OK, guys, listen up. Whether you just got out of a relationship with a girl and are still hung up or whether your crush is just not reciprocating then here are a few things that hint its time to move on because she just isn't into it. Feel free to mix and match as you see fit to your situation and I hope all the insight you need is now in your in your hands.
1. She breaks up with you.
Guys, this is not a Hallmark movie, you're not getting back together. Typically, this should have been your first clue.
2. She isn't dwelling on the breakup like you are.
If she doesn't talk about it unless someone else brings it up or doesn't act like it changed her as much as it changed you then she is ready for something new and you should be too.
3. She avoids excessive and unnecessary eye contact.Â
When she catches you looking at her too much she will usually stop looking back and begin to avoid making any eye contact at all.
4. She is flirting with other guys.
Okay, so this one should be a little obvious. If she is flirting with another guy and especially if she is flirting with more than one guy her line is already out there ready to catch the other fish in the sea.
5. She leaves you on read.
As much as this is a popular meme which cracks us all up, it is also the truth. If she leaves you on read more than once in a row then she obviously doesn't want to talk.
6. She only answers with extremely short responses.
This applies to both real-life conversations and texting if she does by chance respond. She is only gonna say the bare minimum to scrape by or end the conversation.
7. She doesn't keep in touch with you.
Plain and simple. Not much else to say about this. If you're not getting the hint by now I don't know what else can help you see it.
8. She doesn't ask if you're ok when you're moping.
If the extent of your conversations are small talk and never anything more, catch a hint. When you're walking around with sad puppy eyes or sulking in the corner and she just says hi and keeps walking, it means something. She doesn't want to get caught up in it.
9. She uses the term bro, fam, or brother in Christ.
This is self-explanatory. There is only one thing worse than the allusive and alleged "friend-zone" and that would be being put in the "family-zone." Not to say it is a room with a locked door but it is much harder to get out of then the really good friend title.
10. She has a generally happier demeanor.
If she is acts happier than she ever acted around you then chances are that going back would feel like a regression.
11. Your side comments don't have any effect.
If your side comments or under your breath remarks literally get no reaction or care then I think it is safe to say you should move past it.
12. She finds reasons to move to the opposite side of the room.
If you notice that every time you come into her hemisphere of the room she slowly moves to the other one with or without an excuse...then maybe she doesn't want to be near you. To save her and yourself from the awkward maybe quit chasing her when you know she'll keep moving away.
