Question: How Do I Know If Someone Likes Me?
One of the toughest things about dating is figuring out if someone you have a crush on likes you back.
Answer:
Usually, the best way to find out if someone likes you is to ask.
But because that can be pretty nerve wracking, the question of how to figure out if someone likes you comes up a lot. As a reader named Spence writes:
I am in college and i have a crush on this girl here at school. I know that she is Bi and has dated girls before, but dont know how to tell her how i feel. Ive had a crush on her for about 2 1/2 months now. Ever since i went to the movies with some friends and she sat next to me. We havent really talked much in person, but i talk to her online as much as i can (around 2-3 times a week). I see her around campus and cant stop thinking about her. Ive only ever dated guys before, but ive always been attracted to girls too. Not many of my friends know about it tho. What should i do? Whenever im around her i get VERY shy and dont speak. Ive noticed lately that when she walks by me she is quiet and just says hi. Can anyone help me???
A lot of people are in similar situations. Unfortunately, there are no signs that can indicate a person's feelings 100%, except for the verbal ones!
Of course, any time you talk about your feelings, you are taking a risk. The person you like might not respond the way you are hoping. But then again they might be feeling the same way as you are, and you would have never known without having a conversation.
