When I caught him looking he wouldn't look away, just smile a little and carry on, direct eye contact. I'm not one really for eye contact so it could just be me over thinking things, but I must've caught him about twenty times in the space of three hours! He asked me a few questions about myself, too, like what my favourite song was and stuff like that. Oh, and when he looked at me he had a look in his eye...I can't explain it, but it felt very warm and kind.I know it doesn't even sound like anything so I don't know why I can't stop thinking about it. Especially since he's been interested in this other girl for a while. He won't admit it, but it's obvious. Apparently he's trying to get over her, or something like that, cause she screwed him over.So if he likes another girl I just need to stop thinking about it, right? It probably meant nothing and it's just me over thinking everything, like always? Reply to this Question Share |

I understand why it might make you uncomfortable as he's expressing interest in someone else...but if you're interested in him and he's not seeing anyone else, you are absolutely entitled to stare back at him too...and even go up to him and start a conversation.

If you caught him locking eyes with you 20 times in 3 hours I'd say he definitely at least thinks you're really cute. If he didn't, why would he be looking in the first place?I always thought of eye contact as being a good way to connect without talking to someone. I could be walking through a coffee shop, lock eyes with a guy for a few seconds and immedietely feel connected to him in a way.If you like him, just hang out with him, talk a lot. If he likes you and isn't the shy type, he'll let you know that he likes you back. Until then, just remain friends and see what happens. As for the other girl, she screwed him over, he can do much better...he will figure that out sooner or later.
