It’s true but u gotta remember that not all guys that like u will want to approach u. Like all that approach u like u but there are plenty more introverted guys or maybe they just weren’t feeling up to it. It’s like a squares and rectangles situation. All squares (guys that approach u) r rectangles (like u) but not all rectangles are squares
It is true up to an extent, it depends on the environment and situation. If I see someone at a coffee shop that I like sitting alone, I probably won’t. But if they’re in line and I’m next to order behind them, yeah I’ll probably strike up a conversation. I’m sorry if that was general but if you’re willing and comfortable, I can help you if you have a specific situation
Of course it's true, but if he hasn't met you before then I guarantee he doesn't like you enough to hit that threshold because he has no idea who you are. If a guy doesn't approach it's because he's not comfortable approaching strangers knowing he's probably unwelcome, it's rarely about you.
there was a guy i’d see on campus all the time and we had classes together too. i’d always catch him staring at me but he never said anything. in class i was usually sitting with friends but outside of class i was probably alone. i experience guys staring at me without saying anything a lot but this is the one i actually liked
Tbh it sounds to me like he probably did like you, but he misinterpreted your nervousness in looking away as disinterest or discomfort, so he probably became boyfriends with a woman who smiled/waved at him when she caught him looking like #2 said, or who otherwise came across as more interested or approachable.
