an important question eye contact

so i was in subway and this girl is sitting diagonally across to me. i found her very attractive, she had abit serious face and amazing mouth, texting etc. i noticed her but never looked at her, then i noticed shes looking at me so i waited abit and looked back, she escaped eyes. then while she texting i looked at her, she didnt look back but after a while i turned my head away she was looking at me again. i couldnt catch her eyes without looking desperate. anyway repeat couple of times she stood up to door and this time i kept my eyes at her, she turned head and looked couple of times at me from there with wandering eyes. as she got out while passing next to window she again turned head looked at me with wandering eyes.

was she trying to catch me while i was looking somewhere else? not confident, not attracted? would like to hear opinions of experienced guys/girls.

(btw i was laidback, confident and as always nicely dressed (slick black leatherjacket, black leatherboots, dark beard and hair)

If a guy catches me checking him out, and he is really good looking, I get kinda embarrassed and look away pretending like I’m not. If I think he’s looking at me too- I will keep making eye contact and smirk/smile (I’m overly confident and most women are not). If she wasn’t interested, she would avoid looking in your direction at all- the equivalent of the “cold shoulder” or if she caught you starring and thought you were being a creep, you’d probably get a stink eye.

Dear Prscustom,

If you catch her looking more than twice, she is interested. Catch her 3,4,5 times… definitely interested.

Catch her looking hold her eyes for a second then look away while smiling. Repeat. Dont initially stare her down, you will come off as a creeper. But if it becomes a game, take it to the next level. Go say something to her. If you let her get away you may never see her again, and who knows? Maybe she was the one?? “Faint heart never won fair maiden…”

Hi celtic, lol if it happened that blatanty like in videoclip, i wouldnt wait until she gets out. And id definetly smile back. I dont know the backstory but I think that guy looked like a creeper (fassbender is one of my fav actors btw)

There was only one occasion in train where a girl had literally locked her eyes to me like hypnotized and wouldnt look away finally until i gave her a stinkeye. Looking like that can actually turn someone off. And As ladyscientist said, t also think most people even if they see someone to their liking wont have the courage to look alot in the eye.
Ladyscientist, if we met in similar situation in real life and found eachother to our liking, i think i would alot of fun flirtingwith you. :wink:

This: A girl will only let you “catch” her looking at you if she is really interested. If they do it by mistake then they tend to turn away fast and embarrased.

As above you can look straight at a girl and hold her gaze if you smile. If you dont smile then you will come over as creepy and they will turn away fast.

I love this form of flirting, even if nothing comes from it.
