He just sounds like a flaky guy. Don't let him put you off showing interest in the good guys - they'll all be flattered to find out that you like them.

those who say you will definitely know if a man is interested--that he will ask you out, are right.


Unless I was just dumb enough to think i WAS getting the signals. Boy am i embarassed for hinting that i was interested!
hmmmm.... This sounds like it was written by a troll... but I'll bite in case I'm wrong. Why would you feel embarrassed or dumb? First of all, there is nothing wrong with you expressing your interest even if he hasn't. Plant the seed!

Hi all and thanks for all your answers.


I really liked this guy i've been talking about. once during a sporting group thing he told me i needed a good massage and a nice glass of wine. he seemed to be paying attention to me too. we had occasion to email about non dating things and he always answered and told me to keep in touch. he even offered to come see me practice.

the internets is your friend http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Internet_troll

The poster wasn't being insulting. They just thought you were posting to get a rise out of people.

I don't think there is anything wrong with letting a guy know you are interested inhim. Any relationship worth having is worth the risk. If you picked up on his flirt, then so be it. You shouldn't feel dumb since he threw out the bait. And if you asked him out for coffee so what?? It's not like you were offering him a diamond ring...Don't worry there are many other fish in the sea..just be confident and keep it moving...You didn't do anything wrong..

Andrea12345 certainly has all the earmarks of a troll. A completely blank Advice profile. Troll was not the first thing that came to my mind though, I thought she must be a guy.


However, your advice was right on. If she or any other of the girls is interested in a guy show it and be direct. We guys aren't so good with subtle hints.

A troll has nothing to do with looks. A troll is a poster who posts or starts threads with the sole intention of starting controversy and battles. They will keep posting within a thread they started in an antaganistic way to keep things stirred up.


The earmark of a troll will be a completely blank profile.

what is controversial about asking if i completely misread the actions of some guy I like and whether he would ask me out if truly interested. i don't see any controversy over that except in my own personal life.
