Speaker 1 (00:00):
Welcome to Mastering Dating, broadcasting to eighty five countries worldwide.
With a wealth of experience as a seasoned dating coach,
your host at Mastering Dating has empowered clients globally and
now she's here to share valuable insights with you. So
sit back, relax, and get ready to dive into today's episode.
Speaker 2 (00:34):
Welcome to Mastering Dating. I'm Felesca, you're dating coach. So
great to be back for another episode. I hope you're
having a great week so far. In today's episode, we're
going to be talking about the different ways to tell
when someone is interested in you. So we're going to
be looking at behavior. How does someone behave when they're
(00:56):
interested in you? How can you tell they like you
without you actually having to ask if they like you
or without them having to tell you that they like you.
So here are some of the ways that you can tell.
The first one is that there will be frequent attention.
They're going to go out of their way to notice you,
(01:18):
whether it's considered eye contact or smiling or just making
an effort to start conversations with you. The key is
that it's going to be consistent. So if they're consistently
giving you eye contact and smiling and making an effort
to start conversations, since that's a very good sign that
(01:39):
they're into you. Of course, anyone can do this, a
friend and acquaintance, a coworker, and it doesn't necessarily mean
that they like you. But that's why you have to
look at the situation from all angles. You have to
see all the signs to see whether all the signs
are there or not. So that's what I want you
to do. I want you to take all of the
signs that I'm going to share with you today and
(02:01):
see how many of those the person has. Okay, So
the next one is physical closeness. This is a big one.
An acquaintance or just a regular coworker is not going
to do this unless they are trying to actually get
a little closer to you physically. But physical closeness is
a good sign because they will find reasons to sit
(02:22):
or stand near you, or maybe they even lean in
when talking to you and give you intense eye contact,
or find an excuse to touch your arm, or maybe
they say something they laugh and then they touch your arm.
I mean, I've done that. So that's a classic move
right there, and it's not really done purposely, but you
(02:43):
will see it. You will see this. If they like you,
that's usually a pretty good indicator that they're into you.
Another one is active listening. Of course, active listening could
just be a sign of respect, so again you have
to look at all the signs and see which ones
are there. But with active listening, they're going to remember
the little things that you've said, So this is a
(03:05):
little different. It's not like actively listening out of respect,
like when you're talking to your boss. This is different.
This is them remembering little details about you, little things
that you've shared with them only one time, and they
actually remember. For example, maybe you told them one time
when your birthday is, and they remember on your birthday
(03:27):
and they surprise you at something, or maybe they remember
you mentioning that a certain toy was your favorite when
you were a kid, and then they mention it next
time you talk active listening. I love this one. It's
one of my favorite signs. It really shows that they're
interested in you when they do this. And then the
other one is nervous energy. This is a very very
(03:51):
typical sign that not every person is going to have.
Not every person gets nervous around the person they're crushing on,
but I would say more people do. Maybe they'll fidget,
maybe they'll blush a little or stumble over words when
talking to you, or maybe they seem a little bit
too excited or a little bit nervous. These are all signs.
(04:12):
But also if they seem really weird and off suddenly,
like let's say they're usually easygoing and smiling, and suddenly
they're acting completely different with you, that in itself is
actually a sign too. So if they always smile and
then after some time passes they smile a little less
and act kind of serious around you, that can be
(04:33):
a sign that they like you now and they've realized
they like you, and they don't really know what to
do with these new feelings that they have for you,
so look out for that too. And then the other
one is that they find excuses to interact with you.
They might text you randomly asking for advice or seeking
help with things that they can probably figure out on
(04:55):
their own and don't really need your help your help with,
but they just want to ask you anyways because they're
finding an excuse to talk to you. Another one is
that they tease you or they compliment to you. If
they tease you in a flirty way, or they go
out of their way to compliment you, or maybe they
tease you and compliment you, that's a great sign that
(05:18):
they like you. Another very common one is mirroring. This
is done completely unconsciously. It's not like they're sitting there
thinking to themselves, Okay, let me mirror everything that he
does or she does. But you will see unconsciously that
they are mimicking your gestures, your speech patterns, your posture.
(05:40):
This is actually a sign of comfort and connection when
they mirror you like that. Another sign is that maybe
they're jealous or protective. Obviously, if someone's very jealous or
very protective, that can be a toxic sign. That's not
necessarily a good thing. But if it's just a little
bit of jealous heial little bit of protectiveness, that's actually
(06:01):
quite sweet and quite cute and a great sign that
they like you. For example, I used to have this
one boyfriend a long long time ago who was protective
over me in this way. He would always remind me
to put on like the heaviest coat so that I
wouldn't be cold when it snows outside. He would remind
(06:23):
me to pack my gloves, or remind me to take
my umbrella so I don't get caught in the rain.
You know, little things like that, which I loved because
it always made me feel like he really cared for me.
So look for little signs like that too. The other
one is that they make you a priority. They make
time for you. Come on, we're all busy. I don't
(06:44):
want to hear there's no time. Okay, if you really
like someone, I promise you you will make time if
you really like them. There is no such thing as
I'm too busy to send a text message in one minute.
You know, it takes one minute to send a text,
or I'm too busy to call and say hello also
takes like two minutes. It's not something that time consuming.
(07:06):
So if they make time for you even when they're busy,
or they also like show up at places that you
usually go to, the Starbucks you always go to buy
your drink during your lunch break, or the restaurant that
you like to eat at after work, you know, places
like that. Situations like that, then that's a good sign
(07:26):
that they like you. And then the other one is
direct communication. I love direct communication. One of my biggest
pet peeves is when someone just dances around their emotions,
they don't clarify how they feel, they don't say what
they want or say what they feel. This was always
one of my pet peeves. Just say it, be bold,
(07:47):
be outright. And people who do that are usually people
who know exactly what they want and are not afraid
to speak up or go after what they want. And
that's actually a great quality, and that's the kind of
partner you want to aim for. You want to aim
for a partner who's not going to be afraid to
show up in his emotion, to show up with his
communication and really directly communicate to you what it is
(08:10):
that he feels. Someone who's not afraid to say, hey,
I enjoy your company, let's go out for dinner, or
someone who's not afraid to compliment you or you know,
or flirt with you, or show some kind of a
sign that they're into you. Right, it shouldn't be a
guessing game. You shouldn't have to sit there and think
about it and guess for hours and hours whether they
(08:32):
like you. But what you can do is look for
these little signs that I just shared with you. Remember
if they actually really do like you, These signs will
be pretty obvious if you just sit back and pay
attention a few times and see how they are. These
signs indicate that they do like you. You might see
(08:52):
one or two or three of these signs, or you
might see all of them, but look for these signs together.
Remember that just one thing, like let's say the active listening,
doesn't really mean anything because your boss could actively listen
to you, but them remembering little details about you right
like when your birthday is or yeah, that your grandmother
used to make your cookies when you were five and
(09:12):
you loved her cookies. You know, little things like that
are a great sign that they're into you. So I
hope that these tips were helpful for you today. Thank
you so much for showing up and listening to my podcast.
Thank you for the support, and I love you. Guys.
Have a wonderful, wonderful day. I'll be back again soon
with another episode. Have a nice day.
