Is it normal for a guy to accept your friend request then ignore you?

79% Normal
3 Comments

This guy knows I like him but I keep getting mixed signals. I connected with him online; I initiated and he accepted. (**note that he only has a handful of online friends and clearly doesn't use it much, so it's not like he just adds everyone or something**) Before that he seemed interested in me. Now he totally ignores me in person, acts really awkward, etc. This seems really weird to me. If the tables were turned and I knew a guy was into me but I did not like him that way, I would not have accepted a friend request. Or I would find a polite way to let him know rather than just ignoring him. Is this guy just completely clueless...or???

    What is not normal is you making a fuss about it! Don't you know that some people just accept every request to get as much friend as possible

    I knew a guy that was like this.
    I thought he was deliberately being unavailable, that is how he acted. He hardly paid attention to me. However, he was just shy. He was very self-conscious and he wanted to talk to me but he was too shy to initiate.

    Talk to him in real life. Invite him to hang out with you. Invite him to a movie. Guys don't understand that "subtle" shit like the good Knight said. This is why a lot of girls wonder why they're single: because a lot of guys now are too shy to initiate anything (who would blame them, no one wants their name all over Facebook as the loser that asked her out!).

    Initiate, lady. This is the modern age, we women have some power now, it's not all up to the men anymore!

    Guys don't understand "subtle". You'll have to tell him straight up.
