How to tell if he likes you, likes you

We all agree that it’s totally frustrating when you can’t tell if your crush likes you back. I mean, is he that friendly to everybody? Or just you? Was that smile an “I like you smile,” or just a smile? It would be so much easier if we were all like Edward Cullen and could read minds, but of course we can’t. Instead, we have to watch for little clues to see what is on our cutie’s mind. So here are a few things to look out for that might help you figure things out:
 

Poppin’ up

Does your cutie wait for you after class or steal the seat next to you at lunch? It might mean something if he always wants to be with you. Nobody would want to hang out with someone they don’t like.
 

Focus

When a guy is interested in you, he will listen to what you have to say. Does he look you in the eyes? Eye contact is a sign that he is paying attention. Also, don’t be surprised if he brings up little things from a your convo a few days later, like your fave band. 
 

Body language

You can tell a lot by a guy’s body language. Check to see if he is leaning towards you, and the directions of his hands and feet. If a he’s into you, he will lean in and his body (especially knees and hands) will be facing towards you.
 

Getting personal

Think about what you talk about. Things like homework are great convo starters, but he will want to share part of himself with you. Have you discussed things like your dreams? Friend problems? Talking about serious, but not overly personal, stuff can show you how he views you. You wouldn’t talk about this stuff with just anybody, only people you trust.
 

Keeping contact

Keep an eye out in case he touches you because he will want to keep you close. Look out for when he lets his hands graze yours when walking in the hallway, touches your lower back or playfully nudges you.

I have a boyfriend who goes to a different school, but I have a guy friend at my school who I think likes me. I know that he used to like me, but I think he still does. I have a tendency to flirt a bit when I talk to my guy friends, and I don't want to lead him on. How can I still be nice without leading him on?

 

 

Hey babe,

When it comes to guy friends it's important to set boundaries, especially if you don't want to lead him on. Try not to hang out one on one, instead make sure you're with a group of friends that way he doesn't assume anything about the situation. If you're super close talking to him about it might help you destroy any weird tension. You friendship is more important than his confusion over the feelings between you two, right? xoxo

so i like this guy but im not sure if he (still) likes me? I will start from the beginning.I met him when i was on a trip to my states capitol and from there i gave him my number(he asked for it). it was two weeks before i heard from him. he texted me and asked if i wanted to do something over the weekend. so we ended up going to the movies together(he lives in a city about 15-30 min.from mine)and i thought it went pretty well. he didnt hold my hand or hug me or anything though. after the movie his parents gave me a ride home and he met my dad quickly at the door of my house. he basically said he would take me out again(he said something of taking me out a second time, like dinner and a movie) and i havent heard from him since. it has been a few days over two weeks since the date. i texted him this saturday and asked how he was lately but he never replied.sometimes my phone is stupid and doesnt send texts, but its equally possible he just didnt reply.please, what do i do??




Hey girl, I'd let him reach out to you for now. It's his turn to communicate since you texted. He may not be interested, but if he is, I promise you he will talk to you again sooner or later. He got a first date with you and said he wanted a second; guys like that don't leave girls hanging forever. Hang in there and keep your mind focused on other things in the meantime.

xoxo

I met this guy back in august at band camp & we hit it off pretty well. I gave him my number and he gave me his because we barely see each other outside of band. I started to really like him, until I saw him holding hands with another girl after practice one day. I didn't text him for two days & that friday at our evening practice he kept trying to get my attention by turning around, calling my name & smiling/waving. Then he did the same thing at our football game the next day during halftime, while we were on the field...turns out him & the girl are only friends, as I found out from one of his friends. I told him that I liked him a week later & he never responded, but we kept talking & still talk like nothing happened. Then the other day at practice he walked past me and said hey and good morning to me and smiled. does this mean anything? does he like me?




Hey girl, I don't think he likes you, likes you, but I think he likes you as a friend. I think what he's trying to do is ignore your confession so you guys can stick to being friends. That said, people are more than their actions. I'd continue being friendly to him and assume for the time being he isn't interested like that unless he says otherwise. He knows how you feel so if he likes you too, he'll make it known. Sorry I don't have better news, girl!

Today has been like the worst day of my life! Ok so I have a ton of crushes and my friends know the guys I like. Today my friend Grace told me she found a note between me and one of my friends about who I liked ( the most popular guy in school who had a GF) well that note was basically grace and my conversation earlier. The note was fake because I don't even have that class but then the teacher took it from her and said she was going to give it to the guy because his name was on it. Then Grace kept changing her story of who wrote it! The guy looked at me as he was walking out of the cafeteria. And got begun my friends am I in the line. But I only have one class with him and I use my Spanish name in there and I'm new to the school. Grace told me e asked her who I was and she told him where my locker was. Apparently now the whole school knows I like him! Do you think Grace wrote the note and what should I say to the guy( I've never talked to him)?




Nobody really knows who wrote the note. Maybe you should talk to Grace about it. As for the guy, just ignore him, he may not even know what's going on. I'm sorry it's been such a bad idea, I'm sure things will turn out.

so theres this guy. i don't have a crush on him, though. we have every class together and go on the same bus, so hes basically with me the whole day. i keep on catching him looking at me instead of paying attention to the lesson, and sometimes he sits with me on the bus even when his two friends are sitting alone. i don't even know him that well, but because of us having all our classes together, he probably got to know me better based on what i did in class, or what ever happened. i think he likes me, but it might just be me being impulsive. what do you think?

 

Hey soccacheer, yeah sounds like he likes ya to me. He's always sitting and talking with you every chance he gets, sounds like a crush to me. Xoxo
