You've finally connceted up with that hottie you've been eyeing. But lately, you get the feeling it's your body he's interested in and not YOU. Hey, you deserve better than that! Myjellybean.com presents tips for how to tell if a guy likes your whole self... or if he's just in it for what he can get.
A guy who remembers little things about you - like your birthday, your dog's name, and your favorite comfort food - is probably into you for real. It's like he's stocking up on facts about you, so he can understand the whole you. If your boyfriend demonstrates that he recalls little things you've said about your opinions, likes and dislikes, it's a clue that he's into the whole package.
If your crush goes out of his way to win over your girlfriends, he wants to be part of your inner circle. That's a hint that he'll be sticking around - if you let him. It also tells you that he cares about making a good impression on your friends... because he wants them to encourage you to keep seeing him.
If your guy loves to talk to you and keeps up his end of the conversation, that's a positive sign. It means he's interested in what's inside your beautiful brain, not just what's under your clothes.
If you've been dating a guy for more than a month and you haven't met his parents, be cautious. He could be keeping you away from his family because he plans to dump you once he gets what he wants - your body. On the other hand, it could just be circumstances, like they live far away or he's embarrassed of them. When in doubt, ask to be invited over and see what he says.
A guy who avoids your friends is giving a warning sign. That's because - if he's a player - those are the people who will hate him after he uses you! However, some guys just don't like having to become part of a girl's posse. And if your friends are rude to him, or act immature, maybe he just thinks you're cooler company than them. Give it some thought and you can probably figure out what's going on.
A dude who seems like he's always waiting for you to finish talking, may be sending a danger signal. If a boy loves you, he will also love what you have to say. So if your boyfriend is quiet but a good listener, don't be worried. Not every guy is big on lengthy conversations. However, if he cuts your convo short with a kiss every chance he gets, he's showing you that he values you physically... but not otherwise.
If your guy will only see you when nobody else is around, he's probably seeking privacy because he's only after one thing. So if your boyfriend is only interested in coming to your house when your folks are out, stop inviting the jerk over!
Does your boyfriend only like the way you look in certain outfits? Look out - he could be dressing you up for the kill. Chances are, this type of guy wants you to fit a sexy stereotype that turns him on. It doesn't matter to him what your personal style is. Get rid of this loser! Guys who like the real you will find you attractive in any outfit.
Does he leap on you like Spidey every time you are alone for a minute? Do you never get to talk because he'd rather make out than listen? It's clear he's only interested in being alone with you for one reason. Move on!
