There are several reasons why your crush might be talking to other girls but not you, and the answer isn't always straightforward. It could be due to nervousness, different comfort levels, or simply that you haven't initiated a conversation.
Here are some potential explanations:
-
He's Nervous Around You: As the reference suggests, he might actually like you and be intimidated. He might worry about saying the wrong thing or making a bad impression. Talking to other girls might be easier because he doesn't feel the same pressure. He might care more about your opinion of him than the opinions of other girls.
-
He Perceives You as Unapproachable: You might unintentionally project an air of being uninterested or too cool to approach. He might think you're out of his league or that you wouldn't want to talk to him.
-
He's Trying to Make You Jealous: While this is less likely and potentially manipulative, he could be talking to other girls to gauge your reaction or to see if you're interested.
-
Different Social Groups/Contexts: He might interact with certain girls in a class, club, or activity that you're not a part of. This gives him a natural opportunity to talk to them that doesn't exist with you.
-
You Haven't Given Him an Opening: Has he tried to talk to you, and you've seemed uninterested? He might be waiting for you to initiate the conversation. Sometimes, a simple smile or "hello" is enough to break the ice.
-
He Sees Those Girls as Friends: He may simply view these other girls as friends and feel comfortable talking to them without romantic intentions. He might be more comfortable in general with platonic relationships.
-
He Doesn't Realize He's Not Talking to You: It's possible he's just generally social and doesn't consciously realize he's excluding you. He might not even be aware of your crush on him.
What you can do:
The best way to find out the real reason is to try initiating a conversation with him. A simple, friendly greeting can go a long way. Don't overthink it; just be yourself and see how he responds. If he seems receptive, continue the conversation. If he seems uncomfortable or avoids you, it might be a sign that he's not interested or is indeed nervous.
