6 Ways to Tell if Your Crush Likes You
Subtle ways to see if the person you like feels the same about you.
Growing up gay in high school, I would always be the go-to person for my girlfriends to ask for advice on boys. Every time, there was the inevitable question: do you think he likes me?
I always found it super easy to tell whether someone’s crush (guy or girl) liked them back and, to tell you the truth, I almost always turned out to be right. Here are a couple of the methods I’d use to try and work it out:
1. What type of conversation are they having with you?
I always noticed that someone’s crush would make time to talk to the person they liked and wouldn’t care what they were talking about. If they like you, they will just want to spend time with you. Therefore, I would always concentrate on the type of conversation that was happening and the more boring or dull it sounded, usually the more likely it was to be one crush talking to another. Often, people misinterpret this as being awkward but think about it, if it was awkward, the person would just leave, right? The very fact that they’re continuing with the ‘awkward’ conversation shows that they want more out of it.
