How do you know if someone actually likes you back, or if you’re just overthinking everything?
Problem: Now I can’t tell if I’m just overthinking because I got attached, or if she actually liked me back at some point. Part of me wants to ask her directly so I can finally stop wondering, but I’m also scared it’ll make things awkward and ruin whatever connection or friendship we still have.
Context: I was rereading some old conversations with this girl, and it made me realize there might’ve been something there after all. She told me before that she wasn’t looking for anything serious/rs, so I tried not to assume anything. But looking back now, some of our conversations felt more genuine and personal than I initially thought.
We haven’t talked for about maybe a week now, and honestly, she still crosses my mind a lot. Ever since we started talking, I don’t think she ever fully left my head.
Have you ever been in this situation? How do you know if someone genuinely liked you back?
