Search Results: should i give him a call

Hii there! I need your help!

There is a very shy boy in my college that I like. We are both 21 years old. I thought he might like me as he seemed quite nervous when he was talking to me, he didn't ask me a you, he kept enough distance between us and I have seen him look at me several times and sometimes smile a little (I know these are subtle signs but I thought may be signs). I asked him how he was doing personally and he replied that he was not at all interested in being with anyone and that he should get to know the other person well first and he didn't ask me if I have someone. I told him to exchange social media if I want to ask him something about the school and he said we will meet in person, no need, we are not lost. He never greets first either (I think because he is very shy and doesn't talk to many people). I know his parents are very strict. One time his mother called 2 times when we talked to ask him where he is and why he is late. In social events, he is always with them and he seem kinda lost and unhappy. I believe they influenced him based of his shy and not social behaviour.

Is this typical shy guy behavior to reject someone? Should I give up and move on?

He is 27 and I’m 30. We work together in a small team and have worked together for just over two years now. I believe we have a flirty relationship. He is nice to everyone and always jokes/has a laugh with everyone, so it would be difficult to know whether he was into me. Examples of his flirting include:

- We have a lot of eye contact. Sometimes I will catch him staring at me or the eye contact will be very prolonged. Haven’t noticed the pupil dilation at all.

- He does silly things just to get my attention. He will grab my hair clip, press something on my keyboard or touch my chair.

- On a night out, someone thought he was my husband for some reason, and he said “I should be so lucky”

- Outside of work he is very “huggy” but won’t touch me at work

- He laughs at silly things I do and calls me “daftie” occasionally

- I was stressing about an upcoming event because I was having my hair and makeup done. He asked me why I was having someone else do it and I said “because I want to look beautiful”, to which he said “why don’t you just do it yourself”

- sometimes I will see him look at my boobs

- he sometimes gets a little jealous I think. When another man gave me a lift into work, he called me a “wimp” and when I asked for help on something, he said “why don’t you get “other guy” to help you”
