Is suddenly disappearing from the view of some a common behavior?

Asked by naresh28 (267points) May 6th, 2011

Is it common or normal that when a particular female that a man knows, comes around, he tries to be quiet and make sure that he is somewhere behind her? Out of her view?

There is Seinfeld that discusses this issue. The Sidler . Give him some Tic-acs.

Or accidentally back up and mash your 4 inch stiletto heel on his foot.

Some people prefer to duck and hide rather than confront.

Who knows why he avoids her? I don’t think it’s looooooove ;)

Does the woman in question possess a posterior worthy of admiration?

Some men are not subtle.

How long does this guy do this routine for? Does he try to follow her around or anything? I feel like this situation has a lot of creepy potential, in all honesty. Maybe she should just turn around quickly when she sees him doing it and say, “You looking at me? Why are you looking at me?” to unnerve him.

not appear directly behind her. but always somewhere behind or out of her view in amongst other people. or in a corner. Barely talk to each other. he acts fake towards her. she is just indifferent towards him.

@naresh28: Maybe you need to find new friends or find other places in which to socialize.

@qailcalled: you answer is confusing and sounds irrelevant.

Maybe he’s a hairdresser, perhaps he was checking her roots? NO? Oh okay then…

He doesn’t want anyhting to do with you, but wants to know your whereabouts at all times to avoid you. Is this what you think? If so, what would be your wisest course of action? To continue to obsess about him? Or to look for something else to occupy your mind? Are you counting how many people you can get involved in this ridiculousness?

Pied_Pfeffer's avatar

It depends upon what you mean by ‘behind her’ and ‘out of her view’. A fair amount of men I know either wish to or do walk away from conversations broached by a woman, particularly if another woman is there, and especially when the conversation turns to speculation and/or emotions.

I’d keep away from that guy if I were you…he sounds creepy.

zenvelo's avatar

He doesn’t want anything to do with the woman, and wants to stay our of her line of sight. That way he can avoid being involved with her.

naresh28's avatar

could it be that she did something to him or he is avoiding her for another reason?

gailcalled's avatar

Why are you asking us? Ask her, or better yet, ask him, if this is a real scenario with real people.

lemming's avatar

I agree with @gailcalled, good call!

zenvelo's avatar

Hard to say, there are lots of possibilities: She may be borderline crazy, she may be very clingy dependent, she may get angry if she sees him talking to another woman, she might have been very rude to him in the past, she might have been very rude and dismissive of someone he liked.

What do you think she did to get treated this way???

naresh28's avatar

@zenvelo: i think she did not show any kind of attention to him.

Seaofclouds's avatar

Obviously he’s avoiding her for some reason or another. Only he knows that answer (and maybe she does). If you are the girl in the question and you don’t know why he is avoiding you, you can either move on and stop worrying about him or confront him and ask him what’s going on. If you are just someone observing the situation, stay out of it because it’s really none of your business, it’s between the two of them.

zenvelo's avatar

Maybe she has personal hygiene problems.

I don’t know what your relationship to the two people is, but perhaps you are misreading the situation. She’s never paid attention to him, he’s not paying attention to her.

yankeetooter's avatar

wait it’s two random people following each other who don’t even know each other, lol!

naresh28's avatar

@vankeetooter: they know each other for 4 years. Everyone else really likes this girl, including me. She’s a good friend to everyone. He use to talk to her. But she is not giving him any special attention.

Seaofclouds's avatar

@naresh28 Why does it matter what happens between the two of them? Their issues do not have to impact your friendship with this girl. If you like her and are friends with her, great. His issues with her should not change that. If she has a problem with him, she should be discussing it with him. I don’t understand why you are worried about it. Why should she give him special attention? If she doesn’t want to, then obviously she doesn’t want to. If he’s avoiding her because of that, it’s his problem.

tedibear's avatar

@naresh28 – Like @Seaofclouds, I’m wondering why this matters to you? If these are the same people that you’ve written about before, they obviously have figured out how to act around each other; you’re the one who can’t stand their actions.
