19 Signs Your Crush Likes Someone else ...

19 Signs Your Crush Likes Someone else ...
By Melanie • Jun 18, 2022 MD

Mainly, I base my blogs on girls and girl products. However, I understand that guys, just like girls, are always in need of advice, especially when it comes to the dating life. This blog is mainly aimed at teenagers, however, this will work for adults as well…

So, girls (and guys), why should you waste your time on someone when they like someone else? We know, you may think he is Prince Charming or The Most Beautiful Girl Ever and you two are meant to be together, but if your crush likes someone else, then you may want to think twice about what you are doing as you do not need to deal with heartache over someone that is “just not that into you.”

Oh, did you just say that you do not know if he or she likes someone else?

1. Look This Way...

Look This Way... When you are in school and you come across your crush walking in the hallway, what is he/she doing? Are they looking at another person past you? If he/she is looking at you, then this is a good sign. However, if they do not even notice you are in the world and is looking at someone else at that moment, then that is a bad sign.

Thinking...

Please leave your email and we’ll get back to you on that.

2. Talk the Talk

Talk the Talk Does your crush ever stare at you as you are in class? If he/she does not talk to you when they sit next to you in class and they talk to the other guy/girl next to them, then this is also another sign that they are not into you like you are into them.

3. Paying Attention

Paying Attention Does your crush pay you any attention at all? When a crush does not pay attention to you, then this is definitely not a good sign. Especially if they are paying attention to someone else.

4. Talks about a Girlfriend

Talks about a Girlfriend Does the crush talk about their girlfriend or boyfriend a lot? This is also a sign that they like someone else.

***

Talking about their significant other frequently can be a clear indication that your crush has feelings for someone else. It could also mean that they are in a committed relationship and not available. Pay attention to how they talk about their partner - if they seem happy and content, it's likely that they are not looking for someone else. However, if they mention any issues or seem distant when talking about their relationship, it could be a sign that they are not fully invested and may have feelings for someone else. Keep an eye out for any other signs that may confirm your suspicions.

Thinking...

If you're looking to engage your partner in intriguing conversations, why not try some hypothetical questions for couples? These fun queries will not only keep the conversation lively but also stimulate deep thoughts and potentially reveal insights about each other's personality and thought processes.

5. Ignores You

Ignores You Does your crush know you like them, but still stays away from you with someone else? Again, this is no good.

Thinking...

Please leave your email and we’ll get back to you on that.

6. Appearance

Appearance Is he or she starting to put a lot of time into their outer appearance, but you can tell that it is for someone else. (on this one, you can just tell).

Thinking...

Please leave your email and we’ll get back to you on that.

7. Who They Hang out with...

Who They Hang out with... Do they hang out with the other person at all times of the day in school? This include class, lunch and before school.

Thinking...

Please leave your email and we’ll get back to you on that.

8. Not a Family Member...

Not a Family Member... Have you seen your crush with someone else in public and you know for a fact that the “someone else” was not a family member?

***

It can be difficult to tell if your crush is interested in someone else or not. If you have seen them with someone else in public, it can be a sign that your crush likes someone else. However, it is important to remember that the other person could be a friend, a colleague or a family member. It is important to be aware of your own feelings and to take the time to understand the situation before you jump to any conclusions. It is also important to remember that it is okay to feel disappointed if your crush likes someone else, but it is important to take care of your own mental health and to focus on yourself.

Thinking...

Please leave your email and we’ll get back to you on that.

9. Time to Move on

Time to Move on Have you asked your crush out, but they told you no? If so, then obviously, you should just move on and stop waiting around. If it happens in the future, then it happens.

***

If so, then obviously, you should just move on and stop waiting around. If it happens in the future, then it happens. But remember, you deserve someone who is just as eager about you as you are about them. Holding onto false hopes might prevent you from seeing potential connections with others. Focus on boosting your self-worth and engage in activities that bring you joy. Surround yourself with supportive friends and embrace new opportunities. Life is too short to linger on unreciprocated feelings. Instead, channel your energy into finding someone who truly appreciates you and intensify your focus on self-growth.

Thinking...

Please leave your email and we’ll get back to you on that.

10. Looking for Someone else

Looking for Someone else When you are in public hanging out with your crush, are they constantly looking behind their back as if they are looking for someone else other than you?

***

When you are in public hanging out with your crush, are they constantly looking behind their back as if they are looking for someone else other than you? This could be a clear indicator that their attention is divided and they may have someone else in mind. It's important to note their body language and eye contact; if they seem distracted or more interested in scanning the environment, it might be a sign that you are not their primary focus. Trust your instincts and observe whether their behavior consistently indicates that they are more interested in someone else.

Thinking...

Please leave your email and we’ll get back to you on that.

11. Avoiding You

Avoiding You Do they constantly avoid your calls, but does not avoid your friends calls?

Thinking...

Please leave your email and we’ll get back to you on that.

12. Hiding a Secret

Hiding a Secret Does he/she sound like they are hiding a secret when you are spending time together? This will include stuttering a lot when they normally would not.

***

Sometimes, you might notice their eyes darting away when certain topics come up, or they become especially evasive about plans and people in their life. Pay attention to whether they're quick to change the subject or include vague details when asked about who they've been spending time with. This could be a sign that your crush is trying to keep their interactions with someone else under wraps, and the ambiguity is their way of keeping you in the dark while they nurture another potential romance.

Thinking...

Please leave your email and we’ll get back to you on that.

13. Feelings

Feelings Sometimes, you can just “feel” it when your crush likes someone else. Do you feel as if your crush likes someone? Well, you can pay attention to all of those signs above, but the one true way to really know if he/she likes someone else would simply be to ask them.

Thinking...

Please leave your email and we’ll get back to you on that.

14. Just Friends…

Just Friends… Is your crush one of your good friends and has told people on many occasions that you’re, “Just Friends”? Chances are he is into someone else and doesn’t want to ruin the friendship you already have.

***

Hearing those two words can be like a mini heartbreak every single time. It's important to remember that friendship is a precious bond, and sometimes that's all it can be. Don't let yourself be strung along by a thread of false hope. If he's gushing about someone else or changing the topic when you're getting a bit too close, it's a sign to protect your heart. Be brave and look for love where it's given freely, not just where you wish it would be.

Thinking...

Please leave your email and we’ll get back to you on that.

15. Like Family

Like Family Do you watch the ABC Family show, “Twisted”? Well Tyler recently asked Danny if he and Jo were an item, so Danny said they weren’t and that Jo was like a sister to him. Oh, what a blow to sweet Jo’s heart that was! Jo had a crush on Danny and really thought there could be something between them, but when she heard him say she was like a sister, she knew it was time to move on!

Thinking...

Please leave your email and we’ll get back to you on that.

16. Asks You for Dating Advice

Asks You for Dating Advice This can either go two ways, he may ask you for dating advice because he likes someone else, or he likes you. If you’ve already seen some of these other signs that he likes another girl, then he is probably asking you about her. On the other hand, if you don’t see any of these signs, he may be asking you dating advice so he can get to know more about you!

Thinking...

Please leave your email and we’ll get back to you on that.

17. He Suddenly Has New Interests…

He Suddenly Has New Interests… Didn’t he just say he hates country music and now he’s asking you to keep Luke Bryan on the radio? If your crush suddenly has new interests that he used to put down or never talked about before, signs are he likes someone else who enjoys these interests as well.

Thinking...

Please leave your email and we’ll get back to you on that.

18. Texts or Talks on the Phone More

Texts or Talks on the Phone More Is his phone constantly buzzing from all of the text messages or phone calls he’s been receiving lately? If he isn’t usually the type to text or talk on the phone all day and is now, well you might want to look for a new crush!

Thinking...

Please leave your email and we’ll get back to you on that.

19. He Gets Jealous

He Gets Jealous If your crush starts saying things like, “Why is she with him?” or “She can do so much better!”, it’s a sure sign that he is jealous and really likes this girl. That being said, if you still want to give it a try, give him some time to get over her before you let him know how you feel.

Alright, girls and guys, I just gave you nineteen signs to watch to know if your crush likes someone else. If you find that your crush does like some other person, then you should just move on.

However, if the two of you are dating, then you do need to make sure it is the fact that they like someone else and is not just something bothering them (not pertaining to you).

Also, when you hear rumors, you should know that school relationships are harsh as there are many that will try to break the two of you up. Do not go off of the deep end over those rumors until you have spoken to your crush about them (or in some cases, have let them get to know you better). It’s a tough world out there and you will go through some heartaches, so don’t let this get you down.

There will always be someone great out there waiting for you …

    I'm completely weirded out. There is this guy in my lecture and he completely blows hot and cold. He says hi to me one day, then when I smile at him the next he just compeltely ignores me, and looks down, and starts fiddling with his hair. Then when we sit in lectures, he glances at me all the time. sometimes he looks down and walks past me, when I'm sitting and working, but he stops just before the door, and turns around and starts staring at me. When he looks at me, and I look back, we hold a glance for a long time, then he quickly looks down. I don't understand him AT ALL. I'm figuring I'm just going to give up on him, and stop wasting my time. Because al lthis almost shy- ignoring, then saying hi is making me feel all mixed up! Oh, and his friends make me feel SO uncomfartable with there weird staring. Just incredibly weirded out.

    Hi. I am 12 and next school year will be in 7th grade. So I used to like this guy who was in all my classes and during them i caught him staring and I just assumed he wanted someone else's attention, but I was wrong. During 7th period a couple weeks back he just started talking to me as if we were the only ones in class, and rumors started spreading that he liked me a lot, but he left for summer break early so he didn't know. What do I do because now he is like a brother to me and I finally got over him.

    Hi I really need some advice. There's this guy who I've known for over 3 years now as we go to the same school. We're also in the same class. That started off okay when we first met and it all just seemed normal; two kids getting to know each other becoming friends. Well almost as soon as we first spoke I started to like him. A lot. Like more than I've ever liked a guy. And anyway those feeling just got stronger and three years later I'm absolutely crazy about him. We do talk quite a bit at school, and flirt I guess, but I've never been able to tell him how I feel. I mean I'm sure he just thinks of me as one of them girl-friends who you can flirt with and nothing more, but I have really deeply fallen for him and I'm scared. I spend most of the school day either staring at or daydreaming about him- even so that my grades are slipping. Sometimes he's caught me staring and that brief second where our eyes meet is always the highlight of my day, but I know that if he did know how I felt we could never be friends again, and I couldn't bare it if things became awkward between us. Even though things are already awkward for me. I try soo hard to talk to him whenever I can but he's always with his guy friends and usually there's a girl he's busy flirting with. I know the best thing to do would be to move on because he's just another "player" as some might call him. Don't get me wrong I've tried moving on; there's this guy in the year above who I kinda like (who is definitely a player but I still like, weird) and my friends are always telling me to move on because he's not worth it and doesn't care about my feelings- which I know is true but somehow, it's like I only like this 2nd guy when the first one isn't around, like in a comforting kinda way. But this guy means nothing in the way that the first guy does (the one in my class). I just don't know what to do because if he knew how I felt...I wouldn't be able to face him again and our friendship would be over. I've actually tried talking to him online before thinking it would give me courage but it doesn't.. And he usually gives really dull one word answers that make me feel unimportant. This always makes me angry and depressed at the same time that I just burst into tears. But like I've said, it's physically and mentally impossible for me to move. I'm lost. What should I do? Please help..
