A shy 19-year-old girl and a shy 20-year-old guy have liked each other for about 9 months. There is lots of staring on the guy's part, locking eyes from across the room, but he hasn't made a move all this time. When I try to ask him for help on school-related things, he always seems happy and agrees to help. But, when I chat him up about his personal life, he gets nervous, can't maintain eye contact, and answers quickly without looking into my eyes too often. He never initiates conversation with me and doesn't say hi unless I say it first.
During the summer, I told him online that I'd like for us to get to know each other better and he didn't answer me. I was very upset, but when school started again, we went back to our mixed signals routine. We've had a few petty fights, but it always seems like we forgive each other and end up not speaking one week, and back to mixed signals the next week.
I often see him talking to other girls and he doesn't seem to have a problem talking to them.
Is he not interested?
Is it time to move on or be more aggressive??
