Hey guys! So as the title says, I need advice. There's a guy that my friends have been constantly saying "He likes you" and "You should totally date him". He's one of my close friends and he's nice and all around a good guy but I'm not sure whether I like him that way or not. To be honest, I have no idea what it feels like to like someone in that way. I've watched dramas and talked to people I know that are dating people and every answer is different. So I need help, how do I know whether I like this person in that way or not?

Sorry I meant I need help not advice lol. But anything helpful is much appreciated

well if you dont feel like you like someone then you dont this feeling comes by itself..you like it or not.So if you dont feel like you like someone then you just dont you aint ready for something like that and if you end up dating this guy it will be a one sided thing cause you dont know if you like him but he knows for sure.
If you like someone then you will start getting butterflys in your stomach and wont be able to stop thinking of them having them in thought will take the most space in your head it will seem like the most important think to you thats a short descreption of the things happening when you like some i could go on but it will take ages to finish describing it.
Good luck again if you dont feel like you like him but you dont wont to hurt him then you could idk like accept the fact that he likes you but you dont quite like him back ive never seen this happening so i dont know how it turns out depending on him this could have a really good ending or an odd BUT NOMATTER WHAT dont let him call you his lover until you are 100% that you like him and watch out not to force your self to feel anything for him this so come by it self and shouldnt be forced on

Again good luck the dollars are with you

You sound young.

That's not necessarily a bad thing of course, don't take it to heart please. I was like that when I was in my pre-teens.
'Love' or, 'crushing' on someone feels different from person to person.
Even yourself, it probably won't be the same experience every time.

When I'm crushing on somebody, my heart races, my face feels like it's burning and I want to see them as much as possible. I'm excited, so want to talk about then and anything the person says can switch me into a different mood.
Generally, it's a nice feeling.

When I'm in love, I'm very very calm and collected around the person. Out of all of my crushes, I've only been in love once before. For me, I want to protect that person as much as possible, and I just enjoy being in their presence. I admire the person so much.

You don't necessarily need to feel physical reactions to a person to be in love with them.

However, here's a little bit of advice, from my own personal experience. Don't rush yourself into a relationship you're unsure about. It's not fair on you or your partner.

I hope that helped your confusion at all.

i agree with Mi tho love for humans depending on life events and personality comes in many ways shape and forms

Agree! >>5

Thanks for the comments guys! I've officially graduated high school but I guess I'm still quite young ahaha. I'm going to spend time thinking about how I feel and will update if anything major happens :)
