How Do I Tell If He Likes Me?
How does one tell when another person really likes them? It’s simple, that other person will make time for you. They will seek you out. They will find ways to get in touch with you. This holds true whether the other person is male or female, taken or available.
I am asked countless times, almost every single day, about this very thing. It is either, “How do I know he likes me?” Or, “Why isn’t he calling/texting?” The most direct answer … his/her actions will tell you how they truly feel, if anything. This holds true whether you just met or you have had an on-again, off-again relationship for over 30 years.
Observe his body language. If he leans in toward you when conversing, he’s interested. He could also show interest by casually licking his lips or subtly caressing your arm or brushing up against you. Are his arms crossed over his chest? Then he is closed off and not interested. If he keeps looking around as though looking for someone or something else, then he is probably not interested.

During casual conversation, does he ask a lot of personal or direct questions? This shows interest. Constantly checking his phone? Not interested. If he is constantly talking about himself, he may be trying to impress you.
There are any number of ways people express their interest in others but, when in doubt, the best approach is the direct approach. Just ask. If you are not comfortable asking, then make your own interest known and see what happens. You must understand, though, that it takes time to develop actual feelings. Liking someone does not necessarily mean there are actual feelings involved.
I find that people are often a bit too quick to jump to “feelings” when looking to embark upon a new relationship. Some times it is difficult to distinguish between casual interest and actual feelings.
I encourage people to develop and nurture the friendship first. It is always better to fall in love with your best friend, in my opinion. Forming a good friendship bond will lay a good, solid foundation upon which a strong relationship can be built.
Unfortunately, in the current times, too many people are looking more of a quick, casual hook-up as opposed to an actual romantic relationship. Again, the other person’s actions toward you will let you know just what they are interested in.
Tamara’s Verdict
When looking for a quality, long-term relationship, I strongly discourage clients from online dating or pursuing relationships online in any way. While there are genuine persons on some of the dating sites, there are far more people only looking for casual sex or to scam others in some way. Online, people can be anyone they desire and you are quite limited as to how you can investigate their claims. In all potential relationships, people generally make their interest known if you just know what to look for. How the other person acts toward you and with you will speak volumes as to what their interest may be.
