Ok so there's this guy who I really like, and he works at the stable where I ride my horse. He talks to me on Facebook and used to say I'm hot, and call me babes. He even asked me to come to his football game once at my school.
When we see each other in person though, he stares at the ground. He smiles at me sometimes, and occasionally says hi, but most of the time he just stares. He'll look at me for a long time like he doesn't want to look away and he'll smile, but I have no clue what to do.
Does he actually like me, or what? Cause he told his cousin that he liked this other girl, and the girl likes him too. He keeps smiling at me, and will randomly talk to me online and ask about how I am, but in my mind, I know he likes another girl. Why is he doing this and does he actually like me? :\

He seems to act really forward on faebook but can't handle being that forward in person.
I mean, it does sound like he likes you so maybe he gets shy around you. Give it time and see what happens.

Sounds like the type of guy that says the same thing to every other girl he finds a little bit attractive. Why settle with this one when you can find one that isn't socially awkward? I find I like guys that I can talk to.

Hi, emily57!

He might just be shy in person. However, please realize that people can basically be anyone that want to be online. How they are in person, face-to-face is what really counts in the end. Using the online social networks has made it a lot easier for some people to feed their egos by seeing how many people they can get to "like" themselves.

Thanks!

Get to know him better on Facebook. Eventually he will feel more comfortable around you. If he is liking another girl maybe he isn't ready for a girlfriend anyway. Try and find out what he likes about girls. Keep it general without making it sound pushy.

Dats me in a nutshell,

I can talk to girls grand on msn, Facebook etc. but when it comes to being around them I'm all shy if its someone I like... take it 4rm me, you try break the awkwardness its what we need :)

Seems like he may like you, but he is shy... I think on Facebook next time, you should chat about things you two have in common (not how he feels about your appearance, etc.) and sort of make sure it doesn't end so when you see him in person you can talk to him about where you left off, sooner or later he'll open up and probably forget about this girl he's probbly just crushing on. (DO NOT CREATE AN ONLINE RELATIONSHIP by the way) good luck!

Hi, Mikeym!

I can agree that some initiative could be good by the woman concerning breaking down the awkwardness of approaching someone in person. Also, just a nudge for you here - it's better to not use chat speak on this site if you really want to be understood, especially since this site operates on an international basis.

I wish only the best for you!

Thanks!

Hi:)
Hey might like you and also the other girl. He could be shy , but also a player . And maybe all he wants is too have many options just in case. So Id just bcame really good frinds with him try to find out,and also , if you are planing on dating him , the first thing you got to do is have him as a friend first , it'll make things wayyy more easy than to total strangers. Maybe he's ain't a player but you can't be sure of that yet, But what ever happens don't fall for him until he falls for you . Cause he
Might be just fooling around.
Xx

I wish everything turns out just fine :)

It sounds like he liks you. Give it time and he will be able to talk to you in person and not feel so shy around you. Sounds just like the guy I like. Wish you luck.

I tottally agree with mikeym , maybe he's just scared of making the first move. And you have no reason to think hie friend is lying right? If you like him go for it , I mean , ull end up regreating it more if you never try than if you do and get hurt (:

Love the BTWz Emily57!

On a more serious note, he sounds like a rapist and you should probably think about getting a restraining order.

Think of him as Hannibbal Lecter, neglected as a child so he is incapable of talking to you in person. BEWARE!! Men like this have a tendency of trying to ****INGEATYOURBRAINSWITHASPOON.

Sincerely yours.

Like camp Suzzie Lou. (AKA Biff Johnson.)

I am a guy and we like when your open with us so if you like him become friends then admit your feelings if he doesn't do so first
