All you need to do now is turn your confidence into action and go and ask him.

2. You’re always flirting with each other

You’re always flirting with each other

Whenever you spend time with him you find yourself blushing and laughing, you’re always teasing each other and the way he talks to you is flirty and maybe a little bit dirty. Sound familiar? If it does, you’re definitely flirting with each other and therefore you should move things forward by asking him out.

3. He drops hints that he wants to be asked

Does this particular man always talk about the dating scene? Or perhaps he’s got a way of letting you know he wants to date you. However, he does it, if a man is dropping hints that he wants to go on a date with you and wants you to ask, just go for it.

4. You know he’s in an awkward position and can’t ask

Does this guy act like he wants you so badly, but still hasn’t made a move? Have you thought about whether he’s in an awkward position and might not be able to ask you? Perhaps he’s your ex’s friend or a colleague. You will have to take the lead here.

5. You talk all the time

If he’s the one you’re always eager to share the good news with, have late night chats with and speak to throughout the day, it’s more than friends, so why not ask him on a date to take things forward? Clearly you’re both interested in each other.

6. There’s undeniable chemistry between you both

You feel it when you’re around him, your friends have told you that they feel the sexual tension in the room when the two of you are together and you can tell you want to rip each other’s clothes off. It’s time to be the one to take the chemistry and put it to use by actually dating each other.

7. You think about him constantly

Although guys aren’t always the most vocal about how they feel, they will show you through their body language if they like you. When you’re in group settings, does he always hold your eye contact? Does he face his body towards yours or casually touch your body at any chance he gets? He’s into you and you should ask him out!

9. You "friend date" all the time

10. You have a feeling he feels overpowered by you

12. He compliments you all the time

If a man is constantly telling you how beautiful he thinks you are or is always reminding you of how impressive you are, he’s got his reasons - he’s into you and wants you to know! So for goodness sake, take the hint and ask him to dinner.

13. He finds ways to be around you

Do you notice that this particular man is always at the same events you are? Or perhaps he bumps into you nearly every day. He could be finding ways to be around you because he’s interested in you. So, take the hint and find out whether he wants to make it an actual thing by dating you.

14. Both your friends think you should go on a date

16. You’re already romantic together
