ForevahAlone Posted July 27, 2015 Share Posted July 27, 2015 I'm curious; would you bother making conversation with a woman, every time you see her, if you're only interested in her potential friendship? Could the prospect of a friendship with me really be that appealing? Link to comment
notalady Posted July 27, 2015 Share Posted July 27, 2015 I'm confused by the question. Why can't you make conversation with someone, men or women, because you want to be friends? Granted I'm not a man. Link to comment
ForevahAlone Posted July 27, 2015 Author Share Posted July 27, 2015 He can and I have no problem with that. It's the things he actually says. He's almost too nice, imo, to just want to be my friend. Idk. Link to comment
mfan Posted July 27, 2015 Share Posted July 27, 2015 Love the avatar, but I don't understand the question. If I want to make friends with a woman, then of course I will talk to her, even if I want nothing more than friendship. Link to comment
Capricorn3 Posted July 27, 2015 Share Posted July 27, 2015 I don't see any reason why he shouldn't talk to you in friendship only. If he's the same age as you (45) and not a 20 year old, I don't see the problem. (Actually, I admit I'm a little confused by the question too). Link to comment
force Posted July 27, 2015 Share Posted July 27, 2015 He is probably interested in more. He would not make regular conversation with you if he wasn't, what would be the point. That is from a female perspective though Link to comment
ForevahAlone Posted July 27, 2015 Author Share Posted July 27, 2015 Why does everyone think I'm forty five? Lol. I'm 22. Link to comment
Capricorn3 Posted July 27, 2015 Share Posted July 27, 2015 Why does everyone think I'm forty five? Lol. I'm 22. Um, .. because you state you age in your profile as being 45. Link to comment
ForevahAlone Posted July 27, 2015 Author Share Posted July 27, 2015 Um, .. because you state you age in your profile as being 45. Don't know how that happened. Lol. I'm 22. Link to comment
Larkin Posted July 27, 2015 Share Posted July 27, 2015 I'm curious; would you bother making conversation with a woman, every time you see her, if you're only interested in her potential friendship? Could the prospect of a friendship with me really be that appealing? In general, if it was someone I didn't know previously, and I was attempting to make conversation every time I saw her, I'd say the interest was more than friendship. Link to comment
Capricorn3 Posted July 27, 2015 Share Posted July 27, 2015 Don't know how that happened. Lol. I'm 22. It would be a good idea to correct your age in your profile so as to avoid confusion in the future. Link to comment
notalady Posted July 27, 2015 Share Posted July 27, 2015 He can and I have no problem with that. It's the things he actually says. He's almost too nice, imo, to just want to be my friend. Idk. Lol I think more info is needed. What does he say that makes you think he wants more than friends and what makes you think he just want to be friends (as per your question). Link to comment
TMifune Posted July 27, 2015 Share Posted July 27, 2015 OP is in one of the following situations: She has a guy paying attention to her and is afraid he's interested when she doesn't want him to be. She has a guy paying attention to her and she wants it to mean he's into her but trying to convince herself he's not. OP, care to clarify? Link to comment

She has a guy paying attention to her and she wants it to mean he's into her but trying to convince herself he's not. OP, care to clarify? Idk which. Lol. He just compliments me a lot, smiles at me, etc. It's confusing to me. He's probably just a nice guy. 😬 Link to comment
notalady Posted July 27, 2015 Share Posted July 27, 2015 So you're not sure if you are interested in this guy? Link to comment
ForevahAlone Posted July 27, 2015 Author Share Posted July 27, 2015 So you're not sure if you are interested in this guy? He's cute in a nerdy way. Lol. Idk. Link to comment
TMifune Posted July 27, 2015 Share Posted July 27, 2015 He's cute in a nerdy way. Lol. Idk. OP has a guy paying attention to her and she wants him to be interested. Confirmed. Sounds like a good start! Link to comment
ForevahAlone Posted July 27, 2015 Author Share Posted July 27, 2015 OP has a guy paying attention to her and she wants him to be interested. Confirmed. Sounds like a good start! I just don't know. Sometimes I think he likes me but other times I think he just wants to be my friend. He hasn't asked me out or for my number or anything. Link to comment
notalady Posted July 27, 2015 Share Posted July 27, 2015 How long have you known each other? Link to comment
Andrina Posted July 27, 2015 Share Posted July 27, 2015 Maybe he thinks you're out of his league. Decide whether or not you want to date him. If you do, touch his arm and tell him you like his shirt. Ask him what he likes to do for fun on the weekends. Ask him if he's seen a particular movie that you want to see. Whatever he says, tell him you've been wanting to see it. Guys need some obvious clues that you'd say yes if he asked you out. They are afraid of rejection, just as a woman would be in similar situations. If he doesn't take the hint, either ask him to go for coffee, or assume he doesn't want to date you and don't worry about him anymore. Link to comment

Could the prospect of a friendship with me really be that appealing? The answer is no. But then again I have no friends. Link to comment
j.man Posted July 27, 2015 Share Posted July 27, 2015 Depends. If she's a coworker or classmate, I might talk to her regularly without trying to get more out of it. In purely social situations? There's no way I'm routinely seeking a woman out to talk to her if I'm not interested in more. Link to comment
ForevahAlone Posted July 27, 2015 Author Share Posted July 27, 2015 How long have you known each other? I've known him for a few months. Link to comment
notalady Posted July 27, 2015 Share Posted July 27, 2015 I've known him for a few months. And in what context does he strike up a conversation with you, are you colleagues or school mates or something? Link to comment
Helpexpressme Posted July 27, 2015 Share Posted July 27, 2015 Are you upset he's not asking you out? What do you want from him. Link to comment
