What does it mean when a guy sings in front of you?

…maybe it means he likes the song? I don’t know if you can truly tell from him singing in front of you if he’s interested in you or not though.

Oh and welcome to Fluther :D

I would venture on to say that he feels adequate enough to sing in your company.

Sounds like he may be trying to impress you….
or he is secure with his vocal talents and feels safe with you.

Was he singing to you? If yes then he’s putting it out there for you. It’s a little too gray to tell from your description has he done anything else to suggest he likes you?

If we eliminate the possibility of mental disorders then you are left with:
A. He really loves the songs.
B. The above plus he feels very comfortable around you OR is very self confident.

C. It is possible that he likes you.

He likes to sing? He forgot you were in the car? He’s a music major? He is expressing his true and undying love? He is a fan of Britney Spears?

A few more details might help.

I’m not sure if he was singing to me or not. I had asked him what the song was and he told me it was a random local band and said it was a great song, and then he just started singing.
I had thought before that maybe he was interested in me, there are other signs that he is. We spend a lot of time together, he is always at my place for no reason and we stay up late at night talking.

And he is not a music major

He could possibly be into you…but he may also just find you as a great friend. There’s really only one way to find out, and that’s from him directly. Don’t read too much into his actions, just go with the flow.

I doubt he would be hanging out with someone he’s disinterested in.

@Ender – Very true, but I have guys who are just friends and we enjoy each other’s company. So really it could go either way.

I think that’s why I am over analyzing every detail, I’m trying to figure out which way he is leaning

He is just too confusing…

Sounds like he’s comfortable enough to sing in front of you, which means he likes you enough for that. Now, as to whether he LIKES YOU likes you, ask him out and see what happens!

Look for prolonged eye contact. It can be a sign of affection.

We have definitly had prolonged eye contact. He is just very hot and cold at times, I can’t read him

Has there been much touching or intimate advances?

Er, maybe he sings as a hobby? Did you ask him if he sings professionally or in the choir?

I’m positive that he is not any kind of singer, and he has never struck me as the type of guy to just break into song.
As for physical contact, there was one night a few weeks ago, I was really upset and scared about something and he stayed on the couch all night with me and just held me, and we just talked.

What type of guy breaks into song?

Gene Kelly.

I guess it’s just a side of him I haven’t seen before

The guy doesn’t seem to be in a rush to profess his undying love to you.

Is he singing Chuck Berry’s song “My Ding-A-Ling”? Then I KNOW why!

no, it was some random local band I had never heard of haha.
Should I actually make some sort of first move then, or continue to leave it up to him?

Are you sure it was playing off the radio? It may have been staged.
Instead of playing these mind games, you could ask him of his actual stance towards you, though who am I to tell you how to live your life?

Thanks, I may give that a try. The mind games are just worthless and confusing

Prospective relationships tend to be just that, unnecessarily.

@Dog – best answers!

i sing in my car…i don’t care who’s in it. i think he liked the song.
unless he directed it towards you. i’d be a little put off by that.
