Do guys wait for their crush to approach them?

I am wondering if it’s common for the guys to wish or even expect the girl to approach them, ask them out etc. Or are guys waiting for enough”signs” to eventually ask a girl out?

What makes you like the person you have a crush on?

I was thinking about this recently and wanted to hear other people's answers. What is it about the person you like that made you develop feelings for them?

For me, it's not really just about looks. It's more about the kind of person she is, how kind she is to people, how easy she is to talk to, and how she actually listens when I tell her something. I think those little things are what made me start liking her in the first place.

I'm curious about what it is for other people. Was it something specific they did, their personality, how they make you feel, or something you can't really explain?

21 and i just found out i might be into girls?

hi everyone as the title implies i’m 21 F and i just recently developed a huge crush on a girl in my class
the problem is i come from a very religious arab family. i have no idea what to do with these feelings because everyday they occupy more space in my brain. my religious guilt is eating me alive it’s important to note that i’m not “that” religious per say but i can’t imagine pursuing this as it would put me in danger if anyone finds out.
i guess my question is how can i get over this?

Could she possibly be into me at all?

Hey everyone! Very often, I've been described as dense when it comes to the whole relationship scene, so I'd like to see what you all think on all this.
I'd like to preface all this with the knowledge that at high school, I don't have a lot to say to anyone so for the most part, I keep to myself or talk with my small circle of friends. Recently though, me and one of my friends joined my schools Table Top Gaming Club.
Now I don't know what this girls place is, she's an upperclassman and I'll call her L, in terms of standing in the club, but she does something important. The last maybe 11 or 12 times that me and my friend, for the sake of this post, I'll call him G went to attend after school, she's been there, and she's talked to us. Nothing more than surface level conversation.
Though, her being someone new, I've felt a little nervous, I've really appreciated having someone hang out with me.
The 5th time I went, she came up to me and gave me an impromptu hug and told me to look at her Pokemon cards, she asked if I knew anything about them, and without really knowing why, I told her, "sure I do." so she asked me to check if three of the newer cards her friend gave her were fake, I held them up to the light and positioned my glasses and then I remembered I don't know the first thing about Pokemon cards. I told her that me and G had plans to go to the mall and that we could get them authenticated if she wanted, she accepted and handed them to me, before she did, she looked up at me and said, "I trust you so don't give me a reason not to"
We checked them out and sure enough they were fake, while we were there though, G reminded me that it was L's birthday and that she wanted me to buy her something but didn't want to tell me to my face, so I got an AMC gift card, the next day when we went to the club, I handed her all her stuff and she said, "Thanks A, you mean a lot to me." and I thought about what to say and I said, "You mean a lot to me too, I wouldn't have done that for you if you didn't" and I hope that didn't sound rude.
afterwords, maybe 15 minutes later, I was looking around the class, and she snapped her fingers at me and blew me a kiss. Which in my opinion is notable.
I'm under the impression that she's just friendly like that and theres nothing more to it, but G tells me that he thinks that she likes me. Hearing that, I'm starting to wonder myself, though it could just be friendship that I'm mistaking for something else, as said before.
Thoughts please?

Would you date someone with the same name as your sister?

I (17f ) have a massive crush on this girl (18f) and I recently found out her sister has the same name as me. For privacy reasons I won't say the names. They are spelt slightly differently but pronounced the same. I really like this girl but I don't think she even thinks of me that way because of the name thing. I'm not willing to go by a nickname as I've tried before but really hate nicknames. I want to know other peoples opinions and/ or what you would do in this situation. Pls lmk

Have no clue how to approach

For context, I’m in 6th form (equivalent to college in the UK) and this year I’ve noticed a really cute girl by herself in study periods. She is always sitting on one of the booths with her laptop. She appears to extremely reserved and always has a sad expression on her face occasionally interrupted with a soft smile that could warm the grinches soul.

Problem is, that even when she sits with her friends*? She is still really quiet and always looks really nervous. So talking/approaching almost feels genuinely impossible without seeming like a threat. I have told my close friends (who are a bit knobbish about it) but we have all been stumped on a way initiate a convo that isn’t weird.

She has no social media other than WhatsApp which my friend found via connections but I can’t message her on there due to the fact I haven’t asked for her number.

I am not normally quite socially anxious but with her I feel like I have to be quite careful and give a lot more forethought.

Am I crazy or does she like me?

I've made eye contact with my crush lots of times in different situations, and I've gotten to the point where I think she might at least have a feeling I like her because of how much we've made eye contact (for clarification, we do talk occasionally, we're definitely not strangers but we don't talk constantly either). The other day we were sitting next to each other during a class related discussion and she put her chair closer to mine than anyone else's chairs were to each other. Then eventually she scooted her chair even closer, only inches from mine. So to see what happened I moved my legs a bit closer to her feet (which were already in my direction) so they were almost touching. Neither of us moved at all, and we both seemed quite comfortable despite the fact that our legs were like an inch from each other.

Earlier the same morning, when I first came into the classroom, she was hardly visible behind her friend who was at the same table, but I could see that she was watching me as I walked into the classroom.

And then a couple days later, when she was talking to our professor she glanced sideways at me through the corner of her eyes 3 times in a row. I wasn't doing anything that should catch her attention when she's talking to the professor so why would she keep looking at me?

Someone pls answer I need to know if any of this is a sign

My crush talked to me!! What should i do now?

Context: right now i'm an intern in the HR department at hotel and I've a workcrush on one of the receptionist. I've only talked to him whenever I arrive at the office or finish my shift, but it's literally only "good morning/goodbye" and that's all. My office is so far away from the lobby. 

So, the other day, while I was waiting in the lobby to start my shift, he approached me and told me that he was ready to leave, but he was waiting for the other receptionist to arrive so they could switch shifts and he could go home. Then, he sat down in front of me, and we started talking for about 20 minutes.

He asked me about where i live (which i found kinda personal), college, my intership and when my last day would be, among other things. I also asked him similar questions.

Whenever a guest arrived at the lobby, he would go and attend to them and then come back to sit down and continue talking to me. Fr, i was so happy, it felt they had just given me shot of dopamine lmao 

So, what should i do now? My internship is about to end in less than a month, I really want to get to know him better. As i mentioned, he's a receptionist, so he can't leave the lobby. Our schedules are very different, and i don't know when i'll see him again. And something very importart is that if they found out you're dating a coworker, you can get fired 💀

Should i ask her out and how?

I have seen a lot of videos in insta abt just asking her out no matter what
She is in one of my classes in School. I am in year 10 rn and of course I really like her a few weeks earlier she randomly added me on snap we have a snap streak of 40 days but we’ve only had one conversation so far about homework in our classes
I really want her ask out. I don’t wanna get embarrassed in school. That’s the first thing. secondly, I’m also very nervous and shy.
So do you think I should ask her out?
If so how?

.....

I have a crush, and yesterday—for some reason—they suddenly followed my Instagram account. When I saw the notification, I really wanted to accept the request and follow them back right away. But I decided to play hard to get. Why? Because I have a rule: if someone follows me, I don't follow them back immediately; there has to be a delay—maybe seven hours, a day, or even longer—even if it’s someone close to me. But... ugh, I was so stupid. Because I stuck to my guns and waited to follow them back, they ended up unfollowing me. Damn it! So, what should I do now? My pride won't let me be the one to follow them first...

I like him but i feel like i dont love him

Heres the thing! A guy i think i like but i dont know if i can love.
I feel the attraction, he gives off a bad guy energy but he really did a lot of things and put effort no guy ever did for me to show that he likes me.
The thing is i feel soo awkward around him i cant open up and show my true self in front of him and act natural. I feel that i like him but if i haven’t got past the shy and awkward me i think i dont think i can love him. He is not very talkative person too so im really just wondering what the actual heck is going on. How do i become more clear with myself and him?

Am I going crazy for being annoyed at this

me (15F) have liked this guy (17M) for a while now, hes a pretty messed up guy but he has a good heart. Yesterday/ last night he got really drunk and started texting me that he loved me and started going on about how he knew i have a crush on him and maybe he has a crush on me too?? just saying absolute bullshit and my friends really didnt like how he was playing with my feelings. On paper he was saying some fucked up stuff about how whats the point of us dating if we cant fuck and making fun of how i havent kissed a guy yet. Like i should be annoyed about that but i really cant be mad. He called me pretty and was saying all this stuff about how im cute and i maybe have a chance and whatever but that felt weird to me mainly because a friend of mine (my age few months older) confessed and he said he’d never do something like that because its pedophilic and that but i mentioned our age gap and he said only a bit??? What Diediedie.

Today, i ended up getting drunk with my friend, the same one i was on call with yesterday, while everything was happening and he was being super protective after he saw the vodka on my story. telling me to be careful and offering to come over and telling me to drink water. All kinda normal older friend activity but he started getting really gross. He kept saying how its nice to see me smile and how im pretty and blah blah blah. he knows i like him. i know he does and it doesnt sit right with me. it really feels like he’s leading me on. Like its such a dick move. he keeps calling me hun and pet names and asked me to text him when im home. He offered for us to go get matching septum piercings and said i can squeeze his hand if i get nervous. He said “youre so amazing no wonder im so drawn to you” kyskyskys.
I really feel like he’s leading me on and being a dick because he really only started being like this after confirming i like him. hes playing with my feelings right??

Also not sure if this matters but i started becoming friends with him like a week ago

Mixed signals or justified reaction?

​

Right. So. I like this guy. I'm really into him. We've known eachother for abt a month.

So he started giving me major hints and signs he's into me. And I also gave him a pretty big hints back because well. Im into him too.

Anyways after that, he invited me to hang out with his friends in a restaurant later on. Wasn't much said except for tht.

And problem is. I kinda got my period so was in no mood to go after tht.

And i called him to let him know I'm dipping and just said I had a headache and as far as ik I was pretty chill abt it. And I even said we shd totally hang out next week n everything.

So apparently him and his friends were already there. And honestly I felt kind of hurt because wtf. He invited me then doesnt text or catch up or fuckin wait??

But i was like alr cool. And just let him know I'm not coming. He was like alrr on call. But then like 2 mins later, he responded to my message sent 5 mins ago very dryly.

Idk like. From my pov, he invited me, didn't bother to text/call/wait and just fucking went. And then gave me the driest reply ever. And im pissed. Because isn't it basically courtesy let it he for anyone, let alone a girl you like to like keep with them them once u make plans?!?! Ugh. Like call/text/inform/wait anything????

But maybe from his pov, his friends just dragged him and maybe even when he was there he was waiting for me to come and not fully in the convo and I DID cancel last moment, although it was for a valid reason. And maybe he felt hurt and hence gave me a dry reply?....

Idk

Idk if I'm wrong or he's wrong or we both are wrong. And now we're not really talking and there's tension bw us. Shd I just go up to him and bring up the topic?

Will tht be too weird and desperate??

Idk. PLZ HELP. I just need a 3rd person pov here.

How do you go from friends to lovers?

Is there anyone out there with a successful friends to lovers story? If so how did you do it? Would it be better to just ask “hey next time we hangout what if we made it a date?” Or would it be better to confess my feelings?

Crush at school 13M and 13F

I am an 8th grader in middle school and I have a crush on this one girl who goes to the same school as me. I am not going to give to many details, but I don’t throw no she is in any relationships, and I have never been in one either. I have 1 class with her and I don’t know if I should try to talk to her or not. For context, I am 5’8 and do a couple sports. Reddit what should I do? (first time posting btw)

Edit - I don’t really know how to start talking to her sense I don’t really have any female friends and I don’t want to make it awkward between us/her friends by just asking for her number straight up, and I’m not sure when/what to text her even if I get to that stage.
