We were set up on a blind date by a good friend of mine that was my dance teacher and YW leader. He told her that he had a great time and that he thought I had a really cool personality and that I was fun. She told me he was even going to call and ask me on another date. I still haven't recieved that call. Once school started again in january We have been busy but he came to play dodgeball with my friends and I once. Another time I went country dancing with my friends and he was there and asked me to dance. I see him @ school atleast once a week. Every week it is different sometimes he seems happy to see me and will sit and talk to me otheres he will be like oh hey and keep walking. We have tried to hangout a few times and somehow it just always falls through. the lady that set us up tells me he says he is going to call me still. I'm so confused. I understand he is busy and i am too we both have hard classes that we study for ALOT!

Honestly, if he REALLY likes you, he will make a better attempt to contact you.

How about, \nI was just wondering what you are doing later, or if you have a class with her say, do you understand what is going on in...insert subject here.  Or you can try the old, my God you are the most beatiful girl here, could I take you out sometime...good luck, let me know how it goes, The 8 ball has a good feeling about this!!!

It sounds like he may like her. Probably he is trying to show you that he has options and that other girls can take an interest in him as you once did. Pride is something people have a hard time letting go of. Indifference on your part could lead him to believe that he can continue to act this way. Mention to him that you'd be really upset if he dated your friend. Also acknowledge to him that he has many options outside your social circle and that you'd feel more comfortable if he looked elsewhere for dates.

My rule of thumb, is never to date anyone that works with you, unless they are in a different dept., or you don't see them during your everday.  Because if it doesn't workout it can backfire.  I think the time frame for being in the friend category is anything past 3 flirting sessions.  Then I would wonder does this guys have b.alls enough to ask me out?  I guess not, then I would move on and just be friendly with you.  I hope it works out for you, step it up a notch.  Don't worry if she says no, there are many other girls.

Well, the worse that could happen is he won't want to take that step.  Maybe he won't be ready and will want more time, maybe he is afraid he might not do things right and that he'll disappoint you, maybe he has been rejected before and is hesitant to make a move becuase he thinks it will happen again..........The point here is, you'll never know what really is going on until you try!

I had a friend of mine that we played that game for years. Nothing ever came out of it because we were too good of friends and I did not want to lose her friendship.  There were times she would flirt and even one time where she told me if she likes a guy they are paying at the movies and she had me pay the next day.You need to talk through it with him, it sounds like he is really unsure of himself and just as confused as you are.  I think he is waiting for the green light from you that says where you stand.

Once upon a time a girl that I hung out with told me she had a friend who saw me a lot and thought she might like me, and wanted to know what I liked in a girl to see if she might want to ask me out. I told her that I liked a girl who would talk to me, so that we could both get to know each other a little first before thinking about whether or not we should go out. \n\nSo my advice is to just talk to him and see how he responds to being around you. Since he's in most of your classes then you have plenty of opportunity and excuse to talk to him about things.\n\nEdit: Concerning your additional details.\n\nIf I had to make an educated guess from what you wrote I would say that he does like you and would like to spend some time with you outside of school. You paint him as being smart enough on his own, so he isn't trying to be near you so that he can use you to get good grades. And he is trying to point out things you have in common, like the answers, to show that you two are compatable.

If you were still working in the school, it might be best to approach him slowly, as a rapid approach does carry some added risk of rejection.  However, under the circumstances, a subtle approach simply isn't an option.  Do it or don't do it.\n\nDoes he know you by name?  If you were to call him, how difficult would it be for him to know who you are?\n\nHere's an idea, if you want to be just a little on the sneaky side.  Call him up on the weekend, and ask if he has a few minutes to meet with you.  A coffee shop or pancake house might be a good place to arrange a meeting.\n\nIf he asks for a reason, tell him you may have lost something in his classroom, perhaps a piece of jewelry, and you're wondering if he may have found it.\n\nAt this point, he has two choices.  He can assure you that he hasn't seen it, or he can agree that it would be a good idea for the two of you to get together to discuss the matter.

I think that might be his way of testing the waters with you, I had a guy friend do the same thing with me "I want to meet someone like you" You have to ask yourself if you would want to persue something with him or not, from the way it sounds not. \n\nThis is one of those time when subtle wont work I think you just need to come out and ask him if he is hinting that he wants more. Just tell him you have been getting a different vibe from him lately and you want to know.

hi yamini, just remember one thing always be with a person who loves you and not the other way round . as you said you go to tuitions that means that you are still studying. first pay attention on your studies if he is the one made for you it will happen soon . You can ask him to be your friend first so you know him .

Maybe you are that ONE person that makes him feel differently.  Or he just didnt want to dance wrong for you SO BADLY that it made him stiff.  It happens, and I bet if you dance with him again and he is more comfortable with you, it will get better.  He probably just wanted to impress you and make sure he didnt scare you off be being too forward with you.\n\n=D

baby girl, he has his group of friends to deal with @ school. and i'm sure that he also has some else in mind there too. rumors will spread like a wild fire, if someone were to tell that he's talking to you. play this one with caution baby girl. sounds like a player to me.

thats extremely strange behavior for just being freindly. He probably like you, but doesnt want to do anything wrong, since he is older and is a teacher and all. Reminds me bit of a prevert.

You are in a difficult position as you are their instructor. You cant get included unless you form a casual relationship of friendship first, by chatting etc. As you build up trust, then you can mention that you are interested in going along to join their activities, or even ask what activities you could get into from them. Maybe better for you to look outside of the school, join social activities like evening classes. Less complications with relationships with "students " etc.

if the guy likes you at all then he will "steal" glances at you.  if you catch him lookin, ask him how his day is going.  this game that girls and guys play is sorta messed up , but so is life.  i like this girl at school, and i've been afraid to introduce myself to her for the past year.  until last week, we started talking about mussolini in the hall way.  she's smart, and cute.  but i'm still afraid to ask her out because we are both going to school.  school should not be the dating game.  but to answer your question: if a girl came up to me and challanged me to a game of paintball, i would be 99.999% likely to say "your on".  just be careful, and let the brain in your cranium do your thinking.

Tell him that you just want to be friends. That he could ask someone else to the dance. Or you could get someone else to go with you and tell him u done have a date.
