Polls: Guy's Behavior

i spoke with my aunt about my crush and said that im not sure if he likes me back or not. she told me that since he isn't talking to me outside of school and church and doesn't text me, he isn't interested. but some people say that texting isn't an indicator of someone's interest. what do you all think?

i trust my aunt's opinion, especially since she isn't blinded by feelings like i may be. but one reason i didn't think much of him texting me is because he is almost never on his phone when we are talking. and he has told me that he's busy and with what. but i have also heard that even a busy man will make time to text the woman he wants. i am confused.

also what are indicators that a guy is interested?

I don't know if it is gag I see too many guys saying that they won't date same age girl but in real life I rarely see guys who want to go for younger girls. We think that they're immature and men agree with us maybe it is because I am young. i also prefer same age guys.

I see a lot of posts from girls on here about a guy staring and giving mixed signals.

Then a common response from men (and women) is "he's shy".

I feel that "shy" is really a man who isn't actually interested but will take whatever is on offer when it is convenient for him.

I'm wearing blush (left) and my friend Eryn had a natural blush.

I'm obviously not talking about abusive kind of hitting, but more like poking and pushing a little bit?

I personally only hit a guy if I'm really into him just to start some kind of skin ship between us, you know?

It's like how guys tease the girls they're into. It doesn't make sense, but it's usually flirty.

Do you guys take it as such? Or do you not like it?

I'm on the the heels of a horrible break up from a relationship I never really wanted to be in anyway.

I'm sore but well on the mend.

This whole thing has been going on for about 6 months.

Long story short, on my street is a really popular and vibrant restaurant. There are a ton of wait staff there, all male.

There are a couple that would kind of scope me out but I felt it was curiosity since I am fairly mysterious.

One server in particular has pathetically, IMHO, tried to get my attention when I would pass by by clearing his throat.

Once he decided to stare and not look away.

I don't jump to these silent cat calls.

He's tried to smile at me and stuff but I've been stoic because he is a smoker and I am judging him. I'll be honest.

Fast forward, I have started getting takeout there from time to time. When I walk in, some of the kitchen staff will look at him when I come in.

I purposely look away and I see him in my peripheral vision staring at me.

When I was waiting for my order, all he could do was stand really close to me when he was ringing in his table and I was ordering take out.

I caught him once staring, he looked away so fast and swallowed so hard. He was so embarrassed.

Th other evening a friend of mine treated me and we ate there.

We were seated at the back. He kept coming to the back sneaking looks at us. He works the patio.

My friend ordered some takout and we were waiting for it on the patio. He came to take our order and went straight up to me. My friend then explained we were just waiting for take out. He smiled and left.

Then he stood at the top of the stairs so he could totally see and hear us but he was pretend not watching.

We both pretend to ignore each other, actually.

I am just still reeling from all the recent emotional abuse and I feel this push-pull behaviour is a sign he is another immature, undercover narc looking for attention from someone he views as vulnerable.

My guy and I have been together for close to 7 years on and off. We are way past the honeymoon phase but I still like being with him a lot. I am noticing however that he perpetually tries to engage me in fights by criticizing my looks or saying things he knows I will react to and then we will argue and emotions will get high and that seems to turn him on more. Recently, we got into our worst fight and he said he wanted to end things and move on. I got really upset etc at first and tried to make up but he was very mad and didn’t make much effort. When I told him off (I typically am never this harsh) and left — it hasn’t been been a few days and he really wants me, even more than normal. He suddenly likes me how I am and wants to only be with me etc and is very sexually attracted to. It makes no sense. Is this normal? Do you feel more turned on after fighting?

Do guys like women who like to stay at home, clean, cook and look after their kids? And even on the more extreme/rough side, don't mind giving women punishments?

• Or do guys like women who focus on their career even if they have kids?
