Would a guy ignore a girl just to get more attention from her?

Question

There's this guy at work I was seeing. We've never worked together but just a few times. He's apparently had a crush on me for a few months now but hasn't really done anything about it. The ice broke when he sent me a text saying, "I think you're the most beautiful girl" and he happened to be drunk. He's not a guy who wears his heart on his sleeve either so it was nice to hear the truth. Fr then on, it was good. He would not stop smiling if he were to see me at work, he would call me right after he got off work to talk to me, he asked me to eat out w. him and his friends for lunch; i'd bring him coffee for work every now and then. once he took pictures of me fr. across the table during lunch. I asked to hang out w. him one weekend but he brought me along to see his cousin at a party. I would recirpocate but never initiate. Also, we met up after he got off of work to hang out for a bit and he kissed me. One night, he asked me directly if i liked him (no games) and fr. there, he said he had plans of taking me out. We went out, had a good time and he texted me he "had fun". He's a workaholic and in a tight financial crunch (new apartment) and warned me he'd be working all the time. At the end of the date, he said the more we hang out, the more and more he likes me. Like I said, he's not one to wear his heart on his sleeve yet he's direct/honest but still a mystery.

The weekend after our date, he called me after work and we talked. I think he hinted he wanted to hang out bc he kept saying he was "bored" but never asked me and i was completely tired that night. I texted him the next day and no reponse. At work on mon, he told our mutual friend he does "all the work and she can call me too". WHAT? Why is he acting like a girl? So i texted him askin how he was and that i missed him. He asked "why" and i playfully said it was bc i wanted to kiss him. he said, "aw thats sweet. maybe you'll get one soon." From then on, NOTHING. He also stopped replying back to our mutual friend and she was UPSET. (she's alot older; like a big sister to him). He came in yesterday knowing something was up but not sure why. We ignored him and tried to talk to us. He did certain things (like throw boxes or make noise) and i think it was just to get our attention. She said he kept looking over and stealing glances at me a couples times but I NEVER looked him in the eye. We stayed for a bit after work and he asked one of our other co-workers to ask why we're mad at him. He came by a couple times and asked, "are you ignoring me?" Also, he kept giving sad puppy faces to our mutual friend/co-worker. Usually when we leave work we have to say "bye" to everyone. As I walked out the door, I didn't look back or say "bye" at all. I saw his reflection in the window and he stood there, just staring at me, waiting for my "bye".
What's w. this kid? Is he being egotistical? Did he do all that ignoring so i could give him more attention? WHY?

Answer 1

I think that he's not worth it because he's a dick if he ignored you in the first place. You can def find someone better than that ****. Obvi.

Answer 2

Maybe he feels like you should initiate things for awhile - he is being a bit immature, but a lot of guys are like that. Why don't you do the opposite and really go after him, see how he reacts? He may have ignored you like you said just to see what you would do, if you'd pay more attention to him, so I'd turn the tables - don't ignore him, go out of your way to be in his face and see what he does!

Answer 3

i'm a valuable sturdy woman and my boyfriend enjoyed me superb with the aid of fact of it. perhaps given which you're a valuable sturdy woman you in simple terms are not putting your self accessible as obtainable. adult men understand that the flirty females are a confident element, once you're slightly greater reserved they'd get chilly feet around you. Whats magnificent for you is one on one conversations with adult men which you like, that way they'd get to appreciate you and discover which you're fairly approachable and positively great. adult men hate rejection and in specific circumstances being valuable and goody is an indication that they gained't be excepted into your international.

Answer 4

he obviously likes you, so there should be no dilemma. maybe when you texted him, he was busy with his new apartment.. and also he said the last thing by saying "oh thats so sweet.." so he probably expected to keep texting him and didnt wanna be annoying sending you two texts in a row.

Guys don't play hard to get.
