Most girls have at least one male friend in their life who they’ve known for some time, and at some point, it crosses their mind, “does he like me more than a friend?”
Is he pining for you like a lost Labrador puppy, or are you firmly in the friend zone?
Maybe you’re recent office buddies or have been best friends for years, and you’re starting to feel that the friendly vibes are transitioning into something more.
Your conversations are getting flirtier each day. But it’s often tricky to know if it’s harmless banter or if there are genuine deeper feelings there.
You probably don’t feel comfortable talking about it with him or even your girlfriends just in case it gets back to him, and you’ve got the total wrong end of the stick. It’s not worth ruining your friendship over.
Signs he secretly likes you more than a friend.
Fidgeting, laughing hysterically, avoiding eye contact, rocking, cracking knuckles, becoming stiff — all these are subtle signs a guy likes you more than a friend. Body language signs of attraction are almost unavoidable. So if he suppresses it, say fidgeting, he might become unusually stiff.
He tells his friends about you in a good way. If a guy likes you, even if it’s secret, then he’s going to tell everyone that he knows about you. Guys can’t help it. They will always tell their good friends about the girl they have a crush on.
Alright, so you’ve got this guy friend who you’ve developed a crush on.
Great!
But how does he feel about you?
That’s the important question.
After all, friends-turned-lovers don’t always go as planned, so you need to make sure that he likes you before making a move.

Thank you …. Have you ever wondered what makes a man think a woman is marriage material?
What has to happen for that switch to flip inside a man’s brain where he finally realizes, “yes, this is the woman I want to spend the rest of my life with, no ifs, buts, or maybes?”
Are men looking for a woman with the perfect supermodel figure?
A woman who likes all the same things he does and agrees with everything he says?
A woman who has a rich, vibrant life and is always doing something exciting?
While all of the above might initially pique a man’s interest, none are enough to get him to stick around long-term and put a ring on a woman’s finger.
So, what are men looking for before they marry a woman?
If he replies to you in a timely manner, never leaves you on read, and messages you pretty often, then it’s likely caught feelings. It’s a sign that you’re on the top of his mind and he enjoys communicating with you.
Of course, this could also be a sign that he values the friendship. But it’s possible it can blossom into more if he enjoys talking to you this much.
Not only is this a sign he likes interacting with you, but that he always wants to get your attention. He’s trying to let you know he likes your photos and is interested in what you’re doing and what you have to say.
If he’s commenting publicly, it also means he’s not afraid to let others know of his interest in you.
Do you want to add a word or two?
Think of it this way – if you’re interested in a guy, you’re not going to want to hear him go on and on about the girl he’s dating or has a crush on. So, why would he feel any different if he likes you?
If he seems uninterested, tries to change the topic, or his body language seems awkward, it’s a sign he doesn’t want to hear you talk about your love life – and the reason is probably that he’s secretly crushing on you.
If a guy wants to be more than friends, then the object of his affection is going to be you and not another girl.
He’ll likely avoid discussing his love life in front of you because he doesn’t want to make you jealous or he doesn’t have one. Of course, some guys may brag about the women they’re to the girl they actually like jealous.
This is a sign of immaturity, so proceed with caution if this is the case.
Body language says a lot about a person’s feelings. So, if he’s constantly trying to make physical contact with you, it’s a strong sign he’s hoping your friendship will turn into more.
Compare how often he hugs you, puts his arm around you, or simply gets close when you’re sitting together. If his actions appear to express interest, then his heart is likely doing the same. This is another one of those major signs he secretly likes you as more than a friend.
Your Comments……
But, if you’re tired of always being approached by players and bad boys, you might want to consider learning how to spot the signs that a good man secretly likes you.
From there, you can perhaps give a few extra hints that you’re into him, so he gains the confidence to make the first move on you. Better yet, you could make the first move yourself.
Most men will love it if you do that. In many cases, it could be your best chance of landing a good guy all for yourself.
Rapport-seeking behavior includes smiling, mirroring someone’s mannerisms, repeating what they say, laughing at their jokes or talking with an upwards tonality.
Men and women will engage in this just because they want to be nice to someone. But when we have a crush, we tend to overdo it. If he’s engaging in more of this rapport-seeking behavior around you compared to his buddies, that’s a surefire sign that he’s developing a crush.
This is a type of behavior that most men can’t help but fall into, even if they would like to hide their true feelings.
So, if you have a crush on this guy too, it’s in your best interest to help create this moment by hinting that you’re attracted to him too.
However, in most cases, he agrees to this because he’s attracted to you. He sees it as an opportunity to get in your good books or to spend more time with you.
Want to tell the difference between a ‘nice guy’ and a guy who’s genuinely interested?
Once again, the secret is to compare how he treats his other pals. If he’s doing more for you than he does for them, that’s a clear sign of attraction towards you.
When a guy is nervous to reveal his attraction towards you, he’ll often opt for the ‘friendship first’ approach.
Essentially, this means he’ll aim to become close friends in the hope that you develop feelings for him – and maybe even make a move first.
Regardless of how you think this is, it happens a lot. Of course, there are also guys who just want your friendship.
So, how can you tell the difference between a best friend and a crush in disguise?
