Usually I'm with really forward boys, where I can totally tell if they are into me or not. Lately though I've become really attracted to a total dork. He is so sweet, funny, intelligent, and fun. completely different from the usual shallow jerks that I date. I'm so excited about this boy, but he seems to be socially awkward around girls. We have a class together and talk a lot, flirt, and joke around. The signs are all there. But whenever I see him outside the class and say hi, he just kinda glances at me with a half smile. Is this because he really is just not that into me? or because he is awkward around girls? Take into account I'm a year older then him, not dorky, and sorta out of his league. Is he afraid? Intimidated? Help!
well every guy has been in this situation and when I was in this situation i didn't want and e one to see me say hi to her cause I wasnt popular and she was so I would just do that and try to save her reputation
he may think your using him, if he knows you go after the "bad" guys, then to him it looks like you're using him to get to maybe a "bad" guy friend of his
if you really do like this so called "dork" (socially unacceptable word to use) make it clear to him, you haven't used him, you're not using him, and you never will use him
as far as him not saying hi, he's probably the shy type, I know that I'm like that too..in class I can be pretty outgoing, but outside of class, I tend to get a bit shy, I have no idea why
my suggestion with that is be patient...yeah its cliche, but trust me, shy guys are worth it in the long run, because yeah it may take a while for him to open up...but once he does, you can't shut him up...id know this, cause I do it all the time
Um, he seems really sweet but I'd imagine that he is just being shy. I'm willing to bet that if you wanted to you could pull him out of his shell. Try asking him out or if you don't want to do that drop really obvious hints (Like tell him if he asked you out you'd probably say yes, you know, stuff not even a blind person can miss). I'm willing to bet if he's making the effort to talk with you when he's afraid in general then he must like you.
Really, what is there to lose? You might end up with someone who actually cares about you for as a person for once.
As for the you being "out of his league", lose the attitude...People are people and as soon as you start trying to quantify existences then you start becoming horrible.
Thank you. and ya the "out of his league" was a not so mature thing to say, your right. I need to stop thinking that way, he is amazing, and no high school social hierarchy is going to control me or my thoughts. I appreciate it :) - 9 months ago
Your not horrible for saying your 'out of his league' that doesn't necessarily mean that your better than him and its presumptuous someone would make that assumption. 'out of his league' could mean your a lot different than other girls he's been into. Say perhaps the one he took to homecoming? ;) This boy is gonna like you for you which is what you want. You don't need anyone else to back you in what you already know. - 9 months ago

This was a question I asked myself last year. Not that I’ve never had a girlfriend but I do tend to get the girls that I “kind of” like, rather than the ones I find gorgeous, intelligent, and super...
