What usually happens is they either befriend me and although they never ask me out, we hang out together at e.g., university or during e.g., volunteer group get-togethers. This might sound silly but I also notice they give me "googly eyes" and I can just tell by their body language that they are attracted to me. They give me all their attention for the most part and they are extra-friendly. Their girlfriends are NOT present during these encounters.
The first time it happened to me I was 20, it broke my heart. I had a mad crush on this guy and he flirted with me HEAVILY! When I found out he had a girlfriend, I avoided him like the plague and I also avoided him for being a jerk about something else. And then many months later, when they broke up, he tried to reconnect with me.
I've never had a boyfriend and although I think this has to do with me being very busy with grad school right now, a part of me wonders if any (single!) guy will ever like/love me. It also makes me not trust men completely.
Last year a guy did pursue me for a while, but he was kind of flaky/forgetful and my complete opposite. He has a girlfriend now. I think we would have made a terrible match, BUT it still hurts.
All comments welcome.
