11 Clear Signs Your Friend Has A Crush On You Even If They Are Hiding It

As much as we can read a good friend like a book, sometimes things get pretty unpredictable when love enters the equation. So, just what are the signs your friend has a crush on you?

Have you ever felt like a friend who was just a friend has more than just friends on their mind?

As hard as it can be to decipher the subtle and secret kind of love that exists when infatuation enters the picture, there are always a few clear and obvious signs that friends give away when they’re crushing on you.And all you have to do is just watch the way they behave around you, to notice these obvious signs!

# They can’t stop texting you!

A big sign that your friend is crushing on you is a sudden influx of texts from them. Have they started to text you multiple times throughout the day, for no real reason other than just to catch up?

Do you often wake up to a text from them, or do they text you to say goodnight? Do you often get texts from them when they are on a night out with their own friends?

If your friend can’t stop thinking about you or tries to get in touch with you even when they’re busy having fun, it’s a very good sign that you’re running circles on their mind!

# They seem to have discovered what styling products are for

One of the easiest signs to tell if your friend is crushing on you is if they have suddenly started to make a big effort with their appearance, especially if they only make that effort when they know you will be there.

Take a look at their Facebook feed or Instagram profile and find pictures taken when you were not around, have they made the same effort? If the answer is no, then that could be a pretty big clue to whether they are trying to impress you or not.

# They always have their eyes on you

Have you noticed your friend staring at you often? That could be one of the signs your friend has a crush on you. If you have, then this is a clear indication of a crush, unless you have food around your mouth, that is.

You might find as well that whenever you look at them, they drop their gaze on you and look elsewhere. This embarrassing look-away shows they have an interest in you in more than just a friendly way.

# They could stop traffic with their face

Have you noticed your friend blushing when you talk to them? Do they often go red-faced whenever they spend time with you or you are talked about?

If they do, then they obviously have a really big crush on you, why else would they be getting so bashful?

# They have suddenly become a world class comedian

Has your friend started to tease you a lot? Do they often make fun of you and point out silly mistakes that you have made, while at the same time, never hurting your feelings? This is the most common sign of attraction, and an even bigger sign that your friend may have a crush on you.

# They avoid you in public

Has your friend suddenly started to keep their distance from you, when you are out with friends? And when you are alone with them, do they behave in an overfriendly *and almost flirty* manner again?

This could be a sign that they don’t want their friends to be aware of the fact that they have a crush on you.

# They treat your love life like a celebrity magazine

Has your friend unexpectedly started to take an interest in your love life? Do they want to know everything that is going on, like whom you like and who likes you?

Do they ever show signs of being jealous when you talk about people you like? If they do, then you most definitely have a crush on your hands.

# They could win a game of don’t blink

Has your friend started to make more eye contact with you than usual? Do they listen intently to what you have to say, without dropping their gaze? That could be another one of the signs that your friend has a crush on you.

Do you find them trying to make eye contact with you when you’re across the room from each other? If the answer is yes to all of these, then the least this means is that they really like you.

# They have turned into your mirror

Have you noticed your friend mirroring your body language? A common sign of attraction is imitation, and people often mirror those they are attracted to, without even realizing they are doing it.

So if your friend has started to mirror your behavior or the words you use all of a sudden, then it could be that they are attracted to you.

# They like to introduce you to new things

When people have an attraction to another person, they often want to share details about their life with them. They want to share new things, in the hopes that the one they are attracted to, will pick them out above the rest.

So, if your friend has started sharing more about their life with you, then it could be an indicator that *worst case scenario* they want to be good friends, or way more!

# They like to surprise you

Does your friend like to surprise you with little treats? Do they often stop by your favorite pastry shop, to pick something up for you? Do they constantly recommend songs and books that you might like? Do they seem to go out of their way to please you?

If they do, then you know there must be a reason behind it, a.k.a. a friend crush!
