14 Signs your Guy friend Really likes you

Hi Dearie,

As accomplished women, we often win at solving complex situations, whether in the boardroom or managing a project. Yet, understanding the subtle cues of a guy friend’s romantic interest can be difficult.

If you’re trying to figure out whether your guy friend has deeper feelings for you, here are 14 signs that could indicate he’s interested.

1. He Asks About Your Relationship Status

You might have heard him frequently ask about your weekend plans or inquire if you’re dating anyone. Don’t see him as weird or creepy because such questions are his way of finding out if you’re available and gauging if he can take things further, or avoid wasted efforts.

2. He Faces You Directly

Body language can be very telling. If he frequently repositions his body to face you, even in group settings, it shows he’s engaged and focused on you. This type of body orientation indicates he’s interested in what you have to say and wants to connect more closely.

3. He Maintains Prolonged Eye Contact

Eye contact can reveal a lot about someone’s feelings. In my experience as a relationship coach, I discovered that men who are interested romantically tend to make more eye contact with the object of their affection. If he’s holding your gaze longer than usual, he might be trying to connect on a deeper level.

4. He Frequently Uses Your Name

Hearing your name often in conversation can be a simple yet powerful sign of affection. If he smiles while saying your name, it indicates he enjoys your presence and finds pleasure in talking to you.

I once had a talented friend that turned any little words into songs. And hearing him call ” Sa-ra-ah-ah” forces me to smile even when in bad mood.

5. He Makes You Laugh

Studies show that people use humor to connect with those they are attracted to, and humor is one of the best ways a guy tries to bond. So If he’s always trying to make you laugh, he’s not being a dummy. It’s a sign he wants to impress you. 

His jokes and playful banter might be his way of showing interest.

6. He Frequently Offers His Help

If he consistently offers to help you, whether it’s with a project or a personal task, it’s a sign he wants to be there for you. 

Acts of service are often a way to show he cares and wants to be involved in your life.

7. He Matches His Walking Pace with Yours

A subtle but telling sign of interest is when a guy adjusts his walking pace to match yours. Quality men often walk majestically or at a normal pace but often slow down to stay alongside women they are attracted to. This indicates a desire to remain attentive and close.

8. He Observes You

A guy who observes and comment on any little change in your appearance is playing close attention, believe me.

He says sweet things like your new hairstyle makes you look prettier. or your outfit looks amazing. This level of observation means he’s interested in you and values the little things that make you unique.

9. He Finds Excuses to Touch You

Touch is a powerful way to express interest and can increase feelings of attraction and closeness. 

Both genders do this so well.

Those light touches on your arm or a playful nudge can indicate he wants to bridge the gap between friendship and something more.

10. He Remembers What You Say

Even if he’s forgetful in other aspects of life, he’ll remember details from your conversations, like your favorite pet or your dream clients, it’s a sign he’s paying attention and values your words. Remembering these details shows he prioritizes you in his thoughts.

11. He Tries to Impress You

Confident guys often showcase their talents or achievements to impress someone they like. Whether he’s highlighting his skills, presenting speeches or sharing his successes, it’s likely he’s trying to catch your attention and admiration.

A weight lifter for example would go more reps with intentions of making you go “wow”.

12. He Initiates Conversations

If he often texts or calls you first, it means you’re on his mind. 

High value men usually don’t invest time in casual chats unless they have a request or a deeper interest. Frequent initiation of contact is a clear sign he wants to stay connected with you.

13. He Enjoys Spending Time with You

When a guy wants to spend time with you expecially during the day, it shows he values your company beyond just romantic settings. 

Activities like coffee dates, hikes, dinner sometimes, or weekend drives shows he enjoys your presence and wants to build a deeper connection.

14. His Friends Often Excuse Themselves 

Friends can often reveal what someone is feeling. If his friends frequently excuses themselves leaving you two alone, it might be because they know he likes you and are giving him a chance to express his feelings. Lol I’ve witnessed this time and time again, and I’m sure you have witnessed such except he’s a loner.

Understanding if your guy friend has romantic feelings for you can be a bit challenging, but these signs can help clarify his intentions. As high-achieving women, we deserve clarity and understanding in all aspects of our lives, including relationships.
