The story
[Translated from Spanish. Reminder: IIWIARS is English only]
Let's say I like a guy, but he always clarifies that he hasn't liked physical contact for a while. Back to the story: I was talking with a friend on a bench and I was looking at the second floor when out of nowhere he comes out with his group of friends and I was watching from there just because. Suddenly he looks at me and I pretend not to notice that I was looking at him, I change direction and then he goes down the stairs. I must admit I thought he was going with his friends down the other stairs, and well he comes down and walks kind of weird in the middle of the yard and he looks at me, I look at him, we greet each other, he stops and approaches and stays there. We have a common hobby that he taught me but let's say I liked it and perfected it. We like to play chess, I invited him and while walking to the library we played and bet that the winner would owe the other a favor. Well, he owes me a favor haha. In the end, he said, and well, we were at that moment with a friend who we'll call (Yuta) and the guy I like we'll call (Zoro). So what Zoro said was, 'Hey, since we're friends? Umm, hug?' I didn't let him finish the sentence when I jumped on him, how embarrassing, I almost knocked him over haha. And what he said was, 'I'll have to get used to it,' and Yuta said, 'First time he asks for physical contact,' and laughs. (Does he like me?)

Yo, it kind of seems like Zoro m might be into you! 🤔 If he's not usually down for physical contact but he asked you for a hug, that's a big sign. That awkward walking and stuff could just be him feeling nervous around someone he likes; I've been there too, all weird and fidgety when my crush is near haha. Keep playing chess with him, see where it goes. Sounds promising!
What a story! 😂 You’re jumping into hugs like it’s an Olympic sport, huh? Honestly, the fact that he asked for physical contact after saying he doesn’t really do that is like Sherlock-level clue material; no guarantees, but sounds like a solid win in the chemistry department. Plus, you got Yuta chiming in with some surprise? Definitely something there! Keep those chess games coming and see where it goes..
It sounds like Zoro might be warming up to the idea of being closer with you, especially if he suggested a hug. Sometimes people claim they don't like physical contact but act differently when they meet someone they're interested in. However, it's important to respect his boundaries and not push too hard for physical affection if he's not comfortable with it. Keep enjoying your time together and let things develop naturally.
I'm sorry, but this guy, Zoro, telling you he doesn't like physical contact and then asking for a hug... What the hell is that all about? 😆 Maybe he's warming up to the idea because of you or whatever; I've seen people change their minds too when they meet someone special. But damn girl! Don't jump on every little gesture thinking it's something big. Just be chill and see where it goes without overthinking everything; vibes will show themselves sooner or later if he's into you.
wow I mean zoro likes chess and he wanted a hug thats kinda sweet maybe but then again if he says hes not into touch u should be careful i guess? like sure he broke his rule but ppl can be weird like that sometimes right? hey i had a friend once who said this same stuff and came to like hugs later but took FOREVER so yeah go slow... stay respectful
i think yuta isnt too serious when laughing all these signs dont always make sense smh... its tricky
Hey, this whole situation sounds kinda confusing! I get why you'd wonder if he likes you; it’s like mixed signals central over there. Honestly though, I'm not sure his asking for a hug means he's into you romantically, considering he doesn't usually like physical contact. I've had friends who are just really awkward about showing affection but still make an effort sometimes because they care as friends. Keep an eye on other signs too and maybe talk to him about it; it'll help clear the air a bit!
Alright, so here's the deal. Zoro sounds like he's dabbling in that awkward territory of trying to navigate feelings when he's not the touchy-feely type usually. The dude asked for a hug: that's big if he normally avoids contact. But props to you for winning at chess too, that's gotta add some fun dynamic between you two. I'd say just enjoy these little moments and see where it leads, because sometimes things naturally progress without any forced drama or overthinking. A lot can be said in those informal gestures!
Damn, this situation is like a classic rom-com or something! 😂 Zoro’s behavior reminds me of how sometimes people have their own comfort zones but break them for someone special. I remember once being super awkward and avoiding physical contact too, just to find myself melting into a hug 'cause of feelings I couldn't ignore. Maybe he's not even fully aware of his growing affection for you? Keep doing what you're doing, enjoy those chess matches, and who knows, maybe you'll "checkmate" his heart eventually! 😉 Just let things unfold without rushing it.
Maybe he does like you, but just be mindful of his preference against touch.
Good point! Let things flow naturally I think.
seems like zoro is stepping out of his comfort zone for you, which can be a big deal. gotta admit, though, he might just be trying new things generally or seeing how he feels about it. i've had moments with people where i'm unsure if their gestures mean they're interested or just being friendly. maybe try subtle hints and see what happens? it's all about finding that balance without making it awkward for either of you. good luck!
Zoro asking for a hug is kinda trippy considering he said he's not into that! Maybe dude's just trying to step outta his comfort zone or something. 🤔 Honestly, don't put too much pressure on it either way; people can act hella strange when they're figuring out their own feelings. Keep playing it cool and enjoying your time together; let him get used to having you around and see what happens next';
Same happened with me!
Honestly, I'm not convinced Zoro's sudden hug request is a definite sign of romantic interest; sometimes people do weird things that don't mean much. I remember in high school this one guy always said he hated group activities but ended up joining the soccer team out of nowhere just because he wanted to try something different. Maybe it's just curiosity or him testing his comfort zone; whatever it is, take it slow and enjoy the chess games without jumping to conclusions. Give it time to see if anything changes organically.
It’s kinda intriguing that Zoro initiated contact, especially if he isn't usually into it, and maybe he's just figuring stuff out and testing the waters with you.
Zoro seems interesting, but take his boundaries seriously.
Zoro stepping out of his comfort zone for a hug? That's wild, man. It's like when you see someone who's all about boundaries suddenly doing a trust fall into a pool of emotional confusion! 😂 As someone who's been in similar shoes, sometimes we just find ourselves testing the waters without exactly knowing why. Heck, maybe he’s just vibing with the connection you got over chess or something deeper is sparking up inside him. You got him making moves he's not used to, so clearly you're doing something right there. Keep rolling with it; those genuine moments where there's no pressure but just being yourselves are what really counts.
Zoro stepping out of his comfort zone is intriguing. It makes you wonder how people's preferences can shift when emotions are involved, doesn't it??? Maybe he's drawn to the connection you both share through chess and wants to explore that deeper bond. Wouldn't it be interesting if this whole scenario is him trying to understand a side of himself he hasn't encountered before? Just keep an eye on how these subtle changes play out over your interactions!
This is so relatable lol. My bf used to say no touching at first bc he was "not comfy" haha now he's all about hugs. maybe zoro is testing out how it feels to break out of that pattern?? ya know sometimes people need a lil push without going toooo far so keep an eye on how he's reacting. just dont surprise him too much cause those moments can go south quick idk... seen it happen before lol
