Are you unable to stop thinking about someone’s face? Do you sense the butterflies dancing in your stomach when you see them, and shy laughter automatically spreads on your face when they’re around? 

Congratulations, my dear friend, you’ve found your new crush!

So, what’s stopping you from taking a step further? Who knows, they might like you too! 

Oh wait, you have started liking an introvert, right? That’s why you are here. 

Yes, it isn’t easy to read introverts because they dwell in their own world and don’t open up easily. Then, how do you guess if they’re crushing on you, too? Don’t worry, I’m not going to disappoint you. 

Few hints can help you understand what’s on their mind. Here, I’ll take you through 10 obvious signs an introvert likes you. 

The Story of My Friend

My dear, you know how much I love sharing my stories with you, which gives you a practical reason to believe in the signs. This one isn’t going to be an exception, either. 

How so? Well, I will tell the story of my college friends, “Sheetal” and “Akash.” The latter was an introvert who fell for my friend. So, how did she unveil the hints that he dropped? 

You’ll know it through the article. So, keep reading!

Quiet Hearts Speak Loudest: 10 Telltale Signs an Introvert Likes You

Comprehending an introvert is a challenging task. But hey, you have had the guts to fall for one! Now, it’s time to keep the difficulties away and look for hints that tell you they’re into you, too. 

I’m not asking you to go desperate. Just keep your eyes open and observe their actions. It’ll tell you a lot about how they feel about you. 

Okay, can’t keep up with your excitement to read the signs? I’m dying to tell you, too. 

Let’s start!

1. They Open Up to You. 

As introverts live in their own world, they can’t open up about themselves to anyone and everyone. They are very selective on this front. So, if you find them opening up to you, note it as their interest. 

It’s again something I witnessed in Sheetal’s case. She would tell me how Akash tells her many things about himself, his hobbies, career choices, etc. I would be surprised to hear this because no one in our class has seen Akash speak so much! 

Later, as they got together, we understood it was his way of expressing affection. He was comfortable with Sheetal and found solace in her company. 

So, my friend, does the introverted person open up to you and share details that they hardly communicate with anyone else?

If yes, congo! You are melting the ice slowly. 

2. He Seeks the Opportunity to Speak to You Alone. 

It’s unusual for an introvert to open up in a group of people. Even if they like you, they will refrain from speaking to you in front of everyone. Then, how do you spot their interest? 

They’ll look for opportunities to speak with you when no one’s around. Not with any sneaky intention, of course, but to get to know you. 

I saw something similar between my friends “Sheetal” and “Akash” during my college days.

Sheetal liked him from the beginning, but Akash, being an introvert, it was difficult for her to understand his mind. Akash would often initiate a chat with her when she was walking or sitting alone. 

She once told me, “Akash seems to be an introvert, but he speaks to me often, especially with no one around.” 

To this, I replied, “Who knows, maybe he likes you!” 

We laughed at this, but little did we know our guess was correct then! 

Hence, the key takeaway is that if you find that introverted person grabbing opportunities to even chit-chat with you, something might be cooking! 

3. They Show You Polite Gestures. 

One of the other obvious signs that an introvert likes you is when they show you polite gestures. You might not notice it usually, but keen observation can help you crack the code. 

Okay, let me elaborate on it. 

Do you see any difference between how that introverted person treats others and you? Like including a “thank you” or “sorry” in their speech while talking to you, being the first to offer help in an entire room if you face a problem, listening to you carefully when you’re speaking, and so on. 

They might not be equally interested in others, but the dice turns when it comes to you. You can find them being extra careful about you. If that’s the case, I’m pleased to inform you, my friend, that they are crushing on you too! 

Trust me when I say this, as it was again something Sheetal experienced. As they look back to those days, they cherish every moment. 

4. They Engage in Your Social Media.

The other way to spot one of the sure signs an introvert likes you is through social media. 

Here’s the thing: They find it challenging to communicate with you when so many people are around. So what? They’ll take the social media route then. 

Most introverts aren’t usually social media freaks. But, if they take the time to react to your photo or even drop a comment, something is undoubtedly on their mind. 

Think this way. An introvert who rarely speaks with people around reacts with ‘heart’ in each of your photos. Why will he bother? Because he likes you! 

So, my question is, Did the same happen when you changed your profile picture and the notification showed “Sam reacted to your photo?” Was there a cute comment as a bonus? 

If yes, that’s amazing! They also feel the butterflies when thinking of you. 

5. Their Body Language Shows It. 

Introverts might not be great with words, but their body language can tell if they’re into you! So keep an eye on their body language, which will reveal many things. 

You’ll see them leaning towards you when you’re talking, or they might initiate a light touch on your hand. 

You can also spot them making eye contact with you. Or when you’re speaking, you’ll see thoughtfulness in their eyes as they listen attentively. 

With this body language, they hint at their interest in you. 

I swear, Sheetal and Akash’s case was no exception. Akash was always quite meaningful with his body gestures when Sheetal was around, be it throwing her a warm smile, making calm eye contact, or soft hugging during bidding goodbyes. 

So, if you find the same with the introverted person, note it as one of the prominent signs an introvert secretly likes you. 

6. They Are Ready to Go Out of Their Comfort Zone. 

Introverts going out of their comfort zone? Not something that you hear often! They are happy with their own little space. But what if they are ready to go beyond their usual ways suddenly? 

Okay, let me tell you clearly. The introvert who likes you might appear when you least expect them at a social gathering. The perfect add-on? They compliment your dress or look. 

Or, you might be at the club and bump into each other. What would someone do in a packed club they were least interested in? Are you just coincidentally running into each other? 

Well, I don’t think so. They are turning up in unexpected events to have a glimpse of you. 

You miss an event, and I bet you hear they weren’t there, too. Again, a coincidence? 

C’mon, my dear, it’ll be too silly to think that. 

Something similar used to happen with Sheetal and Akash. Initially, Akash would avoid the friend outings, but with time, he started showing up in a cafe or a movie. He would speak a little but would ensure he was present. 

So, if you find your ‘introvert’ crush doing the exact things, mark my words; they’re crushing on you too! 

7. They Might Make the First Move.

As I said earlier, it’s always challenging for introverts to open up to anyone. Besides sharing their hobbies and interests, if they start making a move to take things further with you, that’s a clear sign they like you. 

They might invite you to hang out together or hit the nearest coffee shop from the college. They will start being more comfortable with you. 

Long thing short: they’ll be an open book to you and make the moves to ensure you know what’s on their mind.   

What made them do so? Maybe they found peace in you and want to make you a part of their lives. Sheetal and Akash’s case was no exception. 

Quick question. Has anything as such happened? Does the introverted person invite you into their personal space and talk their heart out? Do you see them making a move to spend more time with you? 

If yes, that’s a beautiful sign that you have won their heart.

8. They Pay Attention to Detail.

Another sign an introvert like you is when they pay attention to every little detail about you. 

Like, the previous day, you might be admiring a sunflower; the next day, you can find one on your desk. Or, you might be into anime and carry a thematic backpack. They might gift you your favorite anime drawing or sticker. 

So, the main thing is that they’ll notice the little things about you and hint at their admiration through their actions. 

Once, Sheetal bought a chocolate ice cream outside the college gate, but mistakenly, it fell from her hand. Unfortunately, that was the last one in the lot for that day. 

The next day, unexpectedly, Akash came up with a chocolate cone and requested Sheetal to have it. We never knew before that he noticed the incident. Sounds filmy? But it exactly happened this way. 

So my friend, if you see that introverted person having a keen eye for details about you, that’s another hint that they’re into you.  

9. They Will Stay in Touch. 

One of the other invaluable signs an introvert likes you is when they keep in touch no matter the distance or time. 

It might be a winter vacation in your college or a festive week in the office. In between, they will find ways to keep in touch with you via texts, calls, or WhatsApp. 

So, when everyone is busy enjoying the vacation, why does the ‘introvert’ have to keep the connection with you? Why do they text you to ask how you have been doing or your plans for the day? 

Just a friendly gesture? Probably not! 

If they take the time to check up on you, even during holidays, they are probably crushing hard on you. 

10. You Have a Strong Gut Feeling. 

Yes, I understand when it comes to love, most of us get dumb. We even miss the most prominent hints out of excitement. But can you ignore the gut feeling?

So many things are happening together. They are opening up to you, looking for ways to spend time with you, paying attention to your details. Now, your heart firmly tells you something is happening on their end. 

Should you believe it? Of course! 

I agree you can only be entirely sure once they confess it alone. But that’s why clues are for! Their gestures hint at something romantic, and you strongly feel it is true. 

When your heart is behaving this way, there has to be something! The day might not be far from when they admit their feelings to you.

Through all the hints “Akash” dropped, Sheetal strongly felt he liked her. She wasn’t sure, but deep down, I also started believing it (being her best friend, I knew most of the things). It was not too late that Akash proved us right by writing a love letter to Sheetal. 

How amazing! Isn’t it?

Question yourself. Does it feel like the person in you? Does your heart implore you to listen to it? If yes, don’t hesitate to believe it. 

Wrapping Up

That’s all, my dear, about the prominent signs an introvert likes you. 

It may not be easy to gauge what’s happening inside them, but these little gestures can confirm something positive for you. 

I know someone was there in your mind while you read the post. So, did you find their actions similar to the ones mentioned here? If yes, you know what it hints at!
