If you notice that a guy seems to have a crush on you, how do you know for sure? Luckily, there are many subtle signs that a guy likes someone. Pay attention to his body language, the way he talks and behaves with you when you’re around him. Read on for this detailed list of signs a guy has a crush on you to know when to move on!
- Look for cues in his body language like eye contact and leaning towards you when talking. He will also take the initiative to have more physical contact with you.
- Consider his behavior, such as how quickly he responds to your texts, whether he seems jealous of other guys.
- Consider his affectionate gestures in conversation; he will often ask a lot of questions to get to know you better and give you sincere compliments.
Steps
He makes eye contact with you
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/4/4b/Find-Out-if-a-Guy-Secretly-Likes-You-Step-2-Version-2.jpg/ v4-460px-Find-Out-if-a-Guy-Secretly-Likes-You-Step-2-Version-2.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/ 4/4b/Find-Out-if-a-Guy-Secretly-Likes-You-Step-2-Version-2.jpg/v4-728px-Find-Out-if-a-Guy-Secretly-Likes-You- Step-2-Version-2.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:345,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:546,”licensing”:”<div class=”mw-parser-output “></div>”}
A long pause in his gaze is a sign that he likes you. The next time you see him, look for his eyes and notice if he looks back at you or away. Most people only look at each other for about 4-5 seconds at a time during a conversation. So, if he holds your gaze for longer than that, he probably likes you! [1] X Research Source
- Conversely, some people are uncomfortable with eye contact. If you know he’s a little shy, don’t despair; There are other signs that indicate if he has a crush on you.
- If you’re a little shy, ask him a question to give him an excuse to look him in the eye. You can ask, “How far is Quang with the essay he assigned last week?” or “Do you know any canteens open today?”
He smiles when he meets you
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/4/44/Find-Out-if-a-Guy-Secretly-Likes-You-Step-1-Version-2.jpg/ v4-460px-Find-Out-if-a-Guy-Secretly-Likes-You-Step-1-Version-2.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/ 4/44/Find-Out-if-a-Guy-Secretly-Likes-You-Step-1-Version-2.jpg/v4-728px-Find-Out-if-a-Guy-Secretly-Likes-You- Step-1-Version-2.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:345,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:546,”licensing”:”<div class=”mw-parser-output “></div>”}
People will naturally smile when they meet someone they like. So, if that guy notices you, he’ll be overjoyed when he sees you. Glance at his face when you walk into the room to see if he’s smiling. A bright, happy smile is a sign that he likes you, and he’ll probably smile and laugh out loud during your conversation, too. [2] X Research Source
- Notice how he smiles at others. Does he do the same with everyone, or does he just seem especially happy to see you?
He stole a glance at you
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/5/52/Find-Out-if-a-Guy-Secretly-Likes-You-Step-3-Version-2.jpg/ v4-460px-Find-Out-if-a-Guy-Secretly-Likes-You-Step-3-Version-2.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/ 5/52/Find-Out-if-a-Guy-Secretly-Likes-You-Step-3-Version-2.jpg/v4-728px-Find-Out-if-a-Guy-Secretly-Likes-You- Step-3-Version-2.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:345,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:546,”licensing”:”<div class=”mw-parser-output “></div>”}
If a boy has a crush on someone, he will often look at that person. He doesn’t even realize how much he’s showing off his admiration for you! Try to catch him by suddenly looking back at him. If you catch him staring at you and he blushes or smiles and quickly looks away, then he obviously likes you. [3] X Research Sources
- Only check once or twice every time you’re around him. If you keep glancing at him every now and then, he might think he’s being stared at.
- Another way is to ask a trusted friend to notice if he’s looking at you. They can discreetly observe and tell you back.
He leans towards you when talking
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/f/f2/Find-Out-if-a-Guy-Secretly-Likes-You-Step-4-Version-2.jpg/ v4-460px-Find-Out-if-a-Guy-Secretly-Likes-You-Step-4-Version-2.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/ f/f2/Find-Out-if-a-Guy-Secretly-Likes-You-Step-4-Version-2.jpg/v4-728px-Find-Out-if-a-Guy-Secretly-Likes-You- Step-4-Version-2.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:345,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:546,”licensing”:”<div class=”mw-parser-output “></div>”}
A guy who has a crush on you will want to get close to you. The guy who likes you will also be interested in what you have to say. Therefore, he will lean in close to you every time he talks to you. Watch his body language to see if he’s leaning towards you. You can move a little away to see if he tries to get closer. If so, then he must be secretly in love with you. [4] X Research Sources
He repeats your movements
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/d/d4/Find-Out-if-a-Guy-Secretly-Likes-You-Step-5-Version-3.jpg/ v4-460px-Find-Out-if-a-Guy-Secretly-Likes-You-Step-5-Version-3.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/ d/d4/Find-Out-if-a-Guy-Secretly-Likes-You-Step-5-Version-3.jpg/v4-728px-Find-Out-if-a-Guy-Secretly-Likes-You- Step-5-Version-3.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:345,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:546,”licensing”:”<div class=”mw-parser-output “></div>”}
People often mirror the actions of the person they like unconsciously. Mirroring is when someone discreetly imitates you, speaking in the same tone of voice and moving as you. Is he copying your posture? When you make a small gesture, does he do it after just a few seconds? If yes, then he probably likes you! [5] X Research Sources
- Try turning your head to look out a window or something in the room. Does he do the same as you? A guy who is secretly in love with you will also look where you look because he’s so focused on you.
He gently touches you
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/3/35/Find-Out-if-a-Guy-Secretly-Likes-You-Step-5-Version-2.jpg/ v4-460px-Find-Out-if-a-Guy-Secretly-Likes-You-Step-5-Version-2.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/ 3/35/Find-Out-if-a-Guy-Secretly-Likes-You-Step-5-Version-2.jpg/v4-728px-Find-Out-if-a-Guy-Secretly-Likes-You- Step-5-Version-2.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:345,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:546,”licensing”:”<div class=”mw-parser-output “></div>”}
He will find excuses to touch you when he wants to be more intimate with you. Physical contact is one way of showing affection, and a guy in love will find any excuse to do it! Notice if he touches your arm, bumps into you, or moves to stand next to you. Hugs are also a clear sign that he likes you. [6] X Research Sources
- He also won’t back down when you step into his personal space. He’ll even encourage small touches and even lean in if he likes you!
- If a guy is making touching that you’re uncomfortable with, you can always tell him to stop. Get help from someone you trust if he doesn’t listen.
He seems nervous or embarrassed
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/3/33/Find-Out-if-a-Guy-Secretly-Likes-You-Step-6-Version-2.jpg/ v4-460px-Find-Out-if-a-Guy-Secretly-Likes-You-Step-6-Version-2.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/ 3/33/Find-Out-if-a-Guy-Secretly-Likes-You-Step-6-Version-2.jpg/v4-728px-Find-Out-if-a-Guy-Secretly-Likes-You- Step-6-Version-2.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:345,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:546,”licensing”:”<div class=”mw-parser-output “></div>”}
He’s trying to make an impression, but he’s nervous. Talking to someone you have a crush on can be stressful at times! At this point, a guy who normally speaks fluently can suddenly stutter or make a mess. If he can’t seem to speak a sentence fluently to you but seems comfortable talking to other people, then he’s probably secretly in love with you. [7] X Research Sources
- For example, he suddenly responds curtly or just says “yes/no” even though he usually likes to talk. He may also stutter or forget what he was going to say.
- Watch out for other awkward gestures, too. He may crack his fingers, scratch his head, or move restlessly while talking to you.
He talks to you every day
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/c/ce/Find-Out-if-a-Guy-Secretly-Likes-You-Step-8-Version-2.jpg/ v4-460px-Find-Out-if-a-Guy-Secretly-Likes-You-Step-8-Version-2.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/ c/ce/Find-Out-if-a-Guy-Secretly-Likes-You-Step-8-Version-2.jpg/v4-728px-Find-Out-if-a-Guy-Secretly-Likes-You- Step-8-Version-2.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:345,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:546,”licensing”:”<div class=”mw-parser-output “></div>”}
The guy who likes you won’t sit around waiting for you to come. So he won’t hesitate to start a conversation with you if given the opportunity. Notice how many times he initiates communication with you by walking up to you to talk to you, making plans, or sending you short texts. If he does this often, at least as often as you (if not more), then he probably likes you. [8] X Research Sources
- For example, he might sit next to you in class and start a conversation, “How are you?” or “How was your test last week?”
- He might also text you on a nice Saturday, “What are you doing?” or “Are you busy tomorrow? Let’s do this with me!”
He wants to be near you
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/6/61/Find-Out-if-a-Guy-Secretly-Likes-You-Step-9-Version-2.jpg/ v4-460px-Find-Out-if-a-Guy-Secretly-Likes-You-Step-9-Version-2.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/ 6/61/Find-Out-if-a-Guy-Secretly-Likes-You-Step-9-Version-2.jpg/v4-728px-Find-Out-if-a-Guy-Secretly-Likes-You- Step-9-Version-2.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:345,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:546,”licensing”:”<div class=”mw-parser-output “></div>”}
He will actively approach you because he really likes you. When two people go out together, he will never come back first. He will always be by your side, whether it’s just the two of you or in a group. He even pops up in random places where he knows you’re going to see you.
- For example, he might show up at your favorite coffee shop or mall because he knows you like those places.
- If the two of you are going to a party, he will also stay there until you leave even though the other friends have left first. He even offered to take you home.
- He will also try to get to know your friends. He likes you so he wants to please your friends too!
He asks you many open-ended questions
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/5/51/Find-Out-if-a-Guy-Secretly-Likes-You-Step-8.jpg/v4-460px- Find-Out-if-a-Guy-Secretly-Likes-You-Step-8.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/5/51/Find-Out- if-a-Guy-Secretly-Likes-You-Step-8.jpg/v4-728px-Find-Out-if-a-Guy-Secretly-Likes-You-Step-8.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460 ,”smallHeight”:345,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:546,”licensing”:”<div class=”mw-parser-output”></div>”}
When a guy has his eye on you, he’ll want to learn about your life. Open-ended questions require more than just “yes” or “no,” and you will have to elaborate. Notice if he asks you a lot of personal questions about anything and everything, like what you like and don’t like, or what your situation is. It means he’s trying to learn more about you, down to the tiniest details. [9] X Research Source
- He might ask questions like “What do you like to do in your free time?” “What bands do you like?” “Do you have a pet?” or “How many siblings do you have?”
- You can also ask him questions! Exchange questions can help two parties understand each other better and strengthen the bond.
He didn’t talk about other girls.
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/c/c4/Find-Out-if-a-Guy-Secretly-Likes-You-Step-9.jpg/v4-460px- Find-Out-if-a-Guy-Secretly-Likes-You-Step-9.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/c/c4/Find-Out- if-a-Guy-Secretly-Likes-You-Step-9.jpg/v4-728px-Find-Out-if-a-Guy-Secretly-Likes-You-Step-9.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460 ,”smallHeight”:345,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:546,”licensing”:”<div class=”mw-parser-output”></div>”}
When a guy likes you, he tries to reduce the competition around him. Notice how often he talks about people other than his close friends and family. If you’re a girl, he probably doesn’t talk about other girls often, and the same is true if you’re a boy. He wants you to know that you’re the only one he likes! [10] X Research Source
- In fact, your guy may even hint that he’s single. Comments on his relationship status like “Finding my other half,” or “Still flying alone” signal that he is still free.
He compliments you
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/8/89/Find-Out-if-a-Guy-Secretly-Likes-You-Step-11.jpg/v4-460px- Find-Out-if-a-Guy-Secretly-Likes-You-Step-11.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/8/89/Find-Out- if-a-Guy-Secretly-Likes-You-Step-11.jpg/v4-728px-Find-Out-if-a-Guy-Secretly-Likes-You-Step-11.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460 ,”smallHeight”:345,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:546,”licensing”:”<div class=”mw-parser-output”></div>”}
If he likes you, he can’t help but praise you. Notice how often he compliments you and what his compliments are. Then hear how he compliments others. He’s more likely to like you if he compliments you more often than others and with small details that others don’t. [11] X Research Source
- For example, if you change your hairstyle, your guy will be the first to notice and say “Wow, you look so pretty today!” Try complimenting him back!
- He might say other compliments about how you look, like, “You have a great pair of glasses!” or “I love that band t-shirt. Where did you buy it?”
- He might also compliment deeper things like your intelligence or talent, like, “You’re so smart! I’ve never seen anyone read as fast as you”, or “You know what, you’re the best flute player in the band!”
He supports you
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/f/f9/Find-Out-if-a-Guy-Secretly-Likes-You-Step-16.jpg/v4-460px- Find-Out-if-a-Guy-Secretly-Likes-You-Step-16.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/f/f9/Find-Out- if-a-Guy-Secretly-Likes-You-Step-16.jpg/v4-728px-Find-Out-if-a-Guy-Secretly-Likes-You-Step-16.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460 ,”smallHeight”:345,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:546,”licensing”:”<div class=”mw-parser-output”></div>”}
When a guy likes you, he will try to show that you can rely on him. It can sometimes be awkward to say that he likes someone, so he can show his love by encouraging you, showing interest in your passions, standing by you, and helping you out when needed. He’s trying to say that you’ll always have his backing, no matter what, because he likes you! [12] X Research Source
- For example, he might help you with your homework, carry your luggage, or fix your car.
- Similarly, he can give you advice when you’re wondering about something or give you a shoulder to lean on when you’re having a hard time.
He listens attentively to you
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/b/b3/Find-Out-if-a-Guy-Secretly-Likes-You-Step-14-Version-2.jpg/ v4-460px-Find-Out-if-a-Guy-Secretly-Likes-You-Step-14-Version-2.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/ b/b3/Find-Out-if-a-Guy-Secretly-Likes-You-Step-14-Version-2.jpg/v4-728px-Find-Out-if-a-Guy-Secretly-Likes-You- Step-14-Version-2.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:345,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:546,”licensing”:”<div class=”mw-parser-output “></div>”}
He will be completely focused on you because he finds you very attractive! A guy who likes you won’t look at his phone or be distracted while you’re talking; He will want to hear everything you have to say. Pay attention to the signs that he is actively listening to you. If he never interrupts, encourage you to continue with sounds like “um” and “and then what?” That means he’s completely focused on you. [13] X Research Source
- You’ll also notice that he remembers your answers. One day he may buy you his favorite snack or ask you to borrow the book you once mentioned to show he’s listening to you.
- Does he remember things you used to say even though you have long since forgotten? It’s a clear sign that he’s paying attention when he’s talking to you.
He asks for your opinion
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/6/68/Find-Out-if-a-Guy-Secretly-Likes-You-Step-12.jpg/v4-460px- Find-Out-if-a-Guy-Secretly-Likes-You-Step-12.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/6/68/Find-Out- if-a-Guy-Secretly-Likes-You-Step-12.jpg/v4-728px-Find-Out-if-a-Guy-Secretly-Likes-You-Step-12.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460 ,”smallHeight”:345,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:546,”licensing”:”<div class=”mw-parser-output”></div>”}
Asking your opinion means that he respects you and wants to impress you. Notice how often he asks for your opinion or advice. He might ask what hairstyle he should wear or what shirt he should wear to a special event. He may also ask you about how to deal with the exercise or choose which movies to watch with friends.
- When a guy likes you, he’ll also show you he’s taking your advice. For example, he shows up the next day in your chosen shirt or raves about a great book you recommend.
He seems jealous of other guys
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/7/75/Find-Out-if-a-Guy-Secretly-Likes-You-Step-13.jpg/v4-460px- Find-Out-if-a-Guy-Secretly-Likes-You-Step-13.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/7/75/Find-Out- if-a-Guy-Secretly-Likes-You-Step-13.jpg/v4-728px-Find-Out-if-a-Guy-Secretly-Likes-You-Step-13.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460 ,”smallHeight”:345,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:546,”licensing”:”<div class=”mw-parser-output”></div>”}
He gets jealous when he sees someone he thinks you might like. Try mentioning a guy among your friends to see how he reacts. Did he ask a bunch of questions about that guy? If he likes you, he’ll probably get jealous when you mention someone else and will ask you to know more about that mysterious guy and your relationship with him. [14] X Research Source
- He can ask “Who is Hai?” “How long have you known Hai?” “What does Hai do?” or “Do you and Hai often go out?”
- If you want to date this guy, dispel his jealousy and tell him that the other guy is just a friend and not someone you want to date. Otherwise, he might think you’re dating someone else.
He quickly responds to your messages
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/8/8d/Find-Out-if-a-Guy-Secretly-Likes-You-Step-17-Version-2.jpg/ v4-460px-Find-Out-if-a-Guy-Secretly-Likes-You-Step-17-Version-2.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/ 8/8d/Find-Out-if-a-Guy-Secretly-Likes-You-Step-17-Version-2.jpg/v4-728px-Find-Out-if-a-Guy-Secretly-Likes-You- Step-17-Version-2.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:345,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:546,”licensing”:”<div class=”mw-parser-output “></div>”}
Quick text replies are his way of showing you how much he likes you. If he likes you, he will respond to you very quickly. Notice if your guy is always quick to respond and explain when he’s been silent for a while. This is a sign that he likes you. [15] X Research Source
- For example, he might reply to your text immediately (or after a few minutes). If it takes more than 10 minutes to respond, he can add, “Sorry for the late reply. I’m busy at work!”
- Remember that it’s normal to be late to text messages during school or work hours.
- He’ll also send random texts just to check on you; That’s his way of keeping a close relationship with you.
