-how she sits next to me (body language)
-compliments
-playing with her hair/fidgeting
-her receptivity with my humor and overall what I say
And more
The signs are pretty obvious if you know what they are. You also gotta take a look at their mannerisms as well which most guys, unfortunately, aren't aware of, and I don't blame anyone. Heck for the longest time, I had no idea either and it isn't our fault nobody taught us these things while we were growing up and just expected us to know what to do and when to do it.
If she likes you, she'll do the "look and look away" tactic on you more often, especially if she's the shy type or just doesn't want to admit her feelings to you. She'll also give you her full attention when you're the one talking and make a note of staring into your eyes while you do it, maybe even play with her hair or angle her body towards yours. If she likes you, she'll also laugh a lot around you when you're making a joke, regardless of how cheesy or lame it may be.
Most women (even if some may disagree with me on this) are not direct about their feelings. They'll see a cute guy, or they'll know one and have an obvious crush on them but will never make the first move, which always bothered me. They'll instead drop hints to make HIM notice her more in hopes that he likes her as well and asks her out instead. Like seriously, if you like the guy, just get out there and ask him out yourself! I don't know who tf made the rule that it only has to be the guy who does the asking and women asking a guy out is considered a taboo or some shit.
@ElementoP lmao yeah pretty much. It all ties into this other argument I had with this girl here on G@G who was against a question another fellow guy asked, that was why is it that girls like to say there's no one who wants to date them while in reality, there'd be a long line of guys who actually DO want to date her but she doesn't want them instead and the reason she puts on the show is because the guys she wants don't want to date her.
I won't mention her name here, but you've probably already seen her around here lol. She's guru level and as usual, she threw a hissy fit over it when I explained the question to her, instead flipping the victim card and that "you men don't deserve us and it isn't our fault that majority of us who want us have zero redeemable qualities and have zero game in texting"
Wow, every other guy answered yes. Impressive!
The traits you mentioned I learned in my twenties in Sociology and other disciplines.
Before that I was pretty helpless, I am not ashamed to admit. Well, in most cases. 🤷🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️
Different women, particularly if they suffered traumas, act differently in this regard. There is no one-size-fits-all when it comes to this. Different cultures, countries and religions have a huge impact on that as well.
But sure. Some people have a better sense for this. Kind of like what gay people call gaydar.
I’m not good with stuff like that and I have to be 200% sure. I’m somewhere between trying hard to hide it and being subtle. But I don’t know how to tell if someone else likes me or is attracted to me. Unless they say it which I can question sometimes
So far I think I do, evdn that I do debate my self, some are hard to read if there stright or not, but over all I think I did notice all that did and rarely that did not

Yes, but it took a long time for me to figure it out. From time to time I'll remember a moment from my past where someone was clearly flirting with me and I was completely blind to it lol. Basically, before the age of maybe 24, a woman had to just come right out and say she liked me or I had no clue lmao
Yeah, I'm pretty good with it by now.. I can definitely see the subtle signs when a woman likes me.. "Black" women are usually more straight forward espe when they find you very attractive.. Non "Black" women usually have more reservations.. But I can still see that they are attracted to me.. They usually do double takes or just stare from afar..
In the body language:
Pupils dilating.
Personal space, how close she stands to you.
Standing with her feet apart and her hips rotated forward. (Similar behavior in cats is called “presenting.”)
And, my personal favorite, inspired by a friend pretending to have no interest in me, nipples popping out after I hugged her.
I'm oblivious. An ex girlfriend found it cute that a cashier once flirted at me, right in front of her... And I was clueless (held my girlfriend's hand, the whole time). First time I was made aware of my oblivion... Just 2 years ago... I just turned 40. 🤣
Of course. Usually when I grab her shoulder or touch her hands when I sit next to her and she laughs and says you’re so funny. Then when I walk with her to her home and she starts running a little faster as a fun game. Then when she tries to play hard to get when I text her and tell her if I can come over. She loves me, she just doesn’t realize it yet.
I mean, I'm really obvious about it lol I will want to be near you, talk to you, etc. I'm not really shy about making my intentions known. Life is too short to waste on hesitation.
Yes, it's a subconscious feeling that I can't necessarily explain but I know it when I feel it.
When I was younger (high school, college) it was hard to tell, I blame it on the girls. Once I was in my twenties the girls made it a lot more obvious. I would say, 90% of the time I could tell.
Lots of girls are flirty and there's lots of cougars in the office that want to get their teeth into me.
However, I struggle a bit with girls I actually like.
Honestly; I have to admit that it's still a mystery to me telling when a woman seems to like me... So many ladies just play around. That's why I would like an involved woman to just be explicit.
I hate to admit it but maybe that is why I have been married 50 Years. My wife has to point them out to me. The obvious ones yes but not the subtle one. I guess I don't spot them because I am not looking for them..
If someone is attracted to me, I'll be completely oblivious to it. I just don't notice the subtle "signs" that are apparently displayed.
The few times I acted on what I thought were “subtle signs” it was an embarrassing experience, so I’ve learned my lesson.
@DarkWinterNights Exactly, there really is no way to be sure about it, and that's a problem, because misinterpreting signs can sometimes lead to real trouble.
Sure... but it's best to ignore any signals/messages you get from women unless she meets YOUR requirements. And don't aim low. Almost all of the risk is on us guys.
It depends, some girls are more subtle at acting like it than others or they show it in different ways. I can almost always tell though by the way she looks into my eyes if she is into it, and body language. if she touches me even if its putting a hand on my arm or shoulder, playful or even pushing me or hitting me, the more contact i can usually tell is a sure sign.
No I can’t say definitely if a woman is attracted, I can only tell they love to joke and to provoke, so most of the times they’ll do the things you listed in order to provocate a reaction from you.
Yeah, but I can’t tell if they’re platonically, sexually, or romantically attracted to me so it doesn’t help that much.
Yeah it's easy... Body language, smiling and giggling... And most importantly the eyes... When a girl likes you she stares at you with such passion
yes... when she approaches and says him with an interest or intrigue, then I'd be quite certain she is, lol
Sometimes. A lot of women where I live will just act like they have no attraction to you and expect you to be a fucking mind reader, and then wonder why you never asked them out on a date. Dumbest shit ever.
A lot of the time, yes, but not always. If there’s subtle flirting involved, I’m very good at picking that up.
