8 Possible Signs Your Crush Does Not Like You

When you’re young, having a crush can really cause you to suffer. The crush might even last for years. It could even be that your crush teases you and leads you on. But if you know the signs your crush doesn’t like you, then you can move on faster.

But, the point is, crushes can be painful. You spend a lot of your time fantasizing about them. Dreaming of the day when they’ll “wake up” and tell you that you’re the one.

Do crushes usually work out? Sometimes, but sometimes no. And to be honest, maybe it’s for the best if they don’t. A relationship can’t work when you put someone else on a pedestal.

# You feel it

Yes, you’ve been trying to ignore it, but when it comes to instinct, you should listen to it. If something inside of you is saying that they don’t like you, listen to it. Especially, if all these signs match as well.

You know when someone likes you and when someone doesn’t. Of course, no one wants to accept the bitter truth, but you know it.

# They don’t try to talk to you

Some people are shy, but usually, if someone doesn’t try to make contact with you, they don’t like you.

If you’re always the one trying to talk with them, and they give you minimal attention, well, they’re not into you. If they were, they’d chase you as well.

# They don’t touch you

Physical touch is a huge indicator of whether someone likes you or not. Think about it, when you like someone, you try to touch them.

When you laugh, you touch their arm because you’re subconsciously trying to bond with them. If you don’t like someone, you’re not touching them with a 10-foot pole. See the difference?

# They’re always busy

You’ve asked them to hang out a couple of times, but they always seem busy. If someone likes you, they’ll make time to see you no matter how busy they are. But if they’re so busy they can’t spend one hour of their day with you, they probably don’t like you.

# They don’t listen to you when you talk

When you’re talking to them, you can see their eyes glaze over and their mind wander. This isn’t a sign of someone interested in you.

If someone likes you, they’ll be focused on every word you say. Instead, they’re struggling when it comes to focusing on you.

# They are seeing other people

If someone you have a crush on is dating other people, well, that’s a pretty good sign they’re not interested in you. Of course, they could like you while dating someone else, but if it’s paired with these other signs, then that’s probably not the case.

# They’re not jealous

If you’re talking to someone else or dating a new person, they’re not jealous. They actually do not react to your love life. And that’s not a good sign. When someone likes you, they get jealous of seeing you around other people or finding out you’re in a relationship.

# They call you a “friend”

Ah yes, the word that could slice. In any other circumstance, you’d be flattered to be called a friend, but in this case, no.

If they introduce you to other people as a friend or tell you that “you’re such a good friend,” well, you’re a friend. Nothing more.
