You ask her out. If she says yes, she may like you...or she may not quite yet but looks forward to a free meal. If she says no, she may like you but have other plans or she may just be in a bad mood...she can't not like you because she doesn't really know you yet. Or she may just like you as a friend.

I really don't think there is a way to really know until she's stayed married to you for oh, say, 30 years or so.

If she checks you out, if she flirts with you, little light friendly touches, etc.

hmm:

if she is *interested, it does not mean she likes you, it just means your probability is higher. signs of interest include:

A. treats you differently than she treats others
B. looks at you often even if you are not speaking
C. seems at a loss for words or has momentarily lapses in confidence.
D. makes arbitrary references to events to which the two of you could attend
E. nicely making fun of you in particular <this is my favourite>
F. seems giddy around you
G. touches you for any reason; order of serious touching, from least to most: on the arm for emphasis, on the shoulder to brush something, on the leg for emphasis, both hands at once touching you anywhere, 'accidental' cleavage brush and/or glimpse
H. displaced stroking, licking, and/or manhandling of objects - e.g. suckers, pens, desks

if she is a geek: she will blush often, stammer, and run about.

also..she will be nervous around you, such as playing with her hair around you and checking you out often.

if you get signals from her when you talk to her

if she shows interests in you by asking questions...(being friendly OR like you) (this one's hard to tell!)

Jenny brought up some really good body language signs -

Here are some others -


Good Signs
1. Smiling with her eyes (She's pleased with you)
2. Preening (the hair toss) (Kind of like what animals do)
3. Facing you with her legs crossed, toes pointed at you (She's inviting you into her world)
4. Leaning towards you (Wants to get close)
5. Palms open, wrists exposed (Not hiding anything, making herself vulnerable to you)

Bad Signs
1. Leaning away from you (She's distancing herself from you)
2. Fingertap (She's annoyed/bored)
3. If her arms are crossed (She's protecting herself from you)
4. Her legs crossed along with a kicking motion (Upset, annoyed)

Hope this helps in your quest for true love!!!

There is this guy that I like and I got D E and G from him. I wonder if guys show their interest in similar ways too girls. Probably but with a suttle difference. I was flirting with him as well too by the way.

I guess guys can't toss their hair like us girls do. Lol.

Ziggue - Watch a man in the presence of a sexy woman. He will often straighten out his clothes and fix his hair.

hmm that's tough, im a guy. but usually i can detect if a girl likes me by her " attitude change towards me" NOW compared to the last time i've seen her. ( attitude change as in she'll be aloof(aloof in a (shy) specific way, but not in a cold way) (but i wouldnt suggest being aloof, as most guys will take this as a sign of disinterest) and if she touches me on the arm or shoulder frequently.

but not all guys have good radar.....so sorry that's all i can help with

Well, the funny thing is love is funny.

I have a crush on someone now that I used to not
even be the slightest bit interested in, though I
always liked him as a friend.

If she says she isn't interested, believe her! Move
on. If she changes her mind later, and you are
still single, then you can make up your mind how to
react at the time.

For now, the signals that she is definitely interested
may include looking at you alot, fidgeting with things
when she knows you are standing there, always
being nearby, etc.

I have a little different sort of problem. The person
I am crushing on is both an old co-worker and a
pastor. The only place I ever see him is at church
and we never are alone. So, I'm assuming that
if he flirts, it's going to be very subtle. I believe
I've picked up on some flirting, but its subtle like
always smiling at me and asking about school. I
mean, it wouldn't be very professional for him to
put his hand on my butt. Unfortunately, I may
need that sort of Obvious signal before I know
for sure he is interested. Instead of agonizing over
it for the whole week, I think I just need to ask him out.
Plus, sometimes if you're waiting for the other
person to make the move...they might be waiting for
you to be more obvious.

If he says yes, then I'm in. If he says no and he
doesn't think it would be a good idea. I'm done and I
can focus on my schoolwork that needs to be done.
If he says, no and an excuse, then that means it's
possible but he might prefer a different time. So, I'll
suggest another day or ask him when he has down
time. If he trys to avoid answering me directly, I'll
know I am losing. If he offers his schedule, I'll know what
times to suggest. Of course, if he keeps coming up
with excuses, he is just too cowardly to fess up that
he isn't interested. I think he is though.
