Girls would usually be able to pick up if a guy fancies her. :smile: They're just obvious. hahahahaha of course, I can be wrong.

Act like yourself, get to know them and THEN drop hints.

I try to conceal the fact I like them as much as possible.

staring is a huge giveaway. guys don't seem to have peripheral visions.

around you... depends if they're shy or not. if they're shy, they'll probably avoid eye contact and not say a lot. look all flustered when you talk to them. if they're not shy, they'll probably try and be extra nice to you. get your attention. go with your instincts.
I'm useless when it come to this. I tend to either say or do nothing...often leading on to my practically ignorning the person...even when I know them...

..,maybe this is why I've single for a fair while now...
they might try not to make it obvious e.g staring at you and turn away as soon as you notice or they try to show off in front of you.

I'd usually say tell them directly that you like them but after doing that over 2 weeks ago and still having no response, I doubt I'd recommend it now :rolleyes: . It's really embarrassing, but if you like them enough you'll go for it.

drop hint and signals..most people will pick up on whether you like them, if they pick up on it and like you then hopefully you'll get a similar response. Id find someone coming out with it directly at me a bit embarrasing and would probably not respond very well to it so I think the subtle approach is less embarrasing for both parties and at the end of the day flirting is fun!! :smile:

Im a shy person but if I like someone ill try to engage in conversation with them whenever I can. Also I stare a lot...it helps me to read the girl. Lol.

Just avoid them :p:
Just be yourself and get to know the girl.
If I want someone I have to be direct, but that said I fancy a lot of people at any one given time but don't necessarily want things to happen with all of them. I have to be completely direct because I flirt constantly with everyone, and everyone knows that, so I could be downright sexually explicit talking to a girl and if she knew me at all would just know I was just being me.

So yeah basically if I actually do want to hook up with someone I just try to make sure they're interested then make a move.

Be CAREFUL though, don't get to know a girl too well without at least hinting that you're interested, or you'll fall into the friendship trap (which believe me, sucks balls. I was 'best friends' with a girl for like 2 years and all I really wanted was a shag. Never happened.)
^^but toy soldier, did you enjoy being her friend for 2 years too?? despite never getting it on?!

Here's what to do:

Make sure you've had the crush for at least a year
Post endlessly on TSR asking for advice
Don't take it.
Make the first stage of your first move onn the 2nd to-last day of college.
Don't follow it through.
Miss oportunatey on last day to say goodbye and tell her straight as you promised yourself you'd do

Didn't work for me but.......:redface:

Guys are shady. They are the best actors too. You think they like you, but they just want to hit that.

What hints can you give that you like her more than a friend, as i have had your situation happen to me far too many times :frown:

Girls are too nice for us guys. I mean they string us along so you say nice things, buy them stuff, entertain them etc but once their egos have been fed enough and a bad boy comes along :p: BANG 'im sorry but we're just good friends, your a nice guy, you will find someone better'
