What to Do When You Like Someone
Your heart is beating a mile a minute. Your face is red. Your hands are clammy. And it’s all because he said, “Hey.” Crushes sure can be nerve-wracking. How do you know what to say and do to capture his attention? Luckily for you, we’re here to help! Check out these flirtatious behaviors and comments you can use to make sure he looks your way:
Smile. If he makes you happy, why not show it? Laugh, smile, and giggle when he’s around. Not only will this help him feel warm and comfortable around you, but it’ll also help you shine.
Make eye contact. Looking into those dreamy eyes may seem daunting, but it’s one of the best ways to show your confidence and interest. Simply keep his gaze while he talks to you, and don’t look away when you speak to him. After all, the eyes are the window to the soul.
Lean in. This is a not-so-subtle way to show him you’re interested. Take every opportunity to sit next to him. Let your shoulders or knees brush. Scooch in close while he talks. Position yourself in a way that says, “Hey, I’m into you.”
Ask thoughtful questions. Take some time to get to know him and his interests. Stick with open-ended questions like, “What’s your favorite movie?” and “What’s your favorite childhood memory?”
Be yourself. The most important rule of dating: be authentically you. If he tries to change you, he’s not worth your time! Let him see your flaws, insecurities, and quirks—they’re a part of you, and you shouldn’t have to hide them for someone else.
