It's hard to say because each guy is different. Some guys are just well mannered and just nice guys. Some will go out of their way to show you they like you with maybe getting you a gift or asking you to hang out a lot. Another type of guy (ex: my boyfriend) will make fun of you in a joking way. Ever guy is different there is no exact way to figure out whether a guy likes you unless he comes out and says "hey I like you". ]
Here's the thing... some guys have a personality of being flirty so depending on the guy, it's hard to decipher. I know some of my guy friends are just flirty in nature so you have to really get to know this boy's personality before you can judge completely.
However, signs of flirtation include:
nicknames that are more endearing than those most: such as babe, love, sexy, etc.
being incessant about hanging out in the sooner rather than later future
winky faces, smileys, hearts, kiss faces, etc, in texts
constant eye contact or slight awkwardness
being very touchy feel-y
hugs for a long period of time, rather than the standard 5-7 second hug
choosing you over his "bros"/guy friends
obviously, asking you out on dates, etc, LOL
trying to make himself look better around you (make a good impression)
constant teasing or joking around with you... kind of like he's picking on you.
giving you compliments, liking your pictures on Facebook, calling you beautiful, etc
doing things he doesn't like but you do
And so many others!
A good tip I learned is when signs of flirting are evident call him out on it, in a flirty manner. It's playful, silly, but it also puts him in his place and lets you validate his true intentions with his response. If he says something witty, he's definitely flirty. If he's offended, and NOT in a joking way, then he's definitely not flirty. But then again, that also depends on the personality! ]
check to see if he pays special attention to you. if he texts you, try drying the conversation a little and see if he makes an effort to pick it back up ]
