Feelings are weird because there are so many different ways to express it. They can be direct or indirect. Like for example, if you’re sad or mad, you can just say that you’re sad or mad. It could literally be simple as that, but if you have a romantic interest in someone or just a crush, it could be totally different. So today, we are only focusing on guys with crushes and what they always say to their crush. So, when a guy has a crush on you, you’ll know he always says these words. You might not catch them all, but one or two of these phrases might slip in. And there’s a reason for it. So, here are the common 10 phrases you’ll hear or something similar to it at least.
1. “Why are you single?”
Ahh the answer seeker. If a guy asks you why are you single? He’s honestly surprised because he already thinks that you are a great person to be with. He’s lowkey teasing you and also crushing on you when he asks that question. If he doesn’t have a crush on you, he wouldn’t ask that question to begin with. He’s looking for answers and wants to get to know you better, so one day he can slide into your life. haha

2. “You’re the best.”
The best is the top. It’s number one, it’s the gold trophy, it’s the home run. Calling someone the best isn’t saying that they’re good, it’s saying that they’re freakin’ awesome. Not only are you fun to be around, but your vibe and personality are also the best. It’s an all-around compliment. Being called the best is… well, the best.
3. “You’re cute.”
When you’re called hot, it means your makeup and outfit look great. Being called sexy means you’re pulling Megan-Fox vibes that make guys think of one thing in particular. Being called cute is deep. It includes your physical appearance and can also include your character and positive qualities. This guy sees you for more than just your physical appearance and has a compliment to show for it. When a guy has a crush on you, he’ll definitely say this at one point.
4. “Can I have a hug?”
Hugs are special and they could convey a lot of meaning. Care, support, comfort, love, etc. But if he says, “can I have a hug?” especially if he’s seeing you constantly, then he wants more physical contact with you because he likes you. You don’t see him asking for hugs with other people, now do you? He’s sure not asking your friends for a hug, right?

5. “You can have/borrow it.”
If you like something that’s his and out of nowhere he says you can have it or borrow it, then most likely he likes you. Guys don’t just randomly give away things to people. Especially when it’s theirs. And it doesn’t have to be that you like something, it could be that you’re cold and he whips out a jacket or sweater and gives it to you. Asking you to take it or borrow it and doesn’t even need to be returned. Now that’s a gentleman. Haha
6. “Can I join you?”
A guy asking to join is a guy asking to spend more time with you. Unless you have extra concert tickets or are going to some huge once-a-year event, most people won’t ask to join. If he asks to join you when you’re doing something repetitive or part of your daily routine, like going to the library or for a walk, he’s definitely crushing on you. Why else would you want to join in on an activity that you don’t need a partner for, right? This is a good indicator to tell when a guy has a crush on you.
7. “What are you doing?”
“What are you doing?” “What’s up?” “What’s going on?” and “How are you doing?” are all variations of the same greeting, opening up the floor for a conversation. This guy wants to chat more with you, and he’s interested to know what you have going on in your life. This type of prying will also let him know if you’re interested in him as well. I mean if you respond back quickly, then he could probably gauge that you are somewhat interested in talking.
8. “We should hang out more often.”
This is a bold move. A guy who says this feels that he isn’t seeing you as much as he would like to. To build a relationship with someone, even before dating, you need to spend enough time with them to get to know each other better. This comment opens the floor for you to accept his move or not. If you answer with excitement, he’ll be jumping at the chance to plan the next hangout!

9. “I miss you.”
Ah, the “I miss you.” This is the aching heart on a sleeve, and as close to a crush confession as you can get without them openly stating that they like you. You only miss people who make you smile when you’re with them or who brings out the best in you. No one misses the Debbie Downers or Negative Nancies in their life. If someone has a crush on you, they’ll for sure say this at one point or another because honestly, they miss you.
10. “I like you.”
And that’s the final crush confession. It doesn’t get much clearer than someone openly saying that they like you. This confession usually comes after they’ve tried out a ton of other ways to get your attention. Either you didn’t realize it until now, or you were ignoring the signs because you didn’t feel the same way. No matter the case, now is your time to either confess your feels right-back or friend-zone this guy back to where he came from. Haha, this is definitely what a guy would say when he has a crush on you.

Conclusion:
Now you might be thinking. “What about the shy guys, shy guys with crushes won’t say these things.” And you’re right because I was a shy guy too. A shy guy could say something like this… “Well, I guess I’ll talk to her another time.” They’ll keep their feelings locked up in their chamber of secrets because why would they let their feelings out. If feelings aren’t exposed, it can’t be hurt. If it can’t be hurt, then it’s invincible. Therefore, they are invincible. Haha, I’m kidding. So there you have it 10 phrases on what a guy would say when he has a crush on you.
