The guy I like definitely likes me. (Thanks, question answerers! ) He's been doing really cute stuff, too--like trying to catch my eye, then putting his chin in his hands and staring me down till I smile and turn red. We also mouth conversations across the room when we should be doing schoolwork, and when we don't have to, hell come sit next to me and continue our convo. Basically ideal.
But, not being very bright, I only realized yesterday that might be doing it because he likes me. When I did, I started consciously flirting--and my conscious flirting makes me look ostentatious and high-maintenance, like cheerleaders in movies. Its definitely turning him away. He didn't talk to me as much today, and when I looked at him, he would move his eyes away from me.
I think he liked being the more outgoing one--he can be very shy around girls, especially as he doesn't realize most of them are being so annoying because they like him. Now I want to be my shy self again, instead of acting like someone I'm not and not helping myself anyway. But I can't think of any cute, flirty things for a shy girl to do!
Help, people! Guys, tell me what shy girls can do that would make you like them more. Girls, tell me tricks you've used that work. And answer the poll, so I can check if I'm right or wrong about guys liking ostentatious girls!
Shy girls are usually very thoughtful girls. How about writing him a thoughtful e-mail, text message? - How about just walking home with him one day and talking. Trying getting to know him really well. I would be safe in saying that I think your over thinking this whole deal. As always be yourself. Maybe your simply shy upon him knowing that he likes you. And maybe you get less shy when your more comfortable knowing/confirming that he likes you (so of course you comfortably flirt back). Shyness goes away once you get comfortable with someone. Best thing, is just be yourself.
I make my own category. Different guys like different girls it just depends. My advice, be your self! As far as your question goes. When he does look at you blush and look down then sneak peeks at him. Very shy. I think you should be yourself but it's your choice. Possibly try not flirting as much with him.
I'd like to be myself more--it can be hard sometimes but I'll stick it out. And thanks for the flirting move. That's exactly the kind of thing I was looking for. Something to make a shy-girl lover feel a little heart-fluttery. Got any more? - 9 months ago

Well, I really do think you should just be yourself. But I will give you one more "shy" tip. If your in conversation give a small, kinda nervous, looking smile but not too nervous or small or he will think you are faking a smile. - 8 months ago
I'm a shy person (no duh.) and all my friends are really outgoing. And guys are always flirting with them and stuff. But I have to wonder, what do...
