked to him about my concerns, but in my mind frame at the time, I felt like I was doing the right thing by avoiding him.

I just didn't know if he was really into me or just liked the idea of chasing someone who has always been seen as "hard to get". And quite honestly, I still don't even know his answer to that and I'm a little hesitant to find out.

[CurlyHairDon'tCare]

Thank you for clarifying. Yeah, he likes you. But why didn't you answer his texts?


I didn't answer his texts because after hearing things about his reputation from various people, I began to question his true motives with me. Every day I would get texts and calls from him basically begging if we could meet up alone at various places in our neighborhood.I didn't read too much into his messages until I let the rumors get to me. When he started asking me to "chill with him" at his house at like 9 in the morning and began asking for us to meet up at weird times in the day/night, I began to over-analyze things because I didn't know if he actually liked me or if he had hidden intentions. At first I would respond hours late to his messages (which he got on me about), and then eventually I just stopped responding to him all together.

At the time, I thought if I cut him off early on, it would save me a future heart break. Now that I'm older, I see that I could have handled that situation a little better and actually spoke up.

You did the right thing :cuddle:. I wouldn't trust him.
