How can you tell if a guy likes you? How does texting reveal his true intentions when it comes to you?
I bet all of you had at least one situation in your life when you wanted to send the perfect text but you didn’t know what to write.
You wanted to write something that wouldn’t leave the impression that you were easy or something that wouldn’t embarrass you.
Actually, the more you think about sending the perfect message, the chances of sending something stupid are higher.
Well, if you think that guys are different from you, you are wrong because they also have to wrap their mind around what to write to the girl they like.
And believe it or not, if you just pay a little bit of attention to the way he texts you, you can find out whether he likes you or not.
There are definitely telltale signs which will give away how he really feels about you.
How can you tell if a guy likes you?
He sends you good morning texts
Guys are simple creatures and they won’t have any problem admitting to you that they think of you.
If you want to know through texting if he likes you, just pay attention to what time he texts you.
If he sends you good morning texts, it is a sign that he likes you.
That means that you crossed his mind as soon as he woke up and that you are a special woman in his life.
He sends you goodnight texts
If he is the first one who texts you in the morning and the last one who texts you goodnight, it means that he feels something for you and he wants you to know it.
He doesn’t mind spending the whole night exchanging sweet texts with you because that is a good way to get to know each other.
Also, if he starts sending some flirty emojis somewhere down the road, it is a sign that he not only likes you but that he is crazy attracted to you!

He says he would like to be with you
If a guy texts you just to tell you that it would be great to be with you at that moment, you can bet that you are on his mind a lot.
He is probably daydreaming about you and he likes you so much that he wants to spend every free moment with you.
If he says that he would actually love to see you face-to-face and not just exchange texts with you, it is a sure-fire sign that he has strong feelings for you.
He asks you questions
If you want to know if a guy likes you through texts, just pay attention to what he writes.
Does he ask you any personal questions? Or is he contacting you just because he is bored?
If he wants to know more about you, it is a sign that he likes you and that he wants to be with you.
Guys never ask questions of girls they don’t like because that would mean wasting time. And that is something they surely don’t want to do.
He replies fast
One great way to find out if he likes you through texts is to see how fast he replies.
If he is online non-stop waiting for you to text him, it means that he is super into you and that he enjoys texting you.
Also, if he uses social media to send you some funny things, like jokes or funny videos, you can bet that he is hooked on you.
Now it is up to you whether you will give him a chance or you will just ignore him.

He sends you a text saying that something reminded him of you
If he texts you that a song or someone in the street reminded him of you, it means that he really likes you.
It is a sign that he wants to be with you and let you know that what he feels is not a problem for him.
It is really hard for men to express their emotions but if he does something like this, you can be positive that he likes you.
And he probably can’t wait to be face-to-face with you, to show you how much he is in love with you.
He compliments you through texts
If he compliments you on a daily basis through texts, it is a sure-fire sign that he is into you.
If he pays attention to how you act, how you dress and how you talk, and if he likes all that, he will surely compliment you.
He will try to send some cute love paragraphs so you would feel good after you read them.
The thing is that he wants to make you happy and he will find ways to do so.
He gives you sweet nicknames
If you want to know if a guy likes you through texting, just pay attention to what he calls you.
If he gives you some sweet nicknames when he sends messages to you, it means that he feels comfortable enough with you and that it makes him feel good when you two talk.
Maybe he even smiles when he calls you names like that and waits for your reaction, hoping you won’t mind it.
But if a guy made the effort to think of a cute name for you, he surely feels something more than friendship for you.
He texts throughout the whole day
If your guy texts you not only in the morning and evening but throughout the whole day, it is a sign that he really likes you.
He obviously can’t stop thinking of you so he wants to be in contact with you all the time.
That can be very sweet if you have time but if you are at work, I don’t think you will like him bombarding you with texts the whole day.
You are the first one to find out about any big news
If he texts you as soon as something big happens to him, you can be sure that he likes you more than just a friend.
He is obviously thinking about you more than you think and he considers you to be a special person in his life.
Just remember who you call or text first when something big and important happens to you and everything will be crystal clear.
He says he likes you
What better sign that a guy likes you than a confession?
If he sees that you are interested in him, he will feel a bit better and will have more strength to tell you that he likes you.
Even if you think this is a piece of cake for guys, they actually spend a lot of time thinking about how they will do it.
But once he gets up the courage he needs and says it out loud, you won’t have to wonder what his real feelings are.
He sends long texts
If a guy sends long texts, that is a sign that he is interested in you and that he likes you.
That only means that he wants to get to know you better and that by writing long texts and asking you questions, he will be able to do so.
So, whenever you see that he tells you about his day even if you didn’t ask him anything, you can be positive that he likes you and that he enjoys letting you know about the things that happen to him.
He talks about what you would be doing if he was there with you
He is making you imagine what it would be like if you were together at that moment.
If that isn’t flirting, I don’t know what is. He’s always mentioning ‘If I was there, we would…’ which understandably makes you think he would gladly be there by your side.
You see, he’s thinking about you and he truly wishes he was by your side. That’s a huge sign he is seriously into you.
He actually doesn’t want to text you, he wants something else…
Texting is the only option he has. He would rather be with you for real, he would rather feel you and touch you, but unfortunately, he cannot.
How can you tell this? Well, throughout your texting, he will drop clues that he wants to be with you rather than anywhere else.
When those sorts of things happen, you cannot miss them. You’re not imagining it, he is really hinting to you he wants to be with you rather than texting.
He talks about random things
When you notice he start talking about random things, there is only one reason why he’s doing that.
He is enjoying your presence, even if it’s an only a virtual one and he doesn’t want to stop communicating with you.
So, he initiates random conversations and sometimes the things he wants to talk about even appear silly.
But he’ll take a chance anyway, he’ll do anything to continue talking to you.
He asks about your day
You know how some people ask you how your day’s been and you start talking but they are not listening to you, or they are listening to you but are not at all interested in what you’re saying?
Well, he is not one of those people. When he asks you how your day’s been, he is genuinely interested in hearing what you’ve been up to.
He even asks more questions and he gives his opinions.
A man who is interested in your whereabouts and what you’re doing is a man who really cares about you.

You have inside jokes
It’s something only the two of you share and it wouldn’t be funny to anyone but you.
I know because this also happened to me. Sometimes I get so excited about a joke my texting crush sent me and I try to tell it to someone else.
In the end, I end up misunderstood and no one thinks the joke is funny.
And I, on the other hand, am on the floor laughing. Inside jokes are a sign of intimacy between two people.
Inside jokes serve to connect the two of you and make you share things that others don’t understand.
First, you start sharing inside jokes and then you start sharing other intimate things.
He won’t text you several texts in a row
Every guy wants to play it cool, especially with the girl he likes.
No guy wants to leave the impression of a needy and pushy person.
Those men never get the girl. So, he’s playing his cool game. He sends you only one text and then he waits for you to reply.
He probably looks like he is altogether but the truth is for as long as you don’t reply to his text, he is dying on the inside.
A dozen scenarios run through his head—o be more precise, negative scenarios.
A man who doesn’t look at you in a romantic way won’t be bothered with coming across as desperate.
On the contrary, he will probably send you multiple texts because he is worried about you—only as a friend.

He talks about his life
The catch is that he wants you to get to know him better.
Before he started talking about himself, he probably asked you every possible question about you and believe me, he remembered everything to the last detail.
Men who share details from their personal life have the serious intention of building intimacy with you.
They are preparing you and themselves for more intimate sharing. Only men who have feelings for you will do that.
He makes sure your plans are still on
Did you get the text: ‘Are we still on for tomorrow?’ If you did, then it’s a huge plus for you.
This means he really cares about you and that date he has with you is something he is thinking about.
It’s something he is excited about.
Maybe he’s even scared that you forgot or that you’re not coming, so he double-checks to see if you’re still in; in other words, if you’re still hot for him.
Next time you have doubts about whether a guy likes you or is just wasting your time, go through these 20 signs and you’ll know for sure what’s going on.
