Have you ever been in a situation where it feels like somebody likes you, but they tell you they don’t? It might be a case of somebody trying to spare your feelings, or it could be that they’re playing games. Either way, figuring out how to get them to admit their true feelings for you is the only real solution.
Read on for tips on detecting if somebody is pretending not to like you and what steps you can take from there.
1. They’re not being blunt about it.
Have you ever been in a situation where you think somebody likes you, but they keep giving the simplest of answers? For example, when asked how you were doing, they’d say they were OK. They don’t give a straight answer that doesn’t leave room for interpretation? You may be dealing with a duper.
2. You can see on their face that they don’t like you.
This is a pretty obvious one. If someone is not being completely honest with you, it’s bound to show on their face at some point. For example, they’d have a forced smile instead of a genuine one. They’re not going to be able to hide their true feelings forever.
