How To Know If A Boy Likes You

How to Talk to Your Crush

Pay attention to your body language. Your body language communicates a lot, whether or not you want it to. Sometimes, your body will says things you can't help. But a lot of the time, if you're aware of what your body is saying, you can correct it if you ever notice it betraying you. Here's what to pay attention to:

Eye-contact. Making and keeping eye-contact says that you're interested in what the other person is saying.Face in their direction. Face your body in their direction. It means you're interested in what they're saying and aren't shy.Smile. Smiling says the other person makes you happy. with body language. Especially if you're a girl. Gently bat your eyelashes, twirl your hair, or touch their shoulder.Laughing at their jokes. Even if the jokes aren't that funny, smile and do your best to humor your crush.

Don't use pick-up lines! Whatever you do, don't use pick-up lines. They're horribly cheesy and they don't really work. If you're a guy and you can't think of what to use other than a pick-up line  

Don't take yourself so seriously. Seriously. If you're like a normal person, being close to your crush is going to drive you insane. And when you feel that way, you're likely to do, well, stupid stuff. Shrug it off. If you trip over your words, say something like "Wow. I can't speak. I guess being close to a beautiful girl will do that." If you trip over your shoes and he comes to pick you up, asking "Are you okay?!" say something like "Sure, I really thought I nailed the landing."  

Ask for a date. If you feel like the conversation is going well, don't hesitate to ask when your crush is free again. This can be anything from a couple of minutes at lunch tomorrow to a bona fide date with movie and dinner — your request will depend on how confident you feel and how your crush acts while you're talking.

Once you've thought it through and you can tell they are interested in you, don't worry about asking when you can see each other after this.

Be aware of the situation. You are not necessarily going to get a warm reception when you first try to initiate conversation. If your crush seems disengaged or bored, ask if anything is wrong; maybe it's been a bad day, maybe they've got something on their mind.

If there doesn't appear to be anything distracting your crush and his or her annoyance with you still seems to be heightening, excuse yourself politely, make a quick escape, and consider trying another day.

Handle rejection calmly. It's possible that your crush just doesn't feel the same way about you. If you determine that this is the case, the two of you can still talk, but you have to accept that a romantic relationship between you is unlikely.

There's nothing worse than feeling unrequited love for someone who's completely unaware of it, so if your crush friend-zones you, just accept it and move on.Try to stay cool and confident, but don't act cocky.All you have to do is be polite and don't really freak out. It might end up better than you expected.If you're concerned about what you're going to say, make a list of questions/topics to bring up if the conversation starts to falter. Topics that interest both of you will make talking much easier.For anyone who's seriously worried about talking to a crush, ask one of your friends to scope out the situation before you go up to your crush. If they are in the mood to talk, your friend should be able to pick that up and let you know. If not, try again another time.Just be your self around your crush.Don't follow your crush everywhere it can get a little creepy!Your appearance isn't nearly as important in this context as your ability to carry on a conversation, but looking nice can't hurt, so spend a little extra time on your choice of outfit, hair,how you smell, and makeup (if you wear any). After all, first impressions are forever!Giggling, blushing, fidgeting, and hair- or face-touching are all signs that manifest themselves if you're talking to someone you like. If your crush does any of these things, take note—it likely means that he or she is nervous around you, too.If you flub a word or blurt something out without thinking, play it off with a laugh or a shrug. Your crush might not even notice if you don't make a big deal out of it!If you do not want to talk directly to your crush, talk to one of their friends and maybe your crush will chime in.Don't freak out if they're giving you mixed signals. They simply may not know how they feel, but if you do, keep showing your feelings and they might discover their feelings to.If it's the last time you'll see your crush, tell him/her how you feel about him/her. If you aren't comfortable, then write your crush a note, give a hug, and move on. You'll always find someone around the corner.Show interest, but don't lead him/ her on!Try to find seats next to him/her if you're in the same class. It works well!Don't start talking to loud or go of topic try to keep it smooth.Find out what they are interested in and try talking to them about that. It will really make the conversation flow a lot easier!Don't fantasize having a relationship with him or her. Sometimes you can get too deep with this imaginary relationship and will end up getting crushed easier. Instead of fantasizing a relationship, think about a conversation with him or her until you think you're ready to start up a conversation.Tease them, but in a nice way. If he or she teases back you know it's working. Usually this is the most fun conversation you can have.Don't forget to breathe; breathing while talking to your crush is very important. It helps you focus a bit more and calms you down, so breathe.And just be you because if he doesn't like you for you then he's not worth it beautiful :).Make sure to always be yourself, because everybody else is already taken!Don't get really hyper around them and do silly things. They might get the wrong idea and just think you're not up to having a relationship just yet.Make sure to get to know him REALLY well before asking him out. If you simply just like him or her without letting your crush get to know you well, don't ask them out right away. Hang out in class or at lunch.If you are way too nervous around your crush, then just pretend that he's one of your guy friends. It will make you more comfortable to talk to them.Take a deep breath and go talk to him/her.Be yourself, he might notice you lying, so just be yourself don't change ENTIRELY for a boy.If you are nervous take a deep breath before you talk.Don't start off trying to talk to them alone! Get in a group environment so they can get to know a bit about you.Avoid saying 'like' in your conversation. Your crush might lose interest in you for saying the same word, and it'll make them a little annoyed.Ask them to hang out. This will get you closer to them, and get to know them better. You guys will also be alone, which will make you two have a chance to talk more.BE YOURSELF. One thing I could not ever even think to do was talk to my crush; I didn't have to anyway. He started talking to me. But when he did, I acted natural. Your crush doesn't want you to have to act like someone else. There's only one you; and that's you.Try to get to know their friends. They'll feel more comfortable around you if you know their friends.No matter what, always act as natural as possible. Most people can tell when someone's being fake or inhibited. Besides, don't you want your crush to like you for who you are?OK, so s/he'll like you to have an interest in him/her, but don't go over the top with the questions. And don't say "where do you live" because your crush will be really creeped out.Know that after a certain number of failed attempts, it's time to throw in the towel. Even if you think you can make your crush like you if he or she talks to you enough, that kind of strained relationship will inevitably end in heartbreak.Don't freak out. As long as you've practiced and prepared enough, this won't be a problem—in your head you should already know what to do under any circumstances.
