What do guys think when they catch a girl staring at them?

[Anonymous]

there's this guy in my public speaking class that's perfect in terms of looks, like a 9/10. he's not annoying or flamboyant like goodlooking guys can be but calm and confident. Unfortunately I am extremely attracted to him. I cannot keep my eyes off him because he's too delicious. I am annoyed with myself because usually I handle things better with guys and don't act weird or stupid. I guess u could say I get attention but i don't think I'm that cute and Ik he's way out of my league. In class I kept taking glances at him. But during my speech he caught me looking and flicked his eyebrows and smiled a little. I was so embarrassed. Do u think he knows?

[cavmanier]

He probably did that to tease you because he figured you'd be nervous giving the speech. I usually usually haven't paid attention to if people are looking at me, but I have noticed that a girl may make eye contract with me but then they've rarely done it again while I've looked at them. I haven't noticed staring.

[Asker]

Ok I hope that was the case it was very playful. He's seems like a nice guy. I'll try to stop staring at him.

[cavmanier]

You can try talking to him. You're unlikely to understand if he's interested unless you ask.

[Asker]

I think I'll just leave it alone. I'm really shy and even if I did talk to him and the feelings were mutual it would be very hard for me not to... well you know what I mean

[cavmanier]

Not, something sexual?

[Asker]

Exactly. That's the last thing I want right now. I want to focus on school

[cavmanier]

Your parents would love to read that.

[Asker]

😂😂omg I can't.
Well all jokes aside it's true. I'm trying to go into the medical field and it requires a lot of studying. and TBH I have never been in a relationship so it would be very distracting.

[cavmanier]

GL to you. Yeah they can be very time and emotion distracting.

[Lopezz1999]

I have terrible peripheral vision, so it really sucks that I won't be able to tell if a girl is looking at me. That being said, I'd be flattered if I were to catch her looking at me, especially more than once if I'm attracted to her.

[Asker]

Lol aw but Sometimes if a girl is really attracted she'll look at his face really fast straight on if she's facing him. I did and that's when he caught me

[Lopezz1999]

True true. I used to look at my crush that way when I was right across from her, except I stared at her for a longer time. She probably knew I was looking at her tho 😅

[Asker]

Yeah girls can sense it. Even if you're looking from behind. It's like a 6th sense. Girls always know when guys are looking unless they're extremely fascinated by something else. They may just choose to ignore the sensation and move on with their day

[Lopezz1999]

I see. Sometimes I like to stare at a girl right in front of her to let her know that I'm looking at her, but she still chooses to ignore me instead of looking at me to see if I'll look away. What does that mean?

[Asker]

It means
1. she's shy. It'll take different signs to determine if she likes u
2. She thinks you're being rude/playing hard to get. Some girls don't like that kind of attention and think it's rude and don't reward t with attention. On the other hand some girls realize it and ignore you to make her want u more. (She may be doing this because she likes to play games OR she's intimidated by you and wants to be in control)
3. She likes you and doesn't want u to know

[Lopezz1999]

Oh I see now. No wonder she won't look back at me when I'm obviously staring right in front of her lol

[Anonymous]

yeah of course he knows. But he could just be one of those guys that expects every girl to be checking him out anyway so don't worry. I suggest talking to him about it :D usually when girls check me out, they're staring at the huge bulge in my pants created by my wallet full of money. This guy sounds lucky :)

[Asker]

Lol noo I wasn't staring at his wallet he's just ridicously good looking. and u can't tell how much money someone has by the bulge anyway. It coups be all $1 bills😂
Anyway well I'm just gonna lie to myself and say he doesn't know so i won't feel embarrassed

[Opinion Owner]

u shouldn't feel embarrassed anyway. You have a right to your feelings. :) ur gonna have to talk to him sometime or you'll end up wondering about it for the rest of ur life :P maybe u should ask to get together with him to work on some assignments for that speaking class

[Asker]

Well the class he's in is at a community college and I'm leaving to a private university I really want to go to soon so I don't see the point of bothering. Our groups are already assigned so I don't know which one is which. I'm 17 years old and he probably thinks I'm a silly little girl anyway so I'm not gonna even worry about it

[Opinion Owner]

lol okay okay. I won't twist your arm. I just think it's better to say things rather than let them go unsaid. But anyhoo, I seriously doubt he thinks of u as a "silly little girl". lol. He probably goes home thinking about that hot girl in class with the amazing eyes that keeps staring at him ;)

[Asker]

Aha I wish 😏 But thanks

[hmtr23]

I usually think that they are looking at something else in my general direction

[Asker]

Thanks I hope he doesn't know even tho that one time he caught

[Anonymous]

When a guy catches a girl staring
He says nothing and probably likes it

When girls catch guys staring he's a pervert
And its wrong

[Asker]

Tru tru there is double standards in some cases.
However I consider it a compliment if a guy is flirting and not lewdly being rude.

[Anonymous]

I never think they're interested, usually I think they're just looking for the hell of it

[Asker]

Ok cool that makes it less embarrassing for me. But FYI if a girl is staring she is very attracted to u

[Opinion Owner]

Not always the case, from experience

[Asker]

Hmm that's unusual, some other factors must have been involved.

[Anonymous]

lol he probably knows. Don't worry it's sweet. I've had it happen to me before and it's flattering

[Asker]

Yea but it makes me look easy. And it's super embarrassing. Oh well after this class I won't see him again

[Opinion Owner]

Noooo not at all. It doesn't make you look easy. It's really sweet. I just smile inside when this ever happens to me. It's nice to be admired by a girl. It really is!

[Asker]

Well not everyone is nice and some people will use u or play with your emotions. He seems like a nice guy but I still don't know.
I'm very close to my cousin who is his age and extremely good looking. He gets hit on all the time but he's still a sweetie. He didn't Care about the feelings of the girls that approached him but I had to talk him into approaching a girl. So I learned a lot from that

[Opinion Owner]

Oh I see. Yeah that's pretty mean to play with someone's emotions. I would never do that or lead someone on for fun

[Asker]

Yeah Iol I lectured him about how unkind that was and he was like "yeah yeah". He's a good guy but I think those girls didn't give him any reason to respect him so he doesn't. Which is why I prefer guys to approach me instead of pouncing on them lol

[Asker]

That's good u wouldn't tho 👏🏾

[Opinion Owner]

Thanks! 🙂

[SwolDishWasher]

We know what you're thinking.

[Asker]

Ohh great. Welp that's embarrassing. Thanks for the honesty
