If you heard through the grapevine that a man was interested in you, would you become aloof around him? Would this mean you were completely uninterested or completely shy/nervous?

I WANT ANSWERS!

I think it depends on how interested she may or may not be ... if she's been checking you out for months and has it pretty bad, she might be scared !@#$-less! On the other hand, she could have a boyfriend and doesn't want to lead you on.

Now, I have a question for you: why don't you just remove all doubt and ask her out already???? You can find out the answer to this puzzling question of yours and move on. Whether, that be move on to someone else or, delve into an exciting new relationship.

I'm pretty much with Shy...if I heard that he was interested in me, and I wasn't, then I would probably be less friendly with him so as not to lead him on. If I *were* interested though, I'd be acting especially friendly and receptive towards him...at least for a while (I might get frustrated if he failed to ask me out and stop being friendly--giving up, in other words).

Which is exactly what Iri was saying- we're each different, and trying to figure out one woman that you are interested in based on what some women here say won't really work.

That's because whatever it is that she's doing normally is making him like her, so changing that might make him not like her, then she wouldn't have to reject him because he'd change his mind.
