5 Signs to Stop Guessing If He’s Interested in You or Not

Is he crushing or just being nice?

We all have crushes, regardless of what stage of life we ​​are in. Usually, we can crush on someone simply because “She’s beautiful” or “He’s so nice to you.”

When I look back to my teenage years, I was always obsessed with cute guys who more often than not didn’t reciprocate my feelings.

I can only think of two different scenarios in my life when I didn’t like anyone as much — between fifth and sixth grades, I have memories of intense sensitivity, and right before I met my second boyfriend.

Online dating makes it possible to always have someone around — and when I have chemistry with someone, I’m usually obsessed with them. These crushes get so overwhelming that I’ve even considered attending explicit sex clubs in disguise.

I remember a certain incident before cheating on my second boyfriend. I was out of town for six weeks because it got pretty tensed up in our relationship.

I had created an online dating profile looking for ‘fun casual relationships with like-minded people’. I don’t really know exactly what I was looking for.

I eventually met a man with a charming personality and developed an intense romantic desire that I never expected.

I was consumed with obsessive thoughts about him for weeks, even though he never asked me to go out on a date.

Shortly afterward, he moved to a town a few hours away from me, and I never saw him again.

Crushes, like other fantasy obsession games, usually have a lot to teach us, if we allow them to.

Being in love is not only obsessive and a, although it can be both. It’s not just about connecting with someone, which can seem extremely rare, exciting and precious.

Much of it is physical, but it goes beyond sexual urges, wants, and needs.

Sometimes you almost feel like your body wants your rational mind to listen to its irrational and erratic rhythms for a change.

I think those of us who punish ourselves too much — who think too much instead of feeling, who struggle to give ourselves what we need — tend to let crushes take over our whole lives because our feelings and our body are trying to break through our layers and layers of intellectualization.

When you have a crush your mind is completely rewired. It is like your body wants your mind to be obsessed with the crush.

You wake up in the morning and you could walk to work, you can get on with the everyday tasks ahead, but instead, you just want to lie there and feel where you are.

You want to bask in consciousness, you want to cultivate the consciousness of every cell in your body.

Your body asks, “Who do you want?” And your mind is searching for a picture. At that moment it brings out an image of your crush.

And your body says: YES, KEEP YOUR EYES ON HIM!

A crush can be a way of admitting your feelings to yourself instead of holding them back. And if you’ve always wanted to be in love, to surrender to those feelings, then that says something about your relationship with yourself.

Perhaps you are not good enough for yourself on a daily basis and your body and mind rebel against you.

You may still feel guilty no matter what you do, even as you make progress in writing, even if you spend a lot of time alone.

Maybe there is a voice telling you that you cannot do enough, that you are always wrong.

In this case, your mind and body will refuse to obey your orders to erase your crush from your mind.

Having a crush may seem like a waste of time, but it can actually be a way to achieve something else that you need.

However, some of us still have trouble identifying crushes or denying them altogether. Even if it is so obvious to everyone around us!

Here are some clues to know when your crush feels the same attraction as you do. When you see them, I hope it gives you the courage to flirt until he gets the hang of it and asks you out.

1. Familiarity

It’s always a great feeling when the two people in a relationship take the time to get to know each other.

It’s even more romantic when your crush remembers something you said to them.

Make no mistake, if a guy likes you, he won’t just ‘listen’ to your words.

Remembering all those little details you mentioned, like how you like your coffee or where you went to high school, is one of the powerful signs of mutual attraction.

Likewise, as women, when we love someone, we also take notes and remember all those little details — even from their previous love life.

However, for women, it is a bit more unconscious. Men, on the other hand, are less engaged and often don’t remember as much as women, so remembering all the little details is a clear sign that they like you or are trying to impress you.

In fact, if someone is crushing on you, they ask a lot of questions that will help them learn more about you.

And the fact that they remember your answers or bring them up in later conversations is an important sign of mutual attraction.

2. Reciprocity

Unfortunately, if they don’t make you feel the same about them or aren’t that excited about doing things together, that could mean they’re just not into you.

It is therefore essential to seek reciprocity to determine if someone is attracted to you. Pay attention to this or it could bite you on your butt.

In general, some people often maintain the same energy as the person they like. They call you just as often, want to eat with you, and are usually just as excited to do things together.

However, if you are the one always initiating ideas, then there is a problem. See, if you both like each other, you should meet each other halfway.

If you find yourself doing all the chasing, chances are you are alone in your feelings too.

More so, it is not a mutual attraction if there is no action to back it up.

Pay close attention to the conversations you have with each other; do you feel like you are the only one talking all the time?

Do they have the same enthusiasm or do they feel pressured?

If the answers to the above questions are yes, then I am afraid this is not mutual attraction.

Anyone who likes you would really enjoy your company, and it would be pretty obvious to you that they do.

3. Flirting

Even I have to admit that when I like someone, I usually step up my “A-game”, my hair, my clothes, my hygiene, and even the way I speak — all with the goal of impressing the guy.

However, trying to impress doesn’t mean you’re not good enough already — it’s just one of those signs of mutual attraction that shows you want that other person to like you more.

Don’t get me wrong, if someone doesn’t like you for who you are, don’t even go that way.

If you notice that someone special is starting to stick around you a little more than usual, this is an important sign that there is an attraction in the air.

Yes, it may sound a bit self-centered or pointless, but at this point, it really has nothing to do with low self-esteem.

They just want to look more attractive to get you to notice their feelings for you. So a little more lipstick here — or a hint of fragrance there won’t hurt anyone.

4. Physical touch

If there’s one thing you can rely on when it comes to signs of mutual attraction, it’s full body language.

Moreover, going even further is physical touch: so if they suddenly can’t keep their hands off you, something is in the air.

There is no doubt that touch is the ultimate body language sign that someone is deeply attracted to you.

And I don’t mean some kind of sexually obsessed touch, although that’s also a clue. Rather, a subtle, unconscious gentle touch is sufficient.

This kind of touch doesn’t come from a sexual place, but it feels very natural.

For example, during a conversation or while watching a movie, if they constantly rub your arms or knees in the most subtle way.

5. Fondling

One of the main signs of a strong physical attraction that will occur when there is an unspoken mutual attraction between two people is a lot of teasing.

It’s not that real kid’s play that shows up in high school playgrounds and movies, but something deeper. After all, when done right, teasing is a special form of flirting and can even be categorized as art.

So why is this such an intimate act? The truth is, you can’t just walk around and tease people; there must already be a connection.

Plus, that connection has to be deep and comfortable for that kind of teasing to make you laugh.

Generally, when you love someone, let them tease and poke every now and then so that you feel comfortable with each other.

It’s also an important sign that there is something “not so platonic” about your relationship.

If you notice that the two of you are often far away in a teasing match, or if you just enjoy making fun of each other every now and then, there’s a lot of mutual attraction looming.

Don’t wait for a fortune teller to drop this revelation or for someone to let you know. Take action when you’ve noticed all the teasing.
