Dear Blake,
I’m in college, and in one of my classes there is a guy that I am really attracted to. He doesn’t say much, and I don’t know anyone that knows him, so I don’t know how to read him. Every now and then I catch him looking in my direction, with me hoping he would say something to me, but he never does. I have a crush on him, even though I am baffled. Your thoughts?
Signed, Allison

Dear Allison,
So you’re trying to get to know a guy that appears to be shy and possibly introverted. He might be trying to keep a low profile because he’s probably being sought after by the police, or he could just like keeping to himself. He could be glancing at you because he thinks you’re attractive, or he could be trying to determine how easy it would be to stuff you into his trunk, as he’s hauling you off to an isolated destination. When he glances at you, he might be admiring your beauty, or he could be wondering why there are so many homely looking women in his classes. So, be optimistic. If he‘s a movie buff, he might be thinking of the romantic comedy, “Sleepless in Seattle”, when the boy gets the girl and you two might live happily ever after. On the other hand, if he’s thinking about “The Texas Chainsaw Massacre”… I hope this helps.
Blake
