Scary Stuff: Is this Woman Checking Me Out or What?

    This is quite a weird, situation, folks. Anyway, I just wanted to share it with you all. My current graduate program at school provides undergraduate students with an opportunity to get both a Bachelor's and Master's degree in their fifth year. So as a result, we tend to have a whole bunch of new faces in most of my classes, majority of them being a new group of fifth year undergraduates seeking to get their B.A.s and M.A.s when they get done either in May or over the summer. I'm not in the fifth year program, and I'm currently in my second to last semester as a graduate student at my university.

    I couldn't help but notice this. In one of my courses this semester, I sit all the way in the back, by the wall. It's one of these workshop courses where the teachers make us sit in a circle to discuss various written projects. There's a white lady who in the last two classes has been sitting directly in front of me. She's new to the program, a fifth year undergraduate student. From the very first day of class, she would often turn around and look at me and my desk when we're sitting in a circle.

    This week was especially noticeable, although I kept pretending as if I didn't see it. I mean...I've talked to her a little bit, but not too in-depth. I just can't count how many times she kept turning around and looking at me. At one point, I actually began to feel quite uncomfortable. If we're doing an in-class reading and I can't find the page number of the specific text, she would turn around and look at me to tell me what page number it is. I appreciate that, though. That's the right thing to do.

    I can't read her mind and I certainly don't know what (if anything) the deal may be, but if there's something she'd like to say to me, why doesn't she just do so? It's an interesting situation. On the one hand, her constantly turning around and looking at me (without saying anything) makes me feel quite uneasy, but then at the same time, if it might be a green light of some sort, I feel as if I'm appreciating and liking it.

    She seems to be quite the wild type...a tattoo of a spider's web on her back and on her left arm, and then she often wears her hair in a pony tail. I can't wait until next class to see if it continues...

    Re:

    I hear you, antwi. It's a little too late in the semester right now to try changing courses, so that probably won't do. The most I can do is change seats if it continues. I'm not exactly sure what she's doing but by constantly looking at me and not saying a word, she's not helping either of us.

    Hmmm....yeah if I was in a similar situation I would feel a little uncomfortable myself.
    So when she does turn to look at you does she smile or anything?
    Maybe she does find you attractive and is just too shy to approach you.

    :? :?:

    Re:

    Hi Jodie,

    In response to your question...no, she doesn't smile at all. She often has a blank expression on her face. The only time she smiles is when I joke about the class and the teacher, or the one time she told me what page it was we were reading in class. Interestingly, she doesn't come across as the shy type at all. She participates a whole lot in class and once taught a course before to some sixth grade students, I think.

    Shafty, not only are you a drama queen, but you are all over the place...
    Weren`t you starting something interesting with a lady you met at a gym ??? ok maybe I missed and episode (of the drama)!

    But for that girl pony tail`s sake, stop analyzing too much like a little girlie (sorry ladies) and if that babe is interesting to you, MAKE A MOVE!!!

    I think one of your problems is that you always ask for advice for everything...it is good sometimes, but sometimes it just confuses you, especially when the advices come from a hundred different ppl on a website!!! :roll:

    C`mon bro, stop THINKING, start TAKING ACTIONS!!!! :x

    First time I've talked to Shaft..whassup?

    I am not going to slam you as "a drama queen". but you really have to study this girl. See who she hangs with, don't jump to conclusions. Once your semester gets going, you'll have a better sense of what's going on with not only the class, but with her, as you'll see how she interacts (or doesn't) with it. But I hear you dawg, this could go either way.

    Just my opinion.

    Peace out.

    Not only is she obviously attracted to, as well as interested in you (very interested, no doubt) but, she is making it more than clear that you're in there. It's written all over your first post.



    I hope you are as attracted to this chick as much as she is to you, because the evidence is clear here: Oh, man, you can so hit that! :p 8) :p



    If it was me, then I probably would've came on to her just to see what happens.
