What does this mean from a guy?

[Anonymous]

he's is hot and cold with another person at work but he’s warm with me and his students like my class. He also calls me by my last name

like hey Roberts

He’s signaling something just not in a dramatic way.

When a guy is hot and cold with one person but consistently warm with you, that contrast usually tells you more than his actual words.

It means you land in a different category for him someone he respects, enjoys, or feels comfortable around.

Calling you by your last name is its own little clue.

Guys do that when they want to sound playful professional, when they like your presence, or when they’re trying to create a “you and me” rhythm without crossing any lines.

Put simply
He treats you with steadiness and that steadiness itself is the message.

He sees you differently, in a good way.

The other coworker distanced herself from me… I think she was attracted to him too but

[Bitter_Sweet94]

It makes sense she pulled back if she liked him too.

People get awkward or protective when they feel someone else might have a stronger connection with the person they want.

But her reaction doesn’t change the dynamic between you and him.

What he shows you is still based on how he feels, not on what she feels.

I don’t think it means anything for him to get along better with you than he does with someone else specifically because he’s a guy. Sometimes we mesh well with one person than we do with another and it has nothing to do with romantic interest.

He likes you as a friend

[Asker]

What about the other coworker

[Alex-Snow]

Does he seem interested in her also? Are they dating?

[Asker]

No they aren’t. He seems hot and cold with her

[Alex-Snow]

Is this guy single? Do you follow each other on socials?

[Alex-Snow]

Do u like this guy and want maybe more? IS he ur age?

[Asker]

No we don’t

Yes I like him.. he’s 2 years older than me and she’s 2 years older than him

[Alex-Snow]

Maybe ask him out even if it is for a cup of coffee or a walk. See how it goes?

[In_Trance]

Nothing

[Asker]

Or he likes me and doesn’t like her.
