Search Results: getting caught staring

Hi! :) There's this foreign exchange student who has recently come to my school from France, and surprisingly, he lives only 3 or 4 houses away from mine. I have bumped into him here and there but I had never known he was in fact the French kid every other girl was talking about. I've had a big crush on him without even knowing where he came from, and now I feel kind of awkward knowing he's the French kid every other girl likes JUST because he's French.
To get to the point, I had asked his name last Monday seeing that he was at the same party as me and sitting alone. He seems rather shy but he's super kind. Yesterday, I thought I'd even sit with him on the bus to give him some company. We got to talking and he asked me for my number. I gave him a notecard with a cute little "I'd like to get to know you sometime." in French and I wrote my number down. He smiled, said he really liked it and my handwriting was very neat.

The whole time, we stared in each other's eyes and we asked each other questions. It was fun getting to learn about his culture and all, and to be honest, he was blushing a little bit. The same day towards the end of the school day, I happened to make eye contact with him when passing and he smiled at me. As for today, the same thing happened only this time he mouthed the word "hello" to me as well. He also seems to look at me when I'm talking to my other guy friends, but when I catch him, he looks away. I really REALLY like this guy and I was hoping to invite him over next week for dinner but what I don't get is he hasn't texted me yet when he asked for my number? If it helps, I gave it to him just yesterday and he seemed to hold it in his hands like it was very delicate, which is adorable... So what's going on and what is your opinion?

Hey there and thanks for reading,

I started seeing a guy for a month now. He is really handsome and we have lots of things in common. He messages me everyday and is very affectionate ( he cups my face when he kisses me, caresses my hair a lot, kisses me in the forehead and gives me little kisses everywhere) We've been on six dates and in the last one we had sex. He was super sweet. While we were having sex, he asked me what I was thinking, he stared at my eyes and searched for my hand. He also kissed my forehead. After the sex, I said I had to leave so I cuddle with him and left after fifteen minutes or so. He didn't offer me to stay. However, that was two days ago and he still messages me normally, we talk about music and books that we like, like always. He hasn't mentioned the sex and neither have I.

The catch is that we're both seing other people and we talked about this since the beggining. He is very rational and says that he doesn't want to get into a relationship until he is convinced. He also mentioned that he falls into relationships and that he doesn't plan them. I was cool with that since I'm also seeing other guys and seeing what happens.

But! on the fifth date, I asked him out to go out on Saturday and he said he was seing a girl that he mentioned is his friends with benefits. I freaked out a bit although I knew about this since day one. It was an unexcpected reaction. I told him I coudln't have sex with him since he was having sex with another girl. He said that he didn't wanted to ruin things, that he liked me and enjoyed spending time with me. We kind of left it at that and kissed at the end of the date like nothing had happened.

In the six date we had sex, we didn't mentioned anything about me freaking out about him sleeping with other girl. Or my willingness to sleep with him now. It just happened.

What do you guys think?

In one hand, I think he likes me because he is very affectionate, seems very interested in getting to know me better and its very respectful of what I think. However, he might just want to have his cake and eat it too.

Thanks a lot. Sorry for the long post.

I'm a sophomore, quiet, no friends, social anxiety, basically a giant loser. I was planning on going through the school year without getting involved in things like relationships or whatever, but on the second week of school a Spanish exchange student caught my eye. He was shy, smart, nice, and cute. I had no (still don't) expectation of him even noticing me, much less talking or getting feelings for me. I tried to write him off and ignore him but I began to notice him staring at me at times (probably because I'd cast a few lingering glances his way and he's thinking, "Who tf is this creepy girl who keeps looking at me?") and we talked on three occasions; the first he asked if we could both review our goals for the school year (had to review them with three different people), the second I gathered up my courage and asked him questions about studying abroad, and the third he came over and shot hoops with me for a minute.

I'll admit, I was beginning to get my hopes up that maybe a crush liked me for once, only to have him ask a girl that is better than me in every way (pretty, popular, nice, no hard feelings towards her) with this really cute sign that said "I came all the way from Spain to ask you to Homecoming". I'm really happy for them, they're both great people, but I admit I may have shed a few tears in the bathroom during lunch (pathetic, I know).

Later that day, during English, I was feeling much better and talked to my teacher about studying abroad (she'd worked in Hong Kong and I've always wanted to study abroad). My crush was listening intently and pulled up a chair. I caught him staring at me with his mouth open (cue moment where I was embarrassed of how ugly I am and felt bad at him for having to look at me) for a split second but quickly looked away. I haven't looked at him at all after I found out other than a few side glances due to me not wanting to come off as creepy. Do I even have a chance? I'm pretty sure I don't.

So I sat by this guy at work the other day and he is very cute. He started talking to me and we had a pretty good conversation. Our work has a messenger app on the computer, we can chat with coworkers and what not. So today (two days later) he knows I get on messenger because yesterday I taught him how and we messaged a bit. Today when I came in for work I guess he saw me pass by because as soon as I got on messenger he messaged me right away! We were getting to know each other and what not... Although 20 minutes before his shift ended he stopped replying... But throughout our shift he kept staring at me from time to time. Also, I caught him smiling when he would read my messages (most of them weren't funny). I was the only person he was messaging because their was only one thread (me) visible. So what do you guys think?
