I have seen this question so many times. So, I went and got some ways of telling.
1. Examine his body language. If he likes you, you will see that his body position will lean forward toward you.
2.Keep close. Ever get the feeling that somebody is "in" your personal space - so much so that you want to step back? If he likes you, and you like him, neither of you will step back.
3.Notice his eye contact. If he likes you, he'll get it and hold it. Again, this can be uncomfortable if you don't like him or vice versa. You'll know if you feel like you have held eye contact just a fraction of a second longer than you would with anyone else, or if he looks away quickly.
4.Be aware of touching. He might put his hand on your arm when he laughs, or not move his leg if it happens to touch yours. This is a very good sign that he likes you.
5.Keep an eye out. His pupils will dilate (get bigger) if he likes you, but this is quite hard to pick up on, and you might look a bit weird looking that closely into his eyes.
6.Watch for him showing interest in things you like and do.
7.Joke freely. Does he laugh, even if you aren't funny?
8.Check for signs of nervousness: nervous laughter, sweaty palms, fidgeting, etc. Unless he's scared of public speaking and is about to make a presentation, it just might be that he's nervous about making an impression on someone he fancies (hopefully you).
9.Smile. A big smile in return probably means the feeling is mutual.
10.See if he always ends up in the same part of the room as you. Perhaps he keeps going out of his way to bump into you.
11.Pay attention to his friends. If they know he's interested in you, they might tease him subtly when you're around, hint to you that he likes you, or even try to find out if you like him. Also study their reactions to your presence. Do they smile? Do they turn to him? If so, then there's a good chance he really does like you.
Just one of these reasons is uasually not enough and can be miss inturpreted. Look for multiple signs.
