Cute guy keeps teasing me?

Asked by travelbabe24 (262points) March 12th, 2016 from iPhone

This guy I barely know at work is so weird. I ve talked to him once, and it wasn t even talking, it was just him helping me. Anyways, recently every time he sees me he starts to tease me over little things. For example, I was handing my coworker some papers but then I realized I had given her the wrong pile, so I yelled “I am so sorry!”. The guy was standing near by and he then came up and said “Wow Jenna! Screwing up everything again huh?!” He teases me like this a lot, or just tries to make me laugh I guess.

Ive noticed that he is always staring at me. I usually look away shyly but sometimes I ll smile and he will smile back. He s kind of cute, so this is why I am so curious. I d like to go talk to him but we are usually so busy and I don t get much time to.

What do you all think? He obviously doesn t like me because he knows nothing about me, so why is he like this?

Yep, us cute guys tease girls because we want to talk to them but have no mature social skills to do so properly. We resort to grade school tactics because we’re pretty dumb chums in general. That’s why we’re attracted to intelligent girls, to balance us out.

All a smart girl needs to do is look at us with a big empathetic smile and say “You really don’t have to tease me just to talk to me. You could just ask me out”. You’d be amazed at how fast we smarten up, stop teasing, and start loving.

You’re doing it all wrong. Next time you see him staring at you, make a face at him. Stick out your tongue. (Well, not too far, or that will give him the wrong idea, too.) Ignore the hell out of him and see what he does then.

Yep, he’s totally into you. Next thing you know he’ll be leaving you little gifts like dead mice and shiny little pebbles. Oh wait, cats and birds do that, it;s been so long I forget what human males do. lol

WTAF? Men are stupid, Women are smart. This has four upvotes already? You make me sad Fluther.

If roughly half the population (men) lack social skills can such skills accurately be called social?

Jak's avatar

(Cheeks redden) Oh. Well, heh heh. I guess I shouldn’t have taken a guess, then. I just .. hey! What’s that over there? (Ducks out and runs!)

SecondHandStoke's avatar

There’s nothing wrong with ass.

@SecondhandStoke Now, don’t embarrassed @Jak by talking about her ass!

Sometimes teasing (long term) shows an inability to verbalize anger.
And other times if NOT prolonged..it is just a means to connect…
Let him know that you do not like his teasing..you teach others what is acceptable and what is not in how to treat you.
Set him straight..in private..perhaps it is innocent , but find out.
