LoginWondering how to tell if someone likes you? You're not alone. Figuring out whether someone is interested in you has inspired endless movies, novels and, let's be honest, daily Whatsapp chats between friends. Online dating offers us the opportunity to take advantage of algorithms that show us people that fit our vision of the 'perfect match', but these apps can also be a minefield of misinterpretation and a source of anxiety for many. Is this person genuinely interested? Is it just a crush? Is there sexual tension?

If you've ever crushed hard on a new love interest, you may have felt the urge to analyze their every action and decipher their words for hidden meaning as you try to figure out if they like you back just as much. But everyone shows their romantic interest in different ways. Some prefer to be forthright about their budding feelings, but others can feel too anxious to say how they feel, primarily using their actions to express interest instead, according to therapist Alfonso Ferguson. He said that you shouldn't read into interactions with your new partner too much. However, if you're still feeling uncertain — because you haven't felt this way before, or have major brainworms from "red flag" relationship TikTok videos — Ferguson said there are a few signs you can look out for. But if you notice this person consistently does these things, it means your relationship is mutual, he said.
Relationships are hard work. How much should you be willing to sacrifice for the other person? And what about if you argue quite a lot?
