How can you tell whether a guy likes you or not?

<p>This may apply to cherrbarry and everyone else who is in this situation</p>

<p>my friend, when she likes a guy, starts ignoring him. She is REALLY shy, and so she didn't want to act "herself" in case she seemed stupid or whatever. So she liked this guy, and totally ignored him when he flirted with her. A few weeks ago, she called him and gave him this whole speech about what her "shyness" and now they are going out! harar!</p>

<p>what is with the head tilting thing? Do you not look at the person while you talk? i'm confused.</p>

<p>Head tilt as in....still looking forward, but with ear closer to shoulder so that face is sort of on a diagonal.</p>

<p>Hold on, what does it mean when a guy plays with your hair? and deliberately hangs out around you (like circling around you...) when you are in a group with other kids? certainly like an interest or crush huh?</p>

<p>Oh, I have the weirdest attitude toward guys I like. I'm super shy with the guys I like but I don't have the faintest courage to tell them I like them. But what's worst, I often act so rude and mean to them for no purpose whatsoever and leading them to think I dislike them rather than I like them. <em>sighs</em></p>

<p>if a guy offers you something does it mean he is interested in you? </p>

<p>Both of us were in the library studying really late, i stopped by his desk to say goodnight. he asked me what i was up to. we chatted. i told him that i was going to stay up and study some more for the test. we talked about the work we had to finish. then we smiled and looked at each other. he broke the eye contact by looking behind him (***? there was noone there...). then he turned back and asked me if i wanted a red bull that his friend got for free. he said he had a few with him. i accepted the offer. we wished each other good night and good luck. the whole conversation took about 5-10 minutes.</p>

<p>i don't know if i should read into this stuff. i don't know this guy very well. he seems like a genuinely nice person, he is always polite to me. i don't know if he is interested in me romantically or just being nice. i don't know how he acts around other girls. we don't have any common friends. he is an upperclassman. i like him. </p>

<p>thanks.</p>

<p>I don't know if this matters to you or not, but the "Red Bull" he offered you probably wasn't Red Bull if he had to check around to see if anyone's around.</p>

<p>Well, all of the above stuff was what I USED to believe in until I met this one guy. </p>

<p>So he showed all the obvious signs, we both mutually became interested in each other at the same time, so things weren't very awkward. He STARED at me, A LOT, smiled, eye contact 24/7.. he even once randomly held my hand.. okay come on! we like, drank juice out of each others' cups, (lame, i know) and all that stuff. He made me laugh and he also said my name, A LOT. And made jokes about me and made fun of me. and got nervous, ya da yada...</p>

<p>WE even exchanged phone numbers, talked to each other a little bit. </p>

<p>One day found out that he had been talking about me to my other friend and said he's not interested or something, and that he thinks I like him.
So i'm pretty much p1ssed off like none other, I stop flirting with him and he gets so mad. He knows something is up.</p>

<p>I never confronted him and things just gradually faded, we ended up just being friends, after ALL that. :sigh:</p>

<p>I can honestly say the easiest way to find out if we like you is to flat out just ask us. That or rediculous flirting work well.</p>

<p>Flat out ask a boy??? That's crazy!</p>

<h1>47 was clear, and to the point.</h1>

<p>lol. iroccoli, you're a bit old fashioned when it comes to boys, huh?</p>

<p>I try people, I try. If only I had success........:/</p>

<p>jus be like "hey, ya wanna go to dinner or something this weekend?" If he has a really lame or obvious fake excuse...he doesnt like you</p>

<p>This thread makes me smile :-)</p>

<p>I just think that boys should make the first move, that's all.</p>

<p>Since everyone here is in college you probably know about facebook...so if he hasnt change his relationship status on facebook yet should I care or is that stupid and meaningless?</p>

<p>depends on the person. if they check their facebook alot then yes it is something to consider. if not its jsut meaningless</p>

<p>this thread is quite funny.</p>

<p>btw for guys. just ask her. worst thing she can say is no.</p>

<p>for girls. try to not push us away thinking you're being too obvious. if anything we like obvious.</p>

<p>If a guy calls a girl to ask questions about homework (or if she wants to work on it together) fairly often when there are plenty of guys in his dorm he could ask (or work on it with), does that mean he thinks of you as a good friend or that he could be interested? </p>

<p>A mutual guy friend thinks that we have chemistry...but...apparently I'm socially retarded when it comes to these things and don't know what to think. </p>

<p>Also, I'm pretty much blind to most of the things people have listed so far...unless it's coming from a guy that I could be less interested in. I don't think I knew that any of the guys I've dated before were interested in me until they actually asked me out on a date, actually. I have issues. lol</p>

<p>what if you don't know that guy? or that guy is a shy and quiet guy he won't be likely to flirt with you so the sign will be harder to see.</p>

<p>Why worry about all these things? This is why you become antisocial, like me. :cool:</p>

<p>personally I can never tell when a guy's hitting on me though I can spot it from a mile if he's hitting on a friend.
But um, yeah. It depends on the guy. Some guys will be very obvious. I know guys who will tell you that they think your attractive and blabla. Sometimes though, I can't seem to take them too seriosuly.
Then there the guys who get so nervous around you that they cant say a word. I like a guy at the moment who I know likes me too. I never knew he liked me until he let it slip to a common friend. Eversince then I realized how he never EVER used to talk to me and talked to everyone else. He's bloody shy. He seems to come around to see me and be around where I am but he just won't talk. Its kind of cute, I suppose.</p>
