When a guy has feelings for you, there are many things he’d do unconsciously. Most times, it is out of instincts or just reflexes. But he’s there when necessary.

Signs He Is Fighting His Feelings For You

1: Sudden Overprotectiveness

Fighting his feelings is hard for him, so no matter how much he tries to fight it he can’t. The thought of protecting you when necessary, making sure you’re not around guys that give ‘googly’ eyes or guys who would look at you in a very funny way.

Simple gestures like putting his hands around your waist or shoulders, giving those guys the stink eye while you’re not looking, or getting into fights with guys who try to talk to you. This is one of the major signs he is fighting his feelings for you.

2: Awkward Moments

He shows discomfort around you, maybe talking too fast, not looking into your eyes, or even becoming a stuttering mess. Most of the time, he would not be able to make a proper sentence when you asked him a question or just during a normal conversation between the two of you.

3: Thick Tensions Between Both Of You

This can only happen if you feel the same way about him. If you both like each other or are attracted to each other, there will be moments when you might end up making out or looking at each other for longer seconds than you normally do.

If he becomes a stuttering mess after that…..there is no doubt he has feelings for you and he’s trying to fight it.

4: He Gets Frustrated

When a guy tries to fight his feelings, it gets to a point where he can’t stop thinking about you or remembering when you spoke to him or times of comfort. Or it could be when you guys are having a normal conversation, he can blurt things out. It’s clearly out of the frustration that he has been nursing. When he gets angry sometimes and blurts things like “why are you so nice?” or he could play it cool and blurt during one of the time you stare at yourself, he says things like “Beautiful” This may be out of frustration, the fact that you’re always on his mind and he can’t seem to get you out. He fights back aggressively.

5: He Tries To Stay Away From You

He avoids talking to you, avoids calls or texts, making excuses not to see you, if he sees you from a distance he takes a different direction. He makes sure he doesn’t see you or make contact with you. This is one of the major signs he’s trying to fight his feelings for you.

6:He Goes Out With Other People

It’s common among guys to try to take a girl by hooking up with other girls. For them, it’s a distraction. Something to distract them from that thought. He goes partying and talks to other girls and other people apart from you. Do other things that don’t include you or don’t remind him of you?

7: He Doesn’t Forget The Things You Tell Him

Even though he tries to get a distraction or forget you. But one thing that guys have no strength over is their feelings. So every time your voice would ring in his head, reminding him of those words.

Most of the time, he reminds you of those things even though you forget them. Even during a heated conversation. This way he’s totally fighting his feelings for you

8: He Takes Note Of Little Things About You

It may be ‘freakish’, but he’d know you better than anybody. He can tell when you’re nervous,  angry, sad, happy, or anxious, and he’d always be. He reminds people of how you are and even stands up for you when you’re there or not. This totally shows that he’s fighting his feelings for you.

In conclusion

When a guy fights his feelings for you, he’d do nice things for you, and get angry at you for doing the wrong things or hurting yourself.

He’d be there for you. You’d always trigger his hero instinct and Overprotectiveness. When he fights his feelings, he ends up hurting himself in the process and always runs back to you. The only thing you can do is keep being you and wait. In Just A Matter Of Time, He Would Be All Yours.
