Is it normal to have feelings for a guy who hardly knows you?

I have a huge crush on a guy for over a year, who is of the same club as mine. He is the club's president while i'm an active member. I started to have feelings for him since the first day I saw him. We know each other for more than a year. But sadly, we aren't close. In fact we hardly talk to one another. I've not approached him. Cause I always get nervous around him. I tried controlling myself but i couldn't. I'm not really a shy or quiet lady. I'm actually loud and fun when he's not around. And this guy always stares at me and that makes me even more nervous. Since I'm not comfortable in approaching him in person, I've tried giving him hints over social media. We are friends on FB and follow each other on both instagram and twitter. And it was me who have gave him the initial request. I've always spammed him likes on his instagram posts just to get noticed by him. But he has not liked a single post of mine. Not even those that I've tagged him. I tried texting him on general stuffs like wishing him good luck for exams and stuffs like that. But he would only text me stuffs related to the club. And that too, are mass texts that's being sent to everyone in the club.

I'm not sure if he gets my hints. Or maybe he gets it and just ignoring me. Or maybe he's too busy to even care about me. I don't wanna confess to him either. Cause if he rejects me, it would be very embarrassing for me to face him again and that would affect my club attendance.
On the other hand, its very depressing for me not to even have him as a friend. I really want to have a good conversation with him for once. I always day dream of going out with him and so on. I tried getting over those feelings I have for him. But its so hard. I don't know what to do now. I only have a few more months to try. Cause we'll be graduating in 6 months time. And after that I wont get to see him as we'll be going in different directions in life. Any advice?

    Wow! exactly similar story!! Except that I've got two more years in hand! Dont lose hope, but don't confess! Keep giving signals! It might get frustrating at times if there is no response.But try giving a solid signal Blush when he is around!

    I think you could try more or just ask him out as a joke and see what he says. But as the above poster mentioned, you don't like him if you don't know him so you should get to know him first before you decide on whether or not you actually like him and then ask him.

      Actually I kinda like stalk him all the time on twitter to see what goin on in his life. And what are the things he's into. I even know who are his siblings and so on. Besides that we have mutual friends since we're both from the same club. So if you see from my perspective, I do know him quite well. It's just him who have not noticed my presence.

    Sounds like he has no interest in you. That's probably why he never likes your posts or strikes up conversation on FB. You don't like this guy anyway, you don't even know him.

      Thanks for the advise. (: But I do know him. I've been observing him for a year. I really admire his leadership qualities and those funny jokes he cracks when we're in a group. I've stalked him on social media, so I know who are his family members and what are the things he's into. We've even organised events together for the club. Its only him who didn't take any initiative to know me better.

  • Honestly, from what you explained, I doubt he has much interest in you. Try moving on.
