Hey fishes! I need your help in decoding this guy I met in uni

We were in the same class last year and I'd catch him staring at me several times throughout the semester (around 12 times within our 2 hr class each week). He also does this thing where he sees me and quickly walks in front of me, then turns his head slightly to watch me from the corner of his eye.

For any other guy, I'd assume the staring means he likes me but I'm not sure about this one because he's quite a few years older, is a well respected professional etc. and it's hard to believe he'd feel this way about me because I'm basically a potato. But the main reason I'm having doubts is because he's never approached me at all. He's quite social and popular, so I don't think he's that shy. He talks and laughs with my friends when I'm sitting with them, but then seems to purposely ignore me after going out his way to linger and converse with those around me.

The only dead giveaway that he would like me is the fact that he completely froze when we unexpectedly bumped into each other outside of class alone. We locked eyes for a solid 6 seconds, no blinking, and he looked vulnerable. I was frozen too and couldn't breathe lol. I'm pretty sure he went through the same thing because when I eventually snapped out of it and broke the eye contact, he suddenly jolted (as if he snapped out of it too) and then nervously kind of powerwalked/ran across me to line up for food. He did the whole turning-head-slightly-to-stare again throughout the whole time he was in line.

I'm absolutely petrified of the strength of my feelings and kinda don't want to make a fool out of myself. I'm in need of your insight! Does he like me or is he staring because he thinks I'm a creep? LOL. If he does like me, why is he acting this way? How do I approach him?

He has a moon in scorp and venus in aqua. Me, a sun+moon in cancer and venus in gem.

You're material for his spank bank I guess.
Romantic, just how I like em

Haha in all seriousness though, I was hoping this was something a little deeper than being just that 😒
youΒ΄re setting yourself up for a huge let down.

your opening post is really just wishful projection.

of course you will never admit that. because you need to reason your wishful thinking.

pisces with a scorp moon and aqua venus - are quite magnetic and charismatic; so in that respect i understand why you are attracted, but your feelings say nothing about how the other person feels.

also, pisces with those placements are inclined to observe a lot. and i mean A LOT. they study their surroundings; the people in it; it is like a second nature to them to feel out situations and environments.

Nah, I can admit it's wishful thinking - I never acted out on my feelings just in case I made a fool of myself. I just needed someone to tell it to me knowing the background, which is why I posted. Thanks for your insight, I appreciate it πŸ™‚

It seems like he does πŸ™‚

Everything is different when your heart

jumps and you have strong feelings for

someone. I was quiet and stared if I saw

someone I had strong feelings for in HS.




Thanks for your insight πŸ™‚ would you have appreciated if your crush in HS approached you? (Just trying to gauge whether or not I should with him)
Hmm...

Back then...

Well anytime someone breaks

the ice (male or female) is nice.

You get pass what "may be" and

just stick to "what is". Hard to know

for sure what the other thinks if

no one crosses the bridge.

My challenge was that I was too

shy to get out of my head and cross.

But yeah if you feel in your heart

to initiate first then taalk to him.

Why not? If he likes you or if he

doesn't either way I'm sure it'll

spark a very interesting conversation.

Goo to himmm πŸ™‚

haha okay, I'll break the ice. But after reading these responses, I'll make sure i won't be pursuing anything in particular πŸ˜›

Are you in your 20s? Start lowering your expectations with others. Who has time for staring. Let us know when he actually does something. And stop reading Twilight. πŸ™‚
Yep, young and foolish, and will do πŸ™‚ Thanks for the advice

Ironically I haven't been reading Twilight, I've been reading Dxpnet LOL

Update?!?!?!'

I think he likes you. As a pisces sun scorpio moon cusp

the way the guy interacts with you is exactly how I interact when a girl really catches my eye.

I have a huge crush right now and this is exactly how I would interact act around her in a group.

I'd purposefully talk to everyone else and ignore her.

I also found myself staring at her unintentionally. She caught me a few times.

I completely forgot I posted on here, sorry!! He likes me LOL! A lot more than I thought πŸ™‚

When I spoke to him directly in the group setting for the first time (this was after I posted on here and read the replies), he ignored me completely and didn't even look at me - just kept his eyes on my other friends. I took it that he just really wasn't into me at all.

Fast forward a week later and my friends and I needed help with some work, which he volunteered to help us with. I didn't bother trying to speak to him again, and just let him explain things to my friends while I listened in the background. At the end of it all, he asked each of us if we understood the work but got really nervous when he asked me (he spoke to me last). I nodded, and said "thanks" and gave a polite smile, and he went completely red and ran away again without saying anything LOL.

Fast forward a few months and he told me that he didn't mean to ignore me.. he just felt too nervous to reply and thought if he did, he'd make a fool of himself. I told him that after he ignored me, I thought he just hated me because he used to stare but never say anything, as if he was judging me and didn't think I was worth talking to. He said I completely mistook this as well, and that he was attracted and again too nervous so all he could do was stare. I still haven't grown the balls to let him or any of my friends know how I feel. I can tell he knows I like him, but he's got absolutely no clue about just how much πŸ™‚

Tldr; we like each other, definitely don't ignore your crush!

Ooooh, this makes me so happy! I actually posted something very very similiar a week ago. I have the EXACT same problem with this Pisces guy from my college classes.

You just gave me so much hope that maybe the fact that he ignores me and looks at everone else except for me and acts weird might mean that he likes me..and doesn't hate me haha.

Haha, glad I could do so. It's difficult to know where you stand when this happens, especially if they're really social in general and good at hiding how nervous they are around you

Hope it turns out well, good luck!

Ah yes, forgot to mention that^ to you Charlixte.

It hurt a lot more than anticipated when I mistook his brushing off as actually disliking me, and this was AFTER I'd already told myself not to expect too much. Be careful, just in case!
