Steps
- Before you say anything to your friend, watch her closely. More than often will her actions, poses, and facial expressions reveal her hidden secret. Ask yourself the following questions:
- Does she hang out with your boyfriend more than you?
- Does she seem to hover/linger around him and strike up more conversations with him than you?
- Are her eyes dilated when they're focused on him?
- Does she appear nervous and a little giggly around him?
- Has she said anything that may hint that she likes him? (Ex: "Your boyfriend is really cute!")
- When you three are together, watch your friend for any signs of flirting or wanting to flirt. See if she laughs at almost every joke he cracks, giggles and blushes a lot, and/or bats her eyelashes.
- Watch her if she makes any physical contact with him. Is it flirty or just a simple, innocent gesture of friendship?
- Listen to your boyfriend and be alerted if he says anything about how weird your friend is acting around him. Take note of any strange, suspicious behaviors he mentions.
- Be alerted when she asks a lot about your boyfriend. She could be just a caring friend who wants to know more, or a secret admirer that wants to be liked back.
- Does she ask a lot about his attitude? Family? What makes him happy, angry...etc. She could be studying him to maybe steal your boyfriend from you.
Tips
- If she tries to cut you off from him so she can talk to him then that is a big sign she likes him.
- If she tries to keep you two apart then that's a sign that she might like him.
- If your best friend acts weird or giggles a lot around him, this could also be a sign she likes him.
- Hating on him all the time could just be a way that your best friend tries to hide her feelings. (Warning: this could also mean that your friend just hates your boyfriend.)
- Go and pretend that you and your boyfriend have split up, and if she flirts with him, then she likes him.
- If she's dressing with her favorite clothes, wears makeup, and perfume only when she's around him, it is a sign.
- Ask your best friend what she thinks about your boyfriend.
Warnings
- Your best friend may be suspicious, so plan it out and think carefully.
- Don't ask your friend straight out if she likes your bf.
- Don't look in your friend's phone to see if she tries to talk to him
- You might hurt her feelings.
