[@Being.Homo.Sapien]

​@@ektaaasar Ditch them. They are not the one. On-off is not the good sign according to me. The one who is really interested will make you his priority. On-off guys are confused about you.

[@krish68]

Who told you that ?? 🤣🤣 ... That's so stupid and not at all true ... There are so many reasons behind why a guy wouldn't ask a girl out even if he likes her .

[@YM-wj2dr]

And avoid a guy or girl who says they're in a relationship but it's not working out. The relationship could be just fine but they want a chance with you too. Usually if a person will cheat to see you, he or she may later cheat on you too.

[@SaveTheMessenger]

Great point. I agree.

[@estherdistefano6997]

What about when a guy is a player they will do all that, Until they let their guard down ,And you catch them.

[@buzzbozkarma]

Usually true; I have come across this where the person is actually in an emotionally abusive relationship and crying out for help (in either case theyre still not in a good place to date so good advice)

[@crazymelomanka]

not necessarily. there are different situations in life. sometimes this is when one meets a true love instead of the one that only seemed real.

[@searain1573]

Romantic love is not special at all. However, platonic love is special. Platonic love is one of the strongest types of love, while romantic love is one of the weakest types of love. When a guy and a girl are best friends, they won't date or be in a romantic relationship with each other since they know it wouldn't work since they are too close. That proves that romantic love is inferior to platonic love. The best feeling for many girls is being able to have platonic guy friends that are like brothers to them. Most girls prefer having platonic guy friends over a boyfriend/husband. Many girls would choose their platonic male best friend over their boyfriend/husband and give more importance to them. Most girls seem to be more comfortable being around their platonic male best friends than they are being around their boyfriends/husbands. People are closer to their platonic best friends than they are to their romantic partner. People usually love their platonic best friend more than their romantic partner. Platonic love is actually real, while romantic love is fake. Romantic relationships are actually a downgrade compared to platonic relationships.

[@MavisSakala-i9s]

I think the reason why women say that he's just being nice is because they don't want to assume what they don't know and I think they don't want to be hurt cause if you believe someone likes you but that person doesn't it hurts more

[@mirablejo7858]

Nope not true. I was entirely clueless before my husband’s friends told me to open my eyes that he’s in love with me. I was like… huh? I thought we’re just friends. 🤷🏻‍♀️ Only after our wedding he showed the actual romantic side he had held back due to not wanting to pressure me. I had to make the move on him, because he was shy and super respectful. I had NO IDEA how hard it had been for him to hold himself back due to fear of crossing the line and losing me. And my now ex husband is not only one I know who has done this. Both men and women might hide their true feelings afraid of rejection. It’s more common than being honest and open. In my experience I have actually been pretty often the one to confess first and being afraid of rejection just to get the response of finally. Because I took many times the way guys treated me just friendliness I completely missed the fact they had romantic interest hidden behind it.

[@francefradetjardineslacora8114]

Romantic vibes: his eyes twinkle when he looks at you. It's a no-brainer. It's the twinkly eyes. That and touching your arms or shoulder. Literally not being able to keep his hands off you. Not rude touching, just wanting to put his hand on your arm or around your shoulders. It's so obvious really. The electricity in the air.

Man did this with me but I think he was a narcissist so I'm not really sure he truly liked me.

I've been noticing both lately....twinkly eyes and he put his hand on my back. Definitely eyes meet more lately. Then...We both get nervous. Electricity in the air describes it well. I feel like it will be months before things progress at this rate lol. But I've been through this before and I learn to enjoy the ride.

[@francefradetjardineslacora8114]

@@MWroses If a man is decent he will ask you if you would like to go for a coffee/ sandwich. He won't string you along. But shy respectful men sometimes need a little encouragement. As a decent woman you need to give signals that you are open to an invitation. Leave the way open to dialogue. It's a lost art. You have to be clever. A third party encouraged my husband to ask me out for a drink. He would still be smiling and blushing and stuttering otherwise. 🙄. You can get a trusted friend to find out what he is saying about you. Old -fashioned bush telegraph. Far more dignified then clomping up to him and asking him out. Here in Spain it's normal to find out about a person's character first. My boss suggested to my husband to go ahead and ask me out, I was a good person... Good luck.

[@MWroses]

@@francefradetjardineslacora8114 I love Spain and hope to go back someday. Beautiful country and people. I'll take this as a sign. And coincidentally, I think my boss would encourage him, also, so maybe I'll have the same luck! I have been subtly letting him know I am receptive. Time will tell. We have enjoyed getting to know each other and are becoming more comfortable together. I think the nervous jitters are starting to improve so I expect things to progress soon if they are going to at all. Thank you for your words. Oh and he is a really good man. I can't believe he is single. But maybe he thinks the same about me. We are both good people and that is not common today....it's a beautiful thing when two good people find each other. Because he seems to like me, I think he's being careful not to make a mistake.

There’s a guy I’m very interested in and I’ve know him for a while now. I think he is interested in me but I overthink everything😬. He works down the street from where I work, and he comes everyday for lunch and parks at my plaza close to my car, which makes me think a lot because why doesn’t he just stay at his work parking lot. His come walking up to my car multiple times. One time because he heard I was sick and wanted to see how I was feeling. That day he said to me that if I ever needed anything to please let him know since he works very close to where I do so we exchanged numbers. Later that day he texted me and said the same thing, that if I ever needed anything to not hesitate in calling or texting him, that he could help me with whatever he could. Later another time, same thing, he came to my plaza for lunch and I was in my car. It started raining alottt and he texted me if I needed an umbrella because he had an extra one. Then he told me to be careful because it was flooded and that I could fall. We’ve hanged out before with his sister as well. And when we are hanging out he is already making plans for another hang out. His family paints him like a very serious and shy guy but when he’s with me. He is very far from that. He is always laughing and joking and teasing me and talks loud. He is very caring. And I don’t know I just see something different in his eyes, that I don’t see with anyone else.

It's interesting how effective these steps will be at dissuading narcissists, too. Narcissists tell you they are interested but their body language doesn't show that interest. They don't ask about your feelings. They don't give solid eye contact.

[@SaveTheMessenger]

I really appreciate your valuable insight, thank you!

[@cup_o_TMarie]

And some people (women too) will like you just enough to entertain them & validate themselves but not enough to see you as a potential serious girlfriend. What they do is something in between all of this. They may come around, show interest just beyond the superficial, call & text often & want to see you. This is when you must hold onto your values, standards & and vision of the kind of relationship you want if it’s serious especially. We should tell people that’s what we are looking for & we want someone who is intentional as well. You’re not asking him specifically to give it to you, simply showing that you’re confident & clear about what you want. Then if he doesn’t start showing that, he’s showing you what he is capable of with you & you can kindly move on before it becomes a mess & you get attached. In this way you’ll maintain your dignity & personal power. If a man wants something more with you, he’ll show & tell you. Don’t try to make things work & have endless conversations about your status with him. Keep it simple & let him come towards you or not.

[@andreamora-nq3jx]

As a gay man I have found that being nice to a woman can easily be confused with being interested. Just because I like talking to a woman, that doesn't mean I want to date her.

Yep, same here with men. People who are desperate will perceive a simple smile as flirting. 🫣😝

Thanks for showing us this. If a guy really wants you, he puts in effort not expect you to do everything, or start the conversation. We all want nice people in the world but don't mistake niceness for someone wanting you, or a weakness. The nice people are usually the people who know what they want, and are confident which is not a weakness.

Acting like a cold jerk?

[@Phaedrus-th7bi]

Ladies, if a man stays near you when the rest of the group / party moves to another room, or if he seeks an opportunity to speak with you one-on-one, it's a very good sign he wants to get to know you. And if he starts 'scanning' your body, especially your face (because you are very close), he is trying to decide if he finds you attractive. Usually the guy will be smiling [he can't help it]. If he maintains a 'poker face', he does NOT find you attractive. Many men 'talk with their eyes' before they approach you.

[@irlandaise5631]

He can smile and be taken too

[@irlandaise5631]

But if he makes eyes contact ; I had a man not looking at me a lot but he d make eye contact and I thought he could like me but taken unfortunately However if he was single I think he could have been interested. I know men who really aren’t interested , they avoid looking at my eyes when they talk to me.

[@LA-cm9uo]

A man did all this to me especially the first one. Exchanged phone numbers but hasn't asked me out

[@mehakverma7043]

So the thing is, when a guy likes you, it’s not true that he will keep eyecontact. Some men are shy and can’t keep eye contact, especially if he likes you. Some men are just respectful and know that keeping eye contact is important for everyone. What I find useful is to see whether or not his pupils are dilated. If it’s dark lighting, then they will obviously be dilated, and check again when you’re in a well lit area.

[@alphaj72]

This video helped a lot. I’m trying to find out if my guy friend has some sort of interest in me. He’s very stoic and quiet, and literally only has guy friends-he doesn’t really have any friends who are girls, except for me. Yet, whenever we’re around each other, he kind of lets go of his stoic side and becomes more sweet and affectionate. He’s not a touchy person, but whenever we sit next to each other he sits close to me and brushes his shoulder and arms next to mine. Sometimes he walks across just to say hi to me or get my attention. He sings around me, and he just brightens up whenever I’m around. My friends have noticed how he acts differently around me too, but I’m type of gal who has low expectations in a lot of things, lol. I can’t base off how he treats other girls because he really doesn’t talk to any other girl. He always comes up to me and asks me how I’m doing and sometimes pats me on the shoulder or back for comfort-and he’s not an affectionate person at all. He’s always helpful to me and engaged with me when talking, but I don’t want to mistake this for him being a friend. Any ideas? I like him and would be interested, but I just don’t want to misread these interactions with him. I do plan on telling him my feelings eventually but I’m kind of waiting…

[@costasichaelrokkoudes938]

Personally I like to joke and create a good atmosphere with people around me. This doesn’t mean that I’m flirting with a girl for example. It’s just that some people think that whoever is in a good mood he is flirting with them. It’s a matter of different characters. It’s always better to wait some time After a few meetings you will know for sure if a guy is flirting with you. Learn to be patient and don’t rush into anything. After all as people say: « Easy come easy go »

When a man (or a woman) is interested, you just know. If you reciprocate, things get really exciting. But if you don't, it's just plain distressing. The other person is clearly very interested, but all the while, you're trying really hard to figure out a gentle way to turn them down.

[@mirablejo7858]

Haha you definitely don’t know. I’ve got so many confessions from people who thought I was interested in them simply, because I care and nurture everyone. It’s very hard to know how people actually feel just from their actions. In my case. When I actually like someone I treat them worse than when I don’t. I don’t flirt, I’m quite rude and annoyed. Because I don’t like the way they make me feel so weak in the knees and my heart explode from my chest. For me a clear sign of no interest is the friendly approach.

Passive aggressiveness 8. Fear of rejection/abandonment How tragic is it that we are terrified to be noticed, but dying to be seen? * Here's a few tips: 1. Change boundaries ONLY based on observable behavior, not based on your feelings, or on their wants 2. Don't move people from one status to another, e.g., acquaintance to friend, too quickly 3. Some people start off respecting boundaries then become more manipulative over time, so continue to exercise healthy and firm and clear and honest boundaries (inside already established relationships) To the person reading this, repeat after me: Boundaries teach people how to love and care for me. It deepens intimacy and love. It's safe to set boundaries. Boundaries are about taking care of our heart, mind, body, and soul! It is about loving and cherishing and honoring and caring for ourselves. REMEMBER: Just because someone gets angry/hurt/upset/disappointed/whatever when you say 'no'... Doesn't mean you should've said 'yes'! It means they have to learn how to deal with 'no', they have to learn to self-regulate. You're saying no, IS YOUR ABSOLUTE RIGHT, and in fact, it's your obligation to yourself! * 10 "Survival Lies" You May Tell If You Have CPTSD: 1. fawn response 2. you start lying from very young to become socially included 3. story of yourself that is not actually true (you crafted it to adapt to environment) 4. lying to avoid loss 5. lying to secure resources/safety 6. lying due to shame 7. you find yourself in scenarios (due to past traumas) where it becomes easier to just tell overt lies 8. you lie after experiencing an emotional flashback 9. you lie because you don't want to have to caretake the other person's feelings 10. you lie because it feels nice to pretend to be (and therefore to feel) somewhat normal, sometimes * 4 things people with severe trauma do, without thinking: 1. Obsessing/ruminating 2, Assuming our feelings are wrong 3, Attaching to others in unhealthy ways 4. Viewing ourselves as others see us (without them knowing our back-story!) * YES, You Can Heal Childhood PTSD -- These Actions HELP: 1. Learn to emotionally regulate 2. Save your social/romantic energy ONLY for people who are available and who reciprocate 3. Get really good at ending relationships that aren't healthy/reciprocal 4. Choose friends who are working on themselves and are doing things you admire 5. Find activities/hobbies that bring you HEALTHY growth/evolution 6.

Cringy reality that most, if not all, my interactions with men are with "friendly" types. SOBERING That helps me understand why I've been single for 20 yrs. 🙏🏼

[@MWroses]

Sometimes feelings take time and grow. He might like you right away but be a little subdued until he really catches feelings. Guys are more open when they know you have good character and sometimes it takes time for them to figure that out

[@biljam972]

I must be then ugly as hell, because when I approach any man, he just grunts and goes away. Or he doesn't even acknowledge my existence.

[@abart2056]

I would like to think this works no matter what age we are. I'm 63 and I'm trying to figure out how to flirt again. I go to the gym and take good care of myself and lately, I'm seeing more older attractive men in the gym who are closer to my age. I've made eye contact with a few but I'm not quite sure how to go about letting them know I'm interested or available! Often times when a man is helping me with something and we start small talk, they'll always talk about their wife, girlfriend or someone they just met so that's a crystal clear message to me! 😊 Maybe I should lose the gym gloves? 😂

What do you think about a guy who gazes at you in a crowded place. Everyone is facing forward except for him. He's looking back at me directly into my eyes. And he was also caught by my friend looking at my body up and down.

Girlssss, If you're confused That he is interested on you or not then take this point and compare it to yourself "The guy who genuinely likes you doesn't talk about the love feelings he had on another women"Take it and Move on

[@diegosotomiranda4107]

So Many girls/women Should understand that too, they think if they talk about exes or guys that aré flirting with them Will make the guy they are dating More "interested" In them, they seem to forget that those things can make them insecure about the woman interest In them like "she wouldnt say all this so comfortable if she cared about what i feel"

[@starsea698]

Few months ago my crush asked me who is your crush? I got so nervous that i froze . Then again he asked if i have an ideal type and oh god i said some random celebrity's name . Now that i think about it i should have said , its you. 😭 i lost my chance

[@diegosotomiranda4107]

[@etherealenergy9471]

As a woman speaking here, I'm a straightforward loving person, and it irritates me when a guy thinks by just by my words, I want him to fall in love with me. I don't want a guy who is just there because I make him feel good. I feel I have to be mean in a way to see who really wants me, and not just because I have done something for them.

[@ShopgirlNY182]

I’ve been getting better and braver about starting conversations with guys / giving compliments but it usually doesn’t go far. They usually respond with an short answer and then walk away. I’m struggling with keeping their interest so I guess I’m doing something wrong or they’re just not interested. I’m going to ask them for a favor sometime, the bathroom idea is a good one and see if they’re still there when I get back from the bathroom.

[@dafnneperez9577]

[@EricScofield22]

Great video. My relationship of five years ended a month ago when the love of my life decided to move on. I loved her deeply, and I can't stop thinking about her and the memories we created together. I've done everything I can to try to bring her back, but nothing has worked. I'm feeling frustrated and can't imagine my life with anyone else. I've tried to push the thoughts away, but they keep coming back. I’m not sure why I'm sharing this here, but I really miss her and wish I could have her back.

[@KennyChensey]

I've been in a similar situation. My relationship ended about three years ago, but I couldn't let her go. I did everything I could to win her back, including seeking the help of a spiritual advisor who guided me in bringing her back into my life. We're together again now, and I can honestly say I'm enjoying every moment.

[@EricScofield22]

Really? How do i find one please?

[@swapnamishra2875]

Hiii. You're always mentioning and making videos about men, how they like or don't like a women etc, but can you please also make videos on what are the traits should a woman raise in her relationships, what must be a dating standard for women , how to become high valued , which values muzt be developed, how to become a high value woman etc. I see that many women these days including me are not skart enough to recognize and analyze who iz the right guy for them and what that guy really wants, some of women starts quarreling or shouting at their partners in their relationship while somewhere this behavior makes them toxic. So there must be a balance of kindness and self love with genuineness. There are lot of things and questions like this in my mind and I would like to learn more about this from you. I hope no one hurt or cheat their partner in their relationship. Thank you 🙏🏻

OK, how about this one? I met this guy at an event we were talking. He said I’d love to buy you. Coffee event was crazy. We never ended up getting coffee at the event. However, we started to text and FaceTime after the event we live in different states. I met his kids over FaceTime. We’ve been in very deep, vulnerable conversations, as well as lots of flirty joking, he claims he’s not attracted to him. How is that possible. He initiates the conversations. He asked follow-up questions. All of the things are there.

My coworker goes from showing interest to not showing interest. Very up and down.

[@Carmen_JC]

It's funny because there are out there some jerks that show all this things while they have a girlfriend. Long story-short: a guy in my class started to be really attentive and tried to be close to me (genuinelly asking things, close body language, physical touch, long staring...). But I saw how he acted while he didn't know I was there, and I felt something was off, so I followed that gut feeling and I set boundaries with him. Months after that, he started doing the same with a friend of mine and they seemed to have a strong connection in a very few days. And again, same pattern from him: very interested, very close to her face, physical touch around the waist or the shoulder or the knee, talked by the phone for hours... Guess what? When my friend took the courage to ask him if he would like to know her more and be something more, he said he had a girfriend :/ Bro, how in the earth are you so close to girls in that way while having a girlfriend? Can't you show a little respect? So girls out there, seek for genuine connections and start being friends only. And if you feel something doesn't feel good, it is because something, follow your feminine instincts!

[@theCatsitter878]

It happened recently to me with a guy I later found out was married. I guess some guys do it not because they actually want to cheat ( otherwise he wouldn't have told your friend he has a gf) but because they like the validation of other women liking him.

[@Diviiya]

These kinda guys are everywhere, the thing is they always wait for the opportunity to cheat, pass the time and play with feelings. Better restrict with boundaries asap when they approach us with further moves!

[@fionasearle4413]

Yes...saw all of this with my ex. Loved being validated by other women. He was looking for connections.Took me a long time to see he thinks it's acceptable and seemed he liked to keep his options open. Player.

For no. 1, what if he doesn't initiate a conversation with you, but whenever you initiate a conversation with him, he seems bubbly and interested to text you? He doesn't act so much like that in group settings, but he does initiate conversations more when he's with a group of people.

[@johnrainsman6650]

This has nothing to do with romance, but it does involve the questionable possibility of a man just being nice. The man is my half-sister's dad. I felt like he didn't really give me a lot of attention when picking up or dropping off my sister (though I was very little, so what would I remember anyway). Then I stayed over at his and his family's house with my sister for a week or two, when I was eight. Once in the summer, the other in November. I don't know if I asked if I could join my sister, but there's a pretty good chance I did, to invite myself into her family. I even wrote them a letter in 2013 because I missed them so much. Well, when I reunited the dad in 2015 for my sister's college graduation and her wedding in 2019, I felt like he was a little too interactive with me. All peppy and "I'm-a-big-fan-of-John" attitude. It was actually kind of annoying. At my sister's wedding, he commented how good the food looked in line, compared our heights when the conversation about mine came up, and fist-bumped me about some funny joke I must've made (my memory is vague). I don't know, I wonder if he was just embellishing his admiration of me. I tried to be close to him and his family and maybe he was giving me too much "fatherly" affection in response. But maybe because he felt like he had to? If that's the case, I don't want it. It's kind of like going on a pity date with someone. You just don't do that.

I've had men get really angry at when me when I've cut off these types of interactions.

[@leejoseph9587]

From my perspective if i like a girl i‘ll do the following 1 lock eyes with her and smile 2 Walk past or near her(orbiting) in the hopes she’ll strike a conversation with me 3 check her out from a distance which reduces the risk she’ll catch me doing it 4 ill try and make her jealous by laughing and joking with other girls to see her reaction. I know this one is not nice but im just seeing if she cares about me😅 5 ill play hot and cold. Again, i wouldnt make such an effort to do this if i didnt like her. im only doing this to see of it affects her. we wouldn’t care if someone was ignoring us if we didn’t like them 6 ill find a way to compliment her specifically if shes wearing a perfume or changed something about her hair

[@shines4921]

he does 4/6 of these he doesnt rlly try to make me jealous but makes it clear that hes single and doesnt rlly compliment me (hes dry and non chalant) but im unsure

[@lauryb]

0:06 Not only men find themselves in that situation. I'm also Latin American, and when I lived abroad and met people from different countries and cultures, I also had the experience of guys believing I was romantically interested when I was just being nice. So, in my case, I tend to have the problem totally opposite to the topic of this video: I naively assume a male friend is just being nice, exactly in the same way I'm nice to male friends, until some friend in common tells me "haven't you noticed he has a crush on you???". 😐

[@lama7763]

I’ve had the opposite because I have only had like 5 male friends before and 2 of them were only friends to try and date me. One was to date my friend, and 1 was because he was board and needed a smart person for answers or something (not really friends but put them on the list because it’s kinda relevant)
