14 Signs She Likes You As a Friend (Friends - Zoned)

1. Respond to Touch

There are plenty of ways to tell if a girl likes you as more than a friend, but one of the most telling is how she responds to your touch. If she doesn't respond positively to your touch, she will likely only see you as a friend. If she doesn't respond well to your touch, it could be that she's not interested in you romantically. Of course, there could be other reasons she doesn't respond well to your touch. You'll make things awkward and push her away if you keep trying to get physical when it's clear she doesn't want to be touched.

2. Slow Reply

Does she take a long time to respond when you text her? It could be a sign that she friend-zoned you. If she liked you more than a friend, she'd at least send you a quick message letting you know she's busy. If the message feels one-sided, there is a high chance it is not that into you.

3. Ask You Out

If she sees you as much as her other friends, it's a tell-tale sign that she doesn't want to see you and has friend-zoned you.

4. Nervous Around You

I'm sure you've been nervous and tongue-tied around her since you started liking her as more than a friend. Can you tell she's a little nervous in your presence? There is probably no sexual tension between you if she is completely relaxed and comfortable.

5. Treat Yourself Any Differently

Being treated like one of the guys means she feels at ease around you and can be herself. Can wear whatever she wants because she knows you're not judging her. You'd notice a difference in her behavior if she wanted to be more than friends.

6. Try to Look Her Best

Is she making an extra effort to impress you? Changing her dressing style when she comes to meet you? or is she just casually hanging around you? She doesn't feel the need to impress you because she treats you like one of the guys. She's fine in sweatpants and a t-shirt and doesn't mind if her hair is tangled.

7. Sets You Up

If she tries to set you up with one of her friends, she is clearly not interested in you. Don't be offended because she's doing you a Favour.

8. Always Share The Big Things

If she only talks about what she feels like sharing, it could also signify that she friend-zoned you. She feels more at ease sharing certain things with one friend than with others. She sees you as a regular friend if she doesn't think to share the big things with you.

9. Hugs Don't Feel Intimate

How a girl hugs you can reveal a lot about how she feels about you. A spiritual hug is brief and involves no physical contact. A sexy intimate hug, on the other hand, is longer, deeper, and involves her entire body pressing against yours. She'll likely rest her head on your chest and completely encircles you.

10. Makes Plans Without You

If she always makes plans without you, it's a sign that she friend-zoned you. She might invite you to group events or include you in activities with her other friends, but she needs to make one-on-one plans with you. This is because she sees you as a spiritual friend and doesn't want to give you the wrong idea.

11. Flirts With Other Guys

Because some people are naturally flirtatious, this does not necessarily imply that she dislikes you. However, if she is constantly flirting with other guys, it does not go well for her future. She would make it clear if she had romantic feelings for you by only flirting with you.

12. Talks About Relationship Problems

Are you her relationship therapist? Suppose she's constantly confiding in you about her relationship problems. She knows you'll listen to her and not judge her, which she needs from a friend.

13. Focuses On Herself

When two people connect romantically, they talk about each other to know themselves better. If she focuses on herself when she's around you, likely, she's not interested in anything more than friendship. She also might need to be more talkative and would rather spend time with other people.

14. Not Jealous

A few key things to consider when determining whether she likes you or friend-zoned you. She likely sees you as a friend and nothing more if she isn't jealous. If you're wondering whether or not a girl likes you or friend-zoned you, there are some signs you can look out for.
