How can I show my interest?

A female United States age 41-50, anonymous writes:

There is a guy on my course who I have always fancied but not shown him I’m interested as I can be quite shy! It is only recently I realised he is interested in me by some of the things he says, he singles me out in the group and I catch him staring at me. I can come across as aloof so he probably thinks I’m not interested.

I will see him tomorrow and I am going to dress a bit more feminine than my usual baggy attire. Would he get the hint through my change my appearance? I don’t know whether to add him to my WhatsApp contacts so he can see my profile picture as my picture can show I am quite fun. I hate being shy but need to show my interest.

This is verified as being by the original poster of the question

My dress change worked. I was watching him collect something from the teacher earlier and he went to look at me as he sat back down and he caught me looking. I also caught him looking at me in the library. I have noticed he is discreet and only speaks to me when others are not around as when the lesson finished he came up to me. He then sat with me for 5 minutes and spoke and then said he will let me get on with my work and I said it was ok I was in no rush. Inside I was thinking please don't go back to your seat! As he was walking away he put his finger on my back and said I have the answers. I feel a bit anxious as he joined Plenty of Fish in the New Year and I know he is entitled to look elsewhere as he is single but I’m selfish and don’t want him to meet someone else. A friend said not to worry and that most men don’t get replies on Plenty of Fish.

Honeypie agony auntI have to agree with Code Warrior. You are OLD enough to talk to him. IF you are interested you might have to do MORE than just dress up, for all he knows you might have a date later on and thus dressed up, IT DOES not signal interest per se.

You can't LIVE life hoping people will "catch your hints" Come on! I get that you are shy, but HOW would you conduct a relationship if you can't even talk to a person?

And profile pictures mean nothing. If you are a FUN person, show him IN person not over some app that teenagers use.

You are a GROWN woman, you got this!
