Signs a shy girl likes a guy?

[Anonymous]

The push/pull a shy girl does can be exciting, and even the confusion and frustration can be fun. But sometimes they leave me scratching my head in confusion. They might flirt one moment, then ignore the next, so I might end up thinking the flirting she was doing was in my head. What are signs a shy girl likes a guy?

nervousness- I talk to guys all the time and I don't get nervous while talking to them unless I like them

smile/blush/giggle- I do a LOT of this when talking to a guy I like, especially in the beginning when I don't really know him

smiling genuinely for no reason at all- if I'm talking to a guy I like I usually smile really big even if he isn't talking about anything funny. I just can't help it because I like him

gets very happy to see you- if I see a guy I like, especially unexpectedly, I smile really big and get super happy like a child lol

tucking hair behind ear, playing with jewelry, etc- if I'm talking to a guy I like I have a habit of tugging on an earring or playing with my hair. just a nervous habit I have

listening to what you're saying and not appearing to be distracted- just giving you her full attention

lots of looking down and smiling if you try to hold eye contact with her

sneak glances at you when she doesn't think you're looking

Yeah, what the girl below me said is very true. If a guy I have no interest in approaches me, I'm not nervous at all talking to him, but I won't necessarily prolong the conversation. If a guy I do like approaches me, I instantly get really nervous, really smiley, and will try my best to prolong the conversation, probably by asking random questions that seem disjointed. It's because I want to talk to you, but my brain isn't working properly in your presence.

For me at least, I'll smile at the guy if I make eye contact with him. If it's any other guy I'll just look away. But around a guy I like I pretty much start grinning like an idiot and probably blushing a little bit too.

Once she gets more comfortable around you she might start initiating conversations, but at first she'll probably be waiting for you to do it. She might be wanting to talk to you but a combination of nervousness, fear of being rejected, or a fear that you might not like her after all will hold her back.

What about when you walk past him? Will you avoid eye contact out of shyness? Or will you try to reroute (like turning corner or CROSSING street?)

I've had girls do this to me with positives (lingering eye contact, hanging around me) which confused the hell out of me.

I avoid eye contact. But if you want her to notice you wave or do something that gets her attention. Because she will only avoid eye contact since she likes you

If I really like the guy I'll make eye contact with him when walking past in the hope that it will invite him to come talk to me. I wouldn't ever reroute, but I might avoid eye contact if I wasn't feeling particularly confident that day. ...I know, shy girls are confusing.

She will not look at you for a long time. Trust me when I say this. When I talk to a guy I like I make eye contact then become completely lost in their eyes and when I snap out of it I look around

She will not initiate anything unless she has a reason to. She will not just say hi how are you. If she has a question or needs help with something. Even then she will be hesitant

She will not initiate text unless she has a good reason to

If she's nervous or is hesitant to talk to you. Shy girls feel more comfortable talking to guys they're not interested in
