Want to find how to know if a guy likes you for real? And you don’t know if he’s the one you’re looking for or not? So, keep reading, we’ll show you the signs a guy is into you.
Perhaps you have a male colleague or a guy friend that has piqued your interest and has grabbed your attention. If you’re anything like the majority of women, you’re probably wondering if this guy is as interested in you as you are in him.
It can be quite a daunting process to try to read guys. Men do not show their fondness for someone the same way women do. Women are more expressive; they show their feelings and speak their minds. So between the mixed signals, replaying interactions over and over again in your mind, and over-analyzing every single conversation, you probably have become confused as to whether your crush reciprocates your feelings or not.
Without further ado, here are seven signs that a man likes a woman.
How to tell if your man likes you?
1. Teasing you
Ladies, we have been told this since we were in elementary school – if a guy gently teases you or even picks on you just a bit, it means he is attracted to you and/or has an interest in you. Even as an adult, a man will still go out of his way to pick on the woman he likes for silly things.
He might do it because he thinks your reaction is cute or maybe he simply enjoys the back-and-forth playful banter. Regardless, he is trying to get a reaction out of you because he has an interest in you. This is especially the case if you’re the only woman he teases and playfully jokes with.
2. He notices things about you
If a guy likes you, chances are high that he pays close attention to your overall appearance. Have you colored your hair recently? Have you been dressing differently? Whatever the case, if your crush notices a change in you and compliments you on that change, it’s a huge sign that he is interested in you. This means that he is paying special attention to how you look, which means that he is physically attracted to you.
3. Being nervous around you
A man will get a little nervous around a lady he has the hots for. Do you notice that he has sweaty palms? Does he get a bit fidgety or nervously laugh when you’re nearby? If so, these are some huge signs that you’re the apple of his eye.
Guys do not get nervous around women they are not interested in. If he’s nervous, it typically means that he is worried about making a good impression. Why would he be nervous about making a good impression if he wasn’t intrigued by you?
4. Similar interests
Have you told your crush all about your favorite television shows and the next thing you know he is watching the series on Netflix or Hulu and trying to discuss the show with you? If so, your crush is more than likely captivated by you.
If a man goes out of his way to learn about your interests and hobbies, he most likely has a keen interest in trying to find conversation starters so that he can engage with you more frequently. This is especially the case if he has never acted interested in your hobbies or interests before. If this is the case, then, you know that the guy likes you for real.
5. The guy gets jealous
While jealousy is not considered a very attractive trait, a little jealousy from your crush can be a very obvious sign that he’s smitten. Do you notice that he gets protective of you when you’re around other guys? Does he get a little standoffish with you if he notices that you’re talking to another male for a lengthy period of time?
If this is the case, your crush more than likely has the hots for you. A fellow who has no interest in you wouldn’t care if you were giving other guys your attention. One that really cares about you and has strong feelings for you will typically feel intimidated by any other guy and see him as a real threat.
6. Treating you differently than his other female friends
Do you notice that your crush is more chivalrous and honorable around you than he maybe around his other female friends? For example, does he offer to pay for your lunch or pick up the tab at a happy hour? Does he pull up the chair for you as you sit? Etc…. But he doesn’t do this for his other female pals? Does he compliment you often, but doesn’t pay compliments to other ladies he associates with?
If this is the case, he probably is crushing on you big time. There’s always a reason why a guy will give you special treatment. Usually, that reason is that he fancies you.
7. Maintaining eye contact
Eye contact and attraction are like two peas in a pod. They go hand in hand. If a guy makes prolonged eye contact with you, he most likely has a fondness for you. This is especially the case if he is flashing a huge smile while maintaining eye contact.
Another way to tell if he is inclined towards you is if you catch him staring at you (on multiple occasions) and he suddenly turns away. Though it may seem awkward and odd to you, a man who has a crush on you will secretly stare at you simply because he has a fascination with what he’s looking at. Guys will use their eyes to admire what they find beautiful.
Final word
So, dear women don’t always count on men to express their feelings. You can wait and wait and still don’t hear the magic word. Just read the signs and they will tell you what you need to know.
