I've seen so many threads lately on here that sounds like girls and guys playing mind games with each other (although I have to say, I really wish people would put the ages of the guys and girls involved, because SO much of it sounds "high school"). I don't understand the game playing. I've always heard that if a guy is interested in you, you'll know. No worrying about him just dropping hints, or playing stupid mind games, or if he's going to call, or how fast he texts you back, and garbage like that. I'm just wondering how others feel about that statement.
From my experience the answer is yes. But after reading other responses on this site I am now inclined to believe that for whatever reason I attract mostly aggressive men. I have never wondered and they have always let me know very directly, "I actually like you as a person and am ready to be exclusive when you are."
I am learning now that perhaps there are other men who have been equally as interested but maybe they didn't want to be to pushy out of respect--. Who knows? I am still a youngin and learning
Because of my experience, if a guy is not direct with me, I automatically assume he is not interested and very quickly move on.
The answer is an emphatic yes. It goes for both genders. If a woman is interested in a man, they will know as well. I suppose there are a few exceptions (very few), but in the vast majority of cases, it's obvious. So if you have to ask, "Is he/she interested in me?" the answer will be "no." If you don't know, they're just not that into you.
Yup, agree. When a person is interested you will know. They won't wait to call, they won't play stupid games..etc.
You'll also know when they lose interest. They stop calling, stop texting as frequently as they used to, can't find time to see you..etc. and if/when you question it they make excuses. "I've been busy, work has been crazy", "my phone died"..etc.
Words to live by: If it's important to you, you'll find the time If not, you'll find an excuse
I've thought a few men were interested in me, but it turns out they definitely weren't so I'm apparently really bad at figuring these things out. I'm VERY direct with men if I'm interested but have never had a man just tell me he wanted to date me. Even the obvious signs of attraction aren't signs of attraction, apparently. The last guy I liked was very flirty, we hugged, gave each other kisses on the cheek, he would sit with his arm around me, we'd text each other etc. I let him know that I was interested and he asked my sister out.
False. You'll know most of the time, but men can be just as hard to read as women.
I had a friend who I got the feeling might have a crush on me, and even had a couple other friends say the same thing unprompted. I found out later he's married with a baby, and just a really friendly guy.
I've also had male friends reveal years down the line that they once had crushes on me.
Now, to be safe, I just assume everyone is in love with me and I sit and wait for their gifts of adoration.
I disagree because I have thought men were interested when they weren't and men I thought weren't interested but were. There are variations such as age, whether they are shy or not, many other things. I recently had a classmate tell me that he had a crush on me in school but afraid to ask me out (and I am talking over 20 years ago). I have thought men liked me because they were sending me signals like smiling, approaching me but then I asked them to get together and found out they had girlfriends, weren't interested etc.
