Stares From Far Away But Doesn't Smile 

Book A Consultation - datinglogic.net/consultation/

This guy who keeps staring at me needs to not try to "lure" me in bc he's clearly shy and I'm definitely not about to talk first so I guess we'll just stare until the end of the year

It makes me feel uncomfortable if he doesn't smile, even though I'm smiling

My boss stares at me from far away and I know he hates me lol

I was thinking of the guy while watching this

I'm only here for the stories.

As someone who has anxiety and social anxiety, it’s terrible being in this type of situation lol I start to overthink and I feel uncomfortable and would probably walk away from the whole thing .

sounds psychotic to me

IMO, men do this because they are unavailable and want other female attention without the 'cheating' aspect of it coming into play. Yes, he wants the women to be thinking about him and maybe grow to be interested in him. The women may like the attention (they've been lured in, as you've stated) and hope something will happen, but there's no pay off because it's probably going to be nothing more than a staring game. I've come across this situation many times, men stare and do nothing. You think they're interested in you and they do nothing because they can't. If they were single and available I would think eventually they would make a move if they see they've gotten the woman's attention and they sense a response (non-verbal) from her. I think it's awful to play with someone's head like that. I know I get tired of it.

I call those guys creeps

I have done this but it really isn't my intention to creep the girl out. It is most when I find a woman drop dead gorgeous.

This was happening to me recently with an electrician that is doing work on my office building. Would stare into my eyes and hold the gaze. The guy seemed to be really into me so I approached him because I thought he was shy. Turns out he was married. So he did it as a game. To keep his life fun since he's probably bored to death in his marriage. Also to keep me thinking about HIM and not his single and available co workers who were obviously into me. Sick bastard!! All the time I wasted thinking he liked me. SMH

there's this guy who used to do that when we had class. he made me so nervous cos he would stare at me without smiling. And for some reason I felt so intimidated by him that I couldnt look at him more than a second. Now when I see him, I still cant make eye contact and last time he approached and talked to me. But he's never smiling so it makes me think that he finds me boring or something cos usually im always smiling around people and people smile back..

dude why the fuk you giving away our secrets?!?!?....traitor...lol

Guy from my class (and yeah i like him) stares right into my eyes and doesnt smile or anything,just dead serous face.i wlways look aways because idont want to stare at his scary serious face,he is cuter when he smiles

This guy does this to me often and i swear he wants to murder me lol It creeps me out!

Its not that complicated. We look because we like what we see. It's not part of some game. If he doesn't approach its because he is reading from you that you're not interested. Or he could be too timid or unavailable.

So in other words he's a player lol

When I look at a girl, but don’t smile, it’s not me trying to lure girls in. I just feel like someone was looking at me and I look to make sure I was right😂

This is what a Narcissist does, 💯 exactly a Narcissist. Thanks.

dammit stop spilling the beans man!!!

Beware of guys who do this because they are not the nice type. Hell, they going to get more girls than the nice type though, cos women have this unfortunate tendency to fall in love with a holes

Im a boy and... if a boy stares at u ladies, that means he loves you or he just thinks you r sexy edit: if he looks at you often, he is in love with you for sure

I had this happen to me at an awards show years ago. I was a seat filler and kept feeling like someone was staring. It was this musician in a pretty famous band at the time. He stared at me but didn't smile. As I would move around I would catch him staring at me but not smile. I thought he must be on drugs or I had food on my face or something. It was creepy.

That's exactly the scenario happening to me. I keep on thinking about why was he staring at me when I'm around? The sad part is, I can't ask him why.

This dude used to do this to me when I was in his class. I used to be REALLY REALLY shy which meant I didn't talk a lot. He just stared at me blankly so I stared back and smiled. It made him really uncomfortable so he looks away. Then one day he came up to me and asked why I was staring at him all the time. I replied with "I'm sorry? I can't speak the English really well,". Then he just stopped talking to me...oops?

being a man i have done this before and just to add my 2 cents in to all the women watching. men are simple, direct decisive. we see something we like we are going to take as much as we can in. even if it's just a glance or a few seconds. men are visual creatures. but dating logic is right. women love mystery. For me at least when i do look but don't smile it's kind of subconsicous and depends on the situation. for instance if i make eye contact with a women and i see she's holidng it longer than usual and i see that twinkyle in her eye i'll flash a smile. always ends well. when you make eye contact it's either a friendly encounter or a hostile one. but when two just make eye contact and don't smile move anything it's kind of like " anything" can happen.

Then you STAY AWAY FROM THAT PERSON LET'S BE REAL

Okay you just scared me even more now I'm about to cry he was staring at me everytime I looked back he still was looking at me with a blank face I was uncomfortable,awkward,nervous, and emotional asf

it can be creepy.

Thank you! I started at a new job 3 months ago, somebody kept on doing that to me. Then I asked him a question why he stared so much. He answered with "Stare?" As if he didn't even know about it. Never in my life has anyone done that to me in such close range. Coming from a different culture and generation, I found it very difficult to relate to that. One time he did such an intense stare, it felt like a stab to the heart. Now I understand why. Too bad for him, it did not work.

Wow would men really go through so much mental planning in order to attract a female, I always assumed men didn't overthink in the way women do and definitely not manipulate a women into things.

my co-worker does this. he's very attractive and I always catch him staring at me from far away. we talk occasionally, but not too often.

Wow exactly my situation!!! Thank you for the advice!!! That guy was just keep staring at me and that made me think about him all the freaking time because I didn't know what was his action mean, now I got it!

Fuck! It's true! And it fucking works!

Everyone on here is hiding something

I feel it depends on the guy. There are some real creeps out there -so be careful. Especially if older not a guy in your school. That stare can be from a guy that wants to hurt you. Then, there are kind guys you see that like you stare & are afraid to approach you shy. I wouldn’t approach a guy that states though. Beware I say a lot of creeps I’ve learned that I never knew existed.

Yeah.....That's exactly what these guys do. They are sooo comfortable with trying to lure you in, but when I became really upset and angry at his stupid behaviour and figured out that he wasn't looking for anything serious, I told him off really good and then he said to me that I needed to stop reading into things that don't exist and that whatever I saw wasn't real. Some guy. He wanted the physical attention but didn't want to take accountability for his actions.

i do that to but i dont think about all the stuff he's is saying ... i do like the girl but im just not happy .. for me it is insecurity i know this.. fear of rejection and the hurt it may cause if it takes a long time ... its not trapping some girl ...at least not for me

When a girl stares and doesn't smile it's shyness. When a dude does it is luring. This guy

as a guy who does this with every woman i find attractive in more ways than physical (even if u just let them, i can feel it) this is 100% true 😂

Mostly true but I'll just point out to girls that it's only true if the guy would normally smile but it trying not to. If the guy is just the type that doesn't smile often (like me) or is just generally miserable then this video can be very misleading.

I had a guy at work do this and he lost his job for sexual Harrassment.

This helped me out a lot. More often then most guys will look at me and not smile. I have always wondered what was going on in their minds. Does he like me? Do I have something on my face? And other questions I've asked myself. For the past five years every guy that I think is cute does this to me, and never knowing what that look meant I never talked to the guy. Now that I have some information about it, next time a man does that I will go up and talk to him. Thank you so much.

What ?? I don't know if that's the intention of other guys..But Personally Why I Do This is Because I simply like the girl but i don't want to be too close to her..just because either i know she has a bf or likes someone else ..Basically Im just Savouring her lovely Looks Thats All..But keeping it from a safe distance so i won't get a fist in the face or something LMAO ; D

Same here. He's extremely shy. I guess.. Even if we end up getting married, we'll just keep staring at each other for the rest of our lives.

You are totally right about it. The thing is, this is exactly what is happening to me right now. I don't know what to do or neither what to think, is a quite big difference(age) between us and I am not sure what he meant. When I made eye contact with him, he was,like, already staring at me in the eyes. I looked away because I was surprised and shy at that time,and when I looked back at him he was still staring at me in the eyes. I kept that eye contact like 4-5 seconds and I was the one AGAIN who looked away. I guess I wasn't that confident like him at all. I don't know what to thing or what to do, because this thought of being just friendly is still in my mind. He is much older, what can I tell? It is very difficult to say... He was kind of lost in my eyes, didn't make a single move. he was watching me while I was walking. What do you think is was on his mind in that moment? He didn't even blink. Is hard to tell if he had his eyes bigger than before, I am not sure. He was confident on himself and also he's not a shy person...

It means he's a Stalker Watch out🏃🏃🏃 And keep 911 on speed dial😭😂

That is so creepy! Oh my gosh. This man definitely answered my question.

Damn I believe you just answered the question I’ve been looking for. Cause this dude stared me down until I was out of his view. Face emotionless creeped me out. Hell I’m definitely thinking about him

Although I've got to say this guy at my school confuses me. He would often stare at me with no expression on his face, and then say whenever he's with a group of friends and I gravitate towards his group to try to get close to him, he'll kind of smile and walk away. Some times he'll look interested in me and other times he would appear to be cool and act as if I'm not there. It really intimidates me, and I feel like I'm not good enough for him.

Thanks for this! I've dealt with this a lot but never knew there was a deeper meaning to it...

That’s creepy. I will assert my dominance right back at em.

I just assume he’s a creep 😒 There’s a guy who’s been doing this for months now. My reaction is no reaction.

He usually just glances at me and when I notice him I look away but because I look away quickly I don't get to see if he did

He stares and we look at each other :)

i remeber this guy staring at me a few years ago it would creep me out at first but then i would stare back without smiling like he did i rember one day i was playing soccer/fotball by myself waiting for my little sister he came really close to me and tried to touch me he took my hand and i ran away for my life because i was alway creeped out by him because he would stare at me for no reasonlol but now i know he liked me because he always tried to act confident or cool when i was around and he used to straighten up hes shoulders and his puff up his chest when i look at him he always tried to be close with my little brother so he could be around me i didnt like him at all i thought he was weird creepy anyoing acting to confident so i would advice guys to act normal not cocky or diffrent around the person u like.

Wow I'm shocked that no one has mentioned this but there's a high chance that he's shy. My crush did this for months.

please God make this true :(

It happened to me while driving the guy was in his car staring at me no smiling just a deep dark stare during a red light traffic stop. He stared until the light turned green.

Well...I seriously fell on his trap. Those gazes of him caught me and I don't know what to do. Seriously! I like him so bad but I can not find the words to start a conversation. I'm so helpless. He really needs to know I like him so much. -_-

So how exactly do us girls react to this? What should we do? And does it mean he likes you or is he just trying to trap u for the fun of it (messing with feelings)

She just finds you very pretty/attractive or is lusting on you. Other than that he doesn't have any plans getting to know more about you or won't do anything more about it.

Sometimes we are just shy and nervous. I've creeped a chick out who liked me by doing this and it feels terrible. Just know it isn't always with bad intent.

This sounds fascinating, @DatingLogic. I thought the same way about this guy and the next day when he had to move back to England, I braced up and took the courage to contact him on facebook, being completely sure of how much he had liked me with all the prolonged stares and all. But unfortunately it turned out that he is not interested. I couldn't have been more wrong about him. I was also encouraged by this video of yours. It's been 9 days already and he still hasn't answered my facebook message and friend request. I made a fool of myself and feel so humiliated. Why the hell did he stare so much and repeatedly and then not even bothering to write me one word??? Now I blocked him, does this matter? Will he contact me in the end? I must tell you that he had made a point in showing me how much he liked me, by staring repeatedly and locking eyes with me for several minutes and being serious. But it was from a distance. When I got near him, he became really tough and professional, as he was my supervisor at work. Only sometimes he got closer or hummed a song and checked my reaction.So sad.

I really liked this video! Here's my situation; When I got back to school, I noticed this really attractive guy. He also lives in my building and on the same floor as me, just a room away. At the beginning of the semester( like September), I ocassinally saw him glance at me, and I thought nothing of it. Then as the weeks went on, I noticed how often he looked at me. We both live on the first floor of our building and our rooms have these huge window. My roommate and I like to keep our blinds open, and until recently, I would always catch him staring directly into our room and at me. Now, I catch him with his friends and he can be talking to them and they all look at me, not in a bad way. At football games, he works with the event staff and he would often turn around and spit me and continue to look at me. What could all this mean?

For me when I do this it means I'm thinking im analyzing and focusing on the person I like and looking into their eyes to get locked eye contact to feel the connection for a short while lmaooo idk why I do that,lmaooo my friends are like im different lmaoo but like I like staring down into their soul and getting a connection through their eyes and like a silence lmaoo then break it lmaooo idk it depends on the person for me the person I like and when I do that and focus i feel like a connection like an in the moment thing

When my crush stares at me while not smiling i pretend not to look at him but i clearly know he is starring but i usually looked back and he turned his head fast

Some guys stare at me with a confused look on their faces. I'm rarely called beautiful or complimented but when I am the guys is usually gorgeous. I've never been on a date or anything. Men just stare at me (my friends and family members have seen it) with this look of confusion/awe/and sometimes disgust? Please...I need a male opinon

is this bad? does this mean he's a player? does he do this to a lot of girls or just the ones he's truly attracted to?

im suffering from this omg im sure hes taken ...playing with my damn mind ughhhhhhh

i instantly look away when someone stares at me for more than 2 seconds. its rude

Oh my god I was looking for a explaination like this! :) So basically there was this guy that I met my junior year of high school. He definately tried talking to me at first. He would tease me in a playful way but I really loved it when I would turn around and he would be staring at me while doing something at the same time. I would always catch him staring at me or looking at me whenever he had the chance. It came to the point where he would stare but not smile. I just wished I made a move and asked why he was staring at me. I also wished he talked to me more :( 

+DatingLogic ive caught my crush several times staring at me and smiling but today he stared at me and made eye contact for at least 3 seconds then i looked away coz it was so cool but kinda uncomfortable what does this mean!?!?

This is exactly whats happening and im here going crazy telling my friend wtf is up with him, idk how to handle it!! Someone help it’s so uncomfortable to work with him it makes me not want to come go work.

I’m in exact situation. At the time is where I don’t like see myself being in a relationship and I never wanted to be in relationship in the first place. I was very happy where was. Until one time, this guy came into the scene. He was very handsome but that wasn’t enough that I would want to have anything to do with him. I just don’t acknowledge his existence as I don’t know who he was. When we first started talking a little bit, I expected that there is nothing more. Sometimes later, he came came to approach me to help me with something. I was trying to be polite with him as much as I can by saying, “thank you for your help” and then continue to minding my own business. Until then he stared from afar with that intense with no smiling which I didn’t know what that mean. Two weeks later I couldn’t get him off my mind that I started thinking about him constantly until I became obsessed with him. Every now and then he’s been given all kinds of mixed signals which confused me a lot and I really wanted to get out of the situation I never wanted to be in the first place. I wish I could go back to where I was before as I believe that this whole thing was never meant anything in the first place!

No. If he staring and not smiling - he's scary and you should not talk to him. Bad vibes for me.

I'm really scared now

I legit clicked this video because i thought it was a video of a dude staring at the camera for 2 minutes

I was actually like this. Girl would be with every dude in the room. I didnt know what to do. Im exhausted. I cant tell her anything, naturally, all i could do is look at her. Its a crazy, serious, difficult feeling. I cant do anything.

I tend to do this to most girls at work, to the point they mirror the way I don't it. 😅 nothing more than me letting them know they're gorgeous that's all.

so that kinda happened to me, i’m a smiley type but only to my close friends and we both ended up looking at each other at the same time and we just stared at each other and we both had blank faces lmao are we both psycho?

Some people are just peculiar. I like analyzing people.

i locked eyes with a girl this morning, it held for 4 or 5 sec, she smiled but then she walked away with her comrades. xD

That is so smart. How have I not noticed?

What about stares but barley talks to you?

If your listening to this comment right now sir! I'm listening my name is smiles and hate looking at people!

Lol,DL, I have short sight and I find contacts and glasses a hassle. I can't see if people are smiling or not from a distance let alone looking at me. So I can't see if that's someone I like or dislike. I walk a lot and I have to make a guess as to whom that person is coming towards me or away from me. The problem is it may look like I am paying someone perv time when in reality I am confused. If I know what's going on I try and smile. I don't think I ever look and not smile, or raise my eyebrows in greeting. I have a lot of woman walk past or women who are in front of me look back. I don't know if this is because they like me or are creeped out. I didn't know I was being seductive or attempting to be.

He needs to just Hello and act like regular human. Everyone says Hello unless they're psycho. 🤣

So there's this guy that stares at me whenever I'm around, its been happening on and off for about 6 months; its super awkward. Recently, his stares have become more intense, he never smiles, he just stares at me and I usually hold his gaze unless I'm busy. He hasn't approached me, I'm really not sure if he likes me. Its just super confusing.

“I’m nOt lIke oThEr bOys”

I’m kinda glad to see similar situations .. So here’s the deal . I work at the mall and across from me there’s a store. Mostly all guys work there and all the guys stare at our store lol . But there’s this guy that does it too often . Like I noticed not too long ago. But this guy doesn’t smile when he stares at me all the time. But I don’t feel like it’s a creepy stare. Although I do stare back because I’m curious , he sometimes looks away pretty fast (very few) but mostly at times just stares longer than I do because I can’t maintain that long of an eye contact with someone because I’m a little shy so I look away... But he does try to stare at my eyes idk how to explain it really. . it’s like kinda weird. Sometimes I see him outside waiting in his car too. And one time he came to my store talking in the phone or something but couldn’t approach him because I as busy..but then left back to his store. so I did this same thing. I went over to his store but I asked a legitimate question about something in the store haha and he talked to me all normal, he didn’t look nervous or anything if anything he looks like a serious person m. I don’t understand :/ Like what does this mean? Why does he look at me from a far every time I work but doesn’t smile or approach, talk to me? It’s been going on for like a month now( or I’ve barely noticed, idk how long he’s been doing this. I barely Noticed him) Does he want something from me? Or does he just want to be my friend ? Or does he want to hurt me? Is he toying with me? Like idk 🤷🏻‍♀️ and I don’t want to go ask him because what if he wants to hurt me or has bad intentions?. There’s just this mysteriousness. & I don’t even know why I care or am even asking people. I guess I am a little confused and concerned but this if I’m being honest..

It worked, I'm thinking about him

A guy I like is talkative with other girls, flirts with them, laughs really loud but, as soon as he's around me he's super quiet, and doesn't acknowledge me (sometimes he does). Before he was holding the door for our coworkers but, when he saw me he let go of the door & I had to catch it. But, now everytime I see him he opens the door for me. Yesterday, I caught him staring at me three times but, not smiling. Sometimes he raises his eyebrows at me & smiles, but he rarely initiates conversation. Does he like me? Or am I just confused?

Best explanation I've heard,,,TY!

He stares at me from from far away but when I'm up close and around him he just looks at me and then looks away but to other people he stares at them in general and when I'm not looking I notice he looks at me and I can feel him staring at me. Whenever he looks at me I catch him and I always look away first because I'm shy and after I look away he looks away too and he also he always looks down at me when he's on the first floor and I'm on the ground floor and stares at me

thank you so much..you really answer a lot of my questions that i always have in my head about this guy who i think is giving of lot body language signs to me :)

okay so i like this guy in my class and i always see him staring at me..but today he asked me why i stared at him and i didn't say anything back..he asked his like 2 times already.GoD i just stare at him coz he stares at me..someone Help!!what should i tell him

Well there’s an older pastor at church that does this to me. I just smile and say hi. He did this to me the other day when I got up during the service to go to the restroom. His expression is so serious staring as I walked past I would think he’s silently reprimanding me. When I smile and say hi he just nods at me. He also tends to have that same serious expression when I see him after service is over. But once I start talking to him his whole demeanor softens and he listens very intently to what I’m saying. I guess because I don’t give into the attempt at intimidation. I just continue with my bubbly greetings lol. He also tends to lean in for a friendly side hug… so I don’t know I wonder sometimes because I don’t see him hugging everybody. Maybe he just doesn’t realize how serious he’s looking at first.

this guy in my class has been doing that to me every day pretty much since we started school, also I'm new at the school this year an i always catch him looking at me, today he was standing in front of me in line and he was facing me just looking at me and i looked back at him and away because i was nervous. but he has a girlfriend.. so I'm not sure why he's always staring??
