Why is a stranger guy avoiding me?

[xuanxliu]

Please help! This cute guy and I have made eye contact in the hall a few times, never talked..basically strangers.

However, last week when he saw me in my pretty dress at the school talent show, he suddenly turned his back to me and backed up into a corner behind a column.

He was with a couple of friends and seemed close to a girl that I know that night, and I was hanging out with mine.

When he show was over, he was staring right at the exit waiting for something. I felt awkward to be within his sight, so I talked to a male friend until my mom came to pick me up.

When I passed by him I brushed him with a sleeve:P

and the next day he was actually deliberately hiding behind his friends when I passed by him in the hall..

I am so confused, I don't think I'm a physically repulsive person, in fact, many people I didn't know complimented my looks that night.

Yet he seems so terrified by my presence..;(

Does he hate me for some guy reason that I don't understand?

Is he creeped out by me?

Should I simply ignore him and move on?

PS. I feel really hurt because even if he doesn't like me, he doesn't need to make his disgust so obvious by hiding his body behind a pathetic column...

If you are really good looking you might appear intimidating to talk to. He is either really shy so he is afraid to talk to you. or he is probably a weirdo. or Just not good with girls. I say move on unless he approaches you. Or Why don't you just say Hi when you pass by him? But obviously if your ego is high he needs to make the 1st move right?

..I just don't want to start of being the aggressive one in a potential relationship...and now that he is avoiding me, It'll be awkward to randomly say HI to him>_< and of course, it is always possible that he thinks I like him, and is just trying to turn me down politely?

ahahahahah you being the aggressive one. That is the 1st time I have heard that. You are right it can be awkward. I think so, I remember an ugly girl used to like me, at one time she asked me if I had a girl I said no and she said yeah me too. I know right pretty obvious. Well I completely ignore her in my school and she never came up to me again. So maybe. But if you are cute I don't know.

AWWWW. I think I'm just gonna let this one go then:P I am cowardly myself when it comes to attractive guys, and will never really put myself out there unless I know he like me for sure. By the way, the standard for "cute" always differs for every person, and I am not confident when it is him...

It seems that you did something in the past to him.

Or it's just that he gets uncomfortable when you're around perhaps because he's attracted to you so the natural tendency is to hide from you.

Or you can simply talk to him. That's the best way to ignite things.

thanks for the advice^_^ I don't know if I did something to him..and he's like, really masculine looking, extremely hunky and tall; while I'm just a little girl, so I'm not sure why he'd be scared of me:P

Hmmm. It sounds to me as if you creeped him out? Is there anything "creepy" about you? I would probably smile a little if I was you? Or I don't know you might have something on you repulsive to him. Move on someone else might like you more. In the end he was with a girl

He's avoiding eye contact with you because he likes you and thinks you don't like him!

[xuanxliu]

he might think I like him but he doesn't like me ;(

Maybe he is shy.

[xuanxliu]

maybe..:)

who knows? I guess I'm usually very outgoing but is shy with this dude...so maybe he feels the same way?

[amatuer_zombie]

yup quite a possibility.
