A guy that looks at you frequently, smiling, and going out of his way to be within eyeshot of you, likes you.
He follows this behavior with conversation that includes moments of flirting.
This being said, there are guys who like you but demonstrate contradicting behavior.
He looks at you from time to time, but doesn’t smile.
A guy that exhibits this contradicting behavior is too nervous to make a move on you.
He is shy, but he does want you to look back at him and smile.
He is looking for a sign of interest from you that you aren’t giving him.
As a result, he keeps looking without smiling or any facial expression on his face, not knowing what to make of how you are acting, or whether you like him at all.
If this is a guy that you have talked to a few times and has given you compliments, it’s reasonable to believe that he likes you.
He hasn’t made a move to ask you out yet, unsure about how you feel about him.
The thought of making a move is terrifying.
As far as he is concerned, it exposes him, which makes him vulnerable.
Being fearful of how you would react to being asked out is what prevents him from doing so.
You didn’t return his compliments, and your body language was closed off.
All of this left him feeling that you aren’t attracted to him.
In a scenario like this, give him compliments too.
Use your body language to show him that you are into him.
Touch him briefly on his arm as you talk to him.
This is body language that creates a physical connection, breaking the personal space barrier that people have.
He gets to see that you are returning his affection, which in turn, encourages him to ask you out.
Now, if this is a guy that flirts with you a lot, but does the same with a variety of girls, he doesn’t like you in particular.
There are guys who love to flirt without having to commit to anything.
This is who you are dealing with.
A guy who calls you beautiful one day, and calls two other girls beautiful the next.
Additionally, a guy is showing that he likes you when he is communicating with you regularly.
When he rarely initiates phone calls or texts, he doesn’t like you.
By using his behavior over time as your barometer, it’s much easier for you to tell whether he likes you or not.
