You have a burning desire for a person but you are uncertain that he feels the same way. As no one enjoys mind games played on him or her, you deserve to know how a guy honestly thinks of you. Find out if the one you like is interested or just playing along and too afraid to turn you down.

Difficulty: Moderately Easy
Instructions
  1. Step 1

    Keeping you at a distance is one important sign that shows that he is not into you. Phone calls go unanswered, he does not call back until a day, or two later or hardly shows any sign of physical interaction. Flirting or conversation ends quickly on his part when you two are together, can reveal that the spark is not there.

  2. Step 2

    Make excuses every time you want to hang out. Staying occupied with other 'important' matters and making you last on his list is another way of brushing you off. In addition, a date cancelled at the last minute is not a good sign of someone that enjoys your company.

  3. Step 3

    Bring his friends along the majority of the time when you want one-on-one time with him is another way of telling he really does not want to get to know you at a certain level. This is true when dates is centered around what he and his friends enjoy doing the most and just tagging you along to different places.

  4. Step 4

    Less eye contact with you while talking. Guys who are smitten by a girl absolutely love to look a girl in the eyes as it had his way of saying that he really likes her. However if his eyes shifts everywhere around and hardly on you, you are not getting his full attention. Gestures say everything about a person and if you are getting a negative reaction, his interests in you is hardly there.

  5. Step 5

    Talks about other women a lot whenever he is around you. This can be painful to hear especially when you are attracted to a guy and all he talks about is other females, how attractive they are or if he has a crush on one. While it may seem perfectly normal to have crushes and find another person good-looking, it can be a blow to the heart if he never compliments you or says the same things as he does about other women.

Tips & Warnings
  • If your heart is warning you that a guy is not showing interests, listen to it.
  • Any guy that act disinterested towards you should get the cold shoulder too.
  • Bluntly ask him if he likes you if you want to stop the head games.
  • Do not continue to pursue a person not attracted to you or else it leaves you with a broken heart.

on 6/20/2009 Everything you point out here is true if you want to know how to tell if a guy isn't interested in you. Here's another thought: One of the best ways to find out if a guy really LIKES you is to act a bit indifferent yourself - in the beginning, at least! Remember; "He (or she) who (seems to) care least wins." - It's true. 5*****
