Does he like me back?

You have recently met a great guy. He is smart, funny, charming and oh-so-dreamy. But you are unsure of what he thinks of you. If you are wondering if there is a way to pick up his vibe, then read on. Here are some of the most subtle signs that he likes you too:

He seems a little nervous around you :

We may be the most confident beings, but we all tend to be a bit jittery around our crushes. Becoming a little self conscious can turn us nervous, and the same could be the case with him around you. If he is a confident person otherwise but gets sheepish in your company, then surely it is love playing games with him.

He is all smiles:

Another cute little sign of his liking is that he is smiling and laughing when you are around. According to relationship experts, passing warm smiles and genuine laughter is one of the ways a person tries to establish romantic relationships and intimacy with others.

Consistent communication :

If he is serious about you, he won’t delay communication, whether it's text conversation or a face to face chit chat. He is genuinely interested in you and what you have to say, and his demeanor and words express his interest. Thus traits also translate to social media, where he would constantly keep in touch, either by liking your posts and pictures or commenting on your posts and views. He wants to stay in your sight, both literally and figuratively.

He takes charge:

A little dominance can be a huge turn on for most women, and when he takes charge of the situation, it is a clear sign that he is definitely into you. From planning date nights to dinner menus, he makes sure everything is up to your liking, and that he is equally invested in your relationship, doing all the emotional heavy lifting with you.

He takes the lead with you:

While it is not always the man’s job to take the lead, when they do, it is extremely romantic. Him letting you know that he likes you, prefers you over others and plans everything around you is one of the greatest signs of his interest in you. Some men are less expressive than others, and they show their love through their actions and subtleties.
