Mixed Signals??? What is this???

Question

there is this guy who is 17. after we did a small project together in class last year he would be glancing at me alot more like i would be walking with my friend but he would be looking directly at ME. this happened a bunch of times. this started OVER ONE YEAR AGO.

also, last week he was staring directly at me as i was walking up the stairs and we made eyecontact for 1-3 seconds because i happened to look his direction but i didn't even know he was there. also once i was walking behind him and he made his posture straighter after he saw me. we never talk though.

today i was walking past him in the hall we were the only ones in there and i saw him and he didn't hardly even look or make eyecontact with me it was weird i really like him i was looking at him a little but he didn't even look at me. why does he always look at me when he thinks im not looking but when he knows i may be looking at him he does not acknowledge me??? im confused we dont talk either

Answer 1

Maybe he thinks you're not interested. You have been exchanging glances for a year and you havent spoken to him. Why not just talk to him? Say the subject you did was biology, just invent something like, "Hey remember me? We did a project for Biology together last year? Well Im having a bit of trouble in that subject this year and I was wondering if maybe you'd be able to help me with it? I remember you knew it pretty well." Or....instead of just exchanging glances, next time you make eye contact, smile and say hi casually.

Hes shy but hes not psychic. Hes not going to suddenly realize you're into him if you dont talk to him.

Answer 2

he is probably just extremely shy. been there. done that.

Answer 3

he is a chickenshit teenage boy

if you like him go ask him out.  he will say yes.
