He finds small ways to touch you. He's always finding little moments to share physical contact with you, whether by putting his hand on the small of your back when he passes by you, bumping your shoulder with his while he laughs, or playing with your hair.
They find ways to spend time with you
You try to find excuses to spend time with them as well. And when you meet up, you will sense they have eyes and ears for you and you alone. They will take the lead to make plans with you. They will listen to all your stories no matter how long or boring or detailed they are.
He plans real dates (like dinner, drinks, theater, museums, hikes, day trips and more) because he wants to have fun with you! When a guy likes you, he makes an effort! He texts, calls, plans dates, picks you up and picks up the check. He doesn't mind working a little harder because he feels you're worth the effort.
Another clear sign he likes you is if he is actively trying to hang out with you, or help you, or find out more about you. There are also indicators like eye contact or compliments, and showing that he's interested in your physical appearance, or who you are as a person.
If you notice he is making more eye contact with you or you catch a guy staring at you, he is probably attracted to you. He may be enthralled by your good looks and may be fantasizing about kissing you. Perhaps he stares at you and smiles; that could mean he likes you, too.
He'll Make Extra Eye Contact
Men who are attracted may try to make eye contact with you. Eye-contact seeking is a gesture we make when we want to start a conversation in social or dating situations—we scan around until we make eye contact as a way to say, “I am here, please talk to me”.
Men usually exhibit goofy, funny, and flirty behavior with their potential partners. He will try to make you laugh, ruffle your hair, tease you with physical touch, engage in casual flirting, or crack jokes to make you laugh. If you notice this pattern and his interest in being with you, he might like you.
Guys flirt with girls they like. He might ask you for your number, then call you the next day. He may act playful, wink, and flash a smile at you. If most of your conversations feel flirty, then odds are that he likes you as more than just a friend.
Things You Should Know
Look for signs in his body language like eye contact and leaning in towards you while talking. He'll also initiate more physical touch between you. Study his behavior, including the time between text responses and how jealous he seems when other guys are mentioned.
He might give you intense eye contact and look at your chest or check you out when you're across the room. If you catch him looking at you, it probably means he likes you. He will probably start the conversation more often than not if he isn't trying to play it too cool. If you start the conversation, that's okay too.
Here are the typical signs someone is attracted to you:
They tilt their head as you speak (a sign of engagement). They smile at you. They make eye contact with you. They reach out and touch your arm, hand, back, or leg.
If the attraction is mutual between you and another person, you'll likely want to talk to each other rather frequently. You may also compliment each other frequently. You might also find yourselves trying to make each other laugh and taking any chance possible to strike up a conversation with the other person.
“Deep eye contact, or holding your gaze for at least four seconds, may indicate feelings of love.” Bonus points if they smile in your presence, too.
If he compliments your eyes, the color of your hair, your laugh, or an admirable aspect of your personality, then he's definitely flirting with you. He may even tease you a bit while flirting with you, like if he says something like, "That's the brightest sweater I have ever seen," but he's still flirting with you.
Some flirting signals are obvious, like touching, and other flirting signs, like eye contact or compliments, are more subtle. Actions that you think might just be friendly gestures can actually indicate romantic interest.
Approachability is attractive
Of course, men blessed with symmetrical features, chiseled jaws and great hair will always score higher in the attractiveness stakes, but several studies have shown that women tend to be more attracted to approachable, average looks when looking for a long-term partner.
Generally, men prefer women with full breasts, full lips, a symmetrical face, a big smile, a wider waist-hip ratio, healthy hair, a high-pitched voice, clear skin, and big eyes; however, this may vary depending on individual preferences.
That's why guys might be shy or quiet when interacting with someone they admire. Even if they feel confident and sure of themselves in other situations, it can be difficult to express those feelings when they have a crush on someone. So, it's natural for guys to act nervous around someone special.
