Search Results: is staring attraction

Does it mean that you want to get to know her better?
Or are you just physically attracted and don't want to take it any further?

For example:
a guy never used to take much notice of the girl at work (when they never spoke before & were complete strangers).
But, now they've both spoken to eachother a few times and became 'friends' on facebook, this guy now constantly checks her out and stares at her, but instantly looks away when she catches him staring. This guy stares constantly at her face, when having group conversations at work (when he could have easily stared at other people instead, but he chooses to just stare at her). He also sometimes smiles and laughs at her jokes.

~ Is it just physical attraction?
~ Or does he like her, but is too shy to talk to her directly?
~ or has he just started developing feelings?

He would always linger when we're about to leave or try to stall me. There was one time he actually walked me down into my train station. And then the other when he tried to gather his things slowly but then sped up a lot quicker when he realise I was gonna leave. The other day he followed me down the stairs halfway through before saying/realising he had to head up as all his stuff (bag) was still there and he still had work to do.

He also seems eager to please me and would apologise for things that he doesn't have to. He would also keep praising me on my work and would emohasize just how great it was.

We were seated side by side the other day and when he had to navigate sth on my computer, his forearm rested on my thigh the entire time. It could be angle issue but he never made an attempt to slightly raise it to avoid touching me. When he was talking to me, he would look into my eyes and then stare at my lips - it got a bit intense so I had to look away for a bit as we were in a work setting.

Is this just physical attraction or beyond that?
