How can I tell if he likes me?

I met a guy offline, and we have been texting for a few weeks quite alot. We went out on our first date, and had a quite enjoyable, fun time! At the end of the date, the guy gave me a hug. Does that mean he likes me? He also asked if I wanted to do something the following weekend. Help, I am not good at reading if a guy likes me!

    How to tell if he likes you

    (and if he's flirting with you in his special own guy-way).

    A lot depends on the type of guy and his individual personality.

    Shy Guys

    These are tough to crack sometimes...

    *He'll look at you, until you turn around, then boom, he's looking the other way.

    You may 'feel' like he's watching you - but he's hard to catch at it

    * He may do something physical - like grab you in a play way, poke you, play with your hair...

    (Remember when you were really young and the guy you liked punched you or tackled you?)

    *He may be working really hard to pay attention to you, but doesn't quite know how...

    *He may ask a friend of yours about you - he'll say it's just for "friend of mine" that wants to know about you.

    *He talks to everybody else - but when you're around he turns silent, or chokes up.

    You seem to accidentally bump into him a lot of different places.

    *He may not say a word to you, but he shows up in the same line, at the same movie, etc.

    *He'll give you a little smile from across the room, but if you get near, he won't look up.

    Basically - the BIG clue is that his behavior changes when you're around (compared to when he's around his buds or other girls).

    DEAD Giveaway - when you talk to him he turns red.

    (Bingo - you can pack that puppy up and take him home...)

    These are some of the more subtle clues - keep your eyes open - you may have more guys flirting with you than you realize!!!

    *He remembers little things you mention in casual conversation.

    It may take you by surprise. You might have been talking when he was around and two weeks later he'll say, "Well, you like orange fizz..."

    *His voice changes when he talks to you in a group. He may say "Hey." to everyone with you, but the "Hey." to you is a little different.

    *His voice gets softer when the two of you talk.

    Sometimes he stares straight into your eyes.

    *His eyes get 'soft' when he looks at you. They change slightly or get relaxed around the edges. It's subtle, but you can tell if you watch...

    (You may already be aware of it at a subconscious level - that's what made you start wondering if he likes you...)

    When he's near you or talking with you, his eyes travel in a little circle around your face and land back on your eyes. (Like he's looking at your whole face - then back to your eyes.)

    *He watches your lips. (Dead give away.)

    *His friends start asking you questions - if you haven't met him yet - they may ask what your name is. Or may ask you what you think about 'him.'

    If his friends are paying attention to you after he's been staring at you - it can mean that he's been talking about you.

    *He tells you that you smell nice...

    (No hidden meaning here - it's a good thing.)

    *He might act weird around you or seem very nervous. His behavior may just plain change when you're around.

    If he's normally quiet, he may get louder, or vice versa. It's the difference in behavior that's the clue.

    Take care.
