If she looks at you and then instantly turns away, it may be because she is shy or doesn't want to get caught looking at you. If she looks back at you and smiles, that's an invitation for you to go introduce yourself.
Nervousness comes first on the list of the reasons a girl avoids eye contact when walking by. Some people find it difficult to interact well with others. They may have what we call social anxiety disorder. Socially anxious people get anxious in social situations and events.
She likes you, and she finds it hard to look at you in the eyes because of that. She might try to hide her feelings. She just doesn't feel confident enough to make eye contact with you. She doesn't like you, maybe finds you a bit intimidating.
If she likes you, when she walks past you, she will have a tall, upright posture, and accentuate her hips just like a model would. She might not even know she is doing this, but subconsciously she wants to impress you, and a great, proud posture is a good way to do this.
But if someone breaks eye contact with you quickly and intentionally, it's usually a polarized response: they're either attracted and momentarily self-conscious by your presence, or they're uninterested and avoiding making contact altogether.
Can avoiding eye contact mean attraction? Yes, avoiding eye contact can be a pretty good sign that a person is into you. For instance, you are in a crowded place, and you notice someone gazing at you, but as soon as your eyes meet, they look away.
If you lock eyes with a girl and she immediately looks down and away, that's a sign of embarrassment. She's probably interested, but just feels shy.
She's kind of mean to you
This is all about playful flirting, not actually being nasty. If she teases you a little bit, she is definitely into you.
In this type of eye-contact, the other person stares at you even after you look back at them, and then looks away after wee more seconds. The delay in looking away can mean that they are trying to be a tease, after leaving a lingering glance on you. This short move promises attraction.
He likes you
When a guy avoids establishing eye contact, it could be because he likes you or has a crush on you. He may think that by avoiding eye contact, he can mask his feelings and make sure that you don't suspect that he feels attracted to you.
Guys with a crush might wonder what you're like—and if you like him. If he's curious to know more about you, he'll generally stare intently at you to indicate his interest. He may also approach and strike up a conversation, asking you thoughtful, open-ended personal questions to get to know you.
Key Takeaways. A woman may ignore you for a variety of reasons – maybe she is not interested in you, or she does not like how desperate or inconsistent you are. She may also be ignoring you unintentionally due to technical difficulties or a tight work schedule. Being ignored by a woman does not mean that she hates you.
You may notice her glaring at you without a trace of a smile on her face, which implies she's upset or annoyed at you in some way. Other signs that she's upset include giving you the silent treatment or speaking sarcastically (and sometimes with deliberate rudeness) when she does talk to you.
Generally, avoiding eye contact could mean they hate you and your presence itself. But in rare cases, some shy women do that. Actually, eyes are the first vehicles to express yourself to someone when you are not too close to talk or flirt. If a woman avoids eye contact then that door itself is closed.
She may have good reasons for keeping a lid on her feelings for you. She's already in a relationship and isn't sure whom she wants to be with. She knows what she feels for you but doesn't want you to know just yet. She's ashamed of her feelings for you but can't help showing them sometimes.
He leans toward you during conversation.
People tend to naturally lean toward people they like in conversation, according to Battle. If the guy you like tends to lean his face in closer to yours while he's talking to you or listening to you talk, that's a good sign that he might be into you.
Some girls may like shy guys, while others may not, just as some women may prefer outgoing men to those who are more reserved. Moreover, some women may like certain shy men and dislike others, choosing to focus on a person as a whole rather than a small sliver of someone's personality.
Simply looking at a woman directly, while also smiling, makes you appear more attractive to her. The most attractive face to show a woman is one with direct eye contact, a relaxed face (don't show tension, especially in your jaw), and an easy smile. If a woman meets your eyes, don't be the first one to look away.
They're trying to flirt with you
This is the most obvious. If someone is giving you prolonged eye contact while also showing you other signs of attraction, it's definitely flirting.
Staring deeply into someone's eyes, without looking away is a clear signal to that person that we're attracted to them. You may also catch your crush covertly looking at you when they think you're not watching. Not being able to keep their eyes off you is a sure sign of secret love.
If someone smiles a lot when they look at you and connects eye contact with smiling, it is usually because they find you attractive. They might also make fun of you and tease you, or try to make you laugh. If someone's into you, you make them nervous. Their heart will beat rapidly from being around you.
