If he breaks his facial expression to smile at you, this is often a sure-fire sign that he’s crushing on you. For instance, his face may light up when you pass him in the hallway.
A shy guy may still like you even if he doesn’t make eye contact often, so don’t let this dissuade you.
Also notice if he finds excuses to touch you, like brushing your leg with his or finding a reason to give you a hug.
Guys typically don’t act nervous around people they don’t like.
Additionally, if he sees you from across the room or hallway, he may start to walk at your pace as you cross paths.
These motions often happen quickly and soon after he sees you, so keep your eyes peeled. Also watch to see if he quickly glances away when you notice that he’s looking at you.
For example, if you are in the same class, he may say “Wow, you’re so smart,” after you tell him the grade of your last exam.
For example, he may ask you if you saw the latest sports game for your favorite team. He may also ask questions to get to know you better. For instance, if you mention you have a brother, he may ask if you have other siblings.
For instance, he may say “I really like your new shoes,” or “Hey, since when do you wear purple lipstick?”
For instance, if you tell him that Doctor Who is your favorite show and a few weeks later he starts talking about an episode, he may have a crush on you.
For example, he may send you a funny picture, interesting video, or neat article.
For example, he may mock your tone of voice, inflection, or accent. He also may point out little details, like a stain on your shirt or how you often bite your lip when nervous. Notice if he flirts or teases with lots of other people. If so, this may not be a fool-proof sign.
For example, if he regularly tells you about his upcoming football games, he may want you to show up and watch.
For instance, his friends might start making kissing sounds when they notice him talking to you in the hallway.
For example, perhaps you are chatting with a few friends at your locker in between class. After your crush tells everyone about his weekend plans, if he looks at you right away, he may want you to say something back.
