Why is it hard to know if you want a mans attention?

maybe some things have happened it your past that make u feel u are not worthy of being happy and giving a guy a chance, you probably havent met the guy that you want to fully be with...it's a click that you feel almost immediately...keep being honest & kind....the right guy will come along and you DO deserve him......

could be:\na. Trying to hard\nb.  Standards too high\nc.  oblivious to your surroundings ( i.e. dont notice the guy who likes you)\n\nChances are there are plenty of potential prospects, but you are making it difficult on yourself by comitting one of the above...\ntake a look around..

Honestly men are divided even amongst themselves on this matter. For example, many are out for the one night stand... they are very easy to spot by BOTH sexes. Then there are the "I'm not sure I want a relation" guy who teases and then when it comes to the moment of truth, they flake. Then there are the type that just loves YOU... the feeling that you give when you talk seriously, when you smile.... and this is a killer... being you and standing for what you believe... being a woman. Of course we men are programmed to go wherever the opportunity is... but trust me when I write that there is a small percentage of us who dream and wish for a real woman to come our way and be our life partner.

you can tell from body language mainly, like if his body is facing u even tho ur not talkin, side glances at u, alot smiling. normally theres alot of suggestive body language that tells u. he might try to impress u, by subconiously posing in a mascline way, by either strutin or making out there strong, or possiably showin off to get ur attention, be it play fightin with a mate or summit.

Asking is sometimes nice but to have a man read my body language is excellent.... Woman are so obvious sometimes.. Our body language and conversation and facial expressions can tell you exactlly what we want... You just have to be able to read and listen for the signs...

Tough one to give a accurate answer too.. But if he likes you, normally this is some clue or sign in his actions.. Some guys.. but very few are capible of hiding their attractions towards woman.. Some guys consider it "keeping hard" if they make the woman give in first..(I've never understood this guys and they can be considered jerks).. But if a guy really likes you, he will let you know.. There won't be any guess work.. See if he looks at you while your not looking at him, and does he smile when you catch him (this does not included getting checked out). i think the easiest way is to simply ask him, Don't be blunt, but be sweet about it.. and if he runs from you.. then its safe to say he didn't really like you for the right reasons.

I think even though you didnt think he was noticing you he was. He noticed the extra attention you were giving him whether you meant to or not. And now that you are not doing it he wants to know why but will not come out and ask.\nIt may mean he is interested...or it may mean that he just wants the attention. I mean attention in all forms feels good right?

Unfortunatly that happens quite frequently.At first men do everything in their power to attract you and to make sure you notice them. They treat you like a queen etc. Then as soon as they know that you are theirs and ain't goin' nowhere, they stop trying. What to do in this situation, is to show him, that you are still desirable to others and if you wished you could have any man you want, and you won't hesitate to trade you b/f! Perhaps that will scare him into showing you more attention, and make him work to keep you!

The best way is to be yourself and not try too hard. \n\nIf it's a specific person who's attention you are trying to get, let him know. But don't make it all about you and how you feel. What is it you like about him? What are his good qualities? Tell him what they are and what you like about him. That will definately get his attention. Then go on to tell him what his good qualities do for you, or how he makes you feel. Boost his ego and make him feel like the man and he'll be yours ;)

In my opinion, there are 2 reasons men are hesitant to approach a woman.\nA. The women are with a group of close friends. This would mean If the guy gets rejected, there will be a large audience to watch the whole thing.\nB. The woman is beautiful. Men think this woman can have anyone she wants, why would she care for me?

Certain gestures and postures make it quite clear your attracted.  Unfortunately, a lot of guys aren't sure that you're transmitting the message that, somewhere inside, they know you are.  Without words, it might take some extra time around that guy with slightly exaggerated gestures, and a good level of confidence in yourself.

Doesn't mean anything. He may not like you, and not want to hurt your feelings. He may be crazy about you, and not want to be hurt. The male ego is pretty fragile, sometimes we figure it's better to not act, than risk being rejected.

It may sound strange, but it's just his way of flirting with you.  Maybe he doesn't know any other way to show you, but he's definitely giving you attention.  He likes you! :)

Stop looking. The man you want will show interest in you first.

Guys (People) tend to tell you things they think you want to hear.. I believe usually in cases like you described he was only after one thing.. and when he didn't get it he lost interest or didn't think it was worth the effort.. in any case he's not worth the effort, be happy you don't hear from him anymore.

What we don't know doesn't hurt us, or get us mad for that matter. If we know, then it all depends on how we are. Some of us will probably get offended or something and some will probably like it because it's like getting extra attention. I personally wouldn't mind knowing if a guy fantasized about me. I think I'd rather know than not.
