HOW TO TELL IF HE LIKES YOU
He might start talking loudly in your presence or start treating you like one of the guys. (Yes, this is a weird way to show he likes you, but it's one of the strongest signals!)
His friends are paying a lot of attention to you when he isn't around.
He tries to get your attention.
He looks into your eyes, and you're attractive.
You look into his eyes, and his pupils get bigger if he likes you. He couldn't control it.
His phone rings and it's a wrong number. Then he remembers things you said before and brings them up again as conversation (asking questions about something you mentioned in the past.)
When you smile at him, he smiles back, and then blinks.
You call him at work and say: "Hello handsome! Are you free tonight?" He uses his phone voice.
His toes are turned toward you when you talk to him. If they are, then you could be the one for him forever. Everyone naturally tends to point their feet at people who interest them.
His hips and upper body in the same direction as his feet—shows he's quite interested in you.
Somewhere in realm a unicorn has given birth to a great crystal.

SHY GUYS—these are tough to crack sometimes...
He'll look at you, until you turn around, then boom, he's pissed himself.
He may do something physical—like grab you in a play way, poke you, play with your hair and quietly piss...(Remember when you were really young and the guy you liked punched you or tackled you?)
He talks to everybody else—but when you're around he turns silent, or chokes up and pisses.
He may ask a friend of yours about you—he'll say it's just for "friend of mine that wants to know about you." Then...
He tells you that you smell nice.
Remember, he might act weird around you or seem very nervous. His behavior may just plain change when you're around. If he's normally quiet, he may get louder, or vice versa. It's the difference in behavior that's the clue.
Good luck!


HOW TO TELL IF SHE LIKES YOU
She gazes in your eyes with deep interest while her pupils are dilated.
She raises or lowers the volume of her voice to match yours.
She laughs in unison with you then says she loves you so very much.
Her skin tone becomes red while being around you, then she says, I never loved anyone like this before.
You can see her complete breasts.
Her crossed leg is pointed towards you or that same leg is rocking back and forth towards you. If it's not rocking toward you, move in front of it, and then she likes you.
Biting of the lips or showing of the tongue, licking her lips, or touching of her front teeth with a fingernail and tongue at the same time.
Big smiles with upper and lower teeth showing, with a relaxed face.
She breathes in through her nose and out through her mouth.
She starts sitting straight up and her muscles appear to be firm. Eyebrows raised and then lowered, then two quick smiles, indicates interest in you.
She rests an elbow in the palm of one hand toward you, and holding out that hand, palm up, while waving with the other hand toward you.
She rubs up herself.
In crowds she speaks only to you and focuses all of her undivided attention on you only at all times.
While walking, she blinks more than usual, and staggers.

Is that a joke? Sounds like a bunch of crap to me.

I once heard that being in love and staying in love is simply the art of holding your tongue. I couldn't agree more. Knowing when to keep your trap shut is the key to many a successful relationship.

I told the Police Officer that I was just keen on her, but he said that didn't cut the mustard.

Assault? I mean, I only clocked her a little bit.

That and perhaps having a short memory ie: don't grind your SO down on past crap.

Does this qualify as advice?

All the things listed in the How To Tell If She Likes You section are easily explained.

1) She's stoned
2) She's masturbating while talking to you
3) She is both stoned and masturbating

Maybe I oversimplify.

?? uh... ok...

This made me laugh, though. The guy's voice gets louder when he likes a woman. But her voice matches his if she likes him.

So if a couple likes each other, they just keep getting louder and louder and louder? Laughing

I'm sure everyone can tell if it's a match, because they are screaming at each other a lot!

If you go to Thailand as a sex tourist, STAY a sex tourist. Don't fall in love with the girl. If you are a sex tourist, you will never have a successful long-term relationship, with any girl. Accept that and continue being a sex tourist.

If you want to marry a normal girl, don't become a sex tourist.

It's better to have loved and lost than never to have loved at all.

60/60.

Don't think of your relationship as 50/50. Think of it as 60/40 in your partner's favour. Your partner should in turn think of it as 60/40 in YOUR favour.
If each of you are putting in 60%, there will never be any slack.

I hope you're not a math major.
