Love will be around a few months from now. A crush probably won't.

If you fall in love with someone, you know when your heart pounds when they enter they room. They make you feel jitterey inside. If all of this is true, you really are into true love. I've had experiences when they don't love you back. Be patient.\n\nIf you can't wait to find out, ask them. Think about it. The worst thing they can say is no. After, ask them if you and he can still be friends.\n\nIf someone else loves you, and you don't love them, the oldest thing to say is tell them that you're sorry but you don't love them back, and can you still be friends. Maybe your crush will turn out to be a jerk and you'll always have this guy to give another chance. It could be the perfect romance.

If he definitely knows, just smile when you see him, be pleasant around him, and if he is into you he will make a move. Good luck!

It is a very common question, "How can I tell I'm in love?", but it is not an easy question to answer. What feels like love to one person may be nothing more than attraction to another. Some people fall in and out of love quickly and often while others are never really in love as much as they are in lust. Do you wonder what is going on in your current relationship. Is it love, lust or bust? Take our quick and easy quiz to find out. \n\n\nhttp://teenadvice.about.com/library/teen...

Hmmm.\n\nThe old answer of, you'll know when you are, applies. But, think of it this way...\n\nYou will realize when you are in love, when you are NOT spending time with that person. When you are apart, you think about them, and what you think about is how you know you are in love.\n\nIf your thoughts are purely physical when you are apart, you are in lust, not love.\n\nIf, on the otherhand, your thoughts turn to things like... what is she doing right this moment? What could I do that would bring a smile to her face? I wonder if she is having a good day? I wonder if she is thinking about me? \n\nThings like that, will start you on your way to realizing you are in love.\n\nEdited:\n\nI tried to reply to your email, but since your email isn't verified, it wouldn't send it. Your email asked me, "how do you know if she likes you..."\n\nOkay, you never said anything about you not knowing her. Look, if you don't even know her, then you are NOT in love with her. You might be feeling lust, or a crush, or something else, but it isn't love. How to know if she likes you? Go talk to her! Be sincere, be yourself, don't try to impress her. If she responds to you, then ask her out. After that, if you don't know, then ASK her if she likes you.

Hmm, the most pratical method, would probably to ask gently to the person herself? No hurt of trying, you'll never know if she'd probably have a crush on you in return. However, if it turn-out the other way arround, than you should consider another hunting method. Good Luck.

It's not that easy to tell since it varies from guy to guy, but generally if he's the cool, confident type, he'll be the one to tell u eventually. But if not then, u should be able to tell by the little things he does around you. (nervousness etc.) or how he'd make excuses just to spend some time w/ u (e.g. offer to carry your books, or walk u to ur classes etc.) But the surest way to know would definitely be in his eyes, just the simple way he looks at you, or how he turns away when you try and look at him. (usually when ur crushing heavily on somebody it's really hard to look them in the eye) But hey, even if this dsnt wrk, relax. Let him make the first move, enjoy life! No use worrying abt it. If he likes you, then he'll definitely make a move.

Chances are that if you talk for a few hours everyday, he likes you too, and he may be afraid to say it.  The only way to find out if he loves you is to tell him that you love him.    You always take a chance at being hurt when you tell someone how you feel.  But, if you don't tell someone how you feel, you take a chance at losing them.

When you like someone, you just know. You get this strange feeling in your gut and you can't seem to make it go away. You think about this person every second when you are not with them and when you are, you can't help looking at them. Reach into your heart. Do you think that you like them. Do you see yourself with them in the future. I think there is really no way to help you with this one, you just have to spend more time with them and listen to your heart.

when you start getting a feeling where in you hear his name and butterfly runs in your stomach, when you see him and you just wanna see him, when he talks u just wanna listen to him, when he touches you, u let your body as if it was his, when he smiles it really brings happiness to you, you can feel his body scent around you when you imagine about him, when he is with you, you really forget the world and you two together start creating your own world together.. that's when you say that you are in love. :)\n\nHenry :)

just look into his eyes for 3 minutes continuously. if he also looks into your eyes u will understand it by urself if he is falling in love or not.

One of the tried and tested problems through relationship history has been finding out whether that girl or guy you have pined over for years really likes you or not. \nShould you pluck up the courage and just ask them out, or is it alright to ask their mates if they like you? This may seem easier, but in fact, in the long run it is not the best way to find out if they have a crush on you!\nIts very simple really, if u fancy them, which hints do u give? looking at them and then looking away? especially the treat um man keepum keen thing. if a boy is rrely being niceto you and you are nice to him and he suddenly turns nasty its not that he doesnt like you its just the rules thing. heis trying to hint!!!

You know you're in love when:\n\n13. When your on the phone with them late at night and they hang up but you miss them already when it was just five minutes ago... \n\n12. You read their texts or notes over and over again... \n\n11. You walk really slow when you're with them... \n\n10. You feel shy whenever you're with them... \n\n9. When you think about them, your heart beats faster and faster... \n\n8. You smile when you hear their voice... \n\n7. When you look at them, you can't see the other people around \nyou... all you see is him/her... \n\n6. You start listening to slow songs, while thinking of them... \n\n5. They become all you think about... \n\n4. You get high just from their scent... \n\n3. You realize that you're always smiling to yourself when you think \nabout them... \n\n2. You would do anything for them... \n\n1. While reading this, there was one person on your mind the whole \ntime.....

Attraction can happen in an instant. Love is something deeper  - happens when you get to know more about the other person. You can like someone one day but find that you start loving him as you come of know more of what he is like.\n\nUh- Arriola, grow up. You don't hurt the feelings of someone who tells you they love you. It is immature and juvenile. And Love does not mean you need to always die for someone. It is much much more than that. Duh!!

If you get butterflies around this boy, have trouble thinking of things to say around him, think about him all the time, or have a compulsive urge to look and seem prettier and/or funnier in his presence, chances are you have a crush.\n\nTrust me, as you get older, it'll be much easier to understand your feelings for boys.

You'll notice later on if he had a crush on you or not. I think it's pretty obvious, coz usually people tend to act differently and acts strange in front of their crushes. \nSome examples: \n1) He likes to tease you (he loves to see how you would react to him).\n2) He talks or flirts with you a lot, or call you often pretending to ask you HW questions.\n3) Trying to hide from you (if he's a shy person)\nI think you pretty much can feel the chemical reaction (if there is), your intuition and nerves will help you with that. But REMEMBER... if you like the guy, you should ask him...rather than waiting until he gets married.\nGuys like girls who tell them first about their feelings...\nBut it's hard if he thinks you're just an ordinary friend for him...Like i experience myself... well actually it's the other way, he told me that he likes me but i was disappointed coz i only see him as a good friend. And now our relationships as friends is not as close anymore. Oh well...I guess he hates me!\nWell that's all i can say!\nGood luck (^;^)

Telling someone isn't enough.  ^ (person above) You can tell anyone you love them and not mean it.  It's the actions that will tell you.  Try to look for the little things he does (or doesn't do) for you like compliments, noticing things, being attentive, etc.  and that will tell you.
