About This Quiz
Some guys can be so confusing! One minute your crush is sliding into your DMs, the next he's blowing you off to go party with his friends. When you see him the next day, he avoids making eye contact, but then he follows that coldness up with a series of flirty 2 a.m. texts. What are you supposed to think? Does he like you or not?
If you're tired of playing guessing games with that special someone, this quiz can help. We know you're sick of pretending not to care, so we've come up with a series of questions designed to determine whether he's just being nice or if he's hiding a big fat crush on you. It's possible that his hugs and compliments are signs that he's been in love with you for years, but it's also possible that he merely likes you as a friend or is stringing you along because he likes getting attention from you.ÂÂ
Don't put up with this painful uncertainty any longer. You deserve love in your life, whether it's from him or someone new. If you're ready to find out what his mixed signals actually mean, it's time to take this quiz!
