So, there is boy in my class. I knew him as a person that he existed but didn’t really talk to him. He was my senior in college. I sent him a friend request on Facebook just without any agenda and then one day. I received a message from him. He didn’t really know how to converse in English very well buy I knew from whatever English he spoked to me that he was flirting with me. But I didnt really reciprocate that much because since he is a senior in college and I would see him regularly. It was better not to flirt back and create drama in college. But now, he got dropped back. Anywys he did tell me that he failed and would be joining our class for the next semester. So that even made me more conscious of not flirting and ding anything stupid that I would regret later. So nowadays, I see him regularly in class. Basically, it just feels like he doesn’t know me. And I’m a stranger to him. But I haven’t tried talking to him or saying anything about our Facebook chat because I feel things should just be left the way it is. But why do people prefer to chat and be themselves on Facebook and in person they shy away from any form of conversation. It’s really wierd. Because now I feel like those conversations didn’t happen and he is just someone who just popped up in class. Well, I’m going to continue not talking to him. And if ever I get the chance to talk to him. I’m definitely going to act like it’s my first time and that the Facebook conversation never happened.
Be inspired. Be you.

Hey!
Girl, I can relate to this. Except my situation is slightly different.
I was talking to a man, for the most part, on Facebook.
At one point he did have my phone number, but I guess he liked Facebook chatting more.
I have to admit, chatting on Facebook is SO much easier, and much quicker!
But I too, thought it was strange. Like dude, why not text me?!? or call me?!? Lol.
I think maybe your guy is shy. He may feel a little more at ease talking to you through Facebook. Don’t think too much about it 🙂 It’s normal. Just go with the flow, and chat it up!

Yeah. Probably shy. But I find it a turn off if a guy talks to me on facebook and then pretends like he doesn’t know me in person. Cz I see him every day in class. It comes across as he being rude and kind off wierd I guess. Because he doesn’t even smile. Basically we both ignore eachother now. Even if he is right in front me I just pretend like I didn’t see him cz he does the same too. I’m not really thinking much about it anymore though. I have just accepted it that way. But thanks though for sharing your thoughts on this. And as for your guy. I think if you met him on facebook then it’s pretty much going to feel comfortable chatting on facebook. And Facebook is still one of the best ways of communicating.

I think it is rude of him too. It is weird. No doubt. He should say something. That’s happened to me a few times. More often than not, it is their own personal problem and has nothing to do with you. I met my guy at work, in person. Not on Facebook. So I thought it was really really weird he preferred talking to me on Facebook rather than through texting. But after a while I just stopped caring, and yes, we did eventually start talking over the phone but it was still weird how he talked to me on Facebook for the longest time when he had my phone number. Guys are strange, aren’t they?

Seriously strangest creatures. Lol. For me I just see it as a sign on not interested. So I basically turn on my not interested button too. And yeah why would you message on Facebook when you have someone’s number? It’s better to stop caring. And just not bother. Whatsapp would still be preferred? Why not whatsap? Cz whatsapp feels more personal. Facebook is overrated now.

hahaha love this! especially that last line 🤣 I can see what Blue Sittia means though, Maybe he’s just shy, & if that’s the case he’s not going to make “the first move” so to say, Have you ever just confronted him with the situation? Just been like “Hey! About what you said on FB…” or even just “Hello”? Cause maybe from his perspective he feels the same way as you do 🤔 ah anyway, I definitely do get what you mean, I see how it may be initially awkward to talk offline, because it’s different from what you’re used to, but any connections made on any platform are valid & it’s a bit odd when someone doesn’t see it as such, cause then what’s the point at all?

I have never tried talking to him about it. And though my friend is a close friend of his. She did something that had me saying hello to him but then his expressions were just wierd. That was a hint to just not bother. He recently did that with my friend. He sees her and hoes over to another classmates chair to sit and chat. Some guys just need to grow up. And I’m anywys not patient enough to care lol. It doesn’t really matter anymr. The Facebook conversation is history. I think I like geography better. Ha.

I guess people don’t feel as vulnerable with texting and messaging but face to face communication is important. I find the conversation flows way better than any form of texting or messaging and it takes away from the emotional interpretation problems because you can see and hear that persons emotions. You won’t really connect with this guy unless he makes an effort to come and talk.

Yeah. True. For me it’s just makes me think of him as a player or something. Cz he probably doing the same to plenty other girls on facebook. But for I care. It’s probably best I distance myself from him. I don’t really get a good vibe from people who act indifferent in person. I know when a guy is shy and when a guy is just being irrelevant. He doesn’t seem shy but he flats out ignores. So I guess he just considers it fun talking to girls on facebook. Cz you can basically get away with anything when you don’t see the person face to face.

Wow. How sad. Btw the boy has started talking to me in class now. Lol. I guess maybe he was looking for the right time to get my attention. But yeah it’s nerve racking when someone that talks to u on fb or any other platform can’t talk to you in person. You should get the courage to talk though. You never know what the person has in mind abt you.
