I fancy him but he is not really paying attention to me. Should I pursue this?

A female United States age 30-35, anonymous writes:

There's a guy I see around a lot at university - everywhere from mutual friends' parties to the gym to in lectures (we do some of the same modules). I'd noticed him looking at me a lot (as in, all the time, and every time I caught him doing it he'd glance away really quickly) but I didn't really know him so thought nothing of it till we introduced ourselves at a party.

He seemed really nice, but since then he's just been totally ignoring me. Me and my friends walked past him on a night out last week and I went to say hi, but he didn't really seem that interested in chatting to me. Sometimes I catch him looking in my direction, but whenever I try smiling at him he just stares back blankly. I don't get it!

I think he's quite good-looking and I kind of fancy him, but I've asked mutual friends, and though some of them say he's alright, one of my friends (who's really outgoing and nice and not the type of person to just dislike somebody) told me I deserve better than him, as he's a total prick and full of himself.

Should I bother trying to take this any further or not? I like him and he's always keeping an eye on me, but he seems a bit arrogant and he's so confusing...

Guys and girls stare at attractive people all the time. It's a natural reflex. Don't read anything into it.

His flirtatious looks don't mean anything if he hasn't done anything to show that he likes you. You've had plenty of opportunity in your shared activities for him to show interest. He hasn't.

I wouldn't waste anymore time on him if I were you.

Wait for someone who smiles back at you, doesn't stare at you blankly when you pass by and isn't arrogant :-)
