Why is she holding back when I know she's attracted to me?

Question - (18 December 2009) 6 Answers - (Newest, 19 December 2009)
A male United Kingdom age , anonymous writes:

I am certain she has feelings for me but I don't understand why she keeps them hidden. She's not in a relationship and she openly discusses her dating life with me but when I make a move she backs off?

I have deliberately kept myself out of her 'friend zone' so it's not that, also I know I'm not unattractive, I have no problems in that department. To my mind we are perfectly matched in so many ways, we think alike, have similar backgrounds etc.

What's going on inside her head? Any ideas out there?

I'm looking at the mature age there .She should be beyond silly games.I'm guessing there is a hidden thing that is holding her back.Women usually won't come right out with it.They think we should know already like psychics.I would think finance, kids, personal problem some outside influence.She hits the gas then the brakes.I do that with girls drives them crazy.

Tell her how you feel. If you're right about the way she feels about you, you'll set the courtship wheels in motions.

Perhaps she's been very hurt in the past, so maybe she wants to really take her time. Or maybe she isn't as interested as you'd like to think. Take more time over getting to know her.

I would come right out and express your interest in her and ask her what is going on in her mind? She might have fears of comitment , it can be many things.

A female reader, tired of dating Australia +, writes (18 December 2009):

Have you tried asking her what's in her head? Have you asked her for a date or anything? I could be that she is afraid and wants to keep things mutual for a while. Try old fashioned courtship. Don't rush things with her, but rather lure her to you, I promise she will come if you do it right. We like it when men do things that show us that they care. Use your animalistic instincts!!! Don't rush her or become aggressive with your efforts you will scare her off; Woo her, be tender with her. Good luck!
