What does it mean if a guy stares at the floor when he sees you?

[Anonymous]

Basically the question. If a guy sees a girl, looks at her for a couple of seconds and then stares at the floor, what does it mean, if anything?

In conversation, when someone looks to the side they don't want to continue the conversation. When they look up they don't know the truth, when they look down they are lying. Similarly here, if a guy's eyes meet yours and he looks down, his body language is trying to lie to you.. to say he isn't interested when in reality he is. It's less embarrassing that way.

Depends on what happened between you... It nothing has happened between you it just means he's shy and uncomfortable/anxious in that situation. If you guys were involved before and a mess happened it can kind of mean shame/disappointment.

This applies to both men.and women, looking down in the way you described is a sign that the person sees himself as inferior.

Maybe he's trying not to stare at you. A similar thing would be to look away in another direction.

He's shy...not interested... low confidence...is thinking...or has nothing to say.
