Signs that she really likes you

Whenever you’re nearby, she’ll play with her clothes or hair. She’ll let you into her “personal space,” especially during a conversation, and start touching your hand or arm. ILLUSTRATION | IGAH

What you need to know:

  • A girl who fancies you  looks for excuses to talk to you and if you text, she replies quickly.
  • Whenever you’re nearby, she’ll play with her clothes or hair. She’ll let you into her “personal space,” especially during a conversation, and start touching your hand or arm.
  • She’ll mimic gestures or words you use. She’ll smile for no good reason and even laughs at your worst jokes.

Guys always feel anxious making the first move. But you needn’t.

You just need to see the signs that a girl’s keen on you, then you won’t get turned down. But how can you tell? It’s all about the way she behaves! Her words could mean anything, especially if she’s shy, but her behaviour always tells the truth.

So for example, a girl who fancies you remembers the things you say. And looks for excuses to talk to you. If you text, she replies quickly. She’s often the one who starts the conversations, perhaps for no apparent reason. She may even have made the very first move to talk to you. She’s probably also stalking you on Facebook.

She’ll seem a little nervous when she’s around you and you might notice little signs of jealousy when you’re talking with your friends.

You’ll keep “accidentally” bumping onto her, because she’s started hanging around all your regular places. She parades back and forth to get your attention, and finds ways to separate you from your friends. She’s also OK leaving her friends to be alone with you. It’s sort of like you’ve already started dating, unofficially!

MEANINGFUL ENGAGEMENT

When you’re together, she doesn’t mess with her phone. Her eyes are always on you, and she’s constantly catching yours. If you happen to mention you need something, she’ll get it for you. She’ll ask for your help with things, cancel her plans to fit in with yours, be nicer to your friends, and try to sit near you.

Whenever you’re nearby, she’ll play with her clothes or hair. She’ll let you into her “personal space,” especially during a conversation, and start touching your hand or arm. She’ll mimic gestures or words you use. She’ll smile for no good reason and even laughs at your worst jokes.

She’ll draw attention to her lips with things like food, the straw in her drink, a spoon or her fingers. Her conversations with you will start including words with sexy double meanings. And you’ll notice her saying things like ‘aww’ or ‘ooh’ after you say something even vaguely romantic.

If you do start to date, then pretty soon she’ll also start to talk about your relationship. Because if she’s still keen she’ll want to know whether your dating really means something. And that you’re not just hanging out together. She’ll make it clear that she wants you two to be an item, and doesn’t want to see you with anyone else.

Gradually you’ll find you’re spending lots of time together, just doing the ordinary everyday things married couples do. It’ll be clear that she cares a lot about you. Worrying if you’re ill, and wanting you to be comfortable and well fed.

Soon she’ll start talking about a future together. Discussing your plans and hers. Finances. Jobs. Children. Which means she’s expecting a proposal! So make your mind up. Because girls quickly become impatient if you don’t get the message!
