There is this guy that I have know for years. We are probably more acquaintances than friends. We have the same circle of friends, and once a year we see each other. Last year when he came, I saw him. I was standing near this room close to the entrance. The front door opens, and I looked up. Our eyes meet (lock), I broke that lock quickly by turning my head (I didn't want it to be too obvious that I like him), then acted like I didn't see him, went into the small room near the entrance and just sat there to see what he would do. He comes into the room I was in with this smile on his face, says hello, and gives me this huge hug. This hug was a lot different to the ones we had given each other before. He said he'd call so all of us could get together, but he never did. He came down this year, he ran into my parents and told them he would call but he never did. I can't seem to stop thinking about him. I'm not doing it on purpose, thoughts just pop into my head, and I can see his face in my head just smiling at me. Sometimes, I'm just sitting there watching tv or reading, and a smile will come to my face. I just wish there was a sure way of knowing if he feels the same way, or it's all in my head and I should forget about him.

Hello, cancergirl3 and WELCOME TO LINDALAND!!!

I don't know what to say regarding your question. But to be honest, I think you deserve someone who keeps his promises and if he promises to call, he does.. Hopefully when you'll meet again, things will become clearer.

Wishing you best of luck!

I think you should stop pretending like you don't like a guy when you really like a guy and want him to come closer. I have read and experienced that "men don't take hints" and that things can't be as subtle as they are with females who embrace their emotional intuition. He might really like you but feel like you don't even notice him and are cold towards him.

Let him know in an obvious way and then step back and let him make a move towards you if he is interested too. If he doesn't, just keep being kind and spend time around him if it pleases you and keep your eyes open for men who show their interest in you. Either things will progress with this man or things will progress with another who may be more suitable. Just keep being yourself and be honest and receptive.

IMO, when a man is into you, then he will show interest. It's not necessarily about pursuing you flat out assertively, but rather keeping the promises or trying to keep in touch with you. So with what I could picture from your post, he just seems friendly, but when it comes to interest it doesn't show much. Anyone can pretty much say "I'll call later or next time or whatever", that's just a social friendly thing that can be said during small talks anyways, but you know that they do care when they actually call.
