The only thing worse than being stuck in the friend zone is not knowing how to get out of it. Even if you have a friend who knows this guy really well, you still might not know what he wants from you.
That’s why it’s important to be able to tell what a guy wants from you. This is not an easy task with so many mixed signals and different expectations.
It can be especially hard for girls with these guys because they are often told they should be feminine and submissive rather than assertive and independent. Eventually, girls end up looking for a relationship coach at least to know how to go about it.
However, there are ways for us to tell what guys want from you just by looking at their body language. These are the most common types of body language that signal how he feels about.
🚻 Learn the Signs On How To Tell What A Guy Wants From You

2. Read between the lines
Whether he flirts with you or not, it’s a good idea to be aware of how he feels by watching his body language. For example, if he is sitting there, not touching you, and doesn’t smile, chances are he’s not interested.
If he’s overly affectionate or excessively touches you and always tries to kiss you, he might be looking for more than just a casual date. He might be looking for you to be his girlfriend or wife. Subtle flirting can go a long way.
3. He finds ways to be with you
This is one of the most common reasons guys get into the friend zone and the most misunderstood. Guys are used to physical contact, but he may not even think about it.
For guys, physical contact means something else. Most men use the following move as the only reason to show a girl that he’s interested. Shake his hand. The second he enters a room, he usually extends his hand to shake yours.
If it’s cold outside, he’ll hold it for a bit. He pats your back or hugs you. If he hugs you, he’s showing that he’s more plans than you can see and wants to be more than friends.
Guys don’t often hug just anyone, but if he hugs you, he’s usually interested in more than just being friends. He’s also showing you that he has an emotional connection with you and cares for you.
4. Assess why and when he communicates with you
Sometimes when you can tell your man wants to communicate with you, it may not be actually doing so. If he is watching you and maybe sending text messages to another person, he might not be interested in communicating.
Otherwise, if he is around for support or to offer some company. Your guy is likely there because he likes you and doesn’t feel like he has anything else to do. This is a good time for you to put your game face on and spend that valuable time trying to know what he wants exactly.
5. You make him feel appreciated
Body language can make him feel that way as well. It shows that he wants to be around you and that he wants you to keep doing few things for him, to be available to him, and to put him first.
Also, body language can tell you that he is willing to be himself and give you what you want, so you have no need to put on an act or become invisible.
It shows that he respects your boundaries and listens to you. That’s how you know what he wants from you.
6. He does what you need
If you want to confirm a man’s love, simply, try to find out if he is doing what you need. He will make you feel important, and he will make sure you have what you need. If he likes you, he will be there for you, and he will always be for you until the last minute.
He will also make sure he communicates with you to avoid getting too confused about where you stand with him. How to Tell if He’s Interested In some cases, a guy will want to be a friend, just like the boy you dated some time back.
You may try so hard to be more than friends with him because he treats you so nicely, and you have a lot in common. But he maybe not have feelings for you.
If the guy wants you, he will accept your wish to go out on a date. If he doesn’t want to be in a relationship with you, he will turn down your request, and a few minutes after that, the narrative changes. Meaning he is not into what you want.
7. Does he look at me?
This one isn’t easy to read. Just because he looks at you doesn’t mean he likes you. You may think you are just having a friendly conversation, but his eyes are scanning you.
Either way, asking him directly to look at you won’t do you any good. Try looking back at him while you’re talking to see if he’s looking at you. If not, you can ask if he likes you.
8. He feels appreciated
His body language shows that he appreciates your attention. The smile, small pat on the arm or thigh, or compliment. He’s showing that he’s genuinely happy to see you and that he’s happy you’re there for a relationship.
This body language means he is really into you, and it means you are giving him a lot of attention. This kind of guy will enjoy your company and want to be with you as much as possible.
The same body language but in the opposite direction is a clear sign that he’s not into you.
If he doesn’t want to give you what you want, he will try to make you uncomfortable or not want to give it to you.
9. His body does the talking
When the right guy is interested in you, he will make sure to show his interest. He will slowly move closer to you, hold your hand, and even touch your arm trying to express his feelings for you.
He will subtly try to get you to touch him back. His body will often show his interest by moving toward you, and his hand will always be close to his waist or even behind his back.
10. Check his text history
All the details of your text history will let you know a lot about a guy. Did he say, “Hey beautiful” a lot, or is he the one who texts you first?
If he’s the type who likes to be subtle and sneaky, his texts will tell you a lot about his intentions. If he’s persistent and upfront, he’s definitely after a relationship.
It’s VERY hard to know how to handle a man’s perplexing and confusing actions. Especially when you REALLY CARE about him, and you’re ready for the relationship to move forward! The fact is: the way you handle phone calls and text messages can make or break your relationship! Learn how to deal with this. CHECK THIS OUT NOW!
11. He feels like a hero around you
This type of guy is usually really confident, and he often acts like a hero around you. If you’re his favorite or he’s your child’s coach, he’s probably a male chauvinist who feels expressly permitted to control everything. And if he’s confident around you, you should be too.
12. He talks about his plans with you and asks about yours
Is he is telling you about his major and future career plans, or does he only talk about dating and the future? If he is only thinking about dating, the chances are that you aren’t a priority in his plans.
Please don’t get hung up on the fact that he is only interested in dating you right now; focus more on his plans and how you fit into them because there is hope he’ll change.
It’s no fun to be dumped, but there are still some girls who would be dumped rather than hurt or rejected.
You need to know how to tell when a guy really likes you and will want to take things to the next level. That way, you can move on and have someone to share your life with.
13. He remembers the little things.
Have you ever noticed how those who remember the little things and show genuine interest always have a long-term relationship? And those who don’t tend to be single for a long time?
Guys who pay attention to the small details and make each date special usually end up with faithful and strong girlfriends and relationships.
14. He gets jealous when you talk to other guys.
You don’t want to play games with him. You don’t want to be in a relationship with a man who expects only you to give him everything or act like a child. But you also don’t want to be available to him only when he’s in a good mood.
This is why it’s important to pay attention for you to know whether or not he cares about your relationship. It’s probably one of the biggest signs that he does care about your relationship.
When he gets jealous of other guys talking to you, then he probably cares about you. If he can’t stand the thought of you talking to other guys, then he probably doesn’t want a relationship with you. But not all guys are like this.
You don’t have to go around making him jealous and sending mixed messages by talking to other guys. All you have to do is be yourself, be respectful, and at the same time spend time with him.
15. Listen to his gut feelings.
If he says he wants to have sex with you or touch you, but it doesn’t feel right, he might not be ready. Maybe he is just testing the waters and trying to see how you react.
This is a good time for you to say, “Sorry, I’m not into this.” But this isn’t an excuse to start going around with your feelings on a whim.
16. You are a priority in his life.
His body language tells you that he is always thinking about you, which is important to him. It shows that you are the most important person in his own life and he is willing to spend time with you.
Also, he makes it clear that he feels as if he has the right to ask you for anything, like time with you or for you to go out with him. He also smiles with his eyes and laughs.
17. He is not expecting you to cater to him.
Your body language and actions speak louder than words especially when you’re together. When you are together, he may say that you are equals, meaning you both are in for it. The two of you should look as if you are one unit, not that one of you is doing all the work while the other takes care of the sex part.
18. He’s fascinated with you.
This is the “I can’t believe I’m actually dating a girl” type of infatuation. He will constantly find reasons to kiss, have sex with you and even talk to you.
He will even do crazy and same things like asking you to hold his hand. He’s just having a really good time with you. It’s a good sign for him.
19. He opens doors for you.
As for most women, for instance, there’s something that shows him to be considerate of you when he holds the door open for you. If he has to wait for you to go to the bathroom, he’s likely to open the door for you which is a great sign that he cares.
20. His eyes are on your Body language tells you a lot about what a guy is thinking.
His eyes often scan you from head to toe. If he keeps looking at you while talking, it could be a sign that he thinks you are attractive, and he wants to keep looking at you.
If he doesn’t look at you while talking, it could be a sign that he isn’t attracted to you.
Most of the time, if a guy is on a date with you, it means there are strings attached and he’ll talk about taking things further. At this point, you should avoid begging for small talk asking them to “lock” you on social media.
It is perfectly fine to have small talk and ask a guy what they are up to on social media, but it is usually reserved for when they are really interested in you.
If you ask him to “lock” you on social media and they still seem indifferent, they are probably not interested in a long-term relationship.
22. He gives you all his attention.
It’s normal for guys to check out girls when they’re not around them. In a normal, non-dating relationship, it’s normal for guys to ask you to “take a picture” with their friends or show you a cool thing.
But if he’s getting attention from you when he’s nothing to do you, it could be a great sign he just needs a casual relationship.
23. He can’t stop asking questions about you.
There’s a good chance that the guy you’re with can’t stop talking about you. When someone is really into you, they are genuinely curious about your everyday life. When a guy wants you to know more about him, he will ask you questions and talk about himself.
Although you might not like it, there’s nothing wrong with having a conversation with this guy. If you like him, you can even tell him how you feel about past conversations and previous points.
But remember, you don’t need to be a mind reader to know how he feels about you. Sometimes, being asked many questions is just a sign that this guy likes you a lot.
24. He respects boundaries.
This means he respects your space and understands when you need to get away from a conversation. If you’re not interested in hanging out with him anymore, he respects that and asks you to hang out with him once in a while just for fun.
If he doesn’t respect your space, then he doesn’t respect you. No matter how much you like the guy, you don’t want to be with someone who doesn’t respect your boundaries.
25. He wants to be a part of your life.
He’s no longer trying to push you away; you can tell that he has accepted that you’re into him, and his time is now for you. He’s happy you’ve been there for him and has no issue with that.
He’s letting go of the part of you that he had been holding on to have an emotionally healthy relationship with you.
26. He’s open to doing things with you.
He will ask you about your job and your favorite color. He will try to make plans for fun activities. He won’t try to talk about boring things like the weather. This shows him that you are interesting
27. He hardly ever calls or texts you.
It’s easy to get sucked into the idea that he really likes you, especially if you’ve been together for a long time. If he’s getting flirty with other girls and never calls or texts you, it might be because he’s trying to hide the fact that he’s only interested in one thing — other girls and not you.
28. He’s always coming up with excuses.
This guy might be the type to make you dinner and then never call you the next day.
