Do you avoid or ignore your crush/the person you like? And why?
The only time I've done that is when I liked someone but I was still in my last relationship.
I'd already spent a lot of time with him, and I'd realised that I needed to pull it back a little, because otherwise I just would have liked him more and more and it wouldn't have been a nice situation for anyone.
I didn't ignore him. I just kept out of his way.
My mother used to say to me to be like a fireside for a guy. By that she meant to be warm and inviting, and someone they could go to, and it's probably one of the few pieces of advice she gave me that I actually took.
If you ignore a guy you like, it's so easy to fall into that trap of mixed signals, and that's very difficult to get out of.
Just be normal with them. Every single person is a little afraid of rejection, deep down, but avoiding or ignoring someone you like for no good reason is just betting against yourself from the start.
Just go for it. You have nothing to lose.

Yes because I'm shy and I don't trust what I'm attracted to lol
Most of the time, I honestly do not feel like I have a chance, so I try to avoid my crush to prevent coming off as a creepy until the feeling goes away but sometimes it feels like you cannot help but want to be around them.
I would love to spend more time with them, learn more about them and hopefully something comes from it but they are called a crush for a reason.

No way, I am talking to her as much as possible without being annoying.

When I was younger I was very timid and I did avoid my crushes because I thought they didn't want to talk to me. Now I have a bit more confidence and I try to talk with them more to get a feel for things but I do get that anxiety at times that they don't like talking to me. Because of that I do intentionally avoid them for a time till that anxiety goes away and try again.

Normally no I would chat get to know her! But like today I was chatting with this friend. She's fun to be with good to look at only problem she is married. So I have to keep my feeling with me, I try not to be with her, but we get on, today I was just sitting outside the coffee shop and she came up and asked doing want a coffee, I said yes and came back and sat a side of me. It was do hard not to try and chat her or flirt with her. What troubles me more I think her feeling are the same...

I don’t get crushes lol that’s how you get your heart broke as a man, I talk to many woman at once in the beginning and slowly weed through the ones I have less common interests and less connection with until I only have one girl who I have a connection with very well and I date her, if I was to pine over one girl at a time I’d never get a girlfriend and just get my heartbroken over and over
-
Yes, I avoid simply because I am in disbelief that such a person would like me. Mostly because I cannot function mentally. Oh look, it's the Bat signal. Gotham needs me.

If i have a crush , i definitely would look at her
and pay attention to her , check her out and would
not avoid her. -
You see I’m socially inept, so they could literally be right in my face and I would still ignore them😞
-
If she doesn't take initiative = I move on with life without her.
On the other hand, I don't get crushes or get attracted without the other one taking initiative make a lot of effort and make thing's happen. -
Welcome back Keziah. Long time since we have heard from you.
-
Yes because I ginger nervous and don't know how to act
-
Yes. I ignore them for a few reasons.
1. Shy
2. Insecure
3. They probably don't find me attractive
4. He is probably way too young for me... (I'm awful at telling how old people are)
-
I automatically get nervous/shy but I try to make conversation and not be awkward lol.
-
I avoid because I'm introverted and have a terrible social anxiety, and because guys I like never give me a second look.

when I was your age yes, so I answered yes.
now, no, I intentionally go to engage her. -
At this point I only crush on girls if I know they're also interested in me, so I definitely don't ignore or avoid them. However, if I make a move and they turn me down, I'll go out of my way to avoid them, and seldom ever will talk to them again.

Yes, because I'm shy and nervous and scared and intimidated, so I need time to warm up to their presence and work up the nerve to approach and speak to her.
-
No. Just the opposite.
