How can I get this guy to open up to me?

Question - (18 August 2006) 2 Answers - (Newest, 27 August 2006)
A female Denmark, anonymous writes:

I met a guy while I was doing a preparation course for university. We are still in touch, chat on MSN and text each other ocasionally. Now, he seems nice and i like him a lot and am also massively attracted to him. To me, it is as if he flirts with me , but I am always the one to initiate conversations on MSN or text him or even talk to him. I have questioned him about it but he says he never starts conversations. This is really starting to irritate me as what I look for in a potential bf is the interest and the courage to talk to me properly and to seem bothered about me. I know for a fact that this guy has had some bad experience with his ex and this has put him off jumping into relationships, which is fine, but his standoffishness is really rude and i am frustrated as i find him fascinating and attractive, and I want to see where we can go. How can i get him to open up??Thanks

people close up so they wont get hurt again, he cant trust u wont just lieve him for the next guy, u have to earn his trust and show him that u r not like his ex, take ur time with him and dont rush him, he will open up when u gained his trust

A reader, anonymous, writes (19 August 2006):

Let him come to you when he is ready. Begin initiating conversations with him less and less, and if he is interested he will take it upon himself to make the first move and strike up conversation with you when he sees that you are online. Don't be offended by his behavior. I'm sure it's nothing personal. Some people just aren't good at striking up conversations. It happens. If it really bothers you so much that he won't ever talk to you first, you have to give him a little push by not always being the one to start the conversations. When you sign online and you see he is on, just wait for him to talk to you. If he won't, sign off and try again some other time. He will eventually come to realize that if he wants to talk to you he will have to say hi. It's really no big deal. I have friends who I must say something before they will, and it's not too much of a bother to me. It's not like just because of this a relationship is impossible. Maybe you're just being a little too pushy. I hope this has been of some help. I wish you the best of luck and I hope everything works out okay. Take care!
