How to Tell Whether a Girl Is Interested In You

Aug 28, 2018

There are women all around you. Some are single and some are taken. It can be difficult to tell if a woman is into you. You do your best to look after your grooming and your appearance. You wear deodorant and your breath smells minty fresh. You even have a smile on your face and keep your eyes above shoulder level.

Most men who are searching for that special someone may be having trouble finding someone in real life. There are plenty of fun and interesting women around, but you have no idea if they like you. Also, you don’t want to be accused of harassment at work. So, where do you start?

Your first step must be figuring out if she’s really interested in you.

Who is hanging out with you in real life? Remember that some women consider guys their best friends, or like a brother or dad. This could take some work. But if there is a cute woman who’s always hanging out at your desk, or regularly says hi to you in the bar, she may just like you.

What do women do when they interact with you? Do they look directly at you, or are their eyes down or to the side? Women who are flirting won’t hesitate to look directly into your eyes. They’ll also hold the gaze for a much longer time than is polite.

Do you have someone who is touching you? People don’t normally touch each other. It can be seen as harassing. Yet, you may have someone who touches your shoulder, or your hand, on occasion. Is it possible that she’s single and interested? Also, if someone touches you and you don’t like it, then frown at them. Most people take the hint and don’t do again.

Is there a girl who brings you gifts? Check it out. Maybe she is bringing you freshly baked cookies, but only giving them to chosen people at work that she really likes. Does she ask if you want a cup of coffee even if it’s not her job? Does she insist on taking you out for birthday lunch?

It’s normal to ask questions about people you’re hanging out with. Asking about careers, marital status, children, and where you live is usual. But if they start asking about what types of concerts you enjoy attending, or what movies you like, or where you like to go to eat, that can be a clue they’d like to join you.

You may also wish to note the hormonal cues. This is when you’re both physically attracted to each other. It’s like your hormones are talking to each other and your bodies have already taken some of the guesswork away from you.

The final piece of advice is to ask a girl, in a friendly tone, whether she is married or has a boyfriend. If she says no, she may know exactly why you’re asking and be the first to ask for a date!
