How To Tell If A Boy Likes You by Uju4eva(f): 12:28am On Sep 10, 2006
I know, I know, boys should admittely go to the girl and ask them about their relationship. But many boys talk about me being ugly and everything, and is that their sign of liking me, or what? And what else, do they stare alot, I mean what?
Re: How To Tell If A Boy Likes You by rawlings(m): 12:37am On Sep 10, 2006
Check this out,
1. Their pupils are enlarged when talking with you.
The human pupil dilates when someone is excited or is having strong feelings about something. You can gauge a lot about their interest by paying attention to their eye contact. We often reveal far more than we desire through our eyes.

2. They seem to share a lot of common interests.
If someone is engaging in activities that you like to do, or making an extra effort to be a part of them, chances are they're doing it just to spend more time with you. Take notice of how often they are asking or desiring to do things with you. If it seems rather frequent, it's a good sign they are in to you.

3. They want to spend time with you over weekends and holidays. With schedules the way they usually are for people, spending time on special days like weekends and especially holidays is a very clear sign that they are interested in something more than just hanging out together. All weekend invites are not only a great way to get to know someone on a deeper level, they are also a pretty open message that they want to see if this relationship has any potential.

4. They give you a pet name.
Pet names are usually reserved for someone you have a sweet spot for. If your potential interest has decided to call you by one, you're in a pretty good position interest wise.

5. They send gifts without a reason.
This is probably the most obvious sign on this list. If they've sent you flowers or any small gift, they are trying to let you know you've gained their interest. Now the ball is in your court to signal that you want to take things a little further.

6. They do little things for you.
Do you find your potential interest going out of their way to do favors for you? Maybe they offer to run an errand or go grab something for you. You can especially tell if they are interested when you are within a group of friends. Are thet only doing the little favors for you?

7. They tell friends and family about you, or they introduce you to them. If they have talked about you to their friends and family, you can be assured you are on their dating radar. If they feel comfortable enough to introduce you to the family, you're probably looking at a potential romance. With this sign you have to gauge each situation individually. If they have a really open relationship with their family, it may not mean anything special. However, if they are usually closed off with them, they are definitely ready for something more.

There are many different ways someone will show you they are interested. You really need to take the whole situation into perspective and be aware of which method they are choosing to communicate their interest

my dear do you have self esteem problems?

God made you in his image, therefore you are beautiful, ignore all these boys
when a boy likes you, you will know. as long as y'all aint in primary school, he will be more attentive, strive to talk to you more adn possibly tells you how he feels

you are worrying too much, read your book and everything good will come.
Re: How To Tell If A Boy Likes You by Uju4eva(f): 5:16pm On Sep 10, 2006
NO I do not have self esteem problems although I make myself to be perceived as I do have them, I don't, I just wanted someone to see that, and you have done that positition,

4. They give you a pet name.
Pet names are usually reserved for someone you have a sweet spot for. If your potential interest has decided to call you by one, you're in a pretty good position interest wise.

This is probably the one i consider my strongest indication! I as a rule NEVER refer to a girl i truly like by her name, it will either be a pet name or her middle name, one that is ONLY used by me!

Other things by which you know if a guy likes you;
- you catch him staring at you a lot.
- he sometimes will avoid direct eye contact with you
- likes to be around you a lot and finds flimsy reasons to talk to you.
- ever recieved a small otherwise innocous gift from him? Men do not waste money on girls they dont fancy themselves with! Girls who recieve nothing on birthdays and valentines day take note!

nice work u no lie at all
Re: How To Tell If A Boy Likes You by drayslide(m): 5:31pm On Sep 11, 2006
this is how i look at it.women and men are different in many ways as concerining dating.the same ways which a man will find a girl atractive are not the very ways a woman will find a man attractive.comming back to the topic how to know if a guy likes u.
1)- its easy:alot of eye contacts(checking u out as its called). the guy is always going to be giving u alot of eye contac.  the first ,second and about the third or forth time his going to smile to see if the girl is friendly.but if she doesnt smile back then the guy starts know what kind of girl she is to start with. .

2)-another way  is something i hate (trying to be mr nice guy)lots of guys will want to use the mr nice guy way to give the girl the impression that he is a very nice guy.starts acting all nice to her,helping her all the time, always trying to do some nice thing, NO , NO, NO, dont do that. thats when the girl knows that u like her because ur behavior is strange and u are out for her. girls easily know  when a guy is faking out.that is (the guy is not being him self)so u spoiled every thing by being (mr nice guy).because girls like unpridictable guys, just like u are watching a movie and u already know how the movie ends up(they all die at the end)that does not make the movie intresting.but when they dont know wat u are up too then then get unsecured. embarassed

3)- when the guy call u all the time, yes thats it.when a girl gives u hare phone number and u call her 70 times a day.thats the best way a girl can know that the guy is going crazy over her at home.still with this caliing thing when a guy stays for too long talkin to on the phone even when theres nothing to talk about he just keeps on bringing up this topics from some abstract world and asking the girl so that the conversation should be a long one.

ight if u want more tips on that topic u should holla at me am going to send u to my dating advice web sit.holaa at ur boy gray grin wink

Re: How To Tell If A Boy Likes You by Uju4eva(f): 11:28pm On Sep 11, 2006
Coco I don't agree with you, the boy could hurt you un-intentionally then what would you call that?
Re: How To Tell If A Boy Likes You by BigBaller(m): 2:18pm On Sep 12, 2006
How you know when a boy likes you is if when you come around he smile at you or look at you as tho you took his breath away. But, me personally I'll walk over to you and ask you questions you know throw a little game at you. And then I would ask if you have a boyfriend, maybe ease a little conversation in about your interest and things like that. But most of the time I just give em' a side smile. But, if a boy really likes you he'll ask for your phone number too. cool

How to tell if he likes you
(and if he's flirting with you in his special own guy-way).

A lot depends on the type of guy and his individual personality.

Shy Guys
These are tough to crack sometimes,
He'll look at you, until you turn around, then boom, he's looking the other way.
You may 'feel' like he's watching you - but he's hard to catch at it
He may do something physical - like grab you in a play way, poke you, play with your hair,
(Remember when you were really young and the guy you liked punched you or tackled you?)
He may be working really hard to pay attention to you, but doesn't quite know how,
He may ask a friend of yours about you - he'll say it's just for "friend of mine" that wants to know about you.
He talks to everybody else - but when you're around he turns silent, or chokes up.
You seem to accidentally bump into him a lot of different places.
He may not say a word to you, but he shows up in the same line, at the same movie, etc.
He'll give you a little smile from across the room, but if you get near, he won't look up.
Basically - the BIG clue is that his behavior changes when you're around (compared to when he's around his buds or other girls).
DEAD Giveaway - when you talk to him he turns red.
(Bingo - you can pack that puppy up and take him home, )
