Search Results: flirting or telling how you feel

My boss has been acting really creepy with me. At times he seems to like me and even flirts with me, but as soon as I express my own opinion about something, he gets irritated and tries to make it like HE calls the shots in my life. For example, I'll tell him about something I'm happy about (not work-related) and instead of simply being happy for me, he'll start trying to tell me how I should feel about it, like he's trying to "teach" me or something. It's like he wants to suck the joy out of me by judging and telling me how to feel. It comes across as extremely controlling and it feels like he literally wants to own/dominate me. Like I belong to him or something.

Mind you, this guy is married.

Why is he doing this?

I often experience B. I’ll regret not telling someone how I feel and then find out later that they were actually into me.

There was this new student. I never really tried to approach him because i didn't care to plus i wasn't initially attracted. But then we went on this field trip and i hung with him all day. Omg the feelings really started to boil. By the end of the year, I told the cousin of his cousin. Lol big mistake. Next school year, He passes me and says “I Know Something You Dont Know.”! Lol I immediately ran to my friend (the cousin of his cousin) bt she promised she didn't tell him. Lol Lies! One day i sit and talk with Him and he's like “I know you like me.” I was like “who told you, Liz?” And he goes, “yea but dont tell her i told you. so you used to like me huh?” Me freakin out inside, im like “USED TO.” Lmao then he's like “Wait why dont you like me anymore?” Haha i thought it was so cute that he was disappointed that i was possibly over him. Then he goes, “if i kiss you right now, would you start liking me again?” omg i was ecstatic but i turned him down. One, because he was just flirting with an enemy of mine IN MY FACE earlier that day, and Two, because we were in a class that contained me, my female enemy, 6 of my ex-crushes and this one quiet kid.

I’ve also experienced A where i told someone how i felt and ended up regretting it. Ling story short, he was my best friends brother. He flirted and she always told him “YALL ALWAYS SIDE WITH EACHOTHER BECAUSE y'all LIKE EACHOTHER.” And yea he denied it, but not in a mean way. More of a, possibly lying to himself way. Anyways, when i told her to tell him how i felt years later? it resulted in the end of our friendship. Smh.

As for C, I’ve only backed away when it was a best friend telling me his feelings. I mean, Im flattered but if he constantly tries to make me “want” him, then i run. I guess i can see now why I experienced option A with my friend guy.

I've been texting a guy for 2 weeks. He seems genuine. Telling me he never wants to lose me, that it's nice to have a girl like me in his life, etc. He's been snapping me everyday, and usually provides an explanation when he doesn't. He flirts with me (and also tells me I'm beautiful, not to be insecure, and tries to keep me safe) , we've sexted, and he's drunk texted me once. But we don't exchange nudes. He doesn't pressure me to send or to receive them. But he's mentioned that he wants to send me a vid of him jacking off for me though. He recently broke up with a girlfriend of 6 weeks and reassured me that it wasn't because of me. He says that he doesn't feel horrible about breaking up with her b/c they wanted different things in the relationship. He's still snapping me everyday, but less frequently and he's busy. Sometimes I can see his snapscore go up even when we don't talk. But I've been his#1 best friend after a few days of first talking to him. In most of his texts, he still says cute flirty things and adds " ;) or :) or XD or haha, lol)

Is he pretend interested in me or genuinely interested (and just busy these few days)
