Romantic relationships often arise from great friendships. However, as you seek the courage to reveal your feelings, it's nerve-wracking to wait to find out if a girl likes you or if she just wants to be your friend. It is difficult to understand what she is feeling without confessing your love, but by learning to recognize some signs, you will be able to distinguish mere friends from potential partners.
Steps
Part 1 of 3: Signs to Watch Out for
Step 1. Notice if she looks you in the eye
If a girl looks down as soon as she sees you or lowers her head smiling, there's a good chance she's attracted to you. It's hard to look someone in the eye when you have strong feelings for them that you haven't confessed yet.
With the term triangulation, an eye movement pattern is described that strongly suggests that a girl likes you. She will look at you in one eye, then the other, then move her gaze to your mouth and repeat the sequence
Step 2. See if she curls her hair
Touching your hair stimulates blood circulation and makes you feel connected to your body, so if you notice a girl engaging in this behavior, it's a positive sign.
Step 3. Pay attention to body language
If a girl gets very close to you, makes excuses to touch you, or extends your contacts slightly, she may consider you more than a friend.
- If she touches your shoulder, strokes your hand, or hugs you for no reason, she probably likes you.
- If a girl wants to share what she drinks or eats with you, she probably likes you a lot.
Step 4. Notice if he laughs at your jokes, even when they're not funny
If a girl always has a smile on her lips when you talk and does nothing but laugh, it means that she enjoys your company a lot. This is a subconscious way of saying "I really like you and I love hearing you talk."
When we are in love, we only see the positive sides of the other person, thinking that everything they say is perfect and funny
Part 2 of 3: Consider how He behaves in your company
Step 1. Pay attention to how he treats you compared to other friends
If she likes you, she will probably act more shy or blush often when you are together. If her attitude towards you is the same as her attitude towards other people you know, she probably just wants to be your friend.
Step 2. Observe her behavior when you are in a group
If a girl likes you, she might shower you with attention, even when other people are around. She does this because she prefers to talk and spend her time with you.
Step 3. See if he knows your interests well
When a girl has a romantic interest in you, she'll remember if you said you prefer chicken to steak and she'll know all your favorite songs.
Step 4. Take a jealousy test
Notice if she gets angry or jealous when you flirt with another girl. If she seems annoyed or asks what you were talking about, she may have romantic feelings towards you.
Step 5. Pay attention to how her friends treat you
If they show a sudden interest in you or ask you a lot of personal questions, they are probably trying to get to know you better, because their friend has strong feelings for you.
If they try to make fun of you when your friend is around, she probably likes you
Step 6. Listen to what he says when you are together
If a girl likes you, she will indirectly express her feelings to you. Here are some things it can say:
- "I really enjoy spending time with you"
- "You are my favourite"
- "You're so funny"
Step 7. Notice who initiates the conversations
If a girl always starts talking to you, especially if she doesn't have a good reason to, she's undoubtedly interested!
If he texts you just to say hello or that he is thinking of you, these are positive signs
Part 3 of 3: Asking Direct Questions
Step 1. Be direct and ask her how she feels
There is nothing wrong with asking a person what their feelings about you are. You may feel embarrassed at first, but if she cares about you, as a friend or something more, she will get over the problem and appreciate that you feel comfortable enough with her to be open and sincere. Here are some ways to ask the question:
- "How do you feel about me?"
- "Do you see me as a friend or as something more?"
Step 2. Ask her questions about love and feelings
If you prefer a less direct approach and don't want to ask her how she feels about you, you might be able to get an idea with some romantic questions. Here are some things you can ask:
- "Would you like to fall in love?"
- "Do you think two friends can fall in love with each other?"
Step 3. Ask how a mutual friend feels
Girls tell almost everything to their friends. If the idea of asking a direct question makes you too nervous, ask a close friend of hers how things are. Keep in mind that when you start talking to your friends, they will likely say what you said to the girl you care about. Here are some simple questions you can ask:
- "Do you know if she likes anyone?"
- "Does he ever talk to you about the boys he goes with?"
Step 4. Find out what it says about you when you are not together
If the girl always finds a reason to mention your name, she speaks well of you when you are not around or smiles when she hears you name, she has strong feelings for you.
Step 5. Try dating
Find the courage to ask the girl to go to the movies with you or go out for dinner. If she dresses elegantly or wears more makeup than usual, it means she's trying to make a good impression on you. A girl who loves you goes out of her way to stand out in your eyes, taking care of her appearance and trying to be funny.
Advice
- See if he does everything for you. If she offers to do you annoying favors or help you with a project, she probably likes you a lot.
- If she likes you, she may joke around with you, or ironically quote your past relationships.
- If you like someone, let them know!
- Does he always wait for you in the hallways after math class or does he sit next to you in the cafeteria? If a girl always pays her attention to you or writes to you often, maybe she likes you.
