? asked in Family & RelationshipsFriends · 8 years ago

he knows I like him...why is he avoiding me?

theres a boy in my sociology class that i like.

he goes to the high school across town so i see him like, four times a week in that class only. Hes usually with his friend david so its harder to get him on his own.

well, me and this guy have a LOT in common -- like seriously it wouldnt be hard to talk to him we share the same interests in music, movies, etc, everything.

so my friend ended up telling HIM that i might possibly, definitely like him.

he wouldnt reply to her and went all quiet.

she and my other friends are trying to figure out waht his silent meant...i mean, he didnt say no. if he didnt like me he would've said 'eww...no' or something similiar, right?

now hes avoiding me. being all quiet, he wont look at me and stuff, and the other day he came into the room of my sociology class and i caught him looking at me, before turning away.

i get it, hes a teenage boy, and i wont tell him i like him to his face (thats just awkward, and strange) but seriously whats going on? why is he avoiding me? is it because he's shy or something? or does he just not like me?

how can you tell if he likes you or not, even if hes avoiding you?

also, hes a little awkward at times. he has no problems talking to people in our class (people that are closely sat next to him) and get this, way last year in like october 2012 i used to sit at the table across from him and caught him looking at me so much...then i moved to the back of the class and i guess that changed.

seriously what the hell is going on with this guy? why is he acting like this NOW?

PLEASE HELP.

    Well, maybe he does like you and is just shy. I know I could have the best time with someone talk to them everyday but when I find out they like me I shut down. Mostly because I'm nervous. I start avoiding that person. Maybe he doesn't know what to say or how to act? I know you said you didn't want to approach him about it but I really think you should. That's what guys do to me. I'm a very shy person so once the guy starts talking to me more i seem to ease up and everything goes back to normal. What I'm saying is take chance. Even though it may still be a small chance he doesn't like you. You only live once. And I hope I helped.

    Oh my god! I have the same ******* problem as you! It's so similar I think you got the words out of my mouth! Only with me it's common interests in the army and stuff... The bit where your friend told him you like him was actually my cousin though and he didn't reply and now he's awkward and has ALL the shy boy simptoms you've described... Hun I'm just as confused as you xD This boy drives me nuts yet he's really nice and opens up then the min something about a relationship comes up he ignores me for centuries... He actually rejected me once when I didn't even ask him out yet and then came apologising and it was all awkward ... He is so strange during one of his silent treatments he would randomly call my name if he saw me and I would just stand there confused which probably makes him even

    More nervous but I like him we just can't be normal around each other... If they like us... God knows... But in my opinion ....

    Source(s): (Experienced thinking this over for three years) I think he likes you it's just something is getting in the way! It could be that he doesn't know you well enough or it could be that he can't date you because of religion or even something personal like his family life (I would ask him about it of I were you) xxx good luck I hope a guy here sent from god will actually comment! XD

    Basically you need to stop acting like a puss and ask him if he likes you or not. If he doesnt then youre no worse off than you are now and if he does then you can stop posting questions about it on yahoo answers.

    "if he didnt like me he would've said 'eww...no' or something similiar, right?"

    How old are you exactly? You may be overthinking.

    He is playing hard to get girl, if you want his **** you have to try harder

    just point out to him, hey what's up? you seem to be avoiding me lately... what's up?

    and then if he still ignores you, then be like 'oh is it something my friend said? haha right...what did you think when she said that?' and try and pretend it's nothing big

    or just start talking to him again like hey name______

    he probably does like you but just try talking to him :)

    good luck
