1. He Gets Jealous of You with Other Guys
This can only really be detected if he is one of your friends already. But if that's the case, it may mean that he likes you if he finds it hard to watch you with other guys.
2. He Blushes when He's Teased about You
If you have mutual friends that can "see" what's happening, and like to tease, you can use this to your advantage and see if he blushes when they tease him about you, or tease you about him in front of him. Instead of hushing them, let them tease! It just may be your key to knowledge!
Blushing is a natural reaction that is hard to control and often signifies attraction or emotional connection. If your crush's cheeks turn a shade of pink every time his friends make a playful comment about the two of you, it's a clear sign he harbors feelings deep down. Keep an eye out for those spontaneous moments of flushed cheeks – it’s like a silent confession of his fondness for you without saying a word. Embrace the light-hearted teasing; after all, friends only nudge when they notice a spark worth mentioning.

3. He Attempts Conversation
Has he found a moment to attempt to talk to you? Bumped your books so he'd have the opportunity to pick them up and smile at you? He just might like you!
Has he found a moment to attempt to talk to you? Bumped your books so he'd have the opportunity to pick them up and smile at you? He just might like you! Subtle yet intentional actions like these can be a way of catching your attention. Sometimes, he may start a casual conversation about something trivial just to be near you. Or, he might go out of his way to comment on something he noticed about you, like a new hairstyle or an accessory. Creating opportunities for interaction is often a telltale sign that he’s interested and wants to get to know you better.
4. He Laughs with You - He Cries with You
Even when you tell a corny joke, he laughs. When you're having a bad day, he senses it and tries to help make you feel better. These are sure ways to test a guys feelings for you, since guys aren't good with feelings.
His laughter isn't just an empty sound; it’s a melody that resonates with your own happiness. And when tears threaten to spill from your eyes, he doesn’t shy away. Instead, he becomes a shoulder to lean on, a testament to his genuine concern for your wellbeing. This emotional connection might not just mean he’s a good friend; rather, it suggests a deeper bond. When a guy is willing to ride the emotional roller-coaster with you, it’s often because he truly cares and yearns to be a part of your life through thick and thin.
5. He's Nice to You
While you may think it silly, him just walking up and giving you a piece of candy or something may be his way of saying he likes you. As I said before, guys have a harder time expressing their feelings than we girls do. For us, it is as simple as a smile, a hug, an "I like you" thing, but guys struggle just saying that. Be patient with your boy - they all have to be trained a bit by us women - they can't help it!

6. He Stays Close
Do you ever feel like he's following you because he "happens to be in the same room at the same time" or he "happens to have to come and pick up the ball that he 'accidentally' kicked your way at lunch break?" You probably have a mutual crusher!
When a guy finds subtle ways to be near you, it's often no coincidence. This is a classic move for someone who is crushing hard but trying to play it cool. They might volunteer for projects you're on or offer to walk you to your next class, using these small moments to steal some time with you. It's both endearing and a bit obvious—yet entirely sweet. If you notice this pattern of "serendipitous" encounters happening more than once, it's a good bet he's into you.
7. You're the First Person He Notices
At lunch, in the hall, in the classroom, if you're the first girl he notices and acknowledges, he probably thinks of you as more than a "friend" What do you think about that?
His eyes seem to automatically seek you out, and that's a big telltale sign. When a guy is into you, you become the highlight of the room for him. It's like a natural radar zeroes in on your presence. And if he goes out of his way to say "hi" or flash you that heart-melting smile, then it's pretty clear he's got you on his mind. It might be time to definitely consider that those accidental meetings are not so accidental after all.
8. He Shares Random Info
If your crush is really into you, he's gonna share more about himself than school stuff. He's gonna tell you about his life and what he want to do later in life. He's gonna be open with you about crazy random things - get used to it - guys are random until they die.
Expect your phone to buzz with texts about his dog's latest antics or how he's super into a new band that's just not on anyone's radar yet. Trust me, when he's sharing that his family goes to watch hot air balloons every year without fail, it's not because he thinks you're into giant floating baskets—it's because he's letting you into his world. And chances are, he's hoping you'll find his quirks as endearing as he's starting to find yours. Remember, if he's opening up, he's probably hoping for that connection.
9. He Defends You
If a guy likes you, he'll stand up in your defense no matter who it's against. He'll look mad if you're getting teased too much, and he may even stand up for you against a teacher. If that boy is willing to go to the principle's office for you, he's definitely crushing on you!
Certainly, when he sees you're in a jam, his protective instincts kick in like a knight in modern-day armor. Be it a friend who's taken a joke a bit far or a situation that's spiraled out of hand, he wants to ensure you're safe and sound. And it's not about grand gestures; sometimes it's the subtle reassurance—like interjecting when the conversation turns sour or simply shooting you that 'I've got your back' glance across the room. If the going gets tough, and he's still there, staunch and supportive, that's a telltale heart ticking just for you.
10. He Compliments You
If he's always telling you that you look good (or hot) and that you smell nice - that he loves your outfit, or likes what you done with your hair, he likes you. Guys notice the way that a girl dresses and looks only if they are attracted to that girl in some way. So, compliments are never a bad thing! (Even if your head does swell a bit over it!)
