Why do men act coy?

[Jennalorrainetaylor]

Coy as in almost ignoring a woman at times, given he finds her attractive, any thoughts? Fellas what's your thought on this?

Because when we act interested it seems an immediate turn off. Atomizer is right, playing it cool means we don't give off any vibes that would turn a girl off.

Here's a secret: Us guys have feelings to!

And we're much more defensive about protecting them in regards to showing interest. So if a guy is acting coy around you rather then his usual goofy careless self, chances are he thinks of you in a certain way. ;)

But be careful because he could also just be a shy/quiet sorta person.

Usually its not hard to tell if someone likes you, so yeah, there is chemistry and you'll just have an idea.

A few possibilities come to mind.

1. He's playing it cool.

2. He's shy.

3. He's not interested, and she's reading into things.

All of the above.
