Does he Like me?


Question Posted Saturday April 26 2014, 10:57 pm

So there's this guy, let's say his name is Alex, and I really like him I just don't know if he likes me. We go to Karate together and he's always looking at me through the mirror and smiling. We text almost all the time and our conversations never die. But I just wanna know if he likes me. He's always calling me his little monkey and sending me monkey emojis, but he doesn't act like he likes me. What should I do? We only started texting a week ago but I've liked him forever. I don't wanna scare him away by telling him I like him.

Aw that's so cute! I feel that everyone is met to find someone! I believe you have the right to know how he feels, maybe ask him to hang out, go to the movies or dinner and see how it goes! Everything may end up falling in place!

It sounds to me like he likes you and you two are lowly building tour friendship. I would continue the way you are getting to know each other maybe ask if he'd like to hang out , outside of karate. Good luck.

There are tricks to what you can say to get some points subtlely across to him without revealing how much you like him. Admiring certain qualities in a guy is not admitting that you like him. Being paid compliments doesnt mean that everyone who compliments you in interested in you that way but it shows that they noticed something about you that they liked, like lets say your performance in a talent show at school. Guys can be as scared to make the first step because of fear of rejection. So if he knew you noticed or admired some things about him, that speaks strongly that since you already think highly about some things about him, you may be more likely to say yes to going out with him.
Of course put it in your way of talking but something like, When you told the story of the customer who dropped some bills on the floor at the cashier and you told them and picked them up instead of saying nothing and keeping for yourself cus you could really use it, it shows you are an honest person and I admire that in people. So during conversation, even if its just stuff he says that makes you, theres reason to compliment, it means he has a great sense of humor and you like being around people who can make you laugh.

You could also make up a story early in week about how you and a girlfriend are going to such and such movie next weekend. When it gets close, you lament to him that your girlfriends parents had a family event they said she had to go to out of town and now you'd have to go all alone or not go at all. And you never have any fun when you go alone. You just wish you had someone to go to the movie with. This is his opportunity to volunteer to go with you. If a guy is really interested in a girl, he'll be looking for any excuse to be near her or spend time in her presence and you can be sure he'll notice this opportunity. If he likes you in an attraction/romantically way and wants to date, he'll go for it and ask to go with you or ask you to wait for the following day when his schedule is clear to take you to the movie.
If he doesnt volunteer, he doesnt like you that way. Could it be that its not his taste in a movie? Maybe, but a guy who wants to be near you wont care what movie is playing, all he wants is a comfortable way to come to your rescue and end up on a kind of date with you. good luck.

yup i agree with the other poster. it sounds like he likes you but he may not be ready to take it to that next level yet. some guys will get right up to that point making you think their ready when they may not be. just keep playing it cool and wait until he suggests something or asks you something that MIGHT hint at him secretly asking you if you like him or "what kinda guys you like" you could try that. theres tonsss of subtle little hints you can give a guy to let him know you like them. like if he has light colored eyes, you could mention that you like guys with light colored eyes. (he may not realize it right away) but once he does he will probly get really excited. ; )

but i would just keep playing it cool like your really good friends and see how far HE takes it. see if he invites you out places to do things with him or anything.

Hey there!
By the sounds of it you really like this guy and that's great! Texting all the time and from what you've said, quite playful flirty texting is a sign he may like you but boys are complicated creatures who struggle to just be straight about issues sometimes!
My advice would be to carry on texting him for a bit and see how it progresses. If the texting carries on like it is now and you still feel the same about him then maybe ask to meet up with him outside of karate. If it's just the two of you then you may be able to tell a little better if he really likes you or not!

Or if you would rather you could drop subtle hints to him that you may like him a bit and see how he reacts. If he freaks out a bit then back off and just carry on texting and be friendly like you are now.

Just remember- if a boy really likes you then they will let you know! It can just be a little tricky to notice them hinting it sometimes! - good luck! X
