The answer to the question: Does he/she like me?

[tragicallyinlove]

The question pops up all the time. "does he like me?", "does this or this mean she likes me?", "does she think I'm good enough for her?", etc. I am here to give you the answer you are searching so diligently for...

The answer to the question is... *drum roll* *trumpets sound*... The answer is I don't know.

I bet you're now wondering, what's the heck!? That didn't answer my question at all!

I know it didn't, but that's all we can give you. We are not in the mind of the person you so desire. All the information we have on it is a small paragraph that really doesn't tell us much of anything.

So, I told you I'd give you an answer, so I'll tell you what I tell everyone who asks this question.

The only way to know if they really truly like you, is to ask them.

I know it sounds scary, but it's the only sure fire way to know. They as re truly the only person who knows the desires of their heart.

So, go ask them. What do you have to lose? Go for it. It might just lead to something spectacular! Good luck to all you lovers out there!

I've asked this question a few times myself, but when I ask it, I give thorough detail about the situation AND I always ask 'What do you think of this?' By doing this I am truly just asking for an outside opinion, an outside opinion that I will not assume to be correct. It's just nice to get a different perspective on things. Also, young kids are new to this dating thing. They don't know much about it. They are just looking for some guidance and advice. There's also such a thing as pm'ing a person with more details, but a lot of times people don't want to waste their time reading all of that. While I understand this, and while I know that life is unfair, I think it's unfair to just say 'Ask them.' Sometimes people may need a little courage, a little push. Why can't we just give it to them?

I'm not saying we shouldn't try to help them, I'm just saying that asking the person is the only way to know for sure if they like you or not.

What if the person writes about ten paragraphs thouroughly describing the situation? Could that help you guess a bit? I usually ask this question to see if I am over thinking things. I believe it is best to have someone outside of my mind give me a clearer look on the situation. And I don't believe it is as simple as "just ask and see" because in many situations hat could ruin your chance if you don't have a solid foundation first.

Still we are not in their head, we don't know. Everyone is different, everyone flirts different and some people are just more naturally flirty than others. So all I'm saying is to accurately know if they truly like you is to ask them. That's the only way to get an accurate answer. You don't have to ask them I'm just saying that's the only way to know. A bunch of strangers don't know any better than you. We can only guess.

Good take :) It's hard to answer those questions when we have no real idea what the other person is thinking.
