Have you ever been with a group of people maybe it’s just a group of friends or people that you see occasionally, but aren’t buddy, buddy, and then you start catching feelings for someone automatically. Likes it’s so strange. You lock eyes with someone for a brief moment and then you feel like you’re in love. And yes, that has happened to me many times. Then you start coming up with this idea, that, “I bet this girl across from me likes me, but she’s just pretending she doesn’t.” But then in reality no one cares, but then I care. Haha. Then you start making a video talking about the 10 signs she’s pretending not to like you. And now here I am going over these 10 signs on how to know if a girl likes you but pretends not to (same thing). So, if you are ever in this situation, this might help, or maybe it won’t. Haha
1. She says she doesn’t care, but her actions show differently.
Can a girl pretend to not like you? Of course! If she actually doesn’t like you, it’s pretty easy to see because she will treat you the same as everyone else or just don’t care. If she’s pretending not to like you, on the other hand, you’re going to get mixed messages coming at you from every direction. She will be rolling her eyes and saying things like, “I don’t care,” but she also seems to be around every corner and looking at you whenever she has the chance. She could shrug off your flirty jokes, but her red face will tell you a different story. Or that she said she’s not going to help you, but lowkey ends up helping you behind your back. So that’s one way to tell.

2. She talks a lot to everyone in the room except you.
Is she pretending not to like you? Of course, again! This is a good indicator only if you aren’t mad at each other or enemies. Girls tend to do this. They’ll go and talk to everyone, and she’ll look at you and just smile and walk away. Like you exist, but at the same time, don’t. If that makes any sense. It’s like she wants to talk to you, but then her mind is like, “nahhh, I’ll try next time.” So, if you experience something like that, there’s a chance that she’s pretending not to like you.
3. She replies late to your texts… but always replies.
While the conversation won’t be smooth sailing when it’s with a girl who’s trying to be low-key, it will be continuous… although you should expect some long gaps in between messages. Don’t let this get you down – the important thing is that she answers with more than a short response and that she doesn’t flat out ghost you. The reason for this could simply be that she’s busy. That’s why some girls can’t fully commit to a relationship when she’s juggling multiple things at once in her life. But if the message has been days, then she’s probably not interested or just totally forgot about it. It’s cool though, you know I’m always here for you at least.
4. She avoids talking about who she likes.
Whether someone else brings it up or you do, a girl pretending not to like someone won’t admit who they like… obviously. She barely wants to acknowledge it with herself, much less to anyone else or the actual person she’s talking to! She’ll say things like, “I don’t like anyone, right now,” but, let’s be real, how often do we actually have zero interest in anyone on this planet? You don’t like your parents? Haha I got you there.

5. She stops herself from being overly expressive.
If this girl is avoiding her feelings for you, she definitely doesn’t want to fill you in about her feelings. That being said, she will avoid and stop any moments where it seems like you two are connecting too much. This will happen when she’s finally letting down her guard or if she’s having a great time with you, but suddenly gets cold and tries to disconnect. It’s like abort, abort, abort mission now feelings are compromised.
6. She likes your posts but will rarely comment.
Your pictures and shares will never go unnoticed, but it’ll probably take her a while or forever to even comment on anything on your profile. She still isn’t sure if she wants others to suspect her feelings, much less you, so she’ll stay on the sidelines for now. You can bet that she’ll be watching to see if you like her posts, though! And if you have feelings for her, why not throw a comment at her to make her smile.
7. Her body language conflicts with what she says.
She might have the tone of an uninterested customer service agent at some corporate office, but you might see her true feelings and intentions through her body language. She might allow you to make physical contact, or even have some herself, and her shiny eyes glancing at you in secret will be one of the big signs to look out for. Another one would be open arms and standing or sitting near you, even if you two aren’t communicating much! She may sound uninterested, but her body is saying something different.

8. She won’t hang out one-on-one but attends every group hangout you’re in.
You can throw one-on-one hanging outs the window, as that’s way too intimate for someone who is hiding their feelings for you. To play it safe she will stick to attending each and every one of the group hangouts just to see you, which gives her the chance to be there and hoping for you to at least reach out to her. Again, it’s no coincidence that on every hangout you’re in, she’s also there.
9. She flat-out ignores you when you talk about other girls.
You both aren’t talking much, and if you start talking about someone else in a romantic way, the feeling of jealousy will just come back and it will just give her another reason why she doesn’t want to talk to you and put some distance between the two of you. Eventually, if you do this long enough, her slight interest in you, will just be gone. I mean, if that’s what you want.
10. She won’t be the one reaching out to talk to you.
If you are waiting for her message or call, you’ll probably retire before your phone makes a ring. While she won’t be the one initiating the conversation, she will be interested in talking to you if you just reach out. Shy girls are like this all the time. And she could be a shy girl. They won’t do it because they are simply shy. And of course, confessing to you first will not be one of their priorities.
