If you have a friend that might be more than a friend but you just aren’t sure, these signs he has a crush on you might help. I admit, it can be hard to tell sometimes, but just pay more attention next time you are with him and your answer should come. These signs that has a crush on you might not always work in every situation, but put them all together and you are golden.
1 He Texts You when He is out
One of the main signs he has a crush on you is simply if he puts time into texting you. If he is sending you cute messages or is interested in how you are doing while he is out with the boys, there is a very good chance he is smitten. If a guy is out with the boys, he will not message you unless you are on his mind. And if you are on his mind… well that’s pretty obvious, he likes you.
2 He Gets Nervous
A guy will NOT get nervous around a girl without having some sort of feelings for her. So, if you notice your crush gets a little sweaty from the forehead, or stumbles over his words around you, chances are pretty good he has a thing for you.
If you find him slightly touching your shoulder or placing his hand on the low of your back, which can be a strong sign he has a thing for you. A guy friend wont be overly touchy or go out of his way to stand next to you in a group. If you find him always next to you and paying close attention to your needs within a group of friends, well you should know the rest.
4 He Invites You out
Guys are pretty territorial. So if you get to meet his crew and some of his close friends, it means you are in. Whether it is for a serious thing or not, the point is that you are in. This is a great way to then get close with his friends who will then talk to him about you. If this guy is calling to invite you out to the Friday night get together at his friends, you can count that as a very good sign!
5 His Eye Contact
Do you find him staring (lovingly not creepily) at you during class? Or do you often catch him being very interested in everything you say? It is because he genuinely wants to know what you are saying and he is showing interest. This is a good sign. He is taking the things you say into consideration and shows that your opinion matters.
6 He Gets Jealous of Another Guy Friend
Okay so some guy friends are pretty protective of their friends, I get that. But there is a difference, and you can tell. If you are out at a bar chatting a guy up when your ‘friend’ sees you and comes over to make sure everything is okay, yeah he is into you. If he is just a friend, he will hands down leave you alone and let you do your thing while he goes and does it with some other girl.
7 He Compliments You
Do you find him throwing out sincere compliments each time you see him? If he starts to act a little weird in that way, chances are he had a change of heart. Now this isn’t if he says you look nice, this will be constant and every time he sees you. This can also be a tell tale sign if he laughs at everything you say and starts talking about you with his friends.
8 Light Teasing
Compliments are always something that he might give you, but what about teasing? Does he tease you lightly? Does he pull some jokes on you that he knows you would find funny and plays right into your personality? It's proof that he has a crush on you!
9 Is Comfortable around You
The comfort level of a guy is really important. It's hard for a guy to open up around friends that are girls, much less sink into a routine. If your friend is so comfortable around you that he opens up so, so much -- that's a sign that he has a crush on you and likes you more than just a friend!
10 Knows Your Likes & Dislikes
While your friends do know your likes and dislikes, he takes it one step further and knows the perfect Christmas and Birthday gift to get you. He makes mental files of exactly what you like, dislike and things you've mentioned.
11 Pays Attention
Not only does he know your favorite food, your ideal vacation but he pays attention to the small things in your life. What really makes you happy -- inside and out!
If these subtle signs haven't told you one way or the other how he feels, you may have to gather your courage and make a move! But hopefully, you have a good idea from these tips, and if so, which do you find most helpful?

Jang Hi... I just would like to ask... I have this 2 guy friends at work. I can say that both are good looking, in fact I heard a lot of my co workers had a crush to the both of them. So the scenario is like this, I had a crush to 1 of them, We teased each other and I fall in love with him when we leaved together in an apartment (our rooms are adjacent to each other) so, I have seen his way of living and it made me like him more. We usually teased each other like were couple, even calling each other as BABE, I was even shocked to see that he changed my name in his phonebook as Babe... We text but not all the time, he gives me food and is caring... he even invited me in his house and sometimes to go out with him in a family dinner in which I both decline but I met his sister already. until now, were still like this and sometimes it confuses me, what do you think is happening? On the other hand, the other guy is kinda my ideal type, tall, handsome and intelligent. We have a nickname for each other and everytime we meet each other he would put his shoulder around me and play with my hair... he is also very caring and would tease me all the time, I evn told him to stop teasing me and he told me he just doing it because he loves me, what do he mean by that? Until now I'm still clueless about the 2 of them.....what do you think girls?
H Hmm. I dont know but my crush does some nice things, he gave his jacket to me because im cold,shares his musics to me,he touches my hand and compares it to his hand, he sat beside me but im not really sure if he is into me because i always see him texting someone even in during class hours and many girls said that he is just a flirty guy but i really like him. can someone give an advice
Arianna Can someone help me? This guy has been staring at me for a year and a half...Started on the first day of class and he kept turning around and looking towards my direction. He keeps staring and he's always tried to come close in the hallways. If the hallway is empty comes close and stuff, and once he actually tried to come in my view because i was lost in thought. He's done the friend check out thing also. But I'm not sure if he actually likes me. I've been trying to avoid eye contact with him as I don't know what he wants. So I don't know if he stares anymore! It's infuriating as I want him to tell me what he wants! He stares for long period of times does "causal glances" in the hallways, we always make eye contact in the hallway. And I don't know if this still happens as school has ended. He's laid back and last I was told he wasn't looking for relationships and then apparently he kissed a girl (could be rumour not sure). I find him good looking and all but I want to know his intentions! Please help me!! And sometimes when I'm lost in thought or not paying attention or just sad I feel him staring. He hangs out with the sweetest girls I know and they are so much prettier than me and smarter! Why is he doing this??
Danielle i like a boy but he and i give eye contact .... And we don not text
Vina Yes that's true when is comes to this,during in your life with someone that you had a crush with 😐
JustHayHay44 3/11 sigh... I've had a crush on him for 5 years, and I can't get over him. He is so amazing and he is perfect to me, but I don't think he likes me.
MhizKenni i haven't met d guy b4 but with this signs.....i know he has a crush on me nd i like him too.....any advice??
Lilibeth There's this one guy, I am confused and I don't want to assume that he likes me, but I was so shocked when he unexpectedly asked me this question and I quote Why don't you like me? prior to this question and answer portion, 2 days before me and my friends were having conversations about my ideal husband so I said I like a tall guy then suddenly he came and butt in , one of my friends asked his height and he said he's 6'1 so I said I like 6'3 and when it comes to the eyes I said I like hazel eyes and he responded quickly that's the color of my eyes and then I said oh then I want dark brown eyes but I was just kidding that time because after that we were laughing, then I was so shocked when he approached me 2 days after that conversations, and asked me that shocking question "Why don't you like me? I was speechless and don't know what to say I thought he was like playing around but he said he's serious to know, so I said no it’s not that way, I told him I was just kidding, then after that conversation he said so we're now friends? I said sure and now I am experiencing all of these signs from him, but I don't want to jump into conclusion and I don't want to assume that he's interested in me, What should I do to know if he's into me?
XxNabzxX BeatrizChon- I think you should stay as far away as possible from this guy. No matter how hard that is for you, you have to be strong... Stand your ground, don't do anything out of character and don't change your morals for a guy like him! If he says he like you an then flirts with some other girls, then he clearly doesn't deserve to have someone like you!! You deserve way better!! #girlpower! Xx
XxNabzxX Oh my god!! Every single one of these apply to the guy who I was thinking of!!! It's freaky how accurate this was! Thank you and keep posting great stuff like this! Xx
Kan Ok so there is this kid who's locker is one section over. And everytime I walk past him he stares at me and I see him in the cornor of my eyes and when I look at hm he quickly looks away. I went to the school library during lunch me and my friends where looking at the senior's projects ( I go to a jr sr high) and he was on the other side of the room and he came right next to me and moved really close to me. And to day. Was at my locker and I dropped most of my stuff and I forgot a paper and he like darted up to me and handed me it a studdered saying you forgot this. I for got to mention he and his friends sit by us durin lunch but not really close and when I get up he stares at me more. And sometimes his friend that ik sometimes bumps his over to me when we walk by in the halls and not like a big bump but like nodge and he also whispers to him something. By the way he makes a lot of eye contact with me too. Bt I don't really know if I lik him thank you to the people who actually read that lol
Kan Sorry for the spelling I type fast
Morgan so wt if i know a guy who showed all the signs but now hasnt txted me i in like a week and a half or longer should i be worried wt do i do its been three days since i texted him. HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! what do i do?????0
Kaylee this helps a lot!! thank you!!!
Anaa So I know of a boy who's in drama this year with me, and he has the lead part again. He just turned 16, and I'm only 2 years younger than him. I'm also in the play, and we always have some cute, and some awkward eye contacts, but I'm not sure if they mean anything. I've talked to him before, but we didn't really say much. It was more of just a, "Your hair is cute." And a "Thank you." And what-not. But with me being younger, and totally head over heels for him, I don't know how to actually talk to him and be friends with him at first. I have many opportunities to say things, but I don't really know what to do. I'm just confused if he thinks I'm too young, or doesn't want to talk to me because of it.
katie SOMEONE GIVE ME ADVICE!!!!!!!! There is this guy I like and he sits in front of my in class and I always stare at his back. Im really shy and I blush really easily so I try to avoid him but I keep staring at his back. One night we were talking off instagram and he got the permission to ask me one question I had to answer honestly (long story ). So he DM me "who do you like in our class, no saying nobody" I totally freaked out but I found the force to admit I liked him and then he told me he had a secret crush on me too I totally freaked out (dha!) So now I don't know what to do, he is shy around me now and he wants to know what to do."do we take it to the next level or keep it a secret?" He asked me. WHAT DO I RESPOND? PLEASE HELP ME!!!!!!!
MsDesignDiva @katie, you've already both admitted that you like each other so why not give it a chance and date the poor boy. Since he's shy and you're shy I take it you're both introverts. Look into what movies are available in your area, and invite him out to a movie or a walk in a park (if you need something that costs nothing, it's a great first date option). Either way, do something, just keep it chill. No reason to be getting overly emotional or right away changing your status on facebook.
Liana Does anybody have any advice? There is this guy that i've worked with for 2 years now. Ive always sorta had a crush on him, but it's been more intense lately. Now, I have this laugh that I only do when I'm at home with my family and I accidentally did it in front of him. He kind of made fun of it a little bit, but now he just teases me about it. Also, one night at work in front of everyone, I gripped his face lightly for only a few seconds with both hands. He didn't back away or move my hands or anything. I honestly can't tell if he's into me or not. PLEASE HELP!
Alys K so theres this guy in my class that i have a crush on and one day i caught him starin at me.. I was clueless i didnt know what to do weve kindof stared to each other for like 3.5 secs and looked away. Gawdd can someone tell me what this means ofcourse im like assuming that he likes me back but im so confused 😳
Liana @Alys, I think he likes you, but I would suggest going over and talking to him. Start off slow and easy, like talking about homework from the night before and just ease into it!
Jenia Hey, my situation is a bit complicated. I was taking a course and I met a guy there and we've become good friends, we used to hang out every night during the last 2 weeks of the course. He was worried for me because my self esteem hit the floor like an old Nokia phone, and it just wont get up. I'm also super socially awkward and I have a huge problem talking to people, making physical contact and eye contact etc. I'm also considered a freak and a weirdo in the environment I'm usually in. He keeps saying what an amazing person I am and that I dont deserve this treatment from anyone, especially not myself. He decided to take manners into his own hands, and try to help me feel better about myself and stop me from being suicidal. Why am I saying all this? Everything on this list is things I experience from him. Every single sign on here applies to him. I fell in love with him, by the way. But I'm 100% sure he doesn't love me back, and he doesn't have a crush on me or anything, because to him, he does all this to make me feel better. And I'm frustrated because I sometimes can't figure out his intentions. After the course we've been meeting up on a regular basis every time we can. I was with him on New Year's eve, and I got so confused because close to midnight he was acting as if something's going to happen, I thought he'd kiss me, but he gave me a hug a wished me a fantastic year. I get so confused around him sometimes, he's sending mixed signals. Anyways... I don't know what to do and it freaks me out, I'm sorry for the super long post but I just felt like this is some place someone will actually help me with this, I mean, you post stuff like that so maybe you know better. Great article by the way, thank you.

Nicole HELP. I've been talking to this guy named Tim.. He's a couple years older than me and I really like him.. He goes to my youth group, he plays guitar, he sings, he has an extremely nice body and I feel like he's totally out of my league 😔 I'm usually the one to txt him first but every time he sees me in school there's not a time where he won't shout my name and say hi. Which I always get the hopeless butterflies.. At lunch he'll usually stop and sit on the outside bench and sit where me and my friend do and I've noted that his body is completely turned towards me. But a while back when I asked him if he liked me (over txt) he said he didn't like anyone. And I've complimented him quite a bit but he never compliments me.. I really like this guy.. We haven't talked for a couple days and I haven't txted him but I really need so guidance 💔 please help.
Chelsea @Nicole I'd try flirting. He liked you before so all you need to do is wake up those feelings again. Start talking again, but maybe verbally, that might help. Hope this helps!
Janie Okay...so I met this guy at my church and he's new and all and me and him immediately started talking nonstop. But the problem is that his friend has a crush on me and my parents adore him. My older brother doesn't really like the new guy I met ( whose name is Julian ) he even threatened Julian that if he ever talked to me again he would beat him up'! ): but recently there was a tiny church reunion and he was there...^~^ I went to the kitchen to get a water bottle and he came up to me and we started talking again. He said he didn't care what my brother said and that he will talk to me because he likes talking to me...and when i said i have to go he immediately got sad and said " why? Where you going?" So I stayed and we talked more..plus I always make him laugh and he always makes me laugh. His smile is amazing'!!! <3 but this girl ( who I don't really like confessed to me that she likes Julian ) I felt weird when she told me that and angry...is that okay'? And I noticed that Julian always stares and smiles at me...and I think I'm starting to really like him...could he like me back'? And if he does....we wouldn't be able to date because of my brother and parents...what can I do'? Please I really am confused'!!! Does he like me'? 💗💕
Chelsea @Janie hey, don't know if the last message got through but, I think he defiantly likes you! I'd just tell you brother that he's a really nice guy and that you like him, he's just protecting you. Make sure you let the guy know who's crushing on you that your not interested. Julian sounds like a really nice guy, so don't let him go because of anyone else. Just be careful! I hope this helped and I wish you the best!
Nouf Yeeeessssssassss💃💃💃 thank U💋
Lesoneil :sticker_no_way:
Daphne 😋
Foolish the fact the he does all the things in the list <3
Sarah I also i have an issue! There is this guy. Well in the past he has done THINGS with girls and i dont know how to feel about it. Im trying to not look back into his past and move forward. Im just scared he will get bored of me! We were hanging out the other day and i told him how i felt. He said that he is hard to figure out and maybe acting like a "wife" would help. Im trying to get to know him better but it is very hard to when he will not text me often. What should i do!

Abby SOMEONE PLEASE HELP ME so this morning i check my email and he says hi i sort of have a crush on you i think you're cool,pretty,and nice. how do i respond to him without it sounding creepy and desperate?
Abby I'm not 100% sure if i like him or not :(
Aliyah I think a boy likes me He is always hugging me and very jealous of anyone who hugs me he is always look at me it's getting creepy😍❤
Payton @Aliyah duh he likes u
Megan So there is this guy and we have talked a few times, the first time he asked questions he already knew the answers too, and after asking he was like wait haha never mind, and the second time he butted into a conversation I was having with a friend and started asking where I was from and were he lived close by. Then all of the sudden he stopped talking to me and now when he see\'s me he looks down or away. I\'m so lost. Can someone help me?
Denise Hi Megan. Unfortunately, only he can help you understand why he suddenly stopped talking to you. Try asking him.
Hannah What if the guy is really shy, are the signs different?
Kenia I like this one guy but he has a girlfriend, we spend all of our p.e. class talking and we always partner up. He touches my lower back and shoulders all the time. We play this game of poking each others stomach (hard) and its sort of like a conquest. He helps me up when I'm sitting down and is always trying to be around me,looking at me, and just trying to make me laugh. He told me I'm his bestfriend. But I like him a lot... The thing is I don't think he would ever cheat on his girlfriend, he seems to like her a lot. What should I do?
Kenia @Hannah Shuler, I guess they would...
Ysabella Well I like this guy… but I'm not sure if he likes me. We go to different schools and at games, we chat here and there, but when I text him, I don't get a reply!! He checks it but doesn't answer, or whatever. But I am getting frustrated a bit. 😫
Jess There is a super cute guy in my p.e. class and i smile and make eye contact with him and he smiles back! But i dont know what to say to start up a convo. I always get super nervous around a crush tho, so that makes it harder! I know his name, but i dont think he knows that i know. And i dont think he knows my name? Any advice?
Liana @Jess, you could also "accidentally" hit him with something, then go over to apologize.
Kenia @Jess, just pretend he is one of your friends, it works for me! Or accidentally bump into him and say " oh my bad ummm.. _____ (his name) ". That should get a conversation going, or at least get him to recognize you!:)
Sam Girl talk! I once knew a guy who said he "doesn't get jealous" do you think this is actually possible? Is it possible that some men don't have even the slightest jealous streak in them? I find it a little improbable.
Arexandra @Sam - yess, there are sometimes that men realy don't get jealous.. Beacause they are understanding and they know it is not proper to get jealous on a not appropriate thing.
Scarlett And also, when I first met him, we all exchanged numbers (him, the acquaintance, and me)
Scarlett A couple months back, I was helping an acquaintance b/c her locker got jammed, and this guy walks up to us and talks to us. The three of us ended up having a nice conversation, and I gave them both my number for "future inspiring conversations". I ended up texting the guy a lot, and did not receive anything from the girl. So, the guy and I became friends. We have eye contact in the halls, and hug regularly. I sat at his lunch table for a while, and he seemed to be patiently waiting to regain my attention every time I talked to his friends. He also cleans his glasses and stuff around me, but has never complimented me. We only text at set times. If I check my phone when it's not the set time, there are NO TEXTS from him. I just want to know, WHAT IS GOING ON???? Does he like me or not?
Denise Hi Scarlett. I obviously can't tell how he feels about you from what you've shared, but there seems to be something between you and the guy. Have you tried flirting with him? Have you tried asking him to hang out with you, just the two of you?
Madz 5. His eye contact. OMG massive thing lately. I have caught a 'friends' eye staring at me quite alot now but I dont like him in that way AT ALL. It's really awkward. Idk if it means anything and in a way I hope it doesnt. 😁 Anyway, all of these are very helpful so thankyou alot 😊
Chelsea @Madz just make Sure you make it clear to him that you're just friends
Mina I like someone, but I don't talk to him >< We make eye contact though, like in the halls and I do catch him starting. Does that mean anything?
Heather It might! I think you need to actually talk to him though.
kiki Nice 😍
Zana Go Radio. I love that band. That's one of their album covers up there. Yeah.
Jeanette Nice blog.. I have this experience with someone :)
