Here are some of the top signs that someone is crushing on you:

- They make a lot of eye contact and smile at you when you're together.
- They try to sit or stand next to you at group hangouts.
- They act a little nervous or awkward when you're talking to each other.
- They text you just to chat about life and random things.
- They tease you playfully.
- They compliment you on small things, like your haircut or new shoes.
- They put extra effort into their appearance when they know they're going to see you.
You can tell when somebody is interested in you based on many things. Number one, body language is key. When somebody is looking at you and they're smiling a lot and making eye contact and little touches on your arm, elbow, or back while you're talking, those are tremendous signs of interest. Any physical touches that you're receiving are a sign.
Second, personal questions that show genuine interest. If they go really deep and ask personal questions that are meaningful, with full attention and everything like that, that’s a major sign.
Finally, a tip that's not as generic that a guy can use on a date, specifically that I used to always notice a lot, is that when a girl was sitting with me and was really into me, she would go to the bathroom and come back with a fresh coat of lipstick on and you could tell that she freshened up her makeup. I instinctively knew she wanted to be kissed or planned on being kissed. She wanted to make sure she looked good. So that to me is a tremendous sign.

They might have a crush on you if they make frequent eye contact, find excuses to talk to you, remember small details, get nervous around you, or engage with you a lot online. 😊

Ask their friends. If they don’t tell you then you have to see if they act different around you. If they have no friends then idk what to say.
See if they text first or if they laugh at something that you know isn’t that funny. Oh and if they hug or touch you then they for sure like you. And if you’re not sure then you have to ask for their number. I know it’s really hard but you have to do it. If you don’t then you’re gonna get nowhere. Oh and also, when you’re around them, ACT NORMAL. Ok I’m done now.

When a girl has a crush on you, try to catch them staring at you. It's a sign that she had a crush on you.

If you have been hanging out with someone for a long time you know how they act around you so if they start acting different or shy then they probably have a crush on you.
As a kid: If their friends are talking about you and giggling when your around or in the hallway they joke around with her about you then she likes you.

Sometimes, the signs can be confusing, especially when someone is naturally friendly or outgoing. Besides the signs mentioned, I think the frequency and type of interaction play a key role. If someone constantly finds excuses to talk to you or shares personal details without being asked, it could be a sign. I've also noticed that when there's interest, the person tends to remember small things you mentioned in past conversations. Has anyone else experienced this?
