    I came across this article just in time... Thought I was beginning to get feelings for this really attractive guy at my university who I had a lot of things in common with (but was on the fence about in regards to if he was genuinely interested in me or not), this article answers my questions. Thanks for posting and preventing any potential heart break :)

    I was seeing a guy for 3 months , it's not a long time but he chased me like there was no tomorrow and we chatted every day for that time then he suddlenly lost interest, alot of these reasons fit , but I agree again I doubt he was that interested in me to start with and at the time we don't want to believe it ! I'm glad i do now because i've stopped blaming myself after weeks of feeling terrible !

    I agree with Miss Neonindian86. Really interested guys will make real effort, they don't make up excuses.

    My boyfriend just broke up with me after 5 months. He told me that he isn't in love with me, but they he'll never stop loving me. We hadn't seen each other in forever, so I think he lost interest because I wasn't there every day or something

    From experience, usually if a man does any of these things he's really not that into us to begin with. Live and learn. For me if I have to guess if he may be interested in me. Then he usually isn't.
