LETS TALK ABOUT LOVE

Keep an eye on how many times you catch her/him staring at you.
Take notice of whether s/he smiles at you a lot.
Look for whether s/he focuses on you in a crowd.
Observe if s/he has suddenly taken more interest in your friends.
Pay attention to any significant changes in her/his behavior toward you recently.
Start showing her/him a bit more interest and see how they respond.
Have a friend talk to her/him or one of her/his friends about you.
Ask, '[name], are you interested in me?'
Tips:
Hopefully you will not have to use steps 7 or 8, but if you're having difficulty reading her/him, these steps are your last resort!
Remember, this is not an exact science, and it may take a few mistakes to perfect your technique



HOW TO KNOW IF HE LIKES YOU





Create opportunities for you to see each other. This might include secretly waiting in the hall or sitting near him/her at lunch.
Make eye contact and smile!
When you pass him/her in the hall, say 'Hi!'
Get to know some of his/her friends
If you have a class together, ask him/her a question about it.
Ask him/her about something you know s/he is interested in.
Ask if s/he wants to hang out sometime.
Tips:
If you're like me, sending these signals can be scary. Start small and work your way up to the tougher steps.
Don't set yourself up to get hurt, make sure you haven't put your entire self-worth into whether or not s/he responds to your signals.
