How to Tell if a Guy is Attracted to You

It would seem as though men are complicated animals. They seem to send off vibes and messages that are almost impossible for girls to interpret. In truth, however, most guys are far less complicated than we think, and when a guy seems to be tricky, it’s usually the girl reading too much into the situation.

So how do you know if a guy is attracted to you?

You ask him. Granted, you might not want to put yourself or him on the spot by marching up and asking him (or sending a pack of your friends they way girls do in junior high), but you can ask a guy about his interest in many different ways.

Flirting

Your first bet is to flirt with a guy. Most guys are hesitant to take the upper hand. They are shy and uncertain about what to do – most have much more success with ladies in the locker room stories than they do in real life. Help him out by giving him an opening in which to tell you (or show you) that he likes you.

Flirt with him in a not-so-casual way. Touch him lightly on the shoulder or the arm when speaking and lean in. Look directly into his eyes and smile. You can even make eye contact across the room and smile to send a clear message. For guys, eyes and a direct smile is like a beacon of light – they know where they stand and will come hither (if they are interested in return.)

Provide an Opening

Even when you know a guy likes you, and he’s done his best to let you know by finding an excuse to stop by your lunch table or send you a funny email, you might have to give him another opening to actual step things up a notch. If you’re in school, pass him your number and ask him to give you a call so you can talk about the latest science project. If you’re at a party, find an excuse to walk outside together so he can ask for your number. You might even mention that a group is going to IHOP and does he want to come? If he says yes without looking panic-stricken, you can safely assume the boy likes you.

Easy Step By Step

• Watch a guy for clues he might be interested
• Send him openings in the form of flirting and conversations that let him know you’re interested in return
• If he’s truly interested, he’ll respond to your messages and it might be the start of a beautiful relationship

Warnings, Advice, and Suggestions

When a guy cares about his buddy, he teases him and calls him names. He will practically ridicule a guy friend to show how close they are. If a guy is suddenly picking on you or seems to be pestering you all the time with sick jokes, stupid stories and a constant presence, you can assume he is probably interested in you and just doesn’t know how to actually talk to a girl rather than another guy.
