I asked a question a while ago about this guy at the gym and i took the advice from people to act uninterested and see how he reacts. Well i tried this and now i am more sure of him liking me what do you think!? But he still wont make a move! why i don't know!?

I have seen gorgeous girls walk in past him at the gym or be near where he is and he doesn't even take notice of them but he looks at me wherever i am. I went there the other day taking the advice deciding to not even look at him much and acted oblivious to his presence. And I saw him go past my eye path a few times and then looking after to see if i looked? Anyways, i could see in the mirrors him just standing there talking with his friend who by the way always looks at me!? Anyways, when i was walking round to get a drink i looked in the mirrors and he looked at me and started working out which i got the impression he was trying to impress me. Then he stopped working out when i went back to my machine, and did the same thing again when i left!!?

(btw these mirrors reflect the another side of the gym so he wouldn't be able to see when i look at him, unless i'm on his side. But i can see when he looks at me... It is really hard to describe!) ....Last time i'll ask do you think he likes me!? And if so why doesn't he just make the move to talk to me?

I don't get why do guys do that? When they have the girls attention they act uninterested and then when she doesn't show you interest you try to get her attention!?!

Drew21 agony auntI have to agree with Cerberus. The question becomes are YOU interested in him, or are you just enjoying the attention?

Open the door. Smile at him. Wink at him. See what develops.

If all else fails, go and strike up a conversation with him.

"I don't get why do guys do that?" HAHAHAHA "When they have the girls attention they act uninterested and then when she doesn't show you interest you try to get her attention!?!"

Look who's talking OP, you're the one doing that not him. You're the one "acting" disinterested, and whoever gave you that advice is an idiot. He's probably looking at you and checking out your ass and tits, now that you're acting disinterested he can look at those more often and point them out to his friend because he's not going to get caught.

Stop playing games, stop sitting there playing mind games thinking he's going to come over and make a move, when you keep blowing hot and cold. OP why would he come over to you, when you go from looking at him a lot to trying to ignore him, what do you hope to achieve?

If you want a guy to ask you out then you have let him know you're open to that. Stop playing games OP, stop thinking about this so much. Next time you pass him in the gym smile at him and say hello. Next time your eyes meet his gaze smile at him, then go about your workout as usual. OP you have to open that door for him. He's not going to magically get the hint when you play games. You have to be you, you have to let him know you're approachable and not some weirdo that stares at him in the mirrors and quickly looks away, pretending to be disinterested. Stop playing these stupid games you read in cosmo or some other thinks is the best way. Most of us won't approach a girl unless we're sure she'd be open to that. So let him know you're approachable.
