How To Show A Guy You Like Him in Different Situations
How To Tell A Guy You Like Him? This is so unbelievably hard! You don’t want to come off too pushy, but you want to make sure he is picking up on the signals you’re sending. Finding the perfect medium is hard, but don’t worry Girlterest has your back! Make these ideas your own and feel free to fiddle with them to make them perfect for your situation.
1When he talks, listen.
2When he cracks a joke, laugh.
This one seems a little too good to be true because it is so easy and because we have seen a million girls in movies laugh too hard and make a fool of themselves. A lot of men pride themselves on being hilarious, for example why are “dad jokes” a thing and “mom jokes” don’t exist. It’s because men try to be funny and they want to make us girls laugh. So laugh when he cracks a joke. If a guy I like cracks a joke, I always do!
3Remember the small things
4Do you want to study for the test?
5Like the stuff he posts.
Again this is just something that everyone knows what it means. I wouldn’t suggest going back 4 months and liking a picture of him, but if he posts something like it… I mean if you really do like it. I’ve actually heard guys say “dude, she likes all of my stuff on Instagram/Facebook!” in a positive way. They hear the message loud and clear.
6Add him on Snapchat.
7Go talk to him.
You can’t sit in the corner staring at him and expect him to get that your awkward stares mean you think he is hotter than Liam Hemsworth. You are a person who can have conversations with people, you do it all the time. Just go say “Hey, I am digging your headphones, where did you get them?” “Are you in my biology class?” “Have you ever eaten across the street? I wonder if it’s any good?”
8Does he play sports? Act? Play base in a band?
9Say cheese
10If he invites you specifically, or your entire office/class/group of friends somewhere, go!
11Ask him if he wants to go to lunch.
12Sit next to him.
13Compliment him about how cute his dog is.
If he has one. Men and dogs share a special bond that is almost a little frustrating when you have a boyfriend with a dog. I think my boyfriend might love the dog more than me sometimes, but that’s okay because I love the dog more than him sometimes too haha! But seriously, men and their dogs are inseparable. If he has a picture of his dog on his phone, laptop, or on his desk it is a great conversation starter.
14Talk to his friends.
The way to a man’s heart, other than through his dog, is his friends. Remember in jr. high when we would tell our BFF that we thought Nick was cute and by lunch the whole class new and by the end of the day you were boyfriend and girlfriend. The timeline isn’t that quick anymore, unfortunately, but asking his friends if he is single will guarantee that he will get a text knowing you are interested as soon as you walk away.
15Just go ask for his dang number!
16If you have his number already, text him!
17If for some reason you know his parents or a parent get them to like you.
This might seem a little much or be completely creepy or seem like you are trying way too hard, but if you are dead set on getting a guy to like you go chat up his mom for awhile. She will then proceed to go home or call her son and ask him why he’s never asked you out because you are just such a sweet girl. (I knew an ex’s mom before I knew him and I unintentionally did this. But hey, I was in a relationship for almost a year and his mom still loves me!)
18Compliment him.
19Buddy Up
Weather in class or at one of those oh-so-boring team building exercises at work, when you need a buddy he should be the first person you ask! Team building exercises or a class project are both ways to get some one on one time with him. There is a subtle hint in asking him to be your buddy, but being subtly flirty during the exercise/project will finish the job.
20Put your phone down when he’s around.
21Eye Contact.
22Let him be the gentleman he is.
Don’t be too needy, girls, but ask him for help! Let him get you coffee, open doors for you, pull out your chair. From my experience men want to take care of us women, it’s just their nature. Of course they want a strong independent woman, but they just don’t want her to be able to open jars on her own. Let him help with the little things. It is a great conversation starter to ask for help as well, just don’t ask something too big.
23Get close.
Don’t grope him in the middle of a party, just get close enough that he knows you want to be close to him. We all have our natural comfort zones, the closest is out personal space. We don’t want someone standing literally three inches from our face talking and friends typically stand a foot or two apart when talking so find a happy medium. (REMEMBER! Everyone’s comfort zones are different so be aware! If you think he feels uncomfortable take a step back.)
thanks for the tips:)
