Met a guy about 6 months ago through a friend. Developed something of a crush. Saw him handfull of times. Each time was a month or more apart from the other. Spend holidays together at a ski resort. During this time he was staring at me, looking weird, appeared nervous and was trying to make eye contact. Also, caught him staring at my boobs. Kinda obviously. He also was pretty busy and did not spend the entire time near me. He left one day before me, staring at my figure weirdly while saying goodbye. We did spend one evening close to each other but barely spoke and other people were there. I wanted to go to sleep but he insisted I should stay. We were both kinda drunk.
I can't say is he interested, or did I appeared nervous so he realized I'm into him. I did not flirt with him. Maybe just a little but I doubt he got the hint. This is so confusing. Sometimes I think he knows and he is not interested and sometimes I think he is interested but thinks I am not. I suppose he might be simply choosing not to act on it. Starting to doubt myself and did I really saw what I saw or I saw what I wanted to see.My gut tells me he likes me but...if I am being a skeptic I would say if he was interested he would go for it.
I am a few years older and taller. Maybe he only dates petite women.

I didn't want to say anything to my friend because I would rather keep quiet than make things awkward.

Would you say something, or just call it? Should I risk rejection or call it. I am so outta practice in this dating thing.

You should have made out if you were both drunk while on ski vacation. Now that you're home and overthinking everything, nothing will ever happen.

"What we have here is a failure to communicate"

This is pretty easy. Tell the guy you like him and would like to date him. He either starts dating you or he tells you he's not interested.

Is he really what you want for your boyfriend.... a weird, nervous, boob-starer who doesn't speak?

If so, ask him out. Only you know if you are great for each other!

a boob starer that doesnt speak???

thats most men in this world....we are quiet because we are filtering, what we usually want to say we cant.....we'd get slapped..


men are like dogs.... pretty easy/.....dont take much to wag our tails..

dont assume we pick up on any signals you are sending,,,,reading a woman is like a blind guy with a rubiks cube......
its not like 30 years ago.... guys are told NOT to take the initiative because theres a fine line about being bold/confident and being a creeper/predator ...and this all depends if she wants him to make a move on her

This guy is usually pretty confident in all settings. And tries to look cool. Also very fit. He doesn't come across as a nervous wreck for the most part. That is why I picked up on some of his nervousness. But since I was attracted to him from the start I might be overthinking the whole thing. If this was a random guy I would maybe make a move, but I will be running into this person every now and then, awkwardness from potential rejection might be too much. As far as making out when we were drunk that was impossible to do around 10 other people, all close relatives of mine.

If he's a pretty confident person, I think he would have made a move if he really wanted to. I'm betting that you're reading into things.

I am just kinda confused. I guess I don't really know him. He hugs me, stares at me... definitely finds me attractive. I am not sure he is as cool as he presents himself. Few months ago I came across his dating profile where says he wants true love. But pics he posted were pretty far from that. Like shirtless photos and such. Nothing too over the top like bathroom selfies, mostly just photos from the beach. I concluded he is looking for hookups and that he is a player. At ski resort, he looked somewhat vulnerable.

Again, more guessing.

You're jumping to conclusions based on photos and your tarnished feelings.
