What are some signs that a man is hiding his attraction for a woman?

Specifically in a professional/work setting.

He hasn’t asked you out yet for a number of reasons.

He's shy or he's hiding something or both

My first question is WHY is he hiding it? Is it because he really likes you but doesn’t want to risk getting into trouble, making things awkward, or embarrassing himself OR…. Is he hiding it because he knows the relationship wouldn’t work, he doesn’t want a relationship, he has a girlfriend, wife, etc.

Observe his behavior talk to him ask him things like if he has a girlfriend and see how he engages the conversation. Does his eyes wrinkle when he smiles? Does he engage the conversation etc. and be direct…. If you make a move and get rejected. You’ll know. Move on. You’ll have closure and won’t waste tour time. If he says yes amazing.

There’s those reasons someone would be hiding attraction. One reason is they like you and aren’t opposed to something more but are nervous or otherwise have concerns. The other is…. Cut your losses and move on.

@Summeroflove public embarrassment probably, not wanting others listening in

@Tomislav7 I agree with that. Many cases is that but there is people who hide attraction for other reasons. Because even though they feel something….. they have chosen not to pursue it for some reason or another.

When that’s the situation you have to respect it and move on down the road.

very true, this my reluctance is putting myself out there only to get hurt and shamed
