One of your best friends found his soulmate? Generally, someone in love won't mind spending time chatting and/or texting their crush, even telling their closest friends everything special about that person. However, usually the fear of rejection will discourage them from seeking information about the person's feelings, and this is where your role may come in. Armed with the tips outlined in this article, become a love detective and try to dig into the heart of the person your friend likes!
Step
Method 1 of 10: Be as straightforward as possible
Step 1. Actually, this is the easiest way to find out what's in the heart of the person your friend likes
However, before doing this, make sure you get permission from your friends, okay! If you have permission, feel free to approach your friend's crush after making sure no one else is nearby and ask a question that may have been on your mind for a long time.
- You can immediately ask, "You like Breanne, don't you?"
- Remember, the person may feel embarrassed to confess their feelings to you. As a result, he may also answer “no,” even though his heart says something different.
Method 2 of 10: Send a short text message
Step 1. Use a more implicit approach if the person is a bit shy
Chances are, a shy person will find it easier to confess their feelings through text messages or online chats, rather than in a face-to-face conversation. If you have her cell phone number, try to find information about the person she is in love with through text messages. If you want, you can even dig straight into his feelings for your friend in the same way.
- Send a short text message that says, "Is there someone you're having a crush on, isn't there?"
- If the answer is “yes”, immediately share the good news with your friends! However, if the answer is “no,” try to encourage your friend to forget about it and turn her feelings over to someone else.
Method 3 of 10: Send a signal
Step 1. In a casual way, try to convey to the person that in your friend's eyes, he looks cute
There's no need to divulge all of your friend's secrets, such as that she always writes the person's name in her diary, but try to send a signal of your friend's interest in her. Some examples of statements and questions you can ask:
- "You probably already know this, but I still want to say that Jessica thinks you're cute."
- “Lately you and Brian have been chatting, haven't you? I think he likes you, right?"
Method 4 of 10: Dig up information about his romantic relationship
Step 1. Try to dig up information about his current relationship status to clarify the situation
If he seems to be chatting or chatting intimately with other boys or girls, chances are that your friend's feelings aren't reciprocated. However, if he doesn't show any signs of being close to anyone, then your friend still has a chance to get his attention!
- Ask questions like, "So, are you single or not?"
- Or, “How has your love life been lately?”
Method 5 of 10: Dig up information about his desire to date
Step 1. The person your friend likes is still single?
Maybe he just doesn't want to date anyone right now. To confirm this assumption, try to dig up information about his desire to date. If it turns out that he actually doesn't close himself off from the possibility of romantic relationships with other people, it means that your friend still has a chance to fill his heart!
- For example, you might say, “Hey, you haven't had a boyfriend for a long time, haven't you. Now looking for a new girlfriend, right?”
- Or, “I heard you just broke up, didn't you? After this, do you want to be single for a while or what?”
Method 6 of 10: Dig up information about his ideal type of partner
Step 1. By knowing the type of partner he wants, you will be able to identify someone he might like
If his description matches your friend's traits, chances are that the two of them are indeed a match! If you want, you can also dig up information about the characteristics of his ex-girlfriend to clarify the results of the analysis.
- Ask questions like, "You have a dream type, don't you?"
- If you want, you can also ask, "What kind of person do you usually date?"
Method 7 of 10: Dig up information about the person he likes
Step 1. One way to identify the person's feelings for your friend is to try to find information about the person who is currently attracting their attention
However, don't force him to give an answer and/or overdo it so that your hidden intentions are not exposed, OK!
For example, you could ask, "Is there anyone you like?" Or, "Who the hell do you like now?"
Method 8 out of 10: Dig up information about a person who catches his eye among your friends
Step 1. In fact, it's the perfect method for exploring his implicit attraction to your friend
To keep your ulterior motives from being read by him, try to sound like you're joking. In this way, he will surely not take your words seriously, but you will still get an answer about his feelings for your friend. Some examples of questions you can ask:
- "If you had to date one of my friends, who would you choose?"
- "If you really had to choose, which of my friends would you go on a date with?"
Method 9 out of 10: Offer to give your friend's mobile number
Step 1. Maximize your role as matchmaker
However, before doing anything, don't forget to ask your friends for permission! If you're allowed, try offering to send your friend's phone number to someone she likes. If your offer is accepted by that person, congratulations, because it means that your job as matchmaker has been well done!
- To the person your friend has a crush on, try saying, "Uh, I can send you Taylor's cell number, lo, if you want."
- At first, the behavior may embarrass your friend. However, trust me that later on she will feel very grateful when she receives a message from the person she likes!
Method 10 out of 10: Compliment your friends
Step 1. If the person agrees with your compliment, it means that your friend's feelings may not be mutual
So try to mention how cool or attractive your friend is when you're around that person. Compliment his academic performance, the clothes he wears, or his kindness and sincerity. Some examples of compliments you can offer:
- "I think Elaine is the coolest-dressed student on campus."
- "I've always been amazed by James' intelligence. In my opinion, he is the smartest boy in school!”
Tips
- If shyness prevents your friend from sharing their romantic life, there's no need to be upset and don't force yourself to help. Maybe your friend will have better luck finding the answer on their own.
- If your friend's feelings aren't reciprocated, try to convince him that maybe this is a good time for him to like someone else.
