How could he like me if he doesn't smile at me?

[Mikaychay95]

The guy I like shows a bit of the signs that he may like me as well. I've noticed he has done the whole staring and looking away when I look at him thing. I've especially noticed this when I'm with other guys (not even flirting just talking). He also is different towards me compared to everyone, including other girls. He can talk to any girl just fine but he seems to not talk to me at all. Almost as if he is nervous and tense around me. Even my friend said that she could tell that he was having trouble talking to me which made me feel bad because I really like him. The only time he didn't act like this around me was when he handed me his phone for more to add myself on his snapchat and he also put his arm around me and this other girl (the other girl has a bf and they're just friends). My friends say it's obvious he likes me and is afraid of embarrassing himself around me but the thing is he's never smiled at me before. I've heard that a guy who likes you will smile at least a little at you. This is why I get a vibe that my friends are wrong and that they're telling me this because that's what they think I want to hear and he actually doesn't like me. Guys, do you smile at girls you like? Is there a possibility that he may actually like me but just doesn't smile at me for some reason? Please help, thank you.

I mean every guy will be a little different. I tend to smile at everyone. But the way he is acting could mean that he does like you he just doesn't know how to approach the feelings. I mean when I first like this girl I liked her so much that every time I saw her my throat got a lump and all I could manage to get out was a hi. But I didn't smile at her until she started talking to me more. I kinda opened right up. We never went out but we are good friends now and she asks me the same stuff. I would encourage you to talk to him to see if he warms up a little. But its up to you.

[Mikaychay95]

That makes sense, why didn't you go out?

[bigjack22]

Because I was too chicken shit to ask her and wen I did she was already dating someone

i think you should listen to your friends! i mean, even i think he likes you. the reason he doesn't smile at you could be that he's shy or maybe he isn't sure that you like him. when i see a girl i like but I'm not sure if she like me back, i tend not to smile... weird isn't it? lol.
but yeah, i think he likes you!
good luck, i hope my opinion was helpful 😊

[Mikaychay95]

Ok, I've just heard that even those that are shy will smile at you but everyone is different I guess. What confuses me though is he shy in general or just around girls he likes because other than me he isn't shy at all. You're opinion was very helpful though thank you!!

[KanjiTatsumi1]

wow thank you for givimg me my first "most helpfull" ever! i really appreciate it 😇

He either really hates you or really likes you, but it's hard to figure out which from what you've written. But from your perspective it should be pretty easy to figure out whether he likes you or hates you!

[Mikaychay95]

That's my problem though I can't figure it out

[Opinion Owner]

deep inside you just know :) Even when you say that you don't, I think you do!

[Mikaychay95]

Are you sure about that?

[Opinion Owner]

Yup, 100%

It's not necessary, he doesn't smile at you but still likes you (for sure).
Maybe he doesn't smile at you because he don't want you to get the wrong idea

[KanjiTatsumi1]

but if he doesn't want to give her the wrong idea, that does that mean he doesn't like her?
first you say he must like her for sure, and then you say he doesn't want to give her the wrong idea...
your opinion is making me dizzy...

[Mikaychay95]

What is the "wrong idea" here?

[Mikaychay95]

@kangitatsumi1 I think he means he doesn't want me knowing that he may like me unless he knew that I liked him back

[booo159]

@KanjiTatsumi1, @Mikaychay95 got it right. No need for you to to get dizzy.

[KanjiTatsumi1]

yeah, that must be it.

[Mikaychay95]

Should I start making it more obvious that I like him then?

[booo159]

Yes, yes you should that.
Smile at him maybe or you can also start the Convo sometime
He would love that

[Mikaychay95]

ok, I've tried in the past but not to hard so why not give it another go? Thank you!

[Klaatu51]

The fact he doesn't smile doesn't mean he doesn't like you... maybe he's shy i guess...

[Mikaychay95]

I've gotten that one a couples times. He never starts the conversation and will engage if someone else starts it. However for me when I've tried he still seemed tense and I figured he didn't like the fact I was talking to him but people have been telling me that's how guys can act if they like someone? I don't him all that well that's the thing.

[Your_boss960]

Maybe he's just un emotional?

[Mikaychay95]

I wouldn't know
