Why did he avoid looking at me when I dressed up nice? Did I mistake his interest?

A guy has been a bit flirty with me at my job. I decided to dress up cute bc it was my birthday. He’s usually close or trying to get near when I’m dressed plain

but when I dressed up he was def trying to avoid looking and his energy was different. I felt a bit embarrassed tbh

what happened?

I think he was ghosting you. This way he tried to encourage you to open to him. He likes you, this is how he wants to get your attention. 🙂keep going.

Girl I wish

Found out that he’s talking to someone.. actually a hot model lmao

[Asker]

But we never talked or anything not even on a private level. He mostly showed attraction

So he does not have the balls to talk to you. Why not open up to him? Maybe secretly he would be happier with you, who knows!

We can’t date lol we follow strict rules

So it’s understandable ig.. maybe it was rejection or respect for his new person I don't know

hard to say what his deal is, but dont feel embarrassed. you can dress how ever you like and happy belated birthday

Yeah, thank you!

I just felt embarrassed bc I didn’t know if that was his way of saying “I’m not interested”
