If a boy finds out you like him how will he act? Why?

[Anonymous]

So I've generally heard that when a guy finds out you like him he can choose to avoid you, do nothing, or pursue you. What does it mean if a guy avoids you? What does it mean if he does nothing? What does it mean if he pursues you? (Considering you aren't friends and have only talked like three times) How will he act in these different scenarios if he is shy? How will he act in these different scenarios if he is outgoing? (I am writing this because the guy I like knows I like him and he is shy and has done nothing, he doesn't avoid me, and he doesn't pursue me. I'm so confused please help me! Thanks!)

Depends on the guy and if he's interested. If he reciprocates odds are he'll do the following: ask you out immediately (if he's a go-getter), maybe try and ease his way into your world (Probably what I would I do, plus having the foreknowledge of a girl liking me would do away with any anxiety and wondering "does she think I'm a complete loser?") but even though he knows a girl likes him he may be nervous that the girl will loose her feelings when she gets to know "the real him". And finally some shy guys might be too nervous or embarrassed to talk to you or take any action. It might even make them less likely to talk to you sense they now know that you like them and may put pressure on them to feel like they need to "make a move". If the guy doesn't reciprocate, he will most likely just avoid you to avoid any conflict and keep hismelf out of a postion where he would have to tell you that he doesn't like you (which is hard). I don't think hardly any guys would like mess with a girl or lead here on just to mess with her. (unless the guys like a TOTAL jerk) Also, some guys may be on the fence about you but may pursue or ignore you depending on what they feel like doing. Some might want to test waters and see what ur like, others might avoid you just because they want to avoid letting you down or don't want to gamble. Overall, ignoring you can be a result of very diefferent things. It's sad that some people could have a relationship if it weren't for their shyness. But if a girl pursues the guy he could either respond psotively (because he was just too shy) orshe could end up wasting time on a guy that doesn't like her. Overall though, its a huge confidence boost for guys to know a girl is itnerested in you from the get go. Like there can be a girl is not really on my mind at all and just in the background, but if I found out she liked me, it would be a real game-changer. Whatever risks a girl might take are her own decisions to make.

The guy I like simply does nothing (he is shy). Like, he doesn't avoid me at all. He alsodoes not come approach me. But, his best friend who is also my friend likes me (but I don't like him).....so I mean I am beyond confused on this on

[Asker]

Also I forgot to thank you....so thanks!:)

oh and one more thing, I am shy too..........also our mutual friend (the one that likes me) said that the boy I like noticed that I avoid him...(I have only been avoiding him recently because he has not responded to my liking him) Do you have any idea what the guy I like might be thinking? And do you know what I should do?

U need to ease into it, liek plan soem get-together with mutiple firends where he'll be around or try to subtliy warm up to him, even soem of the shyiest people can hit things off if the rite opportunity allows them to communicate without being nervous.

My case is the same as yours, omg. T. T

It's the same with girls.

Some might get shy or nervous and if he has low self esteem might avoid you because he thinks automatically that he will stuff something up.

Otherwise he will probably come up to you and chat to you/ask you out.

If the feelings aren't mutual, he might ignore you.

If the feelings are mutual, he'll be really happy.

If he was neutral before all this and found out you like him, then it could pique his interest and make him take note of you.

The guy I like is quiet. He knows I like him, but he hasn't said anything. What does that mean?

[DeadKennedy]

It could mean a lot of things but even if he likes you his shyness can stil b an obstacle but even shy people can be warmed up to with the right situation.
