25 Unmistakable Signs That He Likes You More Than A Friend

Is the person you like more than just a friend?

Guys rarely go wrong when trying to figure out whether a lady is more than just a friend. They can tell whether you like him or not. It is in their nature to make out whether you are more than a friend or not! However, as a girl, trying to figure out whether he likes you as a friend can be more than a Herculean task. Probably, you have even sat down with your girlfriends trying to analyze what he said to you and whether that was among the accurate signs that he likes you. The good news is that there are some accurate signs that you can be on the lookout for that can be an indication of whether the dude likes you more than a friend.

1. Check his body language to know if he likes you more

Have you seen him cozying up to you or just leaning on you? Does he seem to always prefer to sit next to you? This could be an accurate sign that he likes you more than a friend. If you find that he leans towards you when you are facing him, this is an indication that he wants to be close to you. If he is always finding excuses to touch you or seem comfortable when you touch him, this is a sign that he likes you more than a friend. However, this doesn’t mean that he will need to caress you if he likes you more than a friend. I am talking about him patting your shoulder during those funny moments or touching your knees when trying to draw your attention. This is a clear indication that he likes you more than a friend.

2. Constantly looking at you means he does like you

It is important to differentiate between when he is stealing those romantic glances and when he is just looking at you because you got spinach trapped in your teeth! To do that, you will need to consider whether he looks at you in the eye when you are talking. In case he isn’t interested, he will probably be looking into the distance or even at another beauty. But if he is maintaining eye contact with you, it is an indication that he is in love with you. The only reason why he keeps looking at you is because he likes what he see and feels good when looking at you. Therefore, if you happen to catch him as he stares at you and this happen more than once, it is an accurate sign that he would like you to be more than a friend.

3. Chasing you means he likes you more than a friend

When a guy likes a girl, he will rarely hide his interest. He will ask her out, send a message to her or even call her. This should also be the case if he likes you more than a friend. He will show interest in you and openly say that he is in love with you. Men are generally wired to chase ladies. Therefore, if he doesn’t show interest in you, chances are that he is simply not interested. It is possible to determine how close two friends are by noticing how much they get in contact with one another. In case you have to always call a friend or text them messages, it means that the friendship isn’t balanced. But if you find that the guy keeps calling you or sending messages to you, it is because he has the desire to be with you. This is an indication that he considers you to be more than a friend. However, it is worth remembering that friends tend to call or text one another quite often. Therefore, you will need to determine whether his rate of calling is what you can term as normal, friendly or more than normal. A good way that you can determine that is by figuring out the reason for calling or texting you. Is he doing a follow-up on a project you both were handling? If this is the reason for calling you, then it is pretty normal. However, if he just texts you to say ‘hi’ or is coming up with an excuse for calling or texting you more than your expectations, this is a clear sign that he likes you and considers you to be more than a friend.

4. Laughing with you means he is more than a friend

Probably you have noted that all of a sudden you have become the funniest person under the sun. If the man keeps laughing at your jokes, including some that suck, it is a sign that he likes you. He may just be hiding the fact that he likes you though. On the other hand, he will also try to make you laugh.

When a dude likes you more than a friend, he will try to impress you with his vibes. He will not only have a good time, but he will relax while in your company. When people enjoy themselves, they laugh. If a guy likes you more than a friend, he will put a lot of effort in making you laugh. At times, he will tease you as part of the flirting game. However, you need to realize that teasing is not equal to abusing you!

5. Remembering your details

When a guy is not into a woman, he will barely remember her name. However, when you see that he can remember even the finer details, this is a sign that not only does he listens to you, but he is also interested in you. Men will rarely remember your details as a sign of being polite, as many of them don’t even care. So, if he seems to remember you birthday, it is a sign that he cares about you. If he seems to remember the things you love, it is an accurate indication that he values you. Have you changed something about your look whether great or small and the man seems to notice? If he notices your new hairstyle or the fact that you changed your cologne, it is a clear indication that he considers you to be more than a friend.

6. Talking to you differently is a sign that he likes you

To determine whether he wants you, listen carefully to what he says to you and compare that to what he tells his other female friends. In case he seems to pay more attention to you, is flirtier or laughs more, it is an accurate sign that he likes you more than a friend. Therefore, watch whether he treats you more warmly than his friend as this is a sign that he treats you more than a friend. If he is introducing you to his friend, you need to be keen to hear how he does that. In case he has some feelings for you, he will not introduce you as a friend. This is because he can already feel in his head that you are more than a friend and he might find it odd referring you as a friend. If he behaves differently when around you, , it is because he considers you more than a friend.

7. Getting curious about your life is a sure sign

When a dude is in love with you, he will get super curious about your life. This is not only because he likes you more than a friend but because it offers him the excuse to ask some more questions. Therefore, he will be curious on the kind of person you are, where you come from and how your life is like. This is a sign that he is not just being friendly.
