i'm a black, plus sized chick. he's a white tall dark and handsome dude. I used to always check him out. and he always caught me looking. it seemed like he was keeping his distance from me, so I stopped looking at him. just don't think I would be his type. but lately I've caught him looking at me a few times and he was staying close to me and even jumped into a conversation I was having with someone. I just slipped away when they directed a question towards him. I can't seem to get the nerve to talk to him. and I'm sure that soon it will get old. just don't know what to think or do.
not his type? well you never know. it could be that he's into girls like you, or it could be that he's fascinated because he's never known someone like you before.
did he leave the conversation after you slipped away? if so, that might indicate he was more interested in you that the conversation.
if he's keen he'll probably make excuses to hang around (i'm assuming this is at work or similar); even if he doesn't say anything he'll quite likely loiter about nearby. you can probably play it cool, but maybe your best bet is to arrange to be in some group activity together.
that said, if this *is* a work colleague then be professional - mixing work & relationships can of course get awkward.
No. I'm to shy to even talk to him. only eyes have met. saw him yesterday, and again didn't know that he snuck up behind me and I went to stand up from my chair and he was right there. all I said was "excuse me". could have said a little more. nerves got the best of me. I guess he could have said something too. he just smiled and let me by. thanks for asking though :) - 4 months ago

Well maybe you'll get more comfortable if you're around each other more. Hope so, anyway. - 4 months ago
Maybe he's just trying to see what you are all about. You shying away makes it seem like either you are too nervous or self-conscious to speak, or he is probably beginning to believe that you are no longer interested. It's interesting to me how different you two are, yet you are still interested. I guess opposites do really attract. I think maybe next time he jumps into one of your conversations, you should speak up. Include him, but don't be all on his nuts. If he likes you, I am sure you will notice. Don't get too flustered with this one "white tall dark and handsome dude". There are others, that even I know personally, that like "black, plus sized chicks" ;-). Don't sweat it babes.
Go for it. White guys expect black girls to be bolder anyway, so you've really got nothing to worry about. At the very least you shouldn't be afraid to talk to him. He certainly wouldn't think badly of you for that.
