There is a guy in my Algebra II class who just LOVES attention and acts like a funny, but total nutcase. I laughed a couple of times at his some of his jokes, and now he seems to be directing a good deal of attention towards me. For example, at least once every day, when I say or do something, he likes saying something like "You are so smart, Sarah!" which makes me smile a bit (for HOW he says it), then shrug it off. He also likes cracking jokes, and sometimes when he looks at me to see if I show any hint of a smile, he says "I see that smile," and after repeating that a couple more times (after I try hiding it because I'm so introverted) he says "There it is!" And lately he likes singing a little line when he looks at me ("I miss you so") and yesterday he decided to sing a little diddy from West Side Story (Maria's song, "I feel pretty") and he was looking at me the whole time until he reached the "gayyyy!" part (scanned the room).
So, is this typical attention seeking behavior or...?
