If she doesn’t even flinch when you get a bit too close to her personal space, that’s a sign she wants you close to her. Compare this to how often you text her. It’s the same principle as matching the length of her texts. She’s eager if she’s texting more often than you, and you’re eager if you’re the one texting more often. But if she never calls or texts first, that’s a sign of lack of interest.

It’s a normal part of life, and it has nothing to do with your value as a person or your self-esteem! But dating—or flirting, or talking, or whatever the kids call it these days — can be a lot easier once you learn how to pick up on people’s social cues. By social cues, I mean the subtle signs, like body language and conversational patterns, that can help let you know how someone else is feeling. This one is kind of sad because, ideally, you should always have a friend’s full attention when you talk to them! However, in this day and age of constant distraction, you’ll find that most people aren’t listening to everything you say.

You’ll likely make some faux pas in the process. As long as you act like a gentleman (not the weird, m’lady kind) when making those initial dating moves, you shouldn’t experience too much social awkwardness when you face rejection.

If you notice that your female friend would rather hang out with you rather than with a large group, then pay attention! She’s not doing this because her other friends bore her.

• Hopefully, your friend isn’t creepily staring at you all the time, but it is normal for someone who likes you to look at you more often.
• Before I jump into the next section here, I want to point out another thing with you.
• In return, she’ll scoot on over and try to squeeze her way into the conversation.
• Of course, if she is initiating touch with you, that’s a fantastic sign.

If a girl seems to be purposely avoiding any sort of contact with you – say, actively avoiding any chance to talk to you, even if you’re in a group setting – chances are she thinks you like her but she is not interested. It could also be that she is reacting negatively to advances that are too blunt. Take her silence and avoidance as a cue to back off and give her space. You can try flirting with her again after a couple of weeks.

14. The two of you text at least every other day

After all, no one is that interested in what kind of sandwich you had for lunch unless there’s a romantic appeal there. And if she sends you an emoji like
