Should I leave him alone or try to be his friend?
How do I deal with this situation?
I lately approached a man in a friendly way and he flirted with me and seemed to like it. I am sure he knows I’m paying attention, but I still don’t make a point of sitting with him, occasionally I say Hi but I still carry on my way. I know he isn’t married and has had disappointing relationships. He is frequently quiet and I find that not easy to deal with. He seems to enjoy it when I talk and he smiles like I have made his day. But I would like for him to initiate a chat or approach me.
I am open to meeting other men and I don’t want to focus too much on him, but I want to follow my heart and not keep away from him - since really he’s done nothing wrong – I am just not sure how to go on. Any advice?
answer:
Why would you keep away from him? It’s not like something awful actually happened? I wouldn’t hold out too much hope, however. It sounds like you’ve made it more than clear that you’re open to any advances he might make and he’s not making them.
Who knows? Possibly he’s ending it right now with somebody else to free himself up to pursue you. Stay open.
He sounds shy and the reality that you kind of blew him off a few times probably made him feel like he should back off. For all you know he still likes you, approach him if you still see him, try to be friendly again. What’s the worst that can happen? If the discussion seems like it’s going well, ask him out to like coffee or something.
