this is probably the most frustrating guy experience i have ever had. usually its so easy for me to talk to people im interested in because i am NOT a shy girl at all.. but there is this guy right now.. idk what it is about him thats so different but im TOTALLY infatuated.. usually i can deal with it but he is painfully shy and thats throwing me off completely. i dont know how to even approach him. the extent of all our one on one convos have been like those of a 5 year old lol shy and short sentences. i have seen how he acts with his best girlfriend [and my really good friend] kerry and he is like a normal guy. but it makes things so hard for me when i can sense he is nervous or he doesnt know what to say... idk what to do =\ any ideas or similar experiences??
I think he's either playing hard to get or gay because you're beautiful in your photos and you seem intelligent and aware of other people (which a lot of pretty girls aren't.) Or he might be intimidated by you and thinks he has no chance.
He already has a girlfriend and does not want to seem that he is coming on to you so he is distancing himself from you. Don't push it.
lol no he doesnt have a girlfriend i know him pretty well.. but ancient hippie - that's really going out on the limb isn't it... i'm just scared of driving him away
i might be a girl. but i'm really shy and friends with a lot of shy guys... i wouldn't worry so much about pushing him away if he's into you, but maybe he is unsure of himself... if you just keep asking him things about himself, let him know how interested you are in him, then it might be easier for him to open up to you, since he won't have to worry about rejection... i don't know if that helps.. hope it does, good luck!
:lol: Yeah, and then in the worst case scenario, he's still incredibly shy and things are as awkward as they are now, right?
Shy guys are always harder to guage, I am one - hehe. The best way to get us to talk is to ask questions randomly in conversations. Like, instead of just popping out questions, talk about something, and then tactfully bring in a question that kinda relates. And if he starts to get quiet or distant, ask what's on his mind. He'll probably say "not much" or something like that, but he'll also be glad you asked so long as you don't try to dig in any further right then. So yeah... questions are good thing, use them to your advantage. We shy guys like that.
