If a guy recently wanted to start a streak with you then you might be wondering why and what it might mean about the way that he feels about you.
This post will show you a number of reasons why he might have wanted to start a streak with you and why other guys might do the same in the future.
So, what does it mean when a guy wants to start a streak? It could be a sign that he is attracted to you especially if he only wants to do it with you and he shows other signs of attraction around you. It could also be that he considers you a friend, he is copying what his other friends are doing or he misses you.
There are actually a number of reasons why a guy might want to start a streak with you and there are a number of things that you can consider when trying to understand exactly why he might have asked.
Why a guy would want to start a streak
Each of the different reasons why a guy will want to start a streak with you will likely come with a number of clues in the way that he does it and the body language that he shows in person.
In the following sections, I will mention a number of reasons why a guy will want to start a streak with you, the signs to look for and the things to consider.
He is attracted to you
The reason that he wanted to start a streak with you could be that he is attracted to you.
This would be more likely if he tends to snap more sexual type things with you and if he only wanted to start a streak with you. It would also be more likely if he tends to interact with you in a different way compared to how he interacts with his other friends.
If he doesn’t snap sexual type things with you then it could still be the case that he is attracted to you. If he is attracted to you then it would be likely that he would show it in his body language and behavior when he is around you.
- Mirroring your body language
- Holding prolonged eye contact with you
- Asking you the most questions when you’re in a group together
- Standing closer to you than he normally stands to other people
- Positioning himself to be near you
- Asking your friends about you
- Talking to you with a deeper voice than he does with other people
- Becoming anxious when you’re talking to other men
- Sticking around while you are with other men
- Basing his schedule around your schedule
- Getting defensive when you are both with other men
- Watching you when you are with other men
- Staring at you then quickly looking away or smiling when you notice
- His pupils dilate when he is with you
- Sitting more upright when he notices you
- Uncrossing his arms when he notices you
- Adjusting his hair or clothing when he notices you
- Pointing his feet at you (people will often point their feet at people that they are attracted to)
- Hugging you the more and for longer than he does with his other friends
There are more signs of attraction that a guy might show around you and I have written about more of them in this blog post.
He considers you a friend
The reason that he wants to start a streak with you might be because he considers you a friend.
This would be more likely if he is also doing a streak with his other friends and if he shows the same body language around them as he does with you.
If he is also doing it with his other friends then it could still be the case that he is attracted to you. If he is then it would be likely that he would show signs of being attracted to you, in his body language, when he is around you.
He is following along with what his other friends are doing
It might be the case that he wanted to start a streak with you because it’s what everyone else seems to be doing and he is following along with everyone else.
This would be more likely if he also started a streak with other people and if his other friends were starting streaks at around the same time.
In this case, it would be likely that he would show similar body language around you as he does around other people.
He misses you
If you have not seen him for a while then he might want to do it because he misses you.
It could also be the case that he was attracted to you but it would be difficult to tell based solely on the snaps he sends you unless they are more sexual in nature. However, it would be more likely if he also asks you questions such as whether or not you are single.
Consider how he reacts upon seeing you
When trying to understand why he wanted to start a streak and how he feels about you it would help to consider how he reacts upon seeing you.
If he reacts by noticeably changing his body language then it would make it more likely that he is attracted to you depending on the way that he changes it.
So, if he reacts to seeing you by doing things such as:
- Adjusting his appearance
- Adjusting his posture
- Facing towards you (especially with his feet)
- Moving closer to you
- Having more dilated pupils
Then it would make it more likely that he is attracted to you and that he wanted to start a streak because he is attracted to you.
Consider the types of messages he sends you
It would also be helpful to think about the type of messages that he sends you.
If he tends to send you messages that are more sexual in nature then it would make it much more likely that he started a streak with you because he is attracted to you.
Whereas, if he snaps you random things about what he is doing then it would be less likely that he started a streak with you due to attraction. That is unless he shows signs of attraction when he is around you.
Consider the type of relationship you have with him
Considering the type of relationship that you have with him could also help.
If you have been friends with him for a while then it would be more likely that he either did it because he considers you a friend or because he is attracted to you.
Whereas, if you don’t know him very well then it would be more likely that he either did it due to being attracted to you or because he was following along with what everyone else seemed to be doing.
Consider how he interacts with other people
When trying to understand why he started a streak with you it would be helpful to compare the way that he interacts with you with the way that he interacts with other people.
If he also started a streak with his other friends and he shows the same body language around them as he shows around you then it would be more likely that he was doing it to be popular or because he considers you a friend.
Whereas, if he only started it with you and he changes his behavior and body language around you then it would be more likely that he is attracted to you. That is assuming that he changes it in a way that shows signs of attraction.
Look for a number of body language clues
When considering what his body language could be showing it would help to consider multiple body language signs at the same time.
The reason for this is that a single body language sign will often have many different possible meanings. This can cause single body language signs to be less reliable on their own.
Whereas, if he shows a number of body language signs that all suggest the same thing then he would be more likely to be showing them for that particular reason.
If you want to learn more about body language, a book I would recommend would be The Definitive Book of Body Language (on Amazon). It shows you how to interpret body language and understand people's true intentions.
