CRUSHES

When you have a crush on someone, every little thing they do impacts how you think and feel—it's simultaneously the worst and best thing ever. On top of that, it's difficult to dissect what *they* are thinking and feeling! Do they like you or not? Were they smiling at me or the girl next to me? Are they laughing at me or with me? To help ease some of your worries and dissect your crush's actions, read on.

If they...

...constantly glance over at you. Often when we look at people, we are looking at them because we find them attractive or are interested in talking to them. If you find making eye contact happens often between you and your crush, they just might be into you. 

...make excuses to see you. This means if your crush goes out of his way to invite you to things, or asks to hang out at school or outside of school for coffee, ice cream, etc. If a guy is interested in you, he will make an effort to be around you. 

...get teased by their friends when they see you two together. If one of your friends likes someone, you probably go out of your way to point them out quietly or be a great wing woman. Guys, on the other hand, are not good at being discreet. If you're chatting up your crush and his friends are making a big deal about it, that's a good sign that he's talked about you with them before. 

...reply to your texts quickly. If he takes the time to text you and text you quickly, it means he's invested in talking to you. 

...compliment you often. Compliments often make us feel warm and fuzzy, so if your crush doles 'em out often it means he is thinking about you and wants you to feel happy.
