Guys, what does eye contact/staring mean to you?

I'm just wondering. When you check out this one girl once in awhile, or like when you have eye contact with her, you hold it for awhile before breaking it away without smiling, what are you actually thinking? I mean, being attracted and being interested in a girl that you want to get to know her more are 2 dif things right?

Am just curious, cause at recent school camps in college, I've seen this guy look in my direction quite a few times. but I don't really notice or observe him a lot so I'm not sure if I'm just daydreaming or sth. But there was this incident where he was looking at me and then I looked up at him, and we had like 2 sec eye contact b4 he looked away. And another where he came into the lift, stood beside me and glanced at me for awhile.

So yup, just wondering what it meant to you? thanks for the opinions! :D

    He likes you. A guy doesn't stare at a girl so much if he didn't have feelings for her or find her attractive. Guys don't have lots of facial muscles, so when he is staring at you he is not concentrating on his facial features rather than a female who would show more expressions. Also, when a guy stares you up and down, in other words checking you out is kind of his way of saying "I'm considering you a sexual partner" (don't ask). He may of gotten caught staring at you, so therefore he looked away quickly because he was embarrassed. But if it is a recurring thing, then he may like you.

    Yeah you kinda got the concept, staring / making eye contact with a girl doesn't mean the guy likes her. In MY perspective, it can mean three things:

    1. The guy is comfortable talking to the girl, and is comfortable with her presence around (just friends). I plenty of friends that are girls and I always make eye contact when I talk to them, it's just casual u kno?

    2. The guy wants to meet the girl / is interested in her (acquaintance). Either that, or... the girl is weird-looking or ugly lol. But still, guys wouldn't stare at a girl that long if she's like that.

    3. The guy likes the girl. He doesn't know how to express his feelings, but wishes he could find a way to do so.

    I would tell you straight up how to tell which one of these views does a guy mean when he makes eye contact or stares, but I don't think I can. You should just.. kinda sense it.

    Good luck, you'll be more familiar with it along the way haha. Hope this helped ;)

    definitely noticing you. More importantly, your noticing HIM..consider this girls naturally notice guys first(they just hide it better) so if your noticing him AFTER he's staring at you, it might mean your not that interested in him, but hes staring and projecting so hard that it gets your attention may also be intentional. He might be a stalker..or just trying to figure out where he recognizes you from. If you are interested in him try to find out more about him..is he cool or a psycho..use a third party to get intel if possible. If hes okay and checks out then hes probably shy or in a situation (girlfriend etc..) in that case make life easier on both of you and strike up a conversation..even if hes hitched you might become good friends waiting in the wings for something more.. Drop an interesting book (about homelessness or endangered species) near him or see if he holds a door for you, basically see if hes a gentleman.Your right that attracted and interested are two different things..He might be both, or attracted but not interested in pursuing anything with you (could be devoutly religious,studious or "involved")..or worse interested but not attracted because hes a master manipulator,queer(no offense intended) or a pimp, (lol not trying to scare you..but this is real life im telling you about.)

    It means respect to a guy when someone does some eye contact to him.

  • 1 decade ago

    It means he is attracted to you. He finds you alluring and everything that comes with it. His shyness is what makes him afraid. Don't worry as he will come around. First things come first. Give it time; but not too much! For no other reason, start communicating and get to know one another. You are on his mind but he can't seem to break the ice. Wait and see what happens next. You and he will be together.

    its a culture thing.. for some people its a sign of respect kinda like patting a hispanic on the shoulder as a greeting, but to others eye contact could be awkward if their are out of their comfort zone, like in a hospital. it varies from person to person and is more context sensitive.

    good luck
