As you’ve probably figured by now, men aren’t always the best at verbal communication, and to fathom whether or not he’s into you, you’ve got to pick up on certain signals.
There are many signs of attraction that men show when they fancy someone. So, even though it may seem like a mammoth task, the trick is to read between the lines, and observe the body language and general behaviour of the person in question. Remember ladies, don’t split hairs about what level of interest the guy has, but evaluate how he treats you and what he makes you feel. Never sell yourself short!
If you’re on the fence about a special someone and have spent an impractical amount of time pondering over what his feelings for you really are, don’t worry. We’re here to make things simple.
As they say, prevention is better than cure, so before you lose your heart and soul to someone who might not reciprocate your feelings, here are five major signs that he’s not that into you:
1. He’s rarely around you and doesn’t really mind it

When a person wants something, they go after it. No one sits back, twiddling their thumbs, waiting for a miracle. So, if he’s not spending time with you and is visibly okay with that, take the cue!
2. He doesn’t remember stuff you tell him

It’s pretty simple: People remember things that are important to them. If he’s not listening to you or remembering the things you say, it means you’re not important to him. ‘God is in the details’ doesn’t only apply sartorially, it’s also apt in this case. If you’re special to him, he will surely remember the time you had a horrible day at work, or the story about the pet you had in your teens.
3. He couldn’t care less about the rapport you share with other men
If you tell him you had dinner with an “old friend” and his ears don’t perk up before he asks “Who is this person?”, he’s not invested! If he’s into you, he will care about all the other men you hangout with and will most probably know them all by name!
We’re not saying that fits of jealousy are a sign of affection, but a healthy regard for competition is normal. So, if he gives you the vibe that he doesn’t care, believe him!
4. You’re as good as any other buddy

When he feels differently about you, he’ll treat you differently. Nobody wants a romantic connection with someone who treats you the exact same way he treats his other friends. When you like someone, you want them to treat you like you’re special and that’s what you deserve!
5. He doesn’t think twice before talking about other women he likes

Ladies, if he’s talking about someone else that he’s seriously interested in, not just throwing a woman’s name out there to see how you react, it means he’s not interested. No, he isn’t trying to make you jealous! It’s a blatant signal he isn’t interested in dating you.
