A Man Is Serious About You If...

1. He keeps a picture of you in his wallet.
2. He knows the little details about you- your favorite food, outfit, hobby, etc.
3. He memorizes details such as your cellphone number, student or employee ID, birthday, etc.
4. You are at the top of his priority list.
5. He's always present even when you don't require him to.
6. He gives you a small gifts such as book, a bracelet, or even his bull cap.


Love is an action word, so it must be felt rather than said. Although hearing that word gives you security and assurance, a guy may not directly say "I love you" because he may be uncomfortable saying it or he's just waiting for you to say the word first. So if you're ready, just go ahead and say it.

If you tell him that you love him, don't expect him to echo the same words. "I love you" is a statement that you tell someone willingly and honestly. If you don't get a reply, it doesn't mean you're being rejected. What's important is that you feel his love. Remember: actions speak louder than words.

A guy likes you if...

1. He punches you on the arm or touches you "accidentally" in a non-sexual way.
These are sure signs that he's attracted to you. But be careful that he does not go overboard with his flirting. If he makes any unwelcome advances, tell him that you don't appreciate it ( but don't reject or offend him in public).

2. He asks your friends if you're still single.
Men won't be inquiring about your civil status or love life if they have no interest in you. By asking indirectly, they can immediately know where they stand out but without the risk of being rejected outright.

3. He cracks jokes.
Guys tell jokes to make you feel at ease. They want to show that they're enjoyable to be with, and that they a healthy attitude toward life. Somebody once said that a woman falls in love with a man who makes her laugh. Perhaps men know that, which is why they try to come up with the most original and effective ways to show their sense of humor.

4. He keeps looking at you.
If a guy keeps staring at you even after you've glanced at him and asked "what?", then he's trying to send you a signal. He's strongly attracted to you. If the feeling is mutual, send him a signal, too!

5. He notices your outfit, hair, and other things.
A man likes you very much if he notices even the smallest detail about you, perhaps your hair, shoes, handwriting, etc. Guys don't particularly pay attention to details, but if he compliments the little things about you, then he's flattering you to show that he's interested.

6. He gives you sweet things.
If he buys you chocolate, doughnuts, or anything sweet, he is displaying his thoughtfulness. And he wants you to be sweet with him also. Someone who gives you things obviously cares about you.

7. He offers help.
Let's say you're having difficulty with your research project in communication theory. A man who cares for you would assist you even if it means going to a far library to look for an old and dusty book. Helping you with your studies is also his ways of spending time with you and getting to know you more.

8. He asks you for a dance.
At a party, girls usually wait for their dream boy to approach them. If your crush finally musters the confidence to ask for a dance, then you'll be stupid to turn down the offer. This is a sure sign of interest in his part because no young man would want to be seen dancing with a lady he doesn't like.

9. He loiters where you are.
If you always see someone in the places that you go to, it may simply be coincidence. But if it has happened many times, then chances are you have an admirer who's probably waiting for a chance to talk to you.

10. He discourages you of your present boyfriend.
This guy is jealous. He may be criticizing your boyfriend because he wants to replace him in your life. Just be careful that his (or your) actions do not result in a fight. Even if you enjoy the attention of two men, you don't want to be in the middle of a boxing match!
