What does it mean if a guy pinches your cheek? (the ones on your face!)

[Anonymous]

Guys, would you just do it to any girl? Even if you weren't attracted to her?

The guy who did it to me doesn't usually make that kind of contact so I was pretty surprised, I was dozing off on a chair and I felt a pinch on my cheek so I looked up and it was him then he walked past me.

I like him but I'm not sure if he likes me back, I know he's shy but I'm too scared to make the first move in case maybe it's not mutual and he rejects me.

The only thing I will tell you is if you like him you go and aski him. There is nothing to be affraid of if you don't try you'll never get anywhere. I have been rejected 67 times to be exact and I got over being rejectedafter the first one. You should be happy with yourself, I am sure you are a wonderful lady and any man would be glad to get to know you. Unless your suicidal then things change, just joking. So don't worry and just be you and give it hell you have nothing to lose. Good luck and if you ask he will say yes unless he's gay.

I don't know any guy who has ever pinched a girl's cheek as his first time touching her physically.

The guy must be super confident that you guys have a friendly comfort level, and knew you wouldn't freak if he did that.

So he's comfortable around you.

But personally, I would never do that to a girl I like. It's weird. Pinching cheeks to annoy your little cousins.

Yes, that and the chin chuck, these are two ways to rock her back on her heels, since rarely do they know how to interpret those gestures.

It means they think you are cute, but shy, or are overly aggressive and cute, depending on the situation. IN your case, obviously, it was shy and cute.
