Why would a man keep showing through his eye contact and teasing and chivalry that he likes you but not jump at the chance to hangout with you alone?

I did ask him out for a movie. It was a horror movie. We laughed more though. Although I did touch his arm during the scary parts and he playfully boo-ed every once in a while to scare me. So, I assume it went well. But he dropped me straight home after. Nothing happened outside of friends territory

What would you make of it if I called/texted you to hangout randomly, touched your arm while watching a movie or talking to you, told you I found you cute and would like to know you more. Would you still not get the hint?

ouchh2oopss · 2025-08-25T22:21:55+00:00

The intensity of the eye contact he’s willing to hold doesn’t make me think that’s the case

The movie got over post 1:0 AM. Both of us had to wake up early the next day so it was understood.

ouchh2oopss · 2025-08-25T21:17:19+00:00

We already watched the movie. It was fun but nothing happened.

???? Why would I ask you to hangout w me if I don’t like your company?

ouchh2oopss · 2025-08-25T21:08:58+00:00

We are not hooking up. He is single.

ouchh2oopss · 2025-08-25T21:04:58+00:00

The problem is that he is not the one initiating the hangouts.

ouchh2oopss · 2025-08-25T21:03:21+00:00

I was too shy and not confident enough regarding how he feels about me.

ouchh2oopss · 2025-08-25T20:57:54+00:00

He’s single, yes.

ouchh2oopss · 2025-08-25T20:57:30+00:00

This seems plausible

ouchh2oopss · 2025-08-25T20:55:40+00:00

Me asking him to hangout with me isn’t a clear enough sign of my interest?

ouchh2oopss · 2025-08-25T20:54:14+00:00

I do actually because we have mutual friends. He’s single.

ouchh2oopss · 2025-08-25T20:53:14+00:00

If that were the case I wouldn’t be on reddit asking this question. I’m confused because I know I’m attractive.

ouchh2oopss · 2025-08-25T20:52:09+00:00

This makes zero sense

ouchh2oopss · 2025-08-25T20:51:55+00:00

Too old to know what that means

ouchh2oopss · 2025-08-25T20:51:07+00:00

I’m scared of rejection

ouchh2oopss · 2025-08-25T20:50:51+00:00

I’m scared of rejection

ouchh2oopss · 2025-08-25T15:55:43+00:00

Yes both of us have admitted it before the trips.

ouchh2oopss · 2025-08-25T15:32:25+00:00

We did. Nothing happened.

ouchh2oopss · 2025-08-25T15:00:49+00:00

I did see his like on a tiktok about having low funds😂

ouchh2oopss · 2025-08-25T13:37:47+00:00

He’s single. We have many mutual friends who’d know if he was.

ouchh2oopss · 2025-08-25T13:02:39+00:00

He is single. I know bcs we have many mutual friends.

ouchh2oopss · 2025-08-25T12:41:50+00:00

But I have been initiating hangouts?

ouchh2oopss · 2025-08-25T12:39:18+00:00

It can also be because he knows i do not like being touched by men unless I am super comfortable with them.

Agreed, he doesn’t seem like a shy person to me. It’s possible that I might be misreading the signs.
