Why does a shy guy is afraid to make a move on a girl he likes? Why he feels better to lose her instead of expressing her his feelings?

Depends on the guy but for me I was rejected so much with zero positive outcomes that it killed any desire for a relationship for over a decade.

Could be because of his past problems. There is always a reason for something, a history as to why. Best thing to do is approach him and ask him. That could open him up. Would be my best advice

I had a similar situation (who is now my boyfriend ❤️) He was very shy. He did not express his feelings to me. I already knew that he liked me from my own personal experience and his friends telling me. He would play it cool and not show his emotions even thou I could see it. I finally approached him and asked what are you afraid of? I like you and I already know you like me as well. That’s when he opened up. Ever since, 1 year going and loving our relationship. It seems the shy boys are the most loving and loyal.

Babe, if I were you, I would approach him and start the conversation with him. Reading your question, you already know from the side lines that he likes you. So it should be easy then. I think some boys/ men think it’s a sign of weakness when they express their feelings towards a female. Go for it girl! Good luck!

I think you should initiate the move or at least keep sending him signals of interest. He probably doesn't know that you like him as well. My boyfriend was the same way. Shy so I made that first move. He actually explained why he didn't, and it was interesting to hear. Always a reason why

You have limited options here. You can either make the first move and ask him out or show interest back to let him know you like him. You mentioned that he doesn't know that you like him. Then see how he reacts, time it out correctly, and ask him if he wants to hang out, even if it's going to a place with friends. Life is too short, and when two people like each other, not making a move is a waste of time

I agree with the rest. Since he’s a shy person who is reserved expressing his feelings to you and you already know that he likes you and I suppose you like him as well? it’s best that you either ask him or show him some very very strong body language that it’s okay to make a move and ask you out. Remember, females are sometimes hard to read out and can just come off as being friendly.

Question is, why don't you make a move first or at least send him strong signals that you want him to make a move. You know that he's shy and he likes you. I'm sure there is something going on that is preventing him from making a move to ask you out. Obviously you 2 like each other. Stupid not acting upon it.

He is not going to ask you out. He's shy and probably has his own reasons as to why. You need to woman up and ask him out. Ask to hang out. Everybody in here is telling you that. If you keep replying back that you're shy as well, than you will be single for the rest of your remaining life on this earth. Why ruin a potential great relationship that could happen. Ask him out and get it over with. I suppose he likes you?

Approach him in a friendly manner and ask him. It doesn't seem like he will make the first move, but there's nothing wrong with you making the first move instead. Also, does he know that you like him?

[Asker]

He doesn't

[BrandonCaleb]

There is your answer. I think if you told him that you also share the same feelings, he might open up to you. I’m pretty sure he’s just guarding himself.

Anyway, go for it!

Any updates? I'm going back to all of mine previous posts

[Asker]

@Jessicasmidgen86 I cleared it to him that I like him back

[Abc99]

[AlexRodrigues75]

[Saamee]

[In_Trance]
