1. You Run into Him Everywhere
I mean, everywhere. Outside your class after English Comp. At the grocery store. At the coffee shop. At Home Depot. At the mall, where you work. If you’re seeing him everywhere, he may be trying to make YOU notice HIM. Yup, he's got a crush. Smile a little. It will drive him crazy.
2. He Makes Sweet Gestures
Little gestures can mean a whole lot. If he's leaving you notes on the windshield wiper of your car, meeting you at your locker after class, or just trying his best not to be nervous around you, yeah, he likes you.
***
These sweet gestures are not just limited to notes and meeting you after class. He may also go out of his way to do small things for you, like getting you a coffee or offering to carry your books. These thoughtful actions show that he is thinking about you and wants to make you happy. Additionally, he may also show signs of nervousness, such as fidgeting or blushing, when he is around you. These are all clear indicators that he has a crush on you and is trying to show it in his own way.
3. You Catch His Eye - a Lot
This means he’s looking at you a lot. The next time you catch him looking, smile. He’ll probably either smile back, or blush a little because he got caught.
***
Another way to tell if a guy is crushing on you is if he goes out of his way to be near you or talk to you. This could mean choosing a seat next to you in class or joining a group conversation you're a part of. Additionally, pay attention to his body language. If he leans in towards you, makes eye contact, or mirrors your movements, these are all signs that he's interested in you. He may also try to impress you by showing off his talents or knowledge. These are all subtle yet telling signs that he's crushing on you.
4. He Compliments You - a Lot
He tells you that you have the prettiest smile, the shiniest hair, the nicest smile, he loves that skirt. If he pays you a lot of sincere compliments, that’s another sign he likes you.
***
It's not just compliments on your looks, either. He'll notice and appreciate your quirks, the way you laugh, and how you light up when talking about your passions. Whether it’s your sense of humor or the way you handled a tough situation, he's paying attention. His compliments are deep and meaningful, showing he’s really tuned into who you are. When he sees the best in you, even in moments you might not notice yourself, it’s a sure sign he’s got his sights set on you.
5. His Friends Know Your Name
If his friends all know your name, that means he’s been talking about you, especially if his friends aren’t in your own circle of friends. If he’s talking to his friends about you, he almost certainly likes you.

6. He Asks Questions
He wants to know your opinion, your likes, your dislikes. If he asks a lot of questions, rather than just talking about himself, that means he wants to get to know you better and that he likes you.
7. He Remembers Details
Asking you questions is a good sign but what's even better is when he remembers everything you said. He's already shown that he has a genuine interest in you but you'll get further confirmation of this if he remembers all the little things you tell him like the name of your first pet, your favorite color, etc.!
8. He Comments on Your Facebook/Twitter - a Lot
If he follows you on Twitter or always leaves a comment on your status on your wall, he likes you, and he’s not afraid who else knows it.
9. He Invites You to His Game
If a guy likes you, he’ll want to show off. If he’s in a band, he’ll invite you to a show. If he plays sports, he’ll ask you to his game. Cheer the loudest and he’s yours.
***
He's not just showing off his skills; he's also testing the waters to see if you're interested in his hobbies. Remember, guys often communicate their affection through actions rather than words, so his inviting you is a big step. Whether he's on the field or strumming a guitar on stage, your presence means a lot. And if you're equally enthusiastic about his passions, it further fuels his attraction. Don't be surprised if he glances over to see your reaction during the pivotal moments. Your support could be the sweetest victory of all for him.
10. He Makes an Effort with Your Friends
If he takes the time and effort to chat with your best friend, he’s probably just trying to find out more about YOU. Perfect! You can always find out exactly what he said later. What else are BFFs for?
***
A guy who digs you wants to ingratiate himself with the people you care most about. After all, your tribe is a reflection of you, and he's keen to show that he can jive with your inner circle. When he's asking your friends about their interests or recalling little details from previous conversations, it's a subtle sign that he values your world. Bonus points: He remembers your friends' birthdays or special occasions, proving he's invested in maintaining those friendships, just to see you smile. Trust us, he's not doing that for everyone.
11. His Body Language
Body language can tell you everything that you need to know. If you notice that he mimics your own body language, it means he’s trying to connect and is completely focused on you! Other things to look out for is if he maintains eye contact and leans in whenever he's talking to you. That shows that's super comfortable around you and feels safe with you!
12. He Makes Physical Contact
One of the most obvious signs that a guy is into you is if he tries to make physical contact! This could mean pulling you in for a hug every time he sees you, putting his arm around you, or trying to hold your hand when walking down the street or school hallway! He clearly wants people to know that he's interested in you!
***
Physical contact is a clear indication that a guy is interested in you. It shows that he wants to be close to you and is comfortable with physical intimacy. This could also include small gestures like brushing your hair out of your face or playfully nudging you. Additionally, studies have shown that physical touch can release oxytocin, the "love hormone," making him feel more connected to you. So if he's constantly finding ways to touch you, it's a sure sign that he has feelings for you. However, it's important to note that consent is always necessary before any physical contact.
13. He Finds Common Interest
If a guy is really into you, he'll make it his duty to find common ground with you. Having the same classes isn't enough, he'll try to connect with you on different levels! This could mean that he'll finally start listening to that band you love or watch that rom-com he swore he'd never watch. Whatever it takes to spark up conversation!
14. He Asks You out
BINGO! This is the best way to tell if a guy is interested. Why else would a guy ask you out? And if he is too shy to make the first move, go ahead! You can do the asking. If he does like you, and you like him, enjoy the thrill of the chase. Sit back, relax, and flirt a little. It’s just a matter of time.
Are there any other ways to tell if a guy is interested? Please, let me know!

No we're not together i'll let you know when that happens cuz i will be surprised. lol but how do you know if the guy just doesnt like you for your body like i dont think he does i mean he tells me i look great and that i have so much control over him and he said he lliked my smile, he called me beautiful and we have our deep conversations about his life (im more of an introvert and keep things to myself more which is bad i kno but i've been practicing letting things out one at a time so we dont have deep convos about me) but i guess i feel like hes like me for my physical appearance but that can't be right b/c he said he appreciate me being there for him and he really thanks me for that but idk. i'm probably overreacting. blahblah Ignoring my 1st question i had another one He gives me pet names (now i dnt rlly say pet names n that stuff b/c im nt use to that and it sounds werid comin 4rm me so yeah) but is it ok 4 him to call me things like baby and stuff when we're nt even together or whatever it is we're doing. Being 17 has 2 many problems. Ok thanks guys for listening to me ramble. Thanks again:0
Klassy: ummm, i'm pretty much hitting the jackpot with the signs: he looks at me, smiles at me and i seem to bump into him everywhere... although i don't think that's on purpose... I do like him but he's a very introverted person towards me, we've had some time alone b4 but he never seems 2 talk 2 me the way he talks 2 some of my friends... is he getting nervous?? or does he just not want 2 talk 2 me?? Also i heard he is a bit of a player... i've seen him flirt with other girls b4, he use 2 do that with me over text messages but now he doesn't, he just stays very quiet. what does this mean?? how can i show him that i like him without scaring him away?? I'm not a very good flirt or conversation starter either... actually i pretty much suck at it :( any interesting light hearted topics that i could talk about?? thank u so much 4 ur help xx
SqueeGee: Theres this guy I know at school and i have a crush on him.We are friends but I never really talked to him in person.I try to but I never have a good chance to!I text him and IM him but most of the time I feel weird because I usually have to talk to him first.My friends sometimes tell me when hes looking at me which is alot.Like in the library,or before school starts.But the weird thing is he says he only sees barely sees me.The only comments he realy makes to me is that Im hot.How can I find a good time to talk to him or to get him to notice me first?
lalalollipop: Hey guys! Its me lol well im giving you guys an update like you asked:) So we havent seen each other for 2 weeks and we texted but not all the time b/c he was going thru some stuff so like 5 days would pass before i heard anything from him bt i had stuff to do too so i couldn't rlly talk to him but i sent him nice txt that said have a good day or your probably tired but hope your day was good, stuff like that every once in a while. So on Thursday this week we finally talked and we were talking about what he was up too and how he was feeling before he goes i miss you. (Aww) I was like i miss you but i can deal with all the stuff un til your thru i'll just send you little nice txts and stuff that make your day. And he was like Aww well thank you sweetheart;). And i was just wondering that just means he thinks im sweet and thats his way of saying it right? But anyway so i invited him to have Thanksgiving with me and hes is, lol he was pretty excited but my mom and grandparents im sure will make it to where we can't b near each other. Grandma said lets hope he makes it out of this house alive lol. But the worst we've done was hug blah blah okey im done. Once again thanks guys:)
just: i like this guy and i think he might like me but the the thing is, he's my best friend. but he's been dropping heaps of hints that he likes me and he wrote me a really long note. in one part it said that i am a million times sweeter than his ex, and another thing he wrote is that any guy that steals my heart would be one of the luckiest guys alive. he also wrote that i have an attitude of an angel and beautiful inside-out. his friend told me he likes me but i dont know if i should believe him cause he's always teasing us and saying that kinda stuff. and he gives me really long, tight hugs and tells me how much i men to him. do you think he likes me? and should i make a move if he does?
CB: Okay well there's this boy and first both of us are with our own group of friends and he calls my name and asks me how i was doin, i turn around and smile then look back then he says i guess that means you doin fine, then he starts getting close to me every time he passes by me, one time he smiled at me, and he looks at me and i look at him, i really dont know what to do and i am so confused
