What are signs a shy guy likes you vs. when a shy guy does not like you?

[abbyjgriffin98]

I have heard people say some signs shy guys like you are they avoid you, avoid eye contact act really nervous in your presence and do not talk to you but aren't those also signs a shy guy does not like you? So how can you tell the difference when a shy guy likes you vs. does not like you?

I’m a shy guy and I can only offer perspective from my side of it.


For me, I tend to catch myself glancing at a woman multiple times if I like her. If I get flustered around her at times, I will immediately avert my eyes if she catches my look (admittedly this is something that needs to be worked on as it shows a lack of confidence). I also tend to keep any conversation with her short and get away from her fast. Or at least these were ways I was before I started trying to be more confident. It comes from a fear of rejection.


More than once, I’ve had a woman’s female friends approach me, after a while, and ask if I am interested in their friend. And if I’m dumb enough to lie about it, they usually know better and call me on it. Try as a guy might to hide it, at some points he’ll give himself away.

A shy guy that likes you will be like this mini-stalker in your vision or 30-100 feet away. This is also a good way to communicate back... except you wave... or give him the index finger "come hither" call.

Watch how he is with others, then benchmark that, if you notice he is afterwards showing you extras to how he behaves around others, then there is a good chance he likes you.

I'm shy but will at least make eye contact if I think she is cute. I would rather the girl be honest and up front though. I always think "if you like me just let me know" you have to keep guessing like that.

Even a shy guy will break out of his "shell" for the one he likes. But careful, he could be doing the same with "other women". It's all in whether you WANT HIM TO LIKE YOU, or not, right?

Shy dudes will find excuses to be around the people they like outside of mandatory functions. It's the exact opposite with those they hate.
