💟 Learn these 20 techniques on how to tell if a guy is flirting or just being friendly 💟

If you want to figure out whether he is flirting or just being friendly, here are the top 20 techniques to get the answer.

1. Maintain eye contact

Friendly:

A guy would look into your eyes while talking in a normal way just like others do. He would not stick his eyes on you and make eye contact in a naturally friendly way.

A friendly guy won’t attempt to lock his eyes on you while talking but may look at the surroundings occasionally.

Flirty:

A flirty guy would make constant eye contact with you throughout the conversation. Even if you are not talking, he would still make eye contact with you multiple times.

In fact, he would want to go deep into your eyes to see how do you feel about him. By strong eye contact, he would also try to give you a love signal but that would be flirt in actuality.

2. How he makes small conversation

Friendly:

A friendly guy makes small conversations just like a normal person. His conversations would be targeted on so many things instead of only focusing on you. While engaging in small conversations, he would never go deep inside your matters.

Flirty:

A flirty guy would mostly make small conversations about dating life or sex life. For example, if he makes a small conversation about how was your day, he would seem as romantically interested in knowing about your day.

3. Sexual contact

Friendly:

A best friend is never interested in making sexual contact with you and he never thinks about it. A friendly guy would respect you more and always take care of you.

Even if you are alone with him in a room at some odd place, he would never take advantage of the situation to sexually engage with you.

Flirty:

A guy must be flirting with you if he tries to engage to make a flirty touch for sexual contact with you. If you are alone in a room with him, he would for sure try to provoke you for sex.

Even if he doesn’t do it in the first meeting, he may take advantage of the situation at any time in the future. You must learn to figure out the real intentions of such men and stay away from them.

4. What does he say about himself

Friendly:

A very important technique to interpret a man is to pay close attention to what he talks about himself. When a guy is only being friendly, he won’t show his utmost interest in sex-related things.

Instead, a friendly guy would tell you about his day, his hobbies, his interests, and his goals. He would talk about several things about himself and his life instead of solely focusing on sex.

Flirty:

If he is more than just friends to you, make sure that he is sincere with you and not flirting at all. However, he would be flirting if he never talked about other things but only a love talk with you.

When a guy seems more interested in sex and such discussions, he would keep on telling you things like that. Moreover, he would also tell you frequently about his past sex life, about his ex-girlfriends, and related stuff.

5. His way of greeting you

Friendly:

Look at the way how he greets you. Most guys ordinarily greet the women just like they greet other guys. You would notice that they talk regularly and ordinarily without any romantic interest.

For example, a man can simply say good morning with a smile when he sees you coming into the office. He must also be doing the same with other human beings working in his office.

Flirty:

A clear sign that he is not sincere with you is that he behaves a little awkwardly in front of you. For example, he may stand up and try to hug you while saying good morning but he doesn’t do the same with others. You can easily get to know about his flirty nature by noticing such things.

6. The way to touch

Friendly:

A very good sign to observe his psyche is to see if he attempts to engage in any physical contact with you. When he is just being friendly, he won’t have any lust for your body and he won’t try to touch you for any concern. Instead, he would simply have no interest in physical contact just like your other mutual friends.

Flirty:

On the contrary, a guy would be flirting with you when he frequently tries to make physical contact. When guys flirt with women, they express more interest in making physical contact instead of expressing interest in something else.

For example, he would be so concerned about how was your day or how is your family but he would be more clingy to touch.

7. He starts fixing his dress

Friendly:

A nice and friendly guy would not be so conscious about how he looks. Whenever he sees you coming closer to him, he won’t immediately start fixing his color or buttoning up his shirt. Instead, he would keep sitting in the same way as he was before you arrived at the spot.

Flirty:

If he starts to fix his dress in front of you or when sees you coming closer, it is a clear indication that he is flirting with you.

Whenever he sees you, you will notice him instantly getting conscious about how he looks. He would immediately fix his shirt, pants, shoes, etc. to impose a good impression on you or to impress you.

8. Fixing his hair

Friendly:

Most people believe that fixing hair is natural and doesn’t belong to anything else. The truth is that many people start fixing their hair to look good so that they can impress others.

When a guy is just being friendly, he won’t always care about what his hair looks like. He may fix his hair at times but not to grab your attention.

Flirty:

Another sign of a person flirting with you is that he would always try to get your undivided attention by representing an ideal image of himself. To impress you, he won’t only fix his clothes immediately but also keep on touching or setting his hair to ensure that he looks attractive.

9. Excessive self-talk

Friendly:

Excessive self-talk is a clear indication that he is only trying to persuade your feelings about him positively. A friendly person would not always engage in self-talk but must discuss other things with you.

For example, he would ask you about yourself, and your job, discuss current affairs, or may also talk about the latest trends and fashion.

Flirty:

In contrast, you would see that a man who is flirting with you will frequently engage in self-talk. He would always talk about his likes and dislikes, his point of view, his interests, and his personality. He would frequently lie in this self-talk to represent an ideal self-image to you.

10. The way to stare and body language

Friendly:

There is an obvious difference in the way to stare at a woman and the body language of a man. When a man is just friendly, he would never keep on staring at you frequently. At the same time, the body language of a friendly guy would never give you a flirting signal but he would behave sophisticatedly and would assure good manners.

Flirty:

He is a big flirt if he keeps on staring at you badly all the time and has poor body language. For example, he may open up his legs in front of you to ensure that you notice him and get provoked. Similarly, he stares at you frequently to get a response from you and starts flirting in this way.

11. His way of talking about other girls

Friendly:

Another technique is to see how he talks about other girls. A man who is just being friendly won’t disrespect other girls in front of you. His jokes and way of talking about other girls won’t include a sex-related discussion. However, a friend would simply talk about numerous things if he ever talked about other girls.

Flirty:

The main difference comes here when a guy talks about sexual things about other girls. For example, he may make fun of a girl with poor body structures or may seem inspired by the large boobs of a girl. Similarly, he may also talk disrespectfully and unethically about other girls when he is not sincere with you too.

12. Presenting his real self versus fake

Friendly:

A friendly man doesn’t need to represent his fake self in front of you. A nice guy would be the same person that he is or that he seems to be. You would find no difference in his obvious and hidden personalities. You would also realize that there is not a single element of showing off in his behavior or attitude to attract you.

Flirty:

No matter how real he tries to be, you would still notice lots of contradictions in his real versus fake self-image. He won’t be the same person in front of you that he is when he is lonely or with other people.

13. He won’t be so clingy

Friendly:

A friend can never be so clingy to you all the time. He would allow you the freedom you need to do whatever you want to do. He would keep a distance at times to avoid being so clingy in your personal matters. He may interfere but not much into your personal life. Such a guy would be your friend and not faking you at all.

Flirty:

On the contrary, a guy is flirting with you if he is very clingy all the time. He would always be curious to know your things and always interfere with whatever you do. He would never leave you alone even for a second and be with you all the time.

14. He won’t force you to date or movie night

Friendly:

The best friends should indeed enjoy movie nights together but the other person should not force you for a movie night or a date. A smart friend who is not flirting with you would never force you to go with him on a date.

He may force you for a movie night when yours and his friends are going together. However, it won’t happen always when he is forcing you to go with him alone.

Flirty:

A guy is a flirt when he forces you to join him on a movie night or go on a date. To inspire you, he may surprise you with special arrangements for a date night and may try to provoke feelings of love in you.

During a movie night, he may also try to touch you and start a romantic conversation. These are the hints that he is only flirting with you and doesn’t have any plans to go in the long run with you.

15. Less vs. more fights or offensive talks

Friendly:

A guy is a friendly person if he is paying attention to what you want to say instead of starting a fight without understanding your viewpoint. A friend won’t make offensive talks on casual questions or serious topics of discussion. His general demeanor won’t include a fighting and abusive personality but he would be a cool and more open-minded person.

Flirty:

In contrast, a guy would start bashing you on little things and would be unable to control his energy levels when he dislikes something. He would get offended frequently and you would see him feeling angry about numerous things. He would also try to impose his viewpoints on you and would expect you to do what he wants you to do.

16. Respect vs disrespect

Friendly:

One way that is a clear hint if he is only flirting or being friendly is to see if he respects you or not. If he is being friendly with you, he will not only be naturally affectionate to you but also respect you so much. He would never intentionally disrespect you whether you are alone with him or in a public place.

Flirty:

On the other hand, a flirting guy would disrespect you quite frequently. Even you would notice him disrespecting you in a public place if he doesn’t like something. Instead of taking care of your will and preferences, he would start being abusive and harsh.

17. Sex talks

Friendly:

When he is only being friendly, he would never engage in sex talks with you. Even many of his jokes won’t include such topics and he won’t have any such intention too. Instead, he would communicate about other things in general. Even if he is having fun with you, his jokes won’t target sex talks or any such things.

Flirty:

A guy is for sure a flirt when all of these talks revolve around sex. He would talk about intercourse, nudity, romantic relationships, love life, cheating, and so many related things. When you see frequent sex talks in a relationship, it means that he is only being flirty with you.

18. Level of attention

Friendly:

He is just being friendly if he pays attention to you during conversations or during doing something important with you. However, he won’t be so attentive to you without any concern and you won’t catch him looking at you without any purpose.

Flirty:

The level of attention differs when a guy is flirting with you. He would be more attentive when you are around and he would pay deep attention to whatever you do. His eyes would always follow you and he would strictly monitor you all the time. In some cases, this highest level of attention becomes so annoying that it worsens the relationships instead of doing any good.

19. Personal space

Friendly:

He is friendly if he joins you in your free time but doesn’t bother you when you are busy with something personal. He won’t also try to inquire you about your personal life or personal matters. He also won’t bother you whatever you do and why you do it when it comes to your personal space.

Flirty:

In contrast, a guy must invade your personal space and ruin your privacy. He would always try to be with you like your shade and always inquire about your things/space. He would also seem bothered by numerous things that you do and sometimes, he may get offended by some of them.

20. Teasing

Friendly:

All friends tease each other without any wrong intentions but mostly just for fun. You man is friendly if he teases you to bring a smile to your face or to have fun that doesn’t hurt you in any way. This type of teasing makes a relationship more beautiful and charming where two-person enjoy each other’s company without any stress or fear.

Flirty:

On the other hand, a guy teases you in another way when he is flirting with you. This type of teasing is different from the other ones because it may make you feel hurt and annoyed at times.

He may personally bash you or touch you in any way to tease you so that you give a response or make a reaction. This type of teasing is sometimes intolerable and irritable and you just want to avoid that person. At times, you won’t feel comfortable with that guy because they ruin your comfort zone due to his teasing and flirting nature.

💥 Surprising signs that someone is flirting with you 💥

If someone is flirting with you, you can easily find out his real intentions by noticing the following signs in him.

🔅 He would do exactly what men do while flirting

All of us know what men do while flirting with women. Their love seems so fake and they lose their temper so shortly because all they want from a woman is to fulfill their lust.

If you have such a man, make a small conversation with him on a contradictory issue, other than love. If he seems interested and discusses it further with you while respecting your point of view, it means that he is not flirting with you.

Otherwise, if he is only interested in sex talks, it means that he is flirting with you just like he does with his other crushes.

🔅 He would be more interested in sex

Those guys who flirt are more interested in sex than building a productive relationship with you. He would also be one of those guys who wants only sex from you if he is flirting with you.

To interpret his real interests, spend a little time with him. You will get clear signs regarding whether he is only interested in sex or not.

🔅 Physical touch

Along with sex, some guys also love to physically touch their women when they are flirting with them. When a guy is serious about a relationship with you, physically touching you won’t be his top priority because he would know that he has the whole life to do it with you.

In contrast, a flirting guy would know that this relationship won’t be long-lasting and he has a limited time, so he would try to take the most advantage of it. He may hold your hands, hug or kiss you frequently, or pat on your back, etc. to fulfill his lust.

🔅 He won’t spend much on you

In the same way, he won’t spend much money on you because he knows that he will leave you soon. All he wants would be to touch or have sex with you or pass his time with you.

When you are fulfilling all of these concerns, why would he spend so much on you? If a guy truly loves you, he would unconditionally spend his money on you without giving it a second thought.

🔅 He won’t care or respect you at times

When a guy is not really interested in you but only flirting, he won’t have much tolerance towards you. You would see that he doesn’t care at times and might be disrespecting you occasionally.

For example, suppose that both of you have to go on a date and he is coming to pick you up. When he arrives, you refuse to go and tell him that you are feeling very sick today. If he understands and asks you to go to the doctor with him or prepares a meal for you, he truly loves you.

In contrast, if a guy starts fighting you for why you ruined the dating plan instead of showing any concern for your bad health, he is only flirting with you.
