1. He Remembers the Small Stuff: You mentioned your love for iced coffee three weeks ago, and he brings you one. He remembers your sister’s name, your favorite band, that big project you were stressed about. This shows he’s not just hearing you; he’s listening and he cares.

  2. He Gets a Little Nervous: Does his voice crack a bit? Does he fumble with his phone? A little nervous energy is a great sign! It means he wants to make a good impression and you have an effect on him.

  3. The Eye Contact is Intense: He holds your gaze just a second or two longer than normal. You’ll catch him looking at you from across the room. When you’re in a group, his eyes will frequently find their way back to you.

  4. He Teases You Playfully: Light, gentle teasing is a classic flirting technique. It’s his way of creating a private, fun dynamic between the two of you. (The key is that it never feels mean-spirited.)

  5. He’s Curious About Your Love Life: He might casually ask, “So, are you seeing anyone?” or make a joke about your “type.” He’s trying to figure out if the coast is clear and what he’s up against.
