    See how much time he spends around you compared to other people. If he's spending a lot of his free time with you, there's a good chance that he's interested. He might also ask you a lot of questions about yourself.

    What if we’re in different classes and don’t see each other very much?

    Community Answer
    You can still see how he acts when you do see him, like when you're walking through the halls or after class. And, if you really want to know if he likes you, try exchanging numbers! If he's into you, he'll be super excited about getting your contact info.
  • Question
    I like a guy and he's constantly staring at me in class. I kind of want him to know, so I stare back. He also laughs ALL THE TIME around me, but he never tries to touch me. Maybe he's shy?

    Community Answer
    Some people just don't love touching others, and that's okay! If he's staring at you and laughing around you, those are 2 great signs that he's into you. Try sitting close to him and leaning in as you talk to signal that you're also interested.

      Article Summary X

      To know if a man is attracted to you, watch to see if he does favors for you. For example, if he brings you coffee or is constantly offering to help you out, he's probably interested. Furthermore, if he makes excuses to be around you, like walking to work together or chatting during lunch, he's most likely doing it because he likes you. If you still aren't sure, keep an eye on his body language – if he's leaning towards you or touching your arm, he's probably attracted to you! When you're around him, see if you can catch him staring at you, and notice if he fixes his hair or clothes. If he does, it may be a good time to act!
