If a guy is receptive to you, attractive and available in every way...except he seems indifferent to your interest in him, and acts non-chalant...how do you feel about him...
And honest answers ladies...does he become more or less appealing to you?
I'd move on. I figure he's likely used to women falling all over him and my interest doesn't matter. Eventhough I may be attracted to him, I'd back away. If he's interested in me, he's got to let me know.
They can sure be intriguing but are they leading you on so when he does want your company yu are there cause he has you hooked just enough thinking maybe there is something there?
Better to wait until he shows you in no uncertain terms.
I have read this question numerous times and still come up blank, how can he be receptive to you, while at the same time seeming indifferent and nonchalant?
Hi Doll!! Didn't notice that one...you're obviously more awake than i am...but i guess i meant he's enjoying the attention and certainly "wants you around" but indifferent in the way that he acts as if you didn't show him all that attention he'd be just as fine without it....
Then you have a power struggle. Both are supposed to want something, but then again, maybe you both ARE getting something out of it. A relationship has to go both ways though.
hey give us a break i admit i am 1 of the guys who when it comes to a woman i am slow.i always figure if someone has something to say,they should come out and say it,stop beating around the bush.
if you like someone just tell them straight out and tell him.be open and honest with him and tell him how you feel,don't play games with him or drop those hints hoping he will pick them up.
don't hope he will read between the lines.the only way you are going to know for sure,is to come out and tell him
There's always the possibility that the man might be an Aspie (Aspergers syndrome).
Aspies don't pick up on normal communications and so what you think are obvious signals could be completely oblivious to him.
I've been out with friends to pubs and other social events. When we left the place my friends would say things to me like, "That woman was all over you like a new suit, why didn't you pick her up".
The problem is that I'm just not in tune with those signals. They just don't come through. I was totally unaware that the woman was all over me like a new suit. From the woman's point of view I must have seemed indifferent and nonchalant, but in truth I just wasn't picking up on her signals (that my friends were obviously picking up on clearly).
You have to hit an Aspie on the head with a brick if you want to get his attention. It doesn’t mean that he's not interested, it just means that he doesn't understand the communication. Aspies just aren't capable of picking up on those things. And Aspies are a lot more common than people realize.
Either that, or he's a normal guy and just not interested I guess.
If he is an Aspie, you really need to spell it out for him. It's just the only way to communicate with him until you get to know him better. And even then you may find that you need to actually spell things out a lot. It's kind of like dating Spock.
"What makes the desert beautiful is that somewhere it hides a well." got that quote from looking up "Aspergers syndrome" and thank you Abra cause I like that quote.
I think many reasons can bring about the "indifferent/ nonchalant " appearance.. some good and some bad. Caution is one reason, perception of how you are acting could be different than yours. Reacting to quickly is also a possible reason. Ladies this is 2006, this mating ritual or whatever "name" is most current, the rules and conditions have changed... Do I want to respond to every "pass" or innuendo or batting the eyelashes or flashing the pearly whites???? yeah right... just put the collar on my neck and feed me scraps rest of the nite.....NOT that which is acquired easy is seldom rarely cherished or valved.... You are being hit on and acting indifferent...could it possibly mean you have someone else in mind and instead of being rude "ignore him...He'll go away" or her whichever the case may be.
just an opinion
Again Thanks Abra I like that quote and never heard it described that way.
