Every few weeks there seems to be a similar post like this. He's not being mean to you. He's being socially awkward. Stop reading into common human interactions.
And why is he being socially akward with me and no one else?
Football and beer are not automatic. For instance, I am not really into football. There are better things to do on weekends than watch football. Playing sports is always better than watching sports.
There's this guy that's fairly new to my social group. I've caught him staring at me on several occassions -- the most recent stare was quite prolonged and intent. However, he never speaks to me and displays other weird behavior. When he does speak to me, he keeps it very brief.
One day he was talking to a mutual friend and when I walked up, he quickly mentioned that he had a girlfriend. He also moved his seat when I innocently sat down next to him at a party one evening a couple of months ago when I first met him. However, this past Thursday we were at a Christmas party and I was sitting down and there was an empty seat next to me and I noticed he was lingering. After a few minutes he came over and said "ah, let me sit down right here," and sat down next to me. I was completely shocked because he sometimes acts like he wants nothing to do with me and was a complete a$$ the first time around.
In addition to the staring, he also laughs at all of my unfunny jokes, smiles at me to the point where I get creeped out, and one day I caught him flushing red when I was playing with my hair? I've never once flirted or anything with this guy although I do find him attractive, but I first and foremost respect that he has a girlfriend. I usually keep my distance and don't communicate much but as of late I've been a little friendlier for the sake of peace. Also, in the looks department, I don't think I'm too bad myself. So what gives? Guys, why the weird behavior? Does he hate me?
And for the smarty fartys on the board, I am asking this question not because I like him but because I just met this dude and he's being mean to me and not treating any of the other girls in the circle this way. Trying to gain clarity because I don't understand it. I don't have much interaction with him. I'm feisty and I speak my mind..that's all I could think of?
Just sounds like he has a girlfriend. Far as staring at you, either he thinks you are exotic or he likes you but doesn't want to lead you on.
I didn't read all the posts, but can you tell me how old you are and he is?
That will save a lot of effort.
lol, mid twenties. And I would still like to hear your thoughts.
