I’d like to go for it and see if he might be interested…
- in my opinion he could tell I’m interested -> stranger smiling at him, blushing, shying away
- but other behaviors make me seem not interested
What can I do without being a creep? 🥲
We’re neighbours and I don’t wanna become the weird girl he sees at the park…
What if he just feels sorry for me being shy/avoiding him or something
Old post
He walks his dog, I walk my dog. Same neighborhood.
I always avoid him. One day I accidentally smiled at him and turned red. He kept staring at me with no reaction, when I looked away he said hi and got closer, asked a few questions about my dog. My dog started barking, I went fight-or-flight, answered briefly and escaped.
Saw him again yesterday, kept trying to avoid him. He comes my way and was being so different it actually weirded me out. He was sort of clumsy in the way he moved, and usually he seems so self controlled, and he was loud too hahah like talking out loud to his dog but only when I got there. I smiled accidentally again and he asked again about my dog and tried to be funny about her barking. It felt as if he was trying to be fun and friendly? But in a ridiculous way
Because I’m not looking for anyone right now. This happened out of nowhere, and I’ve needed to be alone for a long time, men, friends, people in general.
Well if you want to make it easier to be alone, next time you see him look him dead in the eye and say “Fuck off”. He won’t try anything after that and you can go back to being alone if that’s what you need. No point worrying about whether someone is attracted to you if you have zero intent on following up (even as a friend) - burn the bridge and save yourself the worry.
ops. Guess you just exposed the fact that i’m lying to myself
Then what’s the point of this thread? Whether he likes you or not makes no difference in terms of available outcomes. Sorry, not trying to be combative, just legitimately don’t understand why even care if there’s nothing you plan to do about it.
Yeah I realized this somewhere in the comments haha sorry everyone :) I’m seriously confused
