If you want to know how to tell if a guy likes you, allow me to give you a little advice: you’re probably overthinking it.

romantic gestures

Want to know how to tell if a guy likes you? This probably won’t happen.

You’re looking for grand gestures.

You want him to show up at your door with a dozen red roses.

You want him to call you his girlfriend after just one date.

You want him to introduce you to his mom.

You want him to write a song about you, expounding on your beauty and wit.

I can tell you’ve been watching a lot of rom-com movies, and that’s a shame. I hate how pop culture gives women a skewed idea of what romance is like.

Unfortunately, we guys rarely make such large romantic efforts. You know who writes those scenes in romantic movies?

Women.

Yep. Not men. We wouldn’t even think about running across a field of flowers so you can leap into our arms. It’s just not how we operate.

And the truth is: we don’t need to be Mr. Romantic for you to know if a guy likes you. We tell you that we like you in subtle ways.

You just have to pay attention to know how to tell if a guy likes you. But don’t worry; I’m about to give you the 411 on what to look for as signs he does.

How To Tell If a Guy Likes You Sign #1: Body Language

body language

A man’s body language tells you he’s into you.

One of the best ways to tell if a guy likes you is to pay attention to what he does with his body when he’s around you. Body language has scientifically been proven to communicate attraction.

In a study by Vacharkulksemsuk and associates, speed daters who used expansive body language (like widespread limbs or a stretched torso) were 76% more likely to be chosen for a date.

Clearly, body language says something to a person you’re interested in. No words needed.

So when you’re with your guy, pay attention to how his body is positioned. Does he lean in toward you when you talk, as if hanging on your every word? Does he mirror you, meaning if you, for example, cross your legs, he also crosses his?

If you want to know how to tell if a man likes you, see if his feet are pointing in your direction. Generally, when there is attraction or interest, he will point his body toward you.

On the other hand, his body language can also tell you that he’s not interested. If he crosses his arms while talking to you, or points his body away from you, he may not be interested in you romantically.

Pay attention to what he’s saying with his body language. It may speak volumes about how he feels about you.

How To Tell If a Guy Likes You Sign #2: He Gets Nervous Around You

While you might get butterflies whenever you see your crush, you have to realize that he, too, may get nervous around you. Anything you’re feeling, he probably is feeling too.

So, if he likes you, he might act nervous.

Nervousness is portrayed in different ways by different people.

He might talk super fast and not pause for a breath or to let you say something.

He might stutter.

His hands might shake.

He might tell dumb jokes.

Realize that what might come off as self-centered — like him doing all the talking, or not asking you questions — might just be a case of the nerves, so think twice before writing him off as not interested.

Just think about what you do around a man that you like when you get nervous. Look for signs like those to know that he’s feeling the same!

How To Tell If a Guy Likes You Sign #3: He Makes Eye Contact

eye contact

A guy who likes you will make eye contact a lot.

Above all, you will know a guy likes you if he maintains eye contact with you. This can happen when you first catch one another’s eyes across the bar as well as on a first date. If he’s got you locked in his sights while you talk, it’s a great sign!

If he is into you, he may sweep your face from right to left with his adoring gaze. He might even lift his eyebrow at you.

However, here’s something interesting: eye contact isn’t the only way to know how to tell if a guy likes you. There are other areas he may look if he’s interested. In a recent scientific study, researchers at Wellesley College and the University of Kansas discovered that both men and women who were romantically interested in someone would stare at that person’s head or chest frequently. If they considered that person just a friend, they looked at feet or legs more.

So before you slap him for looking at your chest (my eyes are up here, buddy), know that this is another sign that he is interested in you romantically.

How To Tell If a Guy Likes You Sign #4: He Gives You A Lot Of Attention

This tip is a good one if you’re in a crowd of people, where it can be challenging to gauge his interest. If he’s giving you more attention than anyone else and exhibiting some of these other signs, there’s a good chance he does.

Test it out. If you’re at a party, move away from the crowd that he’s in. Say you need to get a drink or something. Then don’t return. See if he catches your eye across the room, or, even better, follows you to where you are.

The key here is confidence. If you are confident of your power to draw him, he most certainly will follow you. But if you look like you’re doing everything you can to not rush back over into the glow of his attention, that will turn him off.

If, however, you leave his area and he doesn’t seem to notice, he’s either playing games or isn’t interested in you. More research is needed.

How To Tell If a Guy Likes You Sign #5: He Smiles A Lot

smiling man

He will smile at you frequently if he’s into you.

Not only does smiling attract others to you, but it’s also an indicator of attraction.

The next time you’re with the man you’re interested in, notice how often he smiles. Then: what kind of smile is he giving you? Is it a polite smile to just show interest in what you’re saying?

A fake smile that totally doesn’t fool you?

Or a smile — that includes his eyes — that says he’s having a great time and is enjoying his time with you?

Want to get him to smile more? Do more smiling yourself. They’re contagious. I promise.

How To Tell If a Guy Likes You Sign #6: He Finds Excuses To Touch You All The Time

Look, guys like to touch on ladies.

Some do it in a pervy manner that gets them slapped. This isn’t the kind of touching you’re looking for. Instead, you’re looking for little innocent touches like on the arm or shoulder. A man who is into you will find excuses to touch you. Here are some examples:

Oh, cool. What does your tattoo say? [he gently grabs your wrist and rubs his thumb over your tattoo.]

Wow, you’re tense. Need a massage? [he squeezes your shoulder.]

After you. [he gently grazes your low back with his palm as you walk through the door.]

Oh, you’ve got something in your hair. [he gently brushes your hair back.]

Trust me: if a man does not like you, he doesn’t want to give the wrong impression by touching you in a way that might make you think he’s interested. So if he’s finding ways to touch you, he’s clearly trying to communicate his feelings.

So if you want to tell if a guy likes you, pay attention to how he finds an opportunity to touch you or make it seem accidental. That arm wrestling match he coerced you into? Yea. That was planned.

How To Tell If a Guy Likes You Sign #7: Pay Attention To His Friends

a guy's friends

A guy’s friends can give you an indicator of his interest.

First of all, if you’ve met his friends already, this is an excellent sign. That alone indicates that a) they know about you and b) he’s proud to show you off to them.

But maybe you met this guy at the same time that you met his friends. Maybe you already knew them. Either way, they can provide clues for how this man feels about you.

Editor’s note: Ready to attract love with a proven strategy? Watch this free video to learn the 7 powerful steps

Are they surprised at your presence when you show up with him for events? Or do they greet you comfortably, like they fully expected you to be there?

Do you get the sense that he talks to them about you? Do they say things like you’ve got a real winner with John? Overall, you’re looking for clues that this man is comfortable enough with his bros to talk to them about the lady in his life. You don’t want to be a secret. You want him to be so stunned that a looker like you is interested in him that he shouts it from the rooftops to anyone who will listen.

If you haven’t met his friends yet, tell him you’d like to meet them. Suggest a beer meetup with them and see what he says. If he’s not into you or hasn’t told them about you, he may be hesitant to make plans with them. If a guy likes you, though, he’ll be quick to include you in plans with his closest friends.

How To Tell If a Guy Likes You Sign #8: He Teases You A Lot

Look, I’ll be the first to admit: men can sometimes be juvenile. When we were kids, we got a girl’s attention by teasing her. Calling her names, pulling her pigtails, you name it.

So can you really wonder why some of us still use this tactic to get your attention as grown women?

Yea, I admit it’s probably not the best strategy, but there you have it. Wanna know how to tell if a guy likes you? He teases you incessantly.

Now, to be sure, there’s a right way and a wrong way to tease a woman. Obviously, if his teasing is mean or makes you uncomfortable, let him know and he should back off. But a gentle teasing tells you he’s feeling playful around you and wants to make you laugh.

Him: Wow, you look great.

You: Aw, thank you. That’s sweet.

Him: How much does it cost to hire Beyonce’s makeup artist? Because she did such a fantastic job on you, I might hire her myself!

If you’re game, tease back. It’s a great way to get some real chemistry going on between you two.

How To Tell If a Guy Likes You Sign #9: He Compliments Often

man gives compliments

If a man gives compliments, he likes you.

You look fantastic today.

Wow, that dress looks amazing on you.

You’re the funniest woman I ever met.

I have such a good time with you.

Men don’t usually dole out the compliments unless they mean them. If the guy you’re dating is quick to say nice things about you, he’s most likely into you.

Do pay attention to assess whether the compliments are sincere. And watch out that not all the compliments he gives you are about your physical looks. Certainly, it’s nice to hear that he is physically attracted to you, but if he’s not talking about your brain or your wit, you might wonder if all he wants is a fling.

And consider how you take the compliment. Recently, author, social worker, and activist Feminista Jones conducted a social experiment and found out that men don’t like it when you agree with their compliments. They often expect you to demurely blush, lower your eyes, and say, Why, this old thing? It’s what I do my housecleaning in!

What she did was pretty funny, actually. A guy would tell a woman that she had a great body, and she’d reply I know, right? 

Needless to say, the unsuspecting men were thrown off by this reaction. So take the compliment. Say thank you. Even if you feel uncomfortable when he tells you you’re beautiful because you don’t agree, accept that he thinks so. Say thanks and move on with your life.

How To Tell If a Guy Likes You Sign #10: He Connects With You On Social Media

We live in a world where being connected on social media is an indicator of connections in real life. Strange, I know. And while many men aren’t even on Facebook (whereas you post every day to keep up with friends and family), if he starts following you or connecting with you on social media, it’s because he wants into your world.

He likely will dig through your past posts and photos to get a sense of who you are (don’t even front; you’re doing the same!). Really, this is a good thing, because it gives him the opportunity to get to know you sneakily. So let him do it.

If you start noticing that he’s liking your Instagram posts and commenting on your shares, you can tell he likes you!

And if you’ve been on a few dates and you bring up connecting on social because he hasn’t, you might ask yourself why. Sometimes a man who won’t friend you on Facebook or tag you on Instagram has something to hide.

How To Tell If a Guy Likes You Sign #11: He Doesn’t Use His Phone Around You

man on phone

If he likes you, he’ll put down the phone.

I know, I know. The fact that this is a sign that a guy likes you is a testament to how glued to our mobile phones we all are today.

But phubbing is a real thing. The slang term for “phone snubbing,” it describes how someone can totally ignore you, instead opting to scroll through social media feeds or checking the news or texts on their phone.

It’s insulting. And yet, for many, it is extremely hard to put down the phone and focus on the real, live human in front of us.

But if his phone never leaves his pocket, or even if it sits face down on the table, he is clearly ready to give you his undivided attention. He only does that with people he likes and respects. So count yourself among this exclusive group.

The best thing you can do is to reciprocate. Leave your phone in your purse. You can even compliment him on his self-restraint: Wow! Most guys totally ignore me for their phones. I love that you aren’t glued to yours.

(That also sets a precedent for him to understand that you don’t like it when you get ignored for a phone, in the off chance that he simply hasn’t gotten around to gluing his face to his phone just yet.)

How To Tell If a Guy Likes You Sign #12: He Can Regurgitate What You’ve Told Him

In my experience as a dating coach, I can’t tell you how many women have told me how important it is that a guy listens to them. Not just listens but actually hears. That means a guy doesn’t look at you with a glazed expression on a date. He’s actually interested in what you’re saying.

Even if you’re talking about rocket science or a recently discovered type of mold.

And if a guy likes you, he’ll go one step further: he’ll refer back to something you said previously. Maybe when you texted on the dating app last week, you told him about that time that a llama sneezed in your face when you were five. When you meet for coffee, he brings it up when the barista sneezes.

See? He’s paying attention, and that’s great news for you.

How To Tell If a Guy Likes You Sign #13: He Asks Questions

Another big fail many guys make on first dates is talking about themselves incessantly. This flaw doesn’t necessarily mean you’re dating a narcissist, but it may indicate that he’s not all that into you.

A man that likes you will want to get to know you. How can he do that? By asking you questions. About your work. About your family. About your upbringing and friends.

Good chemistry flow has both people on a date asking and answering questions back and forth.

So if you’re mid-date and wondering how to tell if a guy likes you, consider how many questions he’s asked you versus talked about himself. Are you doing all the asking? Or is he genuinely showing interest in what you’re telling him and coming up with more followup questions?

Conclusion:

how to know if a guy likes you

Trust your gut. You’ll know if he likes you.

Look, men aren’t great at communicating that we like you. It’s intimidating, putting ourselves out there. So we make it a little challenging for you to figure out if we are into you.

For that, allow me to apologize for the entire male species.

But if you get out of your head a bit and pay attention, you’ll see that we’re giving off signs that we’re into you. It’s in our body language. In the things we say. In how comfortable we are with you. In how fast we respond to your text or ask you out again.

Sure, some of us are into playing games, and you’ll have to accept that or keep looking for a man who won’t play games to win your affection.

But let me give you this piece of advice: trust your gut. If you’re sure that a guy likes you, he probably is. He might be shy or scared of getting hurt, so he might be slow to make a move.

If you think he’s a guy that’s worth the wait, be a little patient.

And make sure you’re giving off your own signals that you’re into him. Because while in your head you might be gaga for him, you might not be showing that outwardly. So give us a few signs that you’re into us, ladies. It’ll boost our confidence and help us express our own interest better.

It’s naive to think that it’s because he’s busy or he doesn’t know what to say if he doesn’t know what to say then he needs to mature and become a man but you’re making excuses men are pretty straightforward if they’re into you they’re calling you they’re attentive to the situation don’t kid yourself and don’t let your heart break for no reason

Well if he’s acting like an a****** around his friends he’s acting juvenile and he’s a little boy do you have time to train don’t you want a real man? Also if you are co-signing his bad behavior in front of his friends then you’re teaching him how to treat you your silence is your message to him that it’s okay to treat you this way that’s either his real heart and he’s acting when he’s with you being nice or doesn’t it can’t be both call him out or call a cab

Just because a guy is good, close friends with you and might even enjoy hanging out with you one-on-one, they (depending on the guy), might not be looking for anything more than a casual friendship with someone they can talk to without worrying about guy stuff.

Hmm okay, so just think, who do you like more? If you like the one who said he’s in love with you, then just tell him you made a mistake and that you would like to be with him. If you like the one who you’re “obsessed” with, then try to become closer freinds, ask him for help with homework, ask to borrow a pencil, try to be his partner in class etc.

In my personal experiences, I would say that you should just go for it. Show up at his house unexpectedly with full expectation of a movie moment. When he opens the door, fall into his arms and stare at his chest. If he stares at your chest, then he clearly is into you. Please don’t slap him!

He is probably very nervous and he didn’t want to mess up or embarrass himself in front of you. Or someone probably said something mean about you or threaten him not to talk to you. Are there any rumors about you lately? Or maybe he is jealous.

But in my opinion, he likes you. DO YOU LIKE HIM TOO?

my crush likes me, i am so hyped. even though he is much older i am glad to know that me and him both wanna be together. although he claims that he doesnt like me, i can tell by his body language that he likes me. i love him with all of my heart but he doesnt know, i have never felt this strong about a guy before and i have also had dreams about us having kids, cant wait for when m and him can be together

I have a guy friend and he mostly does those things. And when I told him about my crush on a guy he gets angry. And doesn’t talk to me for a day and then we talk again and act like nothing happened. Does this mean he likes me?

Every time we see each other, he automatically posts something on social media about his feelings. Most recently, “Longing, how soft a word for such a ravenous feeling. How we hunger in silence..” he always does this. So is this a sign he’s into me?

He is saying he longs for someone. The feeling eats him up inside but he stays silent because he is afraid to mess anything up.

Yeah, that could be a possibility. Some people start to like someone else outside of their relationship. Either that, or he’s just playing. But for some more hints about it, maybe you should also try to pay attention on how he acts around his girl. Hope that helps! :p

So this guy is always glancing at me. We used to bump into each other a lot too. I mean him and his friends are like always looking at me and smiling when I walk by. Once he made a joke and I turned back and made eye contact with him and and started laughing. He didn’t break the eye contact but I noticed that we were making eye contact for 3 seconds and turned away quickly. I didn’t want to make it seem weird that’s why I did that. Do you think he likes me back?

Hiya,

Honestly it seems like an ultimatum is needed. Either you or her, as he’s gonna hurt her either way whether she finds out about you two or ends it. But ending it is a cleaner way to do it. It’s also not fair on you for him to be stringing you along as he either loves you enough to break up with his girlfriend or will just continue to string you along when you could be happy with someone else. He should probably man up and be mature.

Hope that helps and it’s only an opinion so do whatever

So what do I do if I really like this guy. He’s very socially awkward and I think it’s cute. He is always giving me compliments and blushes around me. The only thing is I’m afraid I like him so much that I want everything he does to be a sign he likes me so now I second guess myself. I want to ask him without being too obveous or ruining our friendship. I’m 100% legal but he’s considerably older than me and I haven’t quite figured out the male brain yet. I don’t want to scare him off.

Guys are SO frustrating! They seem to play alot of games. I would straight up ask him, if he doesn’t give you a straight answer then leave it alone. Don’t go out of your way to talk to him and don’t show you have anymore interest in him. Yes I know this will be hard, give it some time and he will notice that you are not giving him the attention you were before. It will make him think… Anymore it’s a game, dating is NOT what it used to be. Best of luck to you!
