The whole way I home I worried that I had come across as mean. Can guys tell a difference between someone who's shy and someone being rude?

WorstShotEver
No we cant. All we see is breasts.
TommyRoss2012
I don't compliment women. Or try to start a conversation. They look at me as if I am retarded.
DemSumBigAssRidges
If you're attracted to him, rebound by smiling and waving/saying hello the next time you see him.
driveboy
Happened to me with a pornstar I've idolized since teenage years. Told me I was handsome, I froze, blushed, shook and ran away.
TheCrazy88Horse
I'm not sure. I'm usually too shy and awkward to begin a conversation.
ludicrusspeed
Absolutely not, we only see denial
leftovernoise
Nope can't tell
Apolenge
Depends on the guy really. Some can, others can't.
thedarknessvisible
Never thought about this but I don't think I'd say "you look really beautiful." I'd probably say "you are really beautiful."
yomancs
Wish I had that kind of balls I'm so shy!
SkeletonTomJones
nope
TheLeafsAreActuallyGood
what in the world made you think that was rude, that's classic flustered and is adorable
Gencoupe204
Bitch.
turboback02bugeye20psi
yea he thought you were a bitch
awkwardashlyn
aw shucks :/
turboback02bugeye20psi
sorry..us guys dont think like that..just you females..he most likely thought you were stuck up ..sorry bitch was strong
daginge
Stuttering and beet red,you'd just come off as flustered.Avoiding eye contact at all costs that may have came off bad....
daginge
It really depends on the situation.If he followed up with asking for a number or something your good.
bballluvr23
He probably thought it was cute although if you do like him it may be better to make the first move as we can be pretty shy and unsure if it
bballluvr23
Is the right move
AutonomousPrime
Yes, if you're rapidly becoming the color of a fire-hydrant, but don't have resting-to-active state 'bitch face' or widening eyes... we can.
AutonomousPrime
Considering what I just saw on your profile... I'm not sure how a guy doing this is a surprise though. You're a knockout.
awkwardashlyn
Aw, thank you.
DasBeaker
Did you smile at him @OP ?
awkwardashlyn
Haha i did. I'm pretty sure. I hope.
DasBeaker
Then he knows his message was well received and I wouldn't worry :)
PeteThePirate
The guy is crushed and probably is already dead...
WhatRaySay
best quick-exhale comment of my day
DankS0uls
He might not think you hate him, but he probably is super embarrassed. I wouldn't count on seeing him again at that coffee shop.
FloppyFingers
Some nights I lie awake haunted by the thoughts of the girls who I thought were being rude and wonder if in reality they were just being shy
DonkeyGoat
Found your selfie. Can't disagree.
awkwardashlyn
haha thanks..
lelax
It sounded pretty clean. No worries
lelax
To be honest they probably are thinking the same way
ForPetesAche
Yes. The blushing tends to help.
perseco
Assuming he can see it under whatever makeup @OP was wearing.
LearnSomething
It's not drywall spackle, damn.
perseco
Tell that to the ladies that never learned how to properly put on makeup.
awkwardashlyn
haha I never learned. i look like a clown when i try so i've learned to just stay away from it.
kiDDarknessssS
I would hope he could tell the difference. And I checked your selfie in your bio. He wasn't wrong.
awkwardashlyn
haha well thank you
RDub64
*cringe*
kiDDarknessssS
I was being complimentary since she obviously doesn't think highly of herself.
awkwardashlyn
I could see how getting nervous from compliments could come across as not thinking well of oneself but I don't think that's always the case.
jadda123876
honestly, the way you acted, I would classify that as being a good sign.
awkwardashlyn
how?
jadda123876
okay, so, I'm a guy, so I'm providing guy insight. But most times, if a guy sees a girl get all awkward, generally it's a good thing. 1/2
jadda123876
in my opinion, if I see a girl visibly shaken by a compliment, it means this: she doesn't believe I'm telling the truth, and I can prove it.
ImgurLurkerAlsoYourBushes
No we are retarded, he totally thought you hated him. We assume if you talk to us normal you want to sleep with us.
HeathenAmerico
I'd agree but like to think we could see when a girl blushes and goes bright red. That's usually not "bad"
Zalkaholic
Or a lesbian. And then we get confused.
ticktockbent
Also a bit aroused. Mostly confused though
BythepowerofchristIamtheLaderlappen
I blame the media and having a penis. Trust me, I have one, I should know.
StrivingForEvil
He's not wrong
CommanderCaribou
SnugglesaurusRex
Well there's also the thing that if he tries again, he comes off as a rapist.
TheresAGermanWordForThat
You must be good looking. I never assume that someone wants to sleep with me until the panties drop. Even then...
ImgurLurkerAlsoYourBushes
Good looking? I wish! I just jump to conclusions, their hysterical laughter after the proposition brings me back to earth.
helpusdrzaius
You may think this is sarcasm, but no
MetaVulture
I assume that when they talk to me they just want information or for me to get out of the way because life has snuffed most of my feelings.
ncode13
.
kattahn
Hell some of us assume if you say "i want to have sex with you", you're still not interested...
JamesBluntThatSmartassCunt
This is common, but not always true.
GetBlazedSon
Have penis, can confirm.
JayneVimes
Or that you secretly hate us
ImgurLurkerAlsoYourBushes
Me hating everyone is no secret, I wasnt clear about this before? *ahem* I hate everyone, I just want to be clear on that! Fuck you all!
delgesuxx
Djmachale1
Totally going to need this
ImgurLurkerAlsoYourBushes
You know it to be true, search your feelings
delgesuxx
discardedusername
The guy who made this should be paid with how much it's now used
ThePigeons
@philcrifo if you agree, say "AYE"
Philcrifo
<3

xladyearlgreyx
Thought this was sarcasm, then it wasn't, and then it was not applicable to some and now I feel more lost than when I started reading this.
ImgurLurkerAlsoYourBushes
You were right but then you were right again. Those that claim it doesnt apply are liars and not to be trusted.
AgentR
I don't exactly know why but "No we are retarded" was incredibly funny to me. And then I realized the gravity of truth truth behind it
ImgurLurkerAlsoYourBushes
Because I am incredibly funny and dont you forget it!
AgentR
Yes, truth truth, for things that are extra true. That wasn't autocorrect at all, not even a little.
Isthe4thtimethecharm
Yeah guys are pretty oblivious to body language. But bright side is he probably hated himself for saying something.
rollercostarican
equally was likely is he got a "rejection" under his belt and is relieved that it isnt as bad as he imagined, on to the next one for him
draco91
I wouldn't say oblivious, we just require a bit less subtlety. Turning red and stuttering after receiving a compliment is pretty obvious.
awkwardashlyn
yeahhh. that's what I was afraid of. couldn't help the nervous stuff though.
mibango
Hell think youre a lesbian
Isthe4thtimethecharm
Don't beat yourself up too bad. It's not like you screamed I have a boyfriend at him. Easily explained if you meet again.
OldRazzIeDazzIe
If this would have happened to me (a guy) i would bury myself alive right there
Cyynic
You can always make it better by smiling and saying something nice the next time you see him.
madetheaccountjustforyou
If he's anything like most of you people, he's never going to that coffee shop again.
awkwardashlyn
He works there haha
yourmomisminenow
do the anime thing and bake him some cookies and give them to him while extending your arms towards him with your head looking down.
