1) Her Friends Give Her Up

The most unmistakable sign that a girl likes you is if her best friends give her up and spillsher secret: She's into you.Her friends might be breaking girl code, but they probably wouldn't share such a weightysecret with you unless they realized that you're also head over heels for their friend.Besides, it's always nice to know that her friends are on your side -- it's like they're givingyou their approval to date her. This is the final and ultimate sign this girl is into you, so ifyou feel the same way, it's time to stop playing games and ask her out.When it's time for the big question (whether that's asking for a date to prom or to see amovie) avoid text messaging, e-mail or Facebook, and, above all, don't use any cheesypick-up lines. While pick-up lines can be funny, they're usually awkward and a majorturnoff for most girls. Be yourself, and she'll dig your individuality.Strike up a friendly conversation by complimenting her on making the dance team atschool, or tell her that you noticed her ordering dinner at your burger joint the weekbefore. Speak slowly and clearly, and look her in the eye, giving her your undividedattention. If there's a dance or some other school function coming up, this might be theperfect opportunity for you to ask her to be your date to the event. Who knows? Your firstdate could turn into a long-term, happy relationship.




2) She's Time Tested

OK, we may be splitting hairs on that beautiful, sweet-smelling head ofhers, but there's a difference between liking, loving or being infatuated withsomeone. The human body is wired to experience infatuation. It's thatamazing, tingly, over-the-moon sensation that tends to last only a matter ofmonths. It's nature's way of making sure you stay together long enough toreproduce [source: Pease].

It's also a play -- three months or a year from now she may look at youblankly, realizing there's not a single quality she admires in you [source:Pease]. In short, she never liked you, but she was infatuated with you. But,hey, infatuation is like a legal drug, and three months to a year is an eternityin some youthful relationships. If her infatuation with you is good enough,enjoy it while it lasts. Just don't reproduce!




3) Your Initials Keep Turning Up

When a girl is really into you, she may find it difficult to think aboutanything else. She wants to talk with her friends about you; she wants tolisten to music that reminds her of you; she may even watch movies thatseem to mimic the love-sick scenario she's in.

But during class, there isn't any way to express the emotion that's bubblingup inside besides inconspicuously writing your name or initials on hernotebook, textbook or even her hand. If your name is John Doe and "J.D."is unmistakably appearing on her class notes, you're in [source:Kirkberger]. It's a classic tell-tale sign. It can't be denied. Unless, of course,her name is Jill Davis, the school quarterback is Jim Dawson or her class isreading "The Catcher in the Rye."




4) She Gets Indirectly to The Point

You and your object of affection technically speak the same language."Technically" being the operative word. You use words from the same mentaldictionary, but your method of conversing can be totally different. It's afrustrating, research-proven fact [source: Tannen]. It also gives you reason to behopeful.

If she's angry with you, the direct interpretation is "she hates me." If she jabberslike a bird in a tree, you might assume "she's interested in everything but me."But consider that maybe, just maybe, her talkativeness is a sign that she trustsyou and enjoys getting closer to you by sharing a multitude of information[source: Tannen].

Her anger could indicate that she wants something more from your relationshipbut you're not getting it. It would be nice if she grabbed your face, told you howmuch she likes you and planted a big ol' kiss on your mug. That level of directnesscan happen, but, odds are she'll make her point indirectly. You've just got to listenand interpret it in a way you're probably unaccustomed to.




5) Casual Meetings Become the Norm

Have you ever been at your after-school job flipping hamburgers and looked up to seethe girl you like ordering at the counter for the third time in a week? If this has startedhappening a lot more than usual, and if she always makes a point to wave and smile atyou when she visits, she might be hoping for a chance to talk to you. Then again, shecould just enjoy a tasty burger, so keep your antennae up for any other possiblemeetings where you think she might seek you out. Maybe she's constantly walking byyour locker to talk to you between classes, or you begin to see her regularly at one ofyour local hangouts. If you start seeing her places where you normally spend freetime, she might be trying to get your attention.

Similarly, any girl who starts attending your after-school activities or sports functions to see you issending a clear signal that she has feelings for you,especially if she's your loudest cheerleader. Maybe herafternoon run leads her through the neighborhoodwhere you and your friends play basketball, and shejust happens to stop and talk for a few minutes to seehow you're doing.





6) She Thinks of You in a Thoughtful Way

A girl who has a genuine interest in you will find ways to do nice things for you. If shesees that you're down about a grade, she'll offer to help you study for the next test. Ifyou both share an interest in a band, she might buy a pair of tickets to a concert andoffer one of them to you. A girl who's into you will show concern or act protective ofyou. If she sees that your current love interest isn't giving you the time of day, she'llswoop in to comfort you -- maybe hoping that you'll notice her, instead.

Another obvious sign that a girl likes you is if she remembers you on significantholidays or your birthday. If your school sells candy cane-grams at Christmas and shebuys one for you, or if she brings you a red velvet cupcake from your favorite localbakery for your birthday, this shows that you're on her mind. Some girls might chooseto give you a gift that sends an obvious message, like a handmade, heart-shaped cardfor Valentine's Day. Others might give you something a little more cryptic, like a mixedCD full of your favorite songs. A good rule of thumb with gifting is the morethoughtful the gift, the more likely a girl is interested in dating you.




7) It's Gotta Be the Shoes!

Yes, it's true that she knows what she's doing when she squeezes your arm or-- at the other end of the spectrum -- rolls her eyes and turns away. Those aredirect forms of body language. But romance can be like a game of poker --you might catch signals she doesn't even realize she's giving off. For that, welook to the shoes.

Renowned British psychologist Geoff Beattie says people try to mask theirfacial expressions but don't realize what they convey with foot movement[source: Wardrop]. If, while she's talking to you, a foot moves away from herlovely form to project a more open posture, that's good. You say her feetnever stop moving and she laughs a lot? That's truly a winning combination[source: Wardrop]. Crossed feet, however, are an indication she's not intoyou.




8) Conversation Is Playful and Inviting

Any girl can be polite and friendly when you strike up aconversation with her, but if she really likes you, theconversation will take a playful and flirtatious turn.She'll laugh at your jokes and go out of her way tocompliment you. Some girls might take the less obviousapproach and tell you they enjoyed watching you scorethe winning goal at your soccer game, but other girlscan be a little more forward. If she leans in andwhispers that you look great in your green shirt, takenote that she's definitely interested in you.

So, where do you go from here? Talking to your crush through text messages andFacebook is one way to go. It's less intimidating than a face-to-face conversation, andyou have plenty of time to come up with answers to tough questions and to think ofsomething clever. The best advantage, because you can't see the other person's facialexpressions, is that the nervous knot in your stomach won't be there.





8) Conversation Is Playful and Inviting

Even if you tend to get anxious in situations thatrequire face time, try talking to the girl you like inperson, too. You don't want to look like you lackself-confidence because you retreat to yourcomputer as a crutch. Also, don't expect a girl toaccept a date if you asked her out by writing on herFacebook wall. And while sending coy texts is anacceptable way to flirt in a relationship, resist theurge to confess your love or ask a girl to animportant event through a text message.Remember, you want her to feel special, and theonly acceptable way to ask her out is by collectingyourself, taking a deep breath and calling her on thephone -- or, better yet, finding a time to ask her outin person. She'll be flattered and appreciate yoursincerity.





9) You've Become an Information Kiosk

If it's common knowledge that you're the best student in science class,then it's natural for people -- like her -- to come to you with questionsabout homework or an upcoming test. But if she texts you with questionsshe could just as easily find elsewhere, pay attention. Is she reaching outto you on Facebook with "Hey, what day is Winter Homecoming?" That'snot a clue, that's a bright orange flare.

Even today, more often than not, the girl wants you to make the firstmove. But that doesn't mean she's out of bounds with lots of indirectreferences [source: Dating Excellent]. Speaking of out of bounds, do youknow when the Friday night football game is? Friday night, you say? Justchecking.




10) Her Body Language is Flirtatious

Paying close attention to a girl's body language is a great way to tell if she likes you. Be onthe lookout for a girl who crosses her legs toward you and plays with her hair whileholding your gaze. While you don't want to have a weird staring contest, eye contact isimportant; it shows you have confidence, which is extremely attractive.

Most girls know what they're doing when it comes to flirting. If the light squeeze she gaveyour arm made your heart pump double-time, it was no accident. More than likely, she'sinterested in you and is trying to let you know in a subtle way, hoping you'll get themessage and return the gesture.

If a girl folds her arms while talking to you, doesn't smile and rolls her eyes when you tryto tell her a joke, it might be time to move on to another available fish in the sea. A girlwho's interested in what you have to say will listen to you and give you her undividedattention. But one who has other things on her mind will allow her eyes to wander, payingattention to everything that's going on except for her conversation with you.




10) Her Body Language is Flirtatious

Still not sure if her body language is giving you the green light? See how a girlresponds to you taking her hand if you want her to follow you through a tightcrowd. If she squeezes your hand back, this is definitely a positive sign. If shedrops your hand like a hot potato, try not to take it personally, but this showsshe's uncomfortable and might not be into you.
