How do you keep a guy interested in you that you have known for a long time?

It sounds as if you are a bit confused, Look at yourself, what this individual likes in you, what about you attracts him.when you find out then you can be the person he loves don't be pushy, give him space make suggestions, never dictate. Ask for his input in things you both do together. Be a lady not a woman, The times you both spend together should not necessary be quantity but quality, find out what turns him on be caring and loving but don't be too frivolous. Give him things to always think positive of you, Be honest in all you do and say

The best way is to be yourself and not try too hard. \n\nIf it's a specific person who's attention you are trying to get, let him know. But don't make it all about you and how you feel. What is it you like about him? What are his good qualities? Tell him what they are and what you like about him. That will definately get his attention. Then go on to tell him what his good qualities do for you, or how he makes you feel. Boost his ego and make him feel like the man and he'll be yours ;)

I think the guy should be honored and pleaseed that you have decided that you want to take your relationship to the next level, which is the level that is the most exciting yet dangerous (for it can swing either way and make or break the relationship). This is especially because you were in such a long-term relationship before and for most females, it's not easy to move on. So the fact that you have should tell him that you want something with him, and the last thing I'd expect is him to be patronizing and picky.\n\nI say JUST BE YOURSELF and go with your heart, mind and the flow of it all. Don't cater yourself to him or feel like you have to pander your 'stuff' to his liking. If he is in love with you as you are with him, everything you do TO and WITH each other is all good, girl.

You should find someone else that he's been friends with for a while, then build that person up so that he won't like the old person anymore. I have had so many crushes in my lifetime, and that's what I do, sure... it takes a while, but it's worth it in the end.

I have a huge crush on this guy and I have had it for a very long time, but there is no way that I could ever tell him. We are really good friends and I don't want to mess anything up.

the saying can be try in your case but make sure you dont make a fool of yourself.  chat him up, invite him to coffe/tea - something very casual that will show you if you still like him they way you thought, and will give him a idea of what kind of person you are.  But make sure you give him space - you dont want to scare him off. (also dont get your hopes up- a lot can happen in 2yrs and you may not like him after all)

this is a simple answer and it looks like you answered it yourself. treat the people you are interested in like a friend. sometimes, people can tell that you are interested and maybe even overly interested so they distance themselves. guys kinda want a little chase. if it's too easy, anyone can get you. if you're just out of reach, there's a little mystery and something a little intrigueing. good luck.

Let him know you are still interested in him. If he feels the same way, he'll let you know. In my experience, you have to be blunt with guys. Don't just act flirty and all that, he probably won't get it. Just ask him if there is still a chance for you two.

If you know his past then there should be no question, but since you asked.......... don't be available all the time, even if you want to hang out. It will put him to the test. Either he will stop calling, or he will call more which could mean that he is really interested. You say he has been a player ; start a game, but in order to win you have to have distance from him, and last but not least DON'T LOOSE YOURSELF!!!!!!!!! (really important) Know at all times who you are and what you want ; be a little selfish.

you get him to notice you by just being yourself. never change who you are for someone. and if you do want to change yourself make sure its to benfit you and not someone else. you can introduce yourself to him know your interested.

One good way is to have a conversation with him and find out what he likes to do. Basically be interested in him. Pull him in slowly by adding bits of yourself into the conversation. Give him the eye and hook if he bits than he knows for sure your interested.

If you have know him for such a long time then he might have already have known it and you just confirmed it. He might have just kept talking to you because it wasn't anything he did expect from you. Even if he's not looking for a GF I would ask him how he feels about you and go from there, who knows maybe he's playing hard to get?

A little time (a couple of days) never killed any relationship. Leave him wanting more by giving him some way to contact you, or get some info from him and call him later. Another tip: fun and chill group activities are a great way to get to know someone before pairing off alone. How about inviting him on a group thing (with your family or friends) before committing to a date? If he's not into getting to know you over time, you can gaurantee he's not the one your looking for.

I think you should just tell him that you are starting to dig him and see what he says.  Worst case scenario: he says he's sorry but he's not as into you.  At least he is just online and you won't be so embarrassed because you haven't actually met him and he can't turn you down to your face.  I'm sure if you have been chatting that much then he must have at least a little interest in you though.\n\nGood luck girl!!!!

at this point, you have got to be strong gurl! its kinda hard getting a guy thats shy too, just like you... so, do anything that you think will get his attention... by just approaching him, you will get his attention.. tell him you want to be friends with him.. and when you guys do become friends, tell him you wanna get to know him more.. and you wanna hang out... if he does agree... go somewhere quiet... tell him that its hard for you to say this at this point, but tell him that you really like him a lot.. and then ask him what are his feelings and tell him to be honest... and if he tells you his true feelings, and tells you that he does also likes you, then you've done it gurl!! good for you! but if he doesnt like you, dont worry! you have so much more years ahead of you.. im sure you'll find a guy thats so much hotter and cuter than that guy... and he might even like you back too :)

You should never be shy to let someone know that you are interested in them or getting to know them better through spending time with them.  You have nothing to lose and if you find out now that he has plans already, you can still have time to plan what you want to do.\n\nHope that helps.\n\nMark
