Q: Is this Chinese guy interested in me?

The first post said I'm not really American. Well in fact I most certainly am. 

 

I'm from the US and have been living in Beijing for almost two years.

 

In my first year I met a Chinese guy in my office who made himself known to me. We clicked quickly and he would stare a lot and we would make eye contact. He was shy but he always managed to come over to make conversation with me. 

 

After a year he moved offices with the same company and lived in another Asian country. The week before he left he asked me what my plans are for the future. Seemed very keen to know my plans. 

 

We kept in touch and he said I can visit him. I went to visit him six months ago. I told him that I was interested in him. He was so surprised. He asked why I liked him. He said I'm Asian why? I said that I liked being with him,,,he was so shocked he didn't say much.  He's fairly traditional yet he has lived in the states himself. I don't think he thought I would be serious about him. 

 

When I got back I didn't hear from him. So I decided to kind of move on...six months later (last week) and he's now following me on a social networking site.

 

What I don't understand is why now all of a sudden? I know he's due to be back in China soon so is this a way of him saying hi. 

 

Is he interested in me?

Come on, fess up. You're not really from the U.S., now are you...

Traveler:

Gosh. It almost tricked me into believing it.

 

Maybe it's a Chinese guy fantasising about an American woman he can never have.

MissA:

This seems legit enough to me - we've had questions here before from confused western girls who don't know if reticence equals disinterest on the part of their Chinese guy friends.

 

Being anonymous never helps matters, though.

You're from the USA and you can't tell. Is this your first almost a romance?

Sorry to say but either you aren't a woman from the US or you are and your writing style resembles that of a jealous lovestruck Chinese boy. If the later is the case, I suggest being more direct. That's pretty basic stuff, and something we would all expect an American woman to know.

  I don't really see any reason to assume you're Chinese, but I do wonder how old you are. I mean, no offense, but what the hell are you asking a bunch of strangers on the internet whether some guy they've never met likes some girl they don't know? How the hell should we know if he likes you?

"He asked why I like him" Yeah he's definitely not attracted to you I'm telling you right now. No, guy I know would say that to someone they are really attracted to. 

Amonk:

He might if he's an egomaniacal narcissist.

I actually initially read that differently, as the subtext being "I thought western woman didn't go for Chinese guys"
