Feelings of attraction or crushing on someone are complicated, and often hard to identify. We tend to second guess our instincts, and ask ourselves; do I really like her that much? Is she looking extra pretty today, or is it just me?
Do you feel the same way about a specific girl? If you’re hoping to find out whether you’ve got real feelings for her or not, this article is the right place to be. We’ve listed and explained 11 direct signs that point towards you liking somebody. If you identify with most or all of these traits, chances are you’re in for your next romantic endeavor. Keep reading!
1. You look at her but don’t want her to know
Men look at girls they’re into, all the time! You can even catch yourself doing it a lot of times, just because of how often it’ll happen. Whenever that special someone is around you, there’s just nowhere more interesting to look than her face, and her smile. As soon as she turns around or looks at you, you tend to look away! This means you like glancing at her but don’t want her to catch you – that’s a sign of catching feelings right there. If that’s something you can relate to, then yeah, it does sound like you’ve ticked the first box.
2. You pay attention when she speaks and memorize a lot about her
Whenever that special someone speaks, your focus seems to be laser-sharp. It’s like you couldn’t care less about the rest of the word, and all your attention is tunneled to her words. You even remember the stuff she says, in an attempt to memorize more of her personality traits. Right now, if you can remember something she said weeks ago, then this in itself is a green signal that you’ve got feelings for her.
As a little confirmation to this particular sign, ask yourself if you’ve taken a deep dive into any of their social media handles. Have you ever just looked her up and scrolled, trying your best not to like something unintentionally?
3. Your own body language communicates that you’re interested
You might be an expert at pretending to be uninvolved, your body language will show what’s going on. No matter how hard you try to play it cool, the countless body language signs always show what’s really going on.
Is your body faced in their direction all the time? Do you tend to mirror their gestures and body language? Do you sit or stand in a similar way to their posture? If all that’s happening, then it’s your subconscious self, showing her that you may be a good match for her.
4. You’re protective of her
If you truly like her, and aren’t just after that one thing, you’ll try your best to protect her at all costs. That’s just natural instinct for any man who really likes a girl, and there’s not much you can do about it. You’ll be able to tell if your protective behavior around her is just your personality, or something special that you don’t feel commonly. If you like her, then seeing her upset, distressed, or harmed will naturally bother you. Even behind her back, when someone mentions her in a negative light, you’ll find yourself defending her. This is a strong sign that you truly respect her, and really like her!
5. You’re jealous
No matter how hard you try to fight your own feelings towards this girl, you won’t be able to control jealousy. It’s not something you choose, but whenever other men are interested in that specific girl, you always get that threatened, uncomfortable feeling. That’s jealousy, and usually only occurs when you’re truly interested in someone in a romantic way. You just don’t want anyone to be with her, and the thought of her liking someone back is horrifying to you. If that’s what’s going on, buckle up for love!
6. You hate the guy she’s interested in
This one can also be termed as jealousy, but it’s a very specific kind. If you’re really into this girl, you’ll naturally feel sour energy with any guy she shows interest in. If you know her as a friend, you’ll find yourself taking her out of her crush, telling her how it’s a bad idea or how the guy’s just a player. You may feel that she deserves way better, which is often a healthy sign of having feelings for her.
If you feel like you’d be the right guy for her, putting in the time and energy she deserves, then you’re attracted to her. Going to lengths trying to break her interest in other men is a sign in and of itself, so ask yourself if you do that a lot.
7. You go cold on her
Whenever men get confused over whether or not they like a certain girl, there’s a defensive mechanism to push those feelings down inside. As a result, you may find yourself acting strange around this girl, going hot and cold on her. If you’re really trying to fight the obvious feelings you have for her, you’ll randomly act cold around her, just to communicate that you aren’t that into her. But in fact, that may just be a sign that you really are into her – a lot!
Actively trying to cut all communication with them, not seeing her in weeks, and just trying not to look at them in a group setting (even though you want to) – all of these are signs of fighting your feelings for her!
8. You make excuses to talk to her
If men like a girl, they’ll generally find excuses to talk to them. Even if it’s just for a few seconds, a small interaction can be enough to make their day special. If you also catch yourself making excuses to speak to her occasionally, you probably really like her.
You might know what the math homework is but still choose to ask her. In an office setting, even if you don’t really care about what the presentation said, you choose to talk about it and ask her. Any opportunity to speak to them directly just brings you a special sort of happiness. If that’s the case, you’re super interested in this girl!
9. You try hard to impress her
As a man experiencing a major crush on a woman, you’ll try your absolute best to make sure she sees the best possible version of you. You’ll make an active effort to be at your best behavior around them. You’ll dress better, act better, try being funnier, and possibly talk in a deeper voice. If that’s what’s happening, you’re trying super hard to impress her, and that just means you’re into her. If you’ve bought a new perfume with her in mind, or pick a shirt to wear while thinking about her preferences, you’ve got some feelings for her!
10. He asks you to hang out instead of going on a date.
You love to be around them and find ways to do that more often. Spending time with her brings you the most joy, but you struggle to set that up for as long as you might want. Obviously, you don’t have the guts to ask her out on a date right away, because you’re not even done hiding your feelings for her just yet. However, if you ask her to hang out more often than your other female friends, it’s probably because you enjoy her company in a different way; a more romantic way. Whenever she’s coming to a hangout, you’re going – even if it’s not something you’d commonly show up to.
11. When people say you like her, you shut down the ‘rumors’
When two people like each other or have sexual tension in between, the other people around feel it. The vibe is too obvious and pushed people to mention it later on. When they do mention it with you though, saying there’s a special chemistry between the two of you, you immediately try to shut that idea down. You act like your friends are being silly, even though they’re actually being pretty spot-on!
This happens because you don’t really want to fill others in on your little romantic endeavor just yet. You don’t want the girl to find out you’re into her right now, so your only option is to deny it when someone brings it up. Secretly, you do like it when people think you’d make a good couple. If that’s the case, you probably really are fighting your feelings for her!
How to tell a man is attracted to you but hiding his feelings
Men don’t often admit when they get involved in feelings for a girl. Not just to others, but they refuse to accept it themselves in the beginning. If you’re also one of these men and are unsure as to whether or not you like a girl romantically, this article was meant for you! These 11 signs occur when there’s a strong case of being into a girl, and if you identify with them, you’ll have found your answer. All the best!
Many different types of energies exist around us. These include negative and positive energies which can affect us physically, mentally, and spiritually. Energies affect the way we act. They also play a significant role in the actions we take and the way we behave. Negative energy can be even more toxic for us if we aren’t aware of it. This is the reason it is so important to study your behavior and that of the people around you so that you are well aware of the energies surrounding you. Clearing negative energy from your body and soul is very important for your physical and mental well being.
1. You are unable to control your emotions
When we continuously go through many bad experiences, it makes us keep our guard up all the time. This may be helpful in some situations but this also makes it harder for us to approach people and vice versa. If you are thinking with your heart and not with your brain, meaning you are letting your emotions get the best of you and aren’t thinking logically, it may be a sign that there is negative energy present around you. This energy makes you think emotionally and that will have a bad effect on your personal as well as professional life. The best way to remove this negative energy is to let the past go and cut off any toxic friends from your life.
2. You compare yourself to others
It is human nature to compare yourself to other people. But when you start doing it all the time and let it affect your work and personal life, it causes problems for you. So, if you are constantly comparing yourself to a successful friend or colleague, chances are that you are surrounded by negative energy that is making you feel and act this way. This is bound to make you feel worse about yourself. Remember that life is not a race. You are allowed to go at your own pace. Remind yourself that the person you're comparing yourself is human too and they aren’t perfect either. Allow yourself to enjoy things. Comparing yourself to others won’t make you happy or successful but only allow negative energy around you.
3. You aren’t making time for yourself
Life is busy, we all know that. But nothing is more important than your own physical and mental well being. When you are working long hours the whole week and not taking time out for yourself or your family that is a sign that you are surrounded by negative energy. It is very important to take a few days off and rest. Give yourself some peace of mind. Our brain isn’t a machine and it also gets tired from all the continuous hard work. Everyone is in a race to be the best in life but that should not come at the cost of your well being or happiness. Giving your mind and your body the rest it needs is the best way to remove this type of negative energy.
4. You criticize yourself way too much
Most of the time, when we’re doing a task, there is a voice in our head. This voice either cheers us up or makes us sad. This depends on the energy you're surrounded by. Remember that we control our brain, it does not control us. So whenever the voice in your head is telling you that you're a loser who hasn’t achieved anything, ignore it. If you won’t say such rude stuff to another person, then why are you saying it to yourself? The way we act towards ourselves plays a big role in our behavior and actions. Don’t let the voice in your mind make you feel unworthy. Rather, stand in front of the mirror and give compliments to yourself. Reward yourself for doing the smallest of tasks. This is the best way to remove the negative energy around you.
5. You are addicted to social media
This is another big sign that you are affected by negative energy. You are checking your phone every two seconds to see if there is a new message or notification. You spend most of your time on social media. You randomly keep scrolling through Facebook or Instagram even though you have important work to do. Or you're using social media as an escape or a coping mechanism. What we see on social media isn’t real and when you start spending too much time on these apps it creates a different image of the world in your head and you start comparing your own life to that of influencers or celebrities. This causes you to feel bad about yourself. Limit your time on your phone and remove this negative energy from your life.
6. You don’t let go of your past
To move on, we must let go of our past mistakes and failures. If we’re stuck in the past, it would be impossible for us to live in the present. So, let go of your past mistakes. Remember that you are a changed person now with different goals and aspirations. Clear your mind of your past and move on. This negative energy will lead you nowhere better.
7. You're too hard on yourself
Negative energy makes you feel bad about yourself which in turn makes you think that you should overwork yourself and be productive all the time. This type of thinking is wrong as we can do a certain amount of work before our body gives up and reaches its limit. Don’t be too hard on yourself and allow yourself to take breaks. Go for a walk in the park or watch a T.V show. This will take your mind off of stuff and fill your body with positive energy.
8. You constantly blame others
Whenever something goes wrong in your life, you immediately blame another person without even analyzing the situation. This means that your mind is affected by negative energy and you are projecting that energy on other people. Learn from your past mistakes instead of blaming other people for them and this will help you achieve peace of mind.
9. You always see the bad in other people
We act accordingly to our environment and the people present around us. So if you always look for the worst in others and are quick to jump to conclusions, it means that you are surrounded by people who have negative energy and you are mirroring their actions. It might be your attitude that needs changing. So, don’t jump to conclusions and always check in with yourself.
How to break clear of your negative energy
The best way to break clear of your negative energy is by taking proper care of your physical and mental well being. The easiest way to do this is to be aware of your surroundings.
Taking a walk in the park and exercising regularly will make your body feel fresh and alive. Nature alone is the best cure for removing for negative thoughts and energy. Other than that, take good care of your diet and don’t overwork yourself.
Meditating and performing yoga regularly will make you feel calm and at peace. Your mind will feel fresh and it will help cleanse your mind off bad thoughts and negativity.
Taking a salt bath is one of the most effective methods for removing negative energy. Purity is has deep connection with water. Take this bath to purify your spiritual self from negativity. You’ll feel the difference yourself.
Positive and negative energies exist all around us and in different forms. A person should be well aware of their environment and should keep checking in with themselves. If you notice a sudden change in your behavior, it is best to cleanse yourself from the negative energy that is causing this behavior. Meditating and exercising regularly will decrease the chances of negative energy affecting your everyday life. Remain cautious of the people around you and don’t let your emotions get the best of you. Make time for yourself and your loved ones. Talk to someone whenever you're feeling low and be positive. That is the best way to remove negative energy and enjoy life.
