Answer 1

Sometimes the direct approach is best - just ask. But if that seems too bold for your liking, look for the following signs.
Behavior
Instructions
•STEP 1: Pay attention to your conversations with the person in question. Does this person show a special interest in having a conversation with you and, once started, make an effort to keep that conversation going?
•STEP 2: Is this person "accidentally" running into you in places where he or she knows you will be, such as at your desk? At the Laundromat on Tuesdays? At your brother's birthday party?
•STEP 3: Make a note if he or she mentions future plans to spend time with you: "That band is coming to town soon. We should really get tickets."
•STEP 4: Spend time alone together. Canceling other plans in order to be with you longer, or not finding excuses to leave, could be a sign of interest.
•STEP 5: Has he or she been calling for random reasons, such as, "I was wondering if you knew what that pizza place down the street is called," followed by, "Are you hungry?"
•STEP 6: Has this person taken a sudden interest in your life and hobbies? This is a sure sign that he or she is interested in something - and it's probably not your stamp collection.
•STEP 7: Observe how the person acts around your friends - he or she might be extra friendly to your closest pals for a reason.
Body Language
Instructions
•STEP 1: Sometimes seeing someone you have a crush on results in telltale physiological signs. Does the person in question blush when you look at him or her? His or her sympathetic nervous system is probably going into overdrive. Does he or she have trouble speaking, using jumbled words when talking to you?
•STEP 2: See if the person in question mirrors your motions: When you lean back, he or she leans back; when you put your elbows on the table, he or she does the same.
•STEP 3: Note whether this person sits or stands in the open position - that is, facing you with arms uncrossed. In addition, a woman tends to cross her legs in a man's direction.
•STEP 4: Does he or she move closer to you and/or touch you subtly, such as with a pat of your hand or a touch of your cheek?
•STEP 5: Other elements of body language include frequent eye contact, holding your gaze and looking down before looking away, energetic speech coupled with open hands, and flashing palms.
•STEP 6: Does the person you're wondering about just plain smile at you a lot?

Answer 2

Some more info would help. Are you male or female? Is the other one male or female? What kind of personality do they have (shy or outgoing, popular or unpopular, focused on grades or friends, other things you can think of about their personality)?

As a general rule, if they are shy when you look at them: they will more than likely turn away very quickly (usually by turning their eyes in a downward direction). If they are more outgoing they will still turn away, but not as quickly and they will look more to the side (left or right doesn't matter that much) and not downward.

Often if the person is female after they look away they'll rub their forearm slightly. If the person is male they may square their shoulder or slightly puff up their chest. None of these arm deals happen everytime, but they do the majority of the time. Also look for a female to move her hand to her neck (signifies vulnerability, the hallmark of femininity). But if she is a tomboy this sign may not show up either.

But I tell you this only to build up confidence if you see these signs. I would offer this advice (it has worked for me on a number of occasions). You say you feel attracted to them, go ahead and ask them out. You seem to feel that they are attracted to you, but you don't trust your instincts. Trust me, your instincts are usually right. Of course not always, but usually.

And if it turns out the instinct is wrong, you've got an awkward situation on your hands for maybe a week at absolute most, if that long. Stay away from them for a couple of days and then treat them the same way you did beforehand when you do speak with them again, and the situation will be forgotten soon enough. But if your instinct is right and they say yes, it will have been worth the effort.

Answer 3

I'm into psychology, and the study of body language, so I can tell you some of the things I learned. He will uncross his arms around you if he feels comfortable, a slight lean will happen when he's standing by you or sitting next to you. If he mimics your motions, for example; if you touch your hair, he touches his, or if you cross your legs, he will do the same. Sometimes if you both have your legs crossed toward eachother that shows a positive conversation is happening. I hope this helps, there are much more things I could tell you, bu the list would go on forever. Good Luck.

Answer 4

I was really shy when I was in school, so I was WAYYYY too scared to walk up to a girl and ask her if she wanted to go out sometime...but whenever I liked a girl, I would always find myself looking at them when they weren't looking...and then I'd always look away really fast if they looked at me.

Answer 5

Flirt with them and see what kind of response you get. Be subtle at first....can't hurt. If that doesn't work, fess up your feelings

Answer 6

If the person asks to wear your underwear on his/her head he/she is probably interested.

Answer 7

he keeps on staring at you and agreeing on whatever you will say. keep asking stupid questions on whatever...

Answer 8

well u should just ask them. good luck
