Guys- Do you always stare at girls you like?

Question

Is it possible for a guy to like a girl and not stare at her? If he is also sweet to me and helps me with school and compliments me and teases me but just doesn't stare at me?

Also he has a nickname for me that no one else uses. Could that be a sign of anything?

Answer 1

This is actually a difficult question to answer, Being the fact that not all guys are the same. Let me try and hit this from two sides. I apologize if this doesn't come out as a straight answer.

Normally guys that don't stare, have alot on their mind and/or simply don't. Some guys, that may not have alot, could simply be that they are focused on whatever it is that they are so in depth in. It doesn't mean that a guy hasn't noticed, he may have looked at you when you least expected it. Lastly, he just may be someone helpful that doesn't want or isn't ready for a relationship and so he is content with just being a friendly guy.

The other side of the coin is where you will want to be careful. Suppose he has been watching you and when you turn to look he goes back to whatever he was doing. You can't really tell his what his honest motives are in that kind of a situation. If he is looking at you and he ends up being everywhere you turn, then you are in trouble. He maybe stalking you.

On a positive side, if he like...pops out of nowhere randomly whenever you need help then he may be waiting to see when the best time to ask you out might be, or he still could just be content with simply being friends.

By the way you describe him, he doesn't sound like a stalker... but be careful anyways. If the two of you get together, he may not seem all that impressive anymore. If there is an oppurtunity, and you feel okay about it, ask him if he would like to go out for a cup of coffee, or something that could give you the chance to get to know him.

Now for Me, since that is what your title question is asking. I do look at my girl. For instance, she and I were cooking dinner in the kitchen together one time. I put a beef roast in the oven and turn to help her with the veggies for our salads. In the middle of cutting a tomato, I just stopped what I was doing and I had to look up. I can't really explain it, I just looked up. It was like a reflex or instinct. Then I was just there with a smile on my face looking at her. When she looked up, she smiled back and asked "What?" "What are you smiling about?". I was speechless at first. The only thing I wanted/could say and did was "I love you." She smiled more and said she loved me too, then we laughed a little cause we couldn't help it nor explain the moment and went back to what we were doing. All I can say is that it is comforting to see her...even if it is just a photo, it feels good to just see her. She makes my life worth while. We are married but we thought about it, and we both feel we would like to be. So we will walk by Faith in God that He will let us unite as one.

So back to your other Q's, you will honestly have to play it by ear, wait and see what unfolds, and enjoy the happiness that the two of you share when you do share it. If it does get into the a relationship(I'd wait and graduate first), cherish it and be faithful to one another. A real sense of Love is hard to find. Once you have it though, your life will feel worth something and like it has a meaning.

Best of luck, and Happiness to you both either way it goes.

Answer 2

Well usually most guys do either give nicknames or stare at the girl they like. Boys do this because they are urged by the beauty of the girl to do this. He will help you and or be sweet to you because usually sweetness and help compel the girl to ask out the guy, if they do tease you it is because they don't know how to talk to you without getting all jittery and scared. These are usually signs of an infatuation.

Answer 3

Actually, the bigger question is, "Why do guys stare at girls they have no intentions of ever approaching or dating?" Some guys like to look, and that's all they want! So I wouldn't put too much stock in the "staring" behavior in itself as evidence of a guy's feelings either way. Gotta look at the entire package, the entire set of behaviors of how this guy is with you or when you are around. Even that is not a guarantee... I cannot understand men at all. Come to think about it, I have no clue as to why I am a top contributor in this category. Ha! Sorry I couldn't be more helpful.. I think there's more to interpreting a guy then whether or not he stares...

Answer 4

Truthfully, it seems a hard habit to break in all guys to not stare at someone we like.

Thenickname could be a sign, depending on the situation you face whenever you both are around each other, but generally a guy calling you by a nickname with humour in their voice is an obvious sign.

Answer 5

I try to avoid staring at girls that I like, but only a fast glance just to see if she was staring at me. I don't want the girl thinking I'm some kind of stalker or something, thats why I never look directly at them from a distance.

Answer 6

Not sure...Maybe u should try smiling at him. Or just when talking to him, talk sweetly..Guys always like sweet girls. Sometimes i dont even stare at the girl i like...Normal reaction.

Answer 7

hey im a gurl..but this mite help..its NOT True at all that if some1 likes u they have to stare. actually the guy who liked me expressd it by being mean to me. but i found out another way... with all the signs u provided.. im sure he likes u : )

Answer 8

no, i stare at girls i am laughing at and making fun of, the ones with the fake tans and their belly hanging out of their shirts wearing short skirts showing their celulite legs are the best to make fun of.

Answer 9

If a woman is very pretty -- or the opposite -- it's hard not to look. Feelings of attraction may have nada to do with.

Answer 10

Well, staring is better than stalking!

Anyway, just ask him, if he likes you, then fine,
If he doesn't...er, just be friends, nothing will get weird because, that's all behind you then. Life goes on...
