If you’re wondering ‘should I ask her out?’ and you’re in two minds, learn the signs that indicate that she wants you to make a move first. That way, you’ll know for sure.
Does the question ‘should I ask her out?’ constantly hover in your mind? Do you struggle to find the courage to actually make the move? It’s understandable; asking anyone out can be scary. No one wants to get their feelings hurt or be humiliated by someone turning them down.
Sometimes, this can get really confusing. At times, you’re convinced she really likes you. And at other times, you’re just not so sure. In the worst case scenario, she might be leading you on by blowing hot and cold.
The problem is, the longer you have a crush on someone without doing anything about it, the higher he risk that you’ll end up in the friend zone. Or worse still, your crush will end up going out with someone else and be taken off the market altogether.

3. She seems to be staring at you a lot
4. She smiles at you
Smiling is our way of telling someone that we like them, that we are interested in them, and that we want to interact with them some more. If she can’t help but show her pearly whites every time you are around, then it’s clearly because she’s got a major crush going on. Should you ask her out? Yes!

Complimenting you is a pretty obvious sign that she likes you. Compliment her back and then stop asking the question, ‘should I ask her out?’!

If she gets all quiet and flustered around you, it’s because you clearly have a very good *but nerve-wracking* effect on her. If you like her too, then why not see if you can calm her nerves by taking her out to get to know one another better?

17. She ignores you
18. She keeps touching her hair
Research has shown that if a girl touches her hair, she’s doing so because she’s flirting. It’s a very self-conscious and feminine thing to do, so keep your eyes peeled to see if she does it when you are talking to her.
19. She wants to be alone with you
If she is always finding reasons to be alone with you, she’s hoping that might be just the right time for you to pluck up the courage to ask her out.

21. She tells her friends about you
If her friends seem to know all about you, it’s because she has been talking about you to them!

23. Her friends are always super psyched whenever the two of you are together
If her friends get all excitable whenever they see you two together, or say things about what a cute couple you are, they are probably not-so-subtly hinting that she likes you and the two of you should get together.
24. She laughs at what you say
25. She asks you to do everything *except go on a date*
She keeps asking you to do things with her, yet they are all non-date scenarios. That’s because she is trying to subtly hint to you that she wants to spend time with you, but doesn’t want to put her heart on the line and ask you on a proper date.
Be bold and make the first move!
26. She wants to be in pictures with you
If every time you pose for a snap, her pretty little face crops up, it’s her cunning way of making sure you remember her. Has it worked?!
27. She agrees to do anything you suggest
Even your most boring suggestions seem like wonderful ideas to her! She wants to spend time with you no matter what you’re doing, so why not ask her on a real date? It’s one of the signs she wants you to make a move, after all.
28. She doesn’t talk about other guys around you

She’s told you *probably more than once* that she doesn’t have a boyfriend. Now why do you think that is?
30. She’s asked you if you are single
31. She’s batting her eyelashes at you
Once you start noticing her fluttering her eyelashes at you ever so often, you can chalk that up as an indication that she is interested.
However, hang in there and see if she exhibits other flirtatious signals before making a move. You want to make sure she is indeed giving you a sign, and it has nothing to do with a dry contact lens. [Read: How to flirt with your eyes and catch anyone’s attention in the room]

Another way to tell that she wants you to make a move is when she makes an effort to get comfortable. Once a woman settles down, you know that she is feeling great and does not plan on heading anywhere.
If a woman chooses to make conversation with you in a social setting where she can have her pick of any guy, you probably have it in the bag. Do not wait too long to make a move because she may just take it as a sign of disinterest on your part. [Read: What to do when a girl likes you – The right way to make your move on her]
33. She brushes up against you
Women tend to use their bodies as a flirtation tool.
So, if she touches you or brushes up against you often, take it as one of the signs that she wants you to make a move. If a woman brushes up against you more than twice in a short time-frame, you can be sure that it was not by accident.
34. She draws attention to her breasts
Whether they care to admit it, all men have a fascination with boobs and women know this.
35. She makes an effort to stay in touch with you regularly
A woman is hinting for you to make a move when she keeps in touch with you all the time. This includes odd hours of the day. If she replies to your 1:00am messages, or answers your call at 11:30pm, she is definitely interested.
36. Licking and biting her lip
How do you tell if a woman is attracted to you?
Signs a Girl Is Attracted to You Smiling at you. Shooting short glances your way. Darting her eyes away when you look at her. Making prolonged eye...
When we like someone, we tend to subconsciously try to draw attention to our lips. So, if you see her licking her lips often or biting her lip while making eye contact, it’s one of the signs she wants you to make a move. She might play with her hair at the same time.
37. She obviously flirts back
If you’re flirting up a storm and she’s flirting back, that’s a solid sign. She’s not going to waste her time flirting with someone whom she has no direct interest in.
38. She’s extremely warm with you
Now, be careful with this one because you will need to add other signs to give you a full picture. If she’s very warm around you, e.g. she asks a lot of questions, she seems really interested, and she’s touchy feely, it could be a good sign.
However, it could be that she’s simply a very warm and tactile person. For that reason, look for additional signs to be sure, but it’s certainly a hint in the right direction. [Read: 7 things to know before dating a type A personality]
39. She angles her body toward you
One of the key signs she wants you to make a move is her body language. Body language is key in understanding whether a woman is flirting or just being friendly.
If she angles her body towards you, without crossing her arms or placing any barriers between the two of you, that’s a great sign.
If she starts to mirror your body language, i.e. if you lean to one side, she does too, that’s another clear sign she’s attracted to you subconsciously. [Read: 37 body language clues a girl gives away subconsciously if she likes you]
If she’s making comments that are definitely flirty and even suggestive, she’s doing it for a reason.
Girls don’t tend to make suggestive comments to guys they don’t want to be around because they know it would only encourage the wrong type. So, if her comments are not only racy but moving towards sexual, make a move!
41. She doesn’t back off when you move closer
If you take a step toward her, she will either stand her ground, move closer, or move back. If she moves back, you know she doesn’t want you to make a move.
42. She’s always genuinely glad to see you
Women often display two types of smiles. There’s the default smile for when something amusing is happening or for times when she just needs to put a smile on when facing people.
The other type of smile is the one that brightens up her whole face. It’s the smile you see on women who are genuinely excited and happy about something.
43. She’s engrossed in what you have to say
You know a conversation is going downhill when the person you’re talking to just nods, fakes a smile, and responds with monosyllabic words. But that’s not the case when you’re talking to her.
She always seems genuinely interested in what you’re saying. She gives you follow up questions, responds proactively, and intently hangs on to every word you’re saying.
44. You’re suddenly a really funny guy
Women love it when a guy can make them laugh. But even if you’ve never really been the class clown, she always seems so amused with everything you have to say. Your jokes, one-liners, and impressions are really hitting her funny bone. [Read: 29 things to know to make a girl laugh, smile and like you instantly!]
She’ll often ask you if you’ve ever been to that sushi place in the next block or that hot new café that everyone’s raving about.
You’ll start to notice that she’s taken a sudden interest in all these places and she’s sharing that interest with you. Take it as a hint that she would like to go to those places with you one of these days.
46. She mentions when she’s free
“Oh, I don’t really have anything planned after work. You?” Does this line sound familiar? She’s telling you that she has no other plans *i.e. no dates scheduled*, and that if you were to ask her out then and there, she’s got the free time to take you up on that offer. [Read: 20 signs she’s just leading you on and not really interested in dating you]
47. She asks you out instead
Sometimes a girl’s got to do what a girl’s got to do. If she musters up the courage to ask you out, give her some credit.
So, does she want you to make a move?
If she’s not into you, you’ll tell by noting what she does when the two of you are alone. If she resorts to fiddling with her phone and taking phone calls, she is trying to diffuse the awkwardness of being around you solo.
It’s a good idea to look for a few of these signs before deciding whether to go for it or not. Some girls are simply very friendly and aren’t flirting at all. However, when you can nod along to several of these signs, you can be pretty sure that she’s trying to entice you into making a move.
These 47 signs answer the question, ‘should I ask her out?’ So what are you waiting for? Ask her out already!
