Shy guys don't like to challenge people at the best of times, but this can also be a sign they like you. He doesn't want to say or do anything that you might find confrontational. He wants your favorite shows to be his favorite shows. He wants to share the same opinions as you.
How can you tell if someone likes you but doesn't show it?
Notice if they look for attention.
Someone who likes you may do something to have you notice them. Watch if they talk louder when you're nearby, or starts laughing with their friends when you're around. They may not talk to you on a social website, but they'll "like" a bunch of things you do online.
A man trying to impress his crush is one of the most common signs a shy guy likes you. He may try to change his style and appearance to attract your attention. If you find him wearing new glasses, a new shirt, or a new hairstyle, he is definitely trying to make a move!
People tend to naturally lean toward people they like in conversation, according to Battle. If the guy you like tends to lean his face in closer to yours while he's talking to you or listening to you talk, that's a good sign that he might be into you.
You can often see such differences between introverts and extroverts too. People who like you lean towards you and engage in conversation. Meanwhile, not looking you in the eyes, leaning away from you, and crossing their arms or legs or both are signs that they don't like you.
Patience is key when flirting with a shy girl. Stay in her comfort zone by being friendly, asking her questions about herself and sharing details about yourself, and showing just enough interest in her that she doesn't shy away from you.
Being an introvert can be extremely attractive to some people. Introversion can seem mysterious and intriguing, especially if it pairs with qualities such as kindness or being a caring person. If you are an introvert, someone may be attracted to the fact that you appear humble and down to earth.
Like touch, eye contact triggers the release of oxytocin. When someone is attracted to you, they subconsciously will try engaging in lots of mutual eye contact. They do this to feel closer to you, and because they are interested in you and what you are saying.
If you're only talking to them for attention, Wood says you might notice the following red flags: You feel anxious without their time or attention. You're emotionally unavailable, and you keep your guard up. You don't know much about them beyond the surface (and you don't care to).
The closer he wants to be to you, the more he probably likes you. This body language is a minute way that guys go for physical contact. People who are just being nice don't want to get closer and closer to another person. Instead, they'll keep a safe distance and might lean away if you try to touch them.
They speak less and listen more, which gets people interested in them. What makes introverts attractive is their ability to observe beyond the words people speak. They pay close attention to details and are extremely prudent. Introverts are also genuinely concerned about others, which shows their empathic natures.
