How do you know when a guy is interested or likes you?

Question

Alot of guys at my schools flirt with me, some compliment me or just simply talk to me. How do I know when they like me? Or if you're a guy what do you do when you like a girl? I know all guys are different but I am curious to know what they do. Thanks! :D

Answer 1

I pay more attention to her. I put out a vibe that I'm interested. I look for ways to make her smile or laugh. I try to catch her eye and hold her look for a bit longer than normal. If she smiles back, I know I might be able to try moving to the next step which might be touching her hand or shoulder when she says something I can relate to or want to encourage her in.

I usually play it pretty slow and make sure she is giving me some kind of signal that any advance I make would be well received or at least not rejected By an advance, it might be just my invitation to walk with her for a bit, carry something for her, chat a while longer. I try to show respect and appreciation for her point of view. I may flatter her but not to the point it is fake or obvious. I base my compliments on things I really feel and believe.

I may bring her some token gift, even if it is just something to eat or drink or to share something that I have. I may also offer to help her in some endeavor, for example with the answers to a question, help with homework, studying for a test, etc.

The goal is just to spend more 1 on 1 time with her if I can but not to push it too much.

Actually, I find more often than not that someone really likes me but I didn't pick up on it because I don't go around thinking myself better than others or always being on the hunt. I have nice looks they tell me but I don't let it go to my head. I think humility is so much more attractive than arrogance or conceit. Actually, my hero is Jesus so the values that he advanced are ones I try to internalize. I'm much more at peace and as a result, some blessings have come my way. I'm looking forward to the next chapter in life and what it will bring.

Answer 2

Not all the guys are the same. Yes, you might think they like you but some just like to play with girls feelings. The only time you know when a guys really likes you is when he becomes your friend and treats you well whether around with friends or not. Also if he really likes you, he will respect you and NOT touch your butt/body parts, especially if you're not comfortable.

My bff is a guy so I know alot about guys and their dirty tricks and minds.

Answer 3

Depends on what age the guys are. Some guys are shy and will just look at you, but some guys will take an interest. One trick that I do is that I get in a conversation with a guy and see if he locks eyes, then i look away while i'm talking or he's talking and then look back at him to see if he's still looking at me. That shows me that he's at least interested in what I'm talking about. But in general, guys will make the effort to get to know you if they like you.

Answer 4

First red flag sign a guy is interested in you is when his eyes track you over really REALLY good. Physical / sexual attraction is the first moment people experience when attracted to one (or each other).

From here: things meet up at the "fork in the road", where the one attracted to you either follows down the road of lustful attraction--where he (or she) is out for "that sweet one thing".

The other path is taken by those who....yes...experience the intial sexual attraction---but control it and allow their heart to attach to yours. Your happiness becomes theirs....your heartaches become theirs...you get the idea.

Ah, yet you have the task of deciding which path the "admirer" has taken. If you want thrills w/ no strings attached (and you take self-protective measures), then the one on the lustful path may not be a bad choice. Think: "friends....with benefits" (wink, wink).

However....if love is what you seek....then I don't need to go further on what path you need to follow.

And regardless of which one you decide to be with--be true to youself; know what you want in a guy (or girl).

The hat-trick is to not let YOUR LOVE cloud your judgement's eye--and handle each w/ wise common sense.

Answer 5

it depends on the guy. shy guys normally make a lot of eye contact or asks your friends about you. an outgoing guy might show off, or just try to keep your attention. but really, if he acts differently around you than he acts with his friends or with other girls, you can be pretty sure he likes you. so just because a guy flirts with you doesn't mean he's interested. to find out you need to watch him with other girls (in a noncreepy nonstalkerish kind of way of course.)

Answer 6

There is a guy who is obsessed with me and my Q can be applied to you.

Signs that a guy likes you are that he will keep SMSing you although you will not returning his calls; he will try to talk to you when he sees you; he smiles at you; he desperately wants to invite you to a dinner and he don't care if you want to bring along a friend; he will defend you when you did something bad (e.g. absent from the class); he will help in whatever million ways just for you; and he will never flirt with other girl because he is stuck on you.

Answer 7

there are many many ways, me personally, will always be looking at her, always at her eyes... that is one of the ways you can tell a guy's character, he'll look at your eyes when you tlk to him, or just becuase, a creep will look at your boobs or butt, a girl never deserves that... you put mke up on your face becuase you want guys too look at your face, you don't put mke up on your butt because 1) eww 2)you don't want guys to check out your butt. I think that a girl deserves a guy who would take a bullet for you. Another thing i do, is try to tease them, that is jut a little bit of a subtile message... you can tell a person's thoughts, intensions, and anything else you want to know about them by looking at there eyes. you can tell who they look at you, this isn't something that can easily be explained, especially over the internet. you can just look int their eyes, and f they look like they want to be yours, and you to be theirs, then he likes you. Another thing, is be patient, the right guy is going to come, whether it takes a day, month, year, or even a decade, you can't rush things... and on a final note, you should give all guys a chance, the good looking guys are most of the time the creeps... well i hope i helped, best of luck

P.S. can you answer my question?

Answer 8

when a guy pursues you or shadows you and shows interest in everything you do. but you have to be aware that guys go for girls that whet their ever changing appetites. they tend to choose girls and categorizes them as "flavor of the month" or week or worst just a day! be careful in giving in to guys who would court you and try to sweep you off your feet. they might not be sincere you know. just use your common sense and preserve your moral dignity more. guys do come and go. your self worth however is far more important than any guy who would drag you under the bushes. it may feel great for a few seconds but in the end you know that really, it's not worth it! --take care!

Answer 9

Hi Caitlin. If you are below 16 take a look at yourself, whether you dressup sexily. Plain dressup might avoid those who flirt, talk less and make some sort of advances, direct or remotely. Talk plainly with every one, who insist upon talking to you. Just watch for their body language to what they intend to lead to. If you are plain then those who show superficial interest with intentions to hike you would be avoided.

Answer 10

Try to make a move and see it what happens. Most guys are scared to make the first move they like to flirt but are shy at making the next step.
