Q: can someone please explain "the look" to me, my friend described it as 'a look you get from a guy that likes you, his face changes, he looks more happy and his eyes, he just gets this crazy look in his eyes that screams I LIKE YOUUU!' i dont see it though, i see just a look, like hey whats up haha. she is a relationship whiz and it's crazy how right she is i just dont know what to look for when he looks at me. so can someone explain "the look". answer: if i get "the look" does that mean he likes me? what do i look at when he's looking at me? into his eyes?

I'm assuming your friend is hot. I say this because she can get guys to give her "the look" often enough to know when it happens.
The truth is, the "look" only applies to maybe 40% of dudes. The sad thing is that every guy reacts to a girl different (just like you ladies) There are some guys who are quiet (they are much more apt to give you said "look" because they want to hear you talk and are interested in what you have to say) There are guys who are loud and boisterous who will give you the "hey whats up" more often than not. And sometimes it may seem like he's not interested when he is, or it may seem like he is interested but maybe he isn't.
Doesn't make sense huh? It's not supposed to.

Here's what you do. Like a science experiment, you need a control sample. So watch how he treats other girls. If he pays lots of attention and talks to lots of girls, then that's just his nature, but if he only behaves that way around you, you may want to pay a little more attention to that hair and outfit...
