I am pretty shy, but here are my signs: -smile at him across the room -make eye contact, look away, then look back -asking questions about himself, what he likes to do, why he does things. -try and catch a glimpse of him across a room or in a hall -maybe even poke him in the hallway playfully and smile.
I would say she likes you if you find that she is tries to keep the conversation going, she maintains eye contact, she 'picks' you out (meaning she will focus a majority of her attention on you - regardless if their are other guys around). She likes you if she puts her hand on your knee, shoulder, or arm (several times). Also if she does the hair flip thing or she shows the 'side' of her face or her palms/wrists are pointed towards you. As well as the head tilt to one side along with the her leg crossed toward you (with toe pointed in your direction). These are heavy signs she is interested. If she is friendly she will generally keep the conversation short, concentrate a majority of her attention on other people, she will smile (usually a small half-smile), and she will mostly do a lot of 'head nodding' in conversation. If it's quick head nods she is getting impatient and doesn't care too much about you are saying. If she repeats 'ya ya', or seems to hurry the conversation along, she isn't too interested. Sometimes girls can get an impression that a guy is not interested simply because he doesn't keep the conversation flowing, seems to more attention to ladies he knows (closer friends with), or he stands further back when you are talking to him. If he shows the side of his face a lot or seems to deter from keeping eye contacting this also shows a lady your not interested. Some guys are shy, and a little quiet, but with their body language they can still 'connect' with the girl and show they are interested in her. Body language is KEY when evaluating if someone is simply being 'nice' or is actually interested (likes you). I hope that helps you GiJoe.
Yeah it did and from that she definitely liked me but I feel as if I screw it up after I find out that she likes me. It can get frustrating because there almost in your hands then I find a way to mess it up. - 4 months ago

Don't concentrate on the fact that she likes you (it will only distract you or you will end up focusing too much on that fact) -- the key, is always to be yourself. That is why she probably liked you in the first place. - 4 months ago
Question Asker
You are exactly right that helped tremendously because when she was flirting with me I really didn't know she liked me so I was myself when I found out I tried too hard to impress her. I'll go back to being myself. - 4 months ago
This can be a tough question, because we women tend to flirt just for the fun of it. I have been guilty of flirting with someone I am not necessarily interested in before, so I understand why it can be very hard for you to tell.
In general, if she is physical with you, i.e. maybe gives you hugs a lot or touches your arm frequently, etc. then there is a chance she is interested. If all she can do is smile in your presence and she acts giddy, then there is a good chance she likes you. Feel her out, see where her eyes go. If you guys catch eyes frequently, then yet another good sign she is interested.
If you can't tell by the above, the only way to tell is for you to show her you are interested by asking her out and see how she responds. Sometimes asking is the only way of knowing...since we do make it so hard for you guys! :-)
You'll know she likes you because she would: strike up a small conversation, If she's shy, the tone of her voice might be a little higher and she might start to play with her hair (smoothing it down, twirling, flipping) or adjusting her clothes. She'll smile and laugh at your comments and jokes, she'll stare at you whenever she can , she will take notice of everything you do, and she'll never dream off while you guys might be talking.
She may also do the following:
Touch her neck Look at your lips Blushing of course Feet facing towards to you is good She may wish to dust you, removing imaginary specs from your clothing or hair .. if she's comfortable doin' that. Getting jealous when other women show an interest in you Informing you all other women are evil and up to no good lol If she shares some personal areas of her life with you.
These only SOME of the ways to know. Just study her body language and her gestures toward you. Other then that, if you wanna be even more precise and have the answer straight on... JUST ASK HER!
You can just feel it. if you don't feel it then she probably don't like you in that way. tell tale signs are: 1.very smiley around you 2.she becomes shy 3.she tries hard to get your attention 4.she looks into your eyes 5.she can't keep eye contact for long (if she is shy) 6.she sits/stand facing you with her knees 7.she looks out for you when you aren't there
With a guy I like I tend to -look at him a lot -smile at him just because -tease him in little ways like giving him a nudge then grinning at him -use opportunities for casual physical contact (like just touching him on the arm when walking past) -pay more attention to him than anyone else in the room -find excuses to be wherever he is -move as close to him as possible without crossing that 'line
Having just had the most ridiculous interaction with a guy, I'm probably a LITTLE bitter at the moment, but, if it was me trying to tell you I was interested. -paying more attention to you than the people around you -being nicer to you than the people around you -lots and lots of 'casual' physical contact
Also if, around a large group of people, the girl follows you out in the rain to get you alone and ask you if you want to go see a movie sometime, this might be a sign she's interested. (Evidently, this guy I like missed all of this, thought the movie thing was just friendly, and realized like 10 minutes down the road what it meant. )
LOL. The cluelessness of guys is crazy isn't it? ;-) - 4 months ago
Answerer
Yeah. I would think it was cute, except he's not interested in anything other than friendship. So it crossed over into depressing. - 4 months ago
Question Asker
Do you think it was a good idea the comment I left on glowgirl3 comment box about the girl? - 4 months ago
Answerer
Dunno. But it'd be worth a try - even if it doesn't work, it's not going to result in her coming after you with blunt objects (or, if it does, you dodged a bullet anyway). :P - 4 months ago
Girls throw out a bunch of "signs" but you guys are usually clueless to them. LOL. Does she smile at you all the time? Does she glance your way or stare. Does she laugh at your jokes (even when you know they're not funny). Basically, if a girl likes you, she'll hang around you. We try to stay away from the guys we don't like. Now if she's shy (like myself) she could glance your way, then turn away but trust me, within five minutes, that chica will be staring again!
Other signs include:
Nervousness Playing with hair (i. E. Twirling or flipping a lot) Crossing and uncrossing legs Whispering to friends/friends staring at you
Its kind of funny because at work I liked this girl and ended up talking to a girl that knows her and I'm starting to like her more than the girl I originally wanted to date. Here are the signs she is giving me pulled by the arm to show me something, standing real close to me, and when I say something she seems as if she blocks everything out around her. Proms a month away should I ask her on a date first or to prom? - 4 months ago
Answerer
Definitely ask her! If she's giving you he undivided attention like that all signs point to her liking you. Let me know how it goes and good luck! :) - 4 months ago
Question Asker
Do you think this was a good idea I basically went into work today and cashed my check. I really didn't need the money that day but, I knew she was working. We talked a little and I said to her that there is another girl that I'm starting to like and she works hear also. She probably has no idea I'm talking about her lol. I told her I would talk to her next week at work about this girl (her). I was going to say things like this girl is friendly, beautiful, etc. And then finally tell her. - 4 months ago
Answerer
Why are you waiting until next week? Go up there and say something like "The girl I like is beautiful inside and out. That girl is you." Of course spruce it up a little but you get the idea. You don't want some other guy to snatch up the girl that you like! Plus, if she does like you and you just told her that you like another girl at work she's going to be bummed now because she thinks its some other girl and not her so ease her frustrations. Good luck! - 4 months ago
Question Asker
Ok so I should go in today even though I don't have work and tell her maybe on her break that it is her that I like. She is going to her prom with another guy but not dating I'm pretty sure. I was going to ask her to my prom. I thought if I let her think about it for a while it was good, please answer soon! - 4 months ago
Answerer
DEFINITELY Go in and ask her on her break. Tell her that you respect her and that if she needs some time you'll give her time. You really don't have anything to lose. Now I have a question for you: How long does it take you guys to get over a crush? I've liked this guy for awhile (he makes me extremely shy) but I'm scared that he doesn't like me anymore (I found out he liked me through his bro). Any suggestions? :) - 4 months ago
Question Asker
Well a crush can be anywhere from a week or so to a few years. It really just depends on the guy and the girl at the time that he likes and if he stumbles across another girl that interest me. The best advice I would say is if he acts like he wants your attention or is always trying to be around you or in the general area he probably likes you. Does he act similar to when you knew he had a crush on you? When did you find out through his friend or brother very important? Which one? - 4 months ago
Answerer
I found out through his brother. Does that make a difference? Good luck with your girl! ;-) - 4 months ago
Question Asker
Now if it was a friend it probably would be true because I tell my friends all time who I have a crush on and how it is going. Now brother well I have a brother and it could be the truth but, sometimes brothers tend to be brothers if you know what I mean. - 4 months ago
Here's the huge dilemma. Most girls are very flirtatious and act the very same way, (ie. Smiling a lot, laughing, and physical contact) around all guys, so that doesn't help us at all. The huge mystery is that all girls are not going to show signs that they like a guy either until a guy makes a move at least. The fact is that MOST girls are much more insecure than us and won't show any real signs of liking a guy until she has a clue first. That's it really, you have to throw yourself out there and see how she responds. That's the only way to tell really. Reading signals doesn't help diddily squat in my opinion because 90% of the time we guys will be wrong.
Obvious clues are that she wants to go out of her way to hang out with you. That is the only true sign that I have seen that a girl shows any kind of true interest in a guy.
Thought I add a guy's perspective. Maybe I am not the best person to provide this perspective since in the past I have been "blinded" to many signals. However, I agreed with the ladies. All in all. You got nothing to lose when you try. Of course, I would suggest asking for the first date if you are really interested in that girl. If all goes well, she will definitely be your date for prom. If things don't work out, you are still ok. Just make sure you build goodwill with her and her friends. Either way, sounds like she is interested at least to a small extend. So go for it!
I read an article somewhere about how signals that women feel are blindingly obvious can be completely missed by guys. Our brains just process stuff like that differently. So my guess would be that if a guy feels like she's sending signals, she's probably done everything except hit him with a 2x4. ;P - 4 months ago
