How do you know if a guy really likes you or is just using you?
He is reluctant to compromise
He's always busy, you don't really go on any real dates together, and he gets upset if you ask for anything. These are worrying signs. A person will always make time for you and put your needs first to make you happy if they truly care about you.
Another clear sign he likes you is if he is actively trying to hang out with you, or help you, or find out more about you. There are also indicators like eye contact or compliments, and showing that he's interested in your physical appearance, or who you are as a person.
If a guy is always ready with a hug, he frequently touches you on your arm or shoulder, or he looks for reasons he can by physically close to you, he might like you. However, he might just be a touchy person, so pay attention to whether he acts like that with other people.
This one is probably a no-brainer; when someone is attracted to you, they want to touch you. Touch releases the bonding hormone oxytocin. So, it is an instinctive way of trying to strengthen your connection. However, not all touches mean the same thing.
If he starts to speak to you in a softer, more intimate tone, it's a sign that he's starting to fall for you. This change in tone can be accompanied by other changes in his behavior, such as wanting to spend more time with you and being more protective of you.
If he wants to know more about you, it's likely that he's been thinking about you. He may also ask you questions or get your opinion about something to see what you think, which is another major clue that you're often on his mind. If he says, “I was wondering what you like to do for fun.
If a boy really has a crush on you, then he'll be likely to give you all of his attention. He'll turn his body toward you, make eye contact, and won't look around for his other friends or text them during your conversation (unless he uses his phone as a crutch because he's nervous).
This one is obvious. If he won't bring you around the people he cares about or he doesn't tell his family about you, he probably doesn't see a future with you. When he wants to hang out, he's always inviting you to big group activities instead of spending one-on-one time together.

How do you tell if a guy is slowly falling for you?
If your guy is going out of his way to do things for you, it's a clear sign that he has fallen for you. He'll go out of his way to make sure you're comfortable and happy, even if it means making a few sacrifices himself. He'll also go out of his way to spend time with you and get to know you better.
Not every guy is the same, but, typically, when he says he wants to take it slow, it “indicates a desire for the pace in which intimacy, connection, feelings, and commitments grow in a relationship to be one that feels comfortable," according to Thomas Edwards Jr., founder of The Professional Wingman.
The average time for men to fall in love is 88 days, while those same feelings of true love take women 134 days. Another dating site, Elite Singles, did a poll in 2017 and found that 61 per cent of women believe in love at first sight, while 72 per cent of men do.
In other cases, a man might just know right away. In fact, some men say they were sure after the first date or even after the first conversation. Ultimately, it all depends on the individual. Some men take longer to recognize their feelings, while others know immediately.
If you're wondering, “does he like me or not?” make sure to observe his actions. If he doesn't tell you he's attracted to you, you can tell by his body language and how his eyes move around. He might give you intense eye contact and look at your chest or check you out when you're across the room.
Guys flirt with girls they like. He might ask you for your number, then call you the next day. He may act playful, wink, and flash a smile at you. If most of your conversations feel flirty, then odds are that he likes you as more than just a friend.
