She smiles at you and strokes your arm, but you don't know how to tell if a girl is flirting with you. Does she like you or is she just being polite? When a girl is flirting with you, she will do very distinct things to let you know she's into you. Next time you end up chatting with a girl, look for these hints to know if she is flirting with you.

  1. She copies what you do. A girl who is flirting with you will imitate your body movements. If you are standing opposite her at a club, cross your arms. If she crosses her arms too, that means she likes you and is trying to flirt with you.
  2. She plays with her hair or touches her mouth. When a girl is flirting with you, she will try to subtly draw your attention to her attractive features. Respond to her flirtatious movements by gently reaching out and brushing her hair out of her eyes for her.
  3. She reaches out and touches you. A girl who comes up with any excuse to touch you is definitely flirting with you. The best thing to do if she reaches to touch your arm or pat your knee is to respond in kind when the opportunity presents itself. If you're not interested in her, simply brush off her touch.
  4. She makes an effort to get you alone. If a girl abandons her clique to come over and talk with you, she has one thing on her mind: flirting, and hopefully getting you to go out on a date. The next time a girl you are interested in leaves her friends to come up and talk with you, take your chance after a few minutes of flirting and ask her out.
