So we work in this office, and I happened to notice how different she is from other girls, and I like that. I've dropped her a few hints that I'm interested in her, and I'm pretty sure she knows that I'm interested, but how can I tell if she's interested in me? I hardly get to talk to her, we just say Hi sometimes and make very, very small talk, I hardly know her, but I know she's single (from a friend of hers) ... I asked her for her email and she gave it to me. She's a nice girl, and I want to get to know her. ( So if you're a shy girl ... would you even make an effort to show him that you're interested ?)

okay, when someone takes interest in me, I am so shy, I wouldn't even look at him even though I might be interested. does she ask about you from other people. when you see her, there's this expression like she acknowedges you. it might not be a smile but she seems to know who you are. the e-mail does not help either. she could be just too nice to reject your asking for her e-mail and maybe too nice to reject replying back also. but don't stop trying. a shy girl like that just keeps it all inside and sometimes don't tell anyone who they like. haha...bet she's nice though. ;D do continue to say hi to her and ask her about her day. you have to do all the work dude for this girl. is she cute? :D if she is, she gets a lot of attention but not a lot of dates. if she likes you, if you keep on saying hi everyday, I bet she might smile a fee times. that's the only way to tell.

Having been painfully shy - the guy is terrified you will reject him in some fashion and at this very moment is intellectualizing away about how you are clearly not in his league and therefore he should just give up now - The amount of time a guy is willing to send on something Will of course tell you about his interests or lack thereof - Move slowly or you may give him a heart attack - Shy people are not used to quick moving anything But he is interested from the sound of it - So do what you would do to build a relationship with a skid-dish dog - Go slow and be consistent - until he is sure you won't try to eat him

I am a very shy girl. I never talked to a guy or made any kind of first moves. I missed out on a lot of guys because they were shy too. I would always smile slightly and look at them when they weren't looking at me, but you have to make a move. If she gave you her email, she is hoping that yall will start talking more. and if she didn't like you even just a little bit, she probably would not try to talk to you, even if it is just hey and how r u? Trust me on this, my boyfriend and I are both very shy. If it wasn't for me, we would not be where we r now, which is talking about marriage. When we first started talking though, I thought that he really was not that interested in me, but once I made a first move for the first time, we both knew that we were meant to be.

Not saying this is good, but I have a hard time letting on that I'm interested, I'm more concerned with the what ifs, what if he doesn't like me, what if I'm imagining things, what if I'll make an idiot of myself. That could be your coworker's case too. What would get her to open up? Try emailing her. See what you get. Maybe make the email something neutral and light in tone. But don't give up! If I were her I wouldn't want you to give up.

I'm very shy and I have worked with someone I liked and he had no idea when I told him. It was very obvious he liked me but I'm just weird like that and wont show I'm interested back. I'd say ask her out, what do you have to lose? Shes probaly too shy and waiting for you to make a move.

She may just think your a friend and you're trying to be nice. I think you should try and hang around her more. If you become her best friend you're good to go! Once your her friend you can start complimenting her, going out for coffee, and just having fun. If she gets suspicious or something and goes away, then she's not right. Once your her friend, she may show some interest in you. It depends what she's looking for in a guy.
Also, don't be someone you're not. Be yourself and see if she likes you. That's always the key thing. BE YOURSELF.

If she's that shy, she's probably waiting for you to make the first move. If she smiles a lot at you, or watches you (or pointedly doesn't watch you) it probably means she likes you. The best way to work around a shy personality, I think, is to be direct. Just ask her out, subtle flirting can be difficult for us shy girls.

She gave you her email address. That's a good sign. Email her and ask her to lunch or to have coffee. It appears that she is interested, but don't count on her to make the first move

i used to be really shy! I always tried to "act" like I wasn't as interested, but I was really feeling the same way you are. I made it the guys job to make the first move. You have to be the brave one here and ask her to go to lunch or dinner.
