What does it mean when a man tells a woman he greatly appreciates her company? A guy I like said this to me and I'm hoping that maybe he likes me?

It sounds like he likes you

He might like you, but I'm really not sure. I've never had a man tell that he "greatly appreciates" my company before.

Sorry I couldn't be of more help. :S

It sounds like he likes you

Really? That would be super...




Torrid, I've never had a guy tell me that either... so I thought I would ask. I didn't know if that term was just used for friends or people they like!

Sounds pretty formal. I think it depends entirely on what he's like and how he talks. You could just ask him.

He's a good ol southern boy. Haha.

Sounds like he greatly apreciates your company ;)


Ask him :) ask him what his feelings are you know?

I think he likes you as a companion. In other words, it sounds like he doesn't mind that you keep him company. If he begins asking you to spend more time with him, then maybe it would mean he likes you.

I've never asked a guy something like that before... is it the same as asking them out?

A companion like... just a friend? Well... at least he doesn't mind me being around then, I guess!

no. its not the same. Basically you would say 'so.. do you like me? More than a friend?" and see what his reaction is.

Wow... I dated a good ole southern boy, too. He used to always say just about the same thing. "I really enjoy your company". At the time we were just getting to know each other on a "friend" level. I'd say he means just that. He enjoys your company and is glad you spend time/talk with each other. Time will tell. Best wishes.

Ooooh okay I get it. And if he says no?

Best wishes.

So do you believe it's a positive thing? Like, that he is on his way to liking me, too?

It certainly isn't negative, if he's being sincere. If you are interested in more than a friendship, there's nothing wrong with you making the first move and asking him out. Then you'll know.

Oh wow. That's honestly scary to me. I've never done that before. I don't even know how.

oh wow. thats honestly scary to me. ive never done that before. i dont even know how.

If you are afraid to take the first step, then your only option is to wait it out and see if he makes the first move. Good luck hon.

It would be easier for me if I actually knew how. Sooo I say 'hey, do you like me?'
'yes I do purty thang'
'ok I like you too'
'wanna go out?'

Why do I feel like I messed that up. Haha.

oh wow. thats honestly scary to me. ive never done that before. i dont even know how.

If there's a place you like to visit or a restaurant you enjoy, you could ask him to "accompany" you. Something simple to get to know each other better.

OR continue to keep him company and wait for him to ask you out. Flirting wouldn't hurt... Maybe he's scared, too.

Lol. Inexperianced, yes, messed up, no :P

Your still learning. Just take it slowly and take it as a learning experience. You would be amazed at how many guys find that inexperianced fumbling, stuttering, mumbling kind of question very sweet and endearing. Who knows, this guy might think its cute :D

How did your good ol southern boy flirt with you? I've never really been around one enough to know how they flirt. :/

Well, I'm guessing the southerners are not ALL the same... but mine would compliment me or find a way to touch my hand or arm.. he'd smile at me and look in my eyes when he talked. Very polite... you know, that southern charm.

Oooh this guy does that too! He likes touching my hair a lot. I feel better after reading this. At least I know I'm not hallucinating and imagining his flirting with me! It gives me more confidence, too. But do southern boys like chasing or being asked out?

He likes you love
Unless you own a company that he appreciates

I don't think it matters what part of the country he's from, he would probably feel flattered if you asked him out. Some say men enjoy the chase... but who knows. I'd say go with honesty, don't play cat and mouse games. Leave subtle hints that you like him and let things happen naturally... OR like I said, just ask him. No harm done if he says no and you gain some experience. My bet is it won't be too long that he asks you. Sounds like he is interested. Enjoy

When a guy says something like that to a girl, it usually means he likes her.

Since the two of you like each other but nobody is making the first move then it is time for you to make it before someone else does.

Simply ask him out some where fun like bowling, miniature golf, rollerskating etc. Some where the two of you can talk but have fun at same time.

OK so we've been writing emails back and forth and he writes paragraphs normally. Well I wrote him one and I slipped in that I like him but kept the rest of it casual.

But he only responded with one sentence. He was laughing about a joke I made. That was it.

Did I blow it?

What exactly did you say? What did he say?

Hm. Maybe he doesn't know how to respond? I think just the fact he responded was a good thing: if he didn't like you at all, I think he would've left you hanging and never answered.

And, he thinks you're funny. So, you've got that going for you.

What exactly did you say? What did he say?

He told me that my name isn't wendy so he won't ever say anything in a angry tone to me. I said he was right and that the only wendy I might resemble is the one that sells the hamburgers. The one related to the fat guy.


He said... lol... fat guy.


:/

I had also said... I hang out with you because I like you... and finished the sentence with normally.

I feel stupid.

He likes you say take it as a compliment, and see what happens. What's the hurry?

To me it sounds like he enjoys your company but I wouldn't read too much into it because he could mean anything from I'd like to get to know you better to just friends to maybe we could get a relationship going.

I don't know if he likes me that's why I'm asking to see if maybe its going in the right direction. No hurry I just want to know.

Your right...

i feel stupid.

Aw, Sweetie. Don't feel stupid. We've all been there. But don't feel stupid yet! He answered, right?

Just because you feel stupid doesn't mean he's not interested in you! I agree with talaniman; just wait a little bit and see what happens. I know you want to know RIGHT NOW (I'm in the same position; I want to make sure a guy likes me, too!) but let's be patient, okay?

If someone is telling you they greatly appreciate your company, I think you're getting somewhere! Especially if it's a guy! Just wait it out a little; you'll know soon enough! :)

Good luck.

Seems to me like he is trying to respect boundaries an take things slow but there is the possibility of a next level... kind of depends also did he enjoy your company talking at his desk at work or at the library all depends on the setting... good luck

Yes it mean he likes you and wants to spend more time with you

I don't mind taking things slow... slows good. Why does the setting matter? What's the difference between work or the library or the movies?

^_^ I hope he asks me to hang out again soon!

I tried talking to him on messenger today. He didn't respond. I'm invisible when I sign into messenger, so whenever I went from 'available' to 'offline,' I noticed he automatically got offline, too.


I talked to him on the phone the day after I wrote I like him because of the movies and friends were going... he couldn't go but told me to call next time I'm available. I asked him to call me and he said okay that's fine.


I feel like I messed up and he's avoiding me!! :/

He might be shy and not know what to do once you told him you like him and trying to figure out the best way to ask you out. Or, he might not like you. It's very hard to say, especially since he seemed to be interested. Men can be confusing creatures sometimes.

I think the best thing you can do right now is just give him space. Don't try to talk to him for a few days, and see what happens. If he starts talking to you first, I think this is a good sign. If he doesn't... then I think you have your answer. Don't panic just yet, okay? He just might be busy...

Well I didn't follow your advice I wrote him on messenger again and he wasn't answering so I kept typing stuff. I guess I knew I was being stupid but I kept going. After a while he answered and said he didn't hear the alert and told me what I typed was like reading a book. He then said, 'my bad girl!'

What does that mean I know he was saying it in a playful way but he said MY bad girl so does that mean he still likes me or something? I joked with him saying I thought he was ignoring me but he said 'nah I wouldn't ignore you' and invited me to watch movies with his friends and some of my friends on Saturday night.


I don't feel as stupid as I did but that whole 'my bad girl' thang has really made me curious!!

Then what are you worried about? He told you he wouldn't ignore you, he invited you to watch some movies, and he called you his "bad girl." Sounds like a win-win to me. I don't know exactly what he meant by "my bad girl," but it can't be NEGATIVE, now can it? Don't analyze EVERY SINGLE THING he says. You'll just start to feel self-conscious and insecure. I am guilty of this overanalyzing stuff, and it's a bad habit to break. Why not start now and just enjoy the ride? :)
