writes: Though we clicked immediately, we had a pretty messy breakup half a year back. No screaming or tantrums but we simply stopped speaking and haven't spoken since. Trouble is, we both both participate in a volunteer group and are constantly mixed in the same circles like every week or so. It seems like he always sneaks glances at me from across the room; sometimes our eyes will meet but both of us will look absolutely neutral.one time, he came up and stood really close behind me- I didn't even know he was there till his friend called his name and gave him away. We still won't acknowledge each other publicly though. He's something of a flirt but he hasn't had a girlfriend/ any meaningful relationships since.Any thoughts? I'd love anyone's input! Thank you in advance.

Of course he probably still finds you attractive and might glance at you from time to time, but this does not mean he is interested in my opinion.
I would say move on pretend he is not even there, unless he actually speaks to you of course, then I would just be friendly with him.
Good Luck.x

I don't see anything here that suggests he's still interested. All this could just be a coincidence, or it could be that you're seeing what you want to see, rather than the truth.
If you are interested in him, then you need to be the one to step and up and speak to him. That's the only way you'll know whether there is anything there still.
A word of warning though - if it was a messy break up and your relationship went wrong, exactly the same problems that were there then will be there now. So even if you two did get back together, if you didn't address those issues, nothing would come of the relationship other than another break up.
If you really like him, then talk to him. That's the only way to be sure. But, like I said, be careful that you don't just wind up hurt again.
