Interest? Or just friendship?

Tagged as: Friends<< Previous question   Next question >>
Question - (2 April 2009) 1 Answers - (Newest, 2 April 2009)
A female United Kingdom age 36-40, anonymous writes:

If my team mate in college whom I'm moderately close to always smiles when he sees or talks to me (my friends observe that). Generally in a group he would single me out to talk or ask random questions sometimes. And when there's a group joke or something he would look at me to see if I was laughing as well. He says my laughter is really infectious.

There were many times in class where I've caught him staring or gazing at me. I only had the courage recently to look him in the eye and smile (though if we are in a group i dont look at him much cause I'm shy). He doesnt look away and has this tendency to hold prolonged periods of eye contact with me whilst in conversation. And he seems to like to say my name alot, like I always hear him mentioning my name.

Other ambiguous signs would be calling for group meetings often. Being really subdued (like he doesnt look at me, has nothing to say, fiddles with his phone, looks at the floor) when we are together alone although (excluding the times we are doing work)he's usually very hyper and talkative and energetic. And he doesn't seem to mind sitting really near me or like mild physical contact like brushing past or something. Being nice in general.

I can't tell though. Cause he hasn't been in a relationship before. And though he has quite a number of female friends, he seems closer to his male friends. We are really really busy in college and hardly have time to contact each other outside of meetings and all. So.. I don't know how to tell and don't know what to do. Help?

A female reader, crimson_kiss United States +, writes (2 April 2009):

crimson_kiss agony auntDo you like him? cause the signs of him taking an interest in you are all there. Some men don't know just how to come out and say it. He could be shy, so go easy on him. If you really want the answer on whether he likes you or not, just ask. I understand that you are shy as well, but one of you is going to have to make the first step here if there is ever going to be a connection.
