Signs She Wants to Be More Than Friends

Are you wondering if a female friend wants to be in a relationship with you? It is hard to read the signs she wants more than friends, so we're going to help you out and teach you some of the silent and subtle ways women communicate their desires. Hopefully, this will help you learn where you stand with that girl you've had your eye on. It might even be a complete surprise and let you learn something about a girl you haven't noticed and had no idea was even interested in you. No single sign is for sure, but you can look for a pattern of these signs occurring. Together, if you count many of them, odds are she is into you and just waiting for you to make a move. So, let's look at some common signs she wants a relationship.

1. She gives you some hints

This may seem obvious, but it bears discussing. Sometimes a girl will simply tell you how she feels. It can be couched in friendly banter though, so pay attention. Does she often mention how lucky a girl would be to find you? Does she frequently tell you that you are too good for women you have an interest in? It may be because she wants to be the one by your side. So, pay attention and don't get annoyed when she starts dressing down other women or mentioning your positive traits. Don't get confused and assume you are just in the friend zone.

2. She cares about you as your girlfriend, not as a female friend

Your friends can be very supportive, but they have limits, particularly regarding your intimate life. Therefore, one of the main reasons people seek one another is the security and comfort that being in a relationship offers. One of those comforts is always having a partner to help when things go wrong and problems arise. It's easy for girls to enjoy being around you when you're doing well, but if she actively seeks you out when things are not going so well and tries to help you, she likely wants to be far more than just friends. The main difference is that you help friends when you can, but you drop whatever you're doing to help your partner whenever they need it. If she is always unconditionally there, that is far more than friendship.

3. She spends all her free time with you and responds quickly to your every message

One of the surest signs she wants to be more than friends is when she always spends her free time with you and is quick to respond to your messages. Girls are normally fairly subtle with their clues if they like a guy. If she is being obvious, the odds are good that she really has a lot of interest in you. You're getting a first-person view of what having her for a girlfriend could be like.

4. She learns more about your friends and family

Relationships don't grow in a vacuum. If she wants to be with you, she'll probably need to try and get along with your friends and family as well. To that end, she may start trying to build a relationship with them even while she is trying to build one with you. It's also important for the girl because you may talk to them and ask their opinion of her. She wants them to have nothing but positive things to say if you ask.

5. She expresses a little jealousy when you're close to another female friend

If she wants to be more than friends, she will start to view other women as competition. You may think you and she are just friends, but you can test that by paying close attention to her when you're around other women. It will be especially noticeable if you are with other women that flirt with you or seem interested in you. The direct competition will make her fume, and she likely won't be able to hide her jealousy. If you like her, it may be a sign that it is time to make your move and seek something more than just friendship with her.

6. She laughs at everything you say

When a girl likes you, she'll often laugh at every joke you make, even the bad ones. It's a nervous response that women frequently have around men they like. You may also notice her skin flushes around you, or her pulse seems to race. These are all physical manifestations of desire. Pay attention to these cues and you may be surprised which girls in the room truly desire you. These are particularly wonderful signs as they are much harder to fake, being largely unconscious, automatic responses.

7. She always finds reasons to touch you

Women are excellent at flirting without talking. They are very aware of the effect their appearance has on men and will use it. You may find a girl keeps finding reasons to touch you. Not obvious, sexual touching, but she might brush your hand when asking you to hand her something, or she might rest a hand on your knee while talking. Related to this, she may try to make herself more visually appealing by arching her back, posing subtly, or even changing her walk around you to accentuate her figure.

8. She asks for your help

Most modern women are not helpless and know perfectly well how to take care of problems that arise. That being said, they do want to know a guy is there for them in a jam and, more importantly, they might give you a chance to be a savior for them to get your attention. If they ask for help with something manly, like checking the oil in their car, ask yourself if it seems like something they have never had to deal with before. If the answer is no, she is very likely giving you a chance to save her so she can show how grateful she is.

Stay alert and you won't be caught by surprise

Women aren't nearly as mystifying as guys tend to make them out. It's just a matter of reading cues and body language. We've given you some of the signs she wants to be more than friends so pay close attention, and you may very well find out who is pining for your affection.
