Search Results: reading a smile

I was chatting with my crush and he was complaining that he’s tired and we should have shorter week days. I said “oh definitely, I agree” and he said “well if YOU agree then I’ll go to the big boss about it”. It didn’t sound sarcastic and the whole time, he had a smile on his face. But he is always smiling when we interact.

I see him almost every day. He always smiles at me and we say hi. Sometimes I catch him staring at me as he is walking past, and then when I look at him, he smiles and says hello.

I notice him looking at me from across the room in the canteen.

He always smiles when he sees me. And in general, he looks grumpy and has resting bitch face. I’ve seen him interact with other people (e. g. the lady serving him at the till, and he had a neutral face).

When we talk, he is smiling/laughing for almost the entire duration of the interaction. He will also be fixated on my face/eyes and we hold eye contact. He will stare at my eyes for approximately 10 seconds or more. He also doesn’t move away if I move closer to him.
I was once chatting to him on his break, and I apologised and said “sorry, I’m keeping you from your break” and he said “no it’s ok”

There is probably more information but I can’t remember haha.
Based on this, could he be into me?

Hello all 😊

I know this question probably seems odd, but I don’t have a lot of experience with men and I’m quite crap at reading signals. I also have no confidence because my first crush humiliated me. I’ve been seeing this guy at work and he caught my eye. He doesn’t work in my department. The interactions started with him smiling at me with prolonged eye contact (I have never really seen him talking to girls outside of his department except for one who works in the canteen)

It was always him who smiled first and it was me who looked away first

I eventually said hi to him and we have little conversations now and then

After I first said hi to him, he went though a phase of ignoring me and looking away from me when we were in the same area

When we talk, he stands quite close to me and his pupils are very dilated

When we are talking, his eyes are fixated on mine and he will glance at my lips quickly before going back to my eyes

He seems somewhat fidgety when we talk
Yesterday, he smiled and we said hi, and then when I started chatting to him properly, he smiled even more

I was walking to the canteen and my (prettier) friend was walking in front. He was walking towards us but he was fixated on me and didn’t even look at her

My friends say they have seen the way he looks at me, and to quote, “they would be upset if their boyfriend looked at another girl the same way”
I’ve noticed that when we are in the same vicinity, he will tidy his hair and check it in his phone camera

Sometimes we won’t have any interaction, just a few glances and that’s it

It’s just baby steps at the moment, but do you think he may find me attractive?
