1. He Asks You Out

If a guy likes you, he will proactively ask you out. He will take you on dates and plan them in advance.

2. He Sees You at Least Once a Week

If a guy likes you, he will see you every week. Not every two weeks. Not every three weeks.

It doesn’t matter how busy he is. If a guy wants a relationship with you, he will see you weekly.

3. You Know His Friends

If a guy likes you, he will invite you out with him and his friends. You will know his best friend and at least 2-3 other friends.

He'll invite you out to birthday parties, dinners, and other events whenever he can because he enjoys being with you.

4. His Family Knows About You

If a guy’s mom, dad, and/or sister don’t know about you – you are just friends. The family knows about the girlfriend and/or has met them.

5. He Asks About You

A guy that likes you will want to know about your day, your aspirations in life, and YOU!

He’ll ask questions about you vs. being self-centered on himself.

6. He Makes Time for You

Even the busiest of guys will make time to see a girl that they really like. It may be coffee before class in the morning, it could mean a lunch date, or it could mean seeing you before work to go on a run together.

Whatever it is…he will make time to see you.

7. You See Him Friday or Saturday Night

And by night, I mean before 9pm!

A guy who is dating you will want to take you out Friday and/or Saturday night.

8. He Holds Your Hand in Public

Girls: If a guy NEVER holds your hand in public then he isn’t serious about you.

A guy that like you will either hold your hand in public or delicately touch you on your lower back when you walk in front of him.

9. He Asks to Be Exclusive

Even guys that are scared of relationships will ask to be exclusive after 2-3 months.

If a guy hasn’t asked you yet, he isn’t that into you.

10. You Know It

If you are searching for signs that he likes you, he probably doesn’t. The truth is that when a guy likes you, it is so, so clear that there is no doubt in your mind.
