12 Sign to Know if Your Coworker Likes You

Knowing if a coworker likes you is not so obvious, because due to the environment or the work rules that prohibit relationships, these signs must be hidden and often go unnoticed.

Here I explain the main signs to know if a coworker likes you:

1. Pay more attention to you than the rest

If he pays more attention to you than the rest of his colleagues, both in person, if he visits you occasionally in your office to chat, or he sends you messages through private chat, he will most likely like you.

You must know how to differentiate kindness from taste and attraction. Some people are very sociable and are attentive to all their colleagues to help them with their tasks or just to chat.

However, if you see that he is more aware of you than the rest, that he always seeks to talk to you or that he shows special interest in helping you with your things, it is an excellent sign that you are attracted to him.

2. Show special interest in your private life

It is normal for a colleague to show interest in your work, but when the interest is focused on your private life it may have other intentions.

If you see that he is interested in knowing what you like to do, what your hobbies are, what places you frequent and you like to visit and especially if you are single or have a partner, chances are this partner likes you.

3. Always looking to be close to you

Another sign that can mean that a coworker likes you is that he always seeks to be close to you; that is, where you go he goes or where you are he is, even if it is not necessary.

When a man likes a woman he feels the need to always be close to her, so if a partner is interested in you, he will try to be where you are ... at lunches, meetings, group outings and conferences.

Another very obvious sign is that, in addition to being where you are, look for closeness. For example, in meetings, look to sit next to you, just like at lunch or break.

4. Make up unnecessary conversation topics just to chat

A very common sign is the attempt to communicate at all times, even if you make up silly excuses to ask yourself about topics that you know little about or many others at work could clarify for you better.

The need for conversation is something very common when two people attract. It is frequent that the interested person seeks to speak, so you should be aware of the partner you suspect.

Pay attention: if he always asks your opinion in conferences or meetings, what you think, what you believe, what you would change or what you think ... it shows that he is interested in you.

5. He looks at you frequently

They say that the eyes are the window to the soul and, in this case, it is not the exception. One of the signs that you should be more attentive to is the gaze.

If you've caught him staring at you repeatedly or you see him frequently sneak a peek at you, he might be interested.

You have to know how to differentiate the looks for attraction or interest and the normal looks.

For example, if you are making a presentation or making a point, it is normal to be observed. But when you catch it for no apparent reason, it shows you find it interesting.

Also pay attention to the intensity of the gaze, the frequency and whether it is holding or turning when you look. This can tell you a lot about their degree of interest and their personality.

6. Always smile at you

The smile says a lot about people. It is normal to smile at work, because it creates a pleasant environment.

On the other hand, if you see your partner watching you and giving you a smile repeatedly, for no apparent reason, they may like you.

7. Try to contact you outside of work

An infallible sign to know that your coworker likes you is that he tries to locate you outside of work, either with irrelevant work excuses or simply to know how you are.

If the co-worker tries to contact you by calls, WhatsApp or other means to speak without really valid reasons, they may like you and want more contact with you.

8. Frequently compliments you

Pay attention to the compliments your partner makes you. At work they are generally a bit more sneaky and you may not notice them.

Things like "look good" or "nice blouse" may be clues that you are attracted to her. Also, if you compliment your job a lot like "you were great at the meeting," it may indicate that you like it.

9. Invites you to activities outside of work

If the co-worker become more free around you, this is a very obvious sign that a colleague likes you.

If your partner is aware of whether or not you will attend that Christmas dinner, or if he is especially interested in your attendance, it is a sign that he feels something for you.

Also if he invites you for a coffee or lunch with a work excuse —or if he stresses that you attend an after work meeting— it may mean that he likes you.

He can also ask your friends and not you directly, so find out if he's been hanging around or asking questions about it.

10. Mirror effect

To find out if a boy likes you, pay attention to his behaviour. If he imitates the things you do, for example, if you smile and he smiles, you may be attracted to him.

Also if it coincides in all your opinions, for example, if a movie has seemed good to you and him too, or you are bothered by a situation and he is the same.

11. I give you things

A very obvious sign that a boy likes you is that he tries to give you gifts. Sure, since they are at work, you should be sneaky.

Therefore, be careful if you arrive with a coffee, some cookies or a breakfast, because "he noticed that you have not eaten" or because "he saw that you like latte and stopped by the cafeteria".

12. Offered to take you

If your partner offers to take you home from work frequently (or out of the office), they might like you.

If he insists on taking you home when he has to deviate from his route to do so or he forces himself on others to take you, he might want to spend time with you.
