Guys: why would a guy act so distant with me but it’s very sweet with other people?

[Anonymous]

Ever since I met this guy, I’ve treated him nicely, I greet him, I smile and I’ve tried to get close and get to know him but he is always very serious, distant and cold with me. I notice that he acts differently with other people/girls, he jokes, laughs and smiles so much more with them. He acts more free and relaxed with than he does with me. So I wonder why would a guy act so distant with me but be so sweet with other girls and people in general?

You're acting in a way that any other decent human would act towards another human. It'd be like if a person held a door open for you regularly, in your mind your thinking "what a nice thing to do", and they're thinking "I keep holding doors open for this woman, why doesn't she love me yet?" What I'm saying is just being nice isn't going to cut it b/c most people are nice. You may have to be the one to ask him out, some guys don't pick up on the subtle approach. It's just a question of if you can handle the possibility of rejection

I do so when a girl wants to move forward fast or too pushy to get something.

Best thing to treat him as a friend if things went well then you can move together fkrn there.

I personally hate being responsible or commit to someone that's why I keep distance with all but maintain good communication level like laughing and joking.

This happened to me. The reason was, he knew I liked him, like, Liked him, and he didn’t feel the same way. He was trying to communicate that without saying it.

After some fun drama, we talked it out, and then we went back to being friends. :)

Maybe he likes you but is going too far to hide it.

Thanks for the MHO!

He acts this way because he desires you but may be suffering due to such desires. He can joke and smile with the other girls because he's not as attracted to them, but also it's a way of releasing the impact of the desires he has for you through them by laughing and deflecting.

Maybe he has to get to know you?

Maybe he does not care for you?

He probably doesn't like you
