Why is he so touchy and overly flirty with other girls but shy with me?

[Anonymous]

Assuming he was attracted to me (he acts nervous, watches me when he thinks I don’t notice, Friends know about me etc.) why would he be more reserved around me but be super flirty and touchy with other women he is attracted to from the very beginning?

I may not be the prettiest but I’m definitely not ugly so why do men never act flirty around me?

He’s known the other women before you and feels more confident around them. It’s different with you because you’re new to him and he’s a nervous mess because he loves you

No he acts like that even with new acquaintances

You know... It really depends on the definition of flirting, but it sure tends to be considered non-serious. Now, if He was cold towards You, it would be a different matter, but if He's shy instead, You might be the one He's actually serious about.

He's more comfortable with other women but he's nervous around you, because he's crazy about you.

But he’s sometimes nervous around them too but he still acts touchy 😅

my theory is he’s comfortable around the other girls because he’s not attracted to them. He’s shy around you because he is attracted to you.

[Asker]

He is attracted to them too otherwise why would he invade their space, lean in and act overly cutesy?

[Mike87479]

Do you feel that you are as attractive as the other girls?

[Asker]

yes even more

Ok. So I was going to say if he wasn’t attracted to you then that’s why he’s not messing with you. But if you’re more attractive then I’m pretty sure he’s uncomfortable or shy because he has some feelings for you. But he’s also getting some attention from you. Give him an opportunity to talk to you and see how he responds. For example compliment how he looks.

He's probably just not into you, but you could always ask him, or try flirting with him.
