. Pay attention to your conversations with the person in question. Does this person show a special interest in having a conversation with you and, once started, make an effort to keep that conversation going?

2. Is this person "accidentally" running into you in places where he or she knows you will be, such as at your desk? At the Laundromat on Tuesdays? At your brother's birthday party?

3. Make a note if he or she mentions future plans to spend time with you: "That band is coming to town soon. We should really get tickets."

4. Spend time alone together. Canceling other plans in order to be with you longer, or not finding excuses to leave, could be a sign of interest.

5. Has he or she been calling for random reasons, such as, "I was wondering if you knew what that pizza place down the street is called," followed by, "Are you hungry?"

6. Has this person taken a sudden interest in your life and hobbies? This is a sure sign that he or she is interested in something - and it's probably not your stamp collection.

7. Observe how the person acts around your friends - he or she might be extra friendly to your closest pals for a reason.


Body Language

Steps:
1. Sometimes seeing someone you have a crush on results in telltale physiological signs. Does the person in question blush when you look at him or her? His or her sympathetic nervous system is probably going into overdrive. Does he or she have trouble speaking, using jumbled words when talking to you?

2. See if the person in question mirrors your motions: When you lean back, he or she leans back; when you put your elbows on the table, he or she does the same.

3. Note whether this person sits or stands in the open position - that is, facing you with arms uncrossed. In addition, a woman tends to cross her legs in a man's direction.

4. Does he or she move closer to you and/or touch you subtly, such as with a pat of your hand or a touch of your cheek?

5. Other elements of body language include frequent eye contact, holding your gaze and looking down before looking away, energetic speech coupled with open hands, and flashing palms.

6. Does the person you're wondering about just plain smile at you a lot?

All that is pretty much bang on. She'll often mirror my movements (noticed this yesterday thus why I'm posting today!) as I will hers (I don't even know I'm doing it, I just do it?!) and we pretty much always make eye contact every few minutes among all the other things listed. Arrggg!!

no its the same one. Anyway i was in the train yesterday coming back from uni, and there was this girl sitting infront of me doing her makeup and looking into the mirror and kept looking behind. I could see her staring at me from the window reflection.

1. Keep an eye on how many times you catch her staring at you.

2. Take notice of whether she smiles at you a lot.

3. Look for whether she focuses on you in a crowd.

4. Observe if she has suddenly taken more interest in your friends.

5. Pay attention to any significant changes in her behavior toward you recently.

6. Start showing her a bit more interest and see how they respond.

7. Have a friend talk to her or one of her friends about you.

8. 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, these steps are your last resort!
Remember, this is not an exact science, and it may take a few mistakes to perfect your technique



Wow, you must have lots of 'girl friends'. Or you must be at experienced at reading girls :p:.

I just wish I can understand lads, cos I'm hopeless...:redface:

She MIGHT become a bit more shy when talking to you, but still seem to want to talk to you for longer. She'll be concerned if you seem unhappy and want to share your happiness if you're really happy about something. Umm....LAUGH at your jokes even if they are fcking lame!! Maybe tell you things that are a bit secret (nothing really embarassing obviously!) but just so that it's something only the two of you know. She'll be smiley when the two of you are alone. Oh and definitely 'body contact'...like play fighting, "casually" touching your arm or whatever :P

since when has "cheek touching" been subtle.

All that together would be about as subtle as a beached whale. :biggrin:
you'll have problems with women if you try to read them like that...

the trick is to assume that they like you, and act accordingly
