If they make a lot of eye contact and they smile a lot when they're talking to you, it's a good sign they're interested in you. The biggest sign is if they go out of their way to physically touch you, though. Little brushes on your elbow, shoulder, or back are a huge sign that they like you, so look out for those!

Question

Can I tell if a guy is falling in love in me just by the way he looks at me?

Community Answer

If he looks at you often and in a dreamy/loving way, it could be a good sign. But it's only one sign. How does he talk to you? Are there other signals that he may be into you?

Question

If a guy kissed me and acts like we're dating, what does that mean?

Community Answer

It could mean that he really likes you. Does he act this way no matter who is around? The best thing to do is to talk to him.

Question

What does it means when a guy texts you outside school, but inside school he doesn't talk to you.

Community Answer

Well, it probably means one of two things-- - Either he is really shy. - Or he doesn't like you that way. If he seems shy or socially awkward in other situations, maybe he just doesn't know how to talk to you in person! Give him some time to figure it out.

Question

I have a crush on a guy, but I don't know if he likes me.

Community Answer

Look for some clues! Does he want to spend time with you? Do you catch him looking at you from across the room? Truly, the best way to find out how he feels is to ask him.

Question

I am a freshman in love with my shy junior best friend. I know that shy guys hate confrontations. How can I tell him how I feel without making him uncomfortable?

Community Answer

Start small. Don't come right out and say you love him. Try asking him if he wants to go on a real date sometime.

If a guy gave me his jacket when it was cold outside the school, does this mean he likes me?

Community Answer

It might! It is a good sign, but look for a few more signs to be sure.

Question

How do I know if my friend likes me? He's my new classmate so I don't know him well.

Community Answer

Everybody is different so it's hard to say. Does he want to sit near you or spend time with you? Do you catch him looking at you? Does he smile a lot when you are near him? Try some gentle flirting and see how he responds.

Question

I am a gay guy who has a crush on a possible straight guy. He keeps looking at me and asks me questions and his eyes are so pretty. How can I tell if he likes me?

Community Answer

If you're not sure if he is gay, it can be hard to tell. You might misread his friendship signals as signs that he likes you. But there are a few things to look for: - Does he ever sit close to you? Or lean toward you? Or touch you? This could be a good sign. - You could ask him if he wants to hang out sometime, and see how he reacts. - If you are feeling brave, you could tell him that you're gay and he how he reacts to that info.
