hey everyone and welcome to top think today we're going to learn about
10 signs an introvert likes you now let's begin number one inspirational discussion
introverts are private people they rarely discuss the things near and
dear to them their inspirations for example are well-kept secrets that introverts only expose
to their most trusted confidants their inspirations are core components of who they are
while others may value things they own or people they know introverts cherish their interests
and passions that's why introverts protect their inspirations like valuable heirlooms
but what if an introvert shares their inspirations with you if an introvert discusses their passions
interests and inspirations you're someone that they truly trust someone they see as an important
part of their life if an introvert didn't like you they just keep that knowledge all to themselves
but because they value you and your relationship so highly they're willing to open up they're
willing to expose deeper aspects of their ambitious and passionate personality now don't
take these meaningful discussions for granted no introverts don't talk about their inspirations
with just anyone if they talk to you an introvert likely sees you as more than a friend number two
physical touch introverts need their personal space if you crowd an introvert they're going
to feel uncomfortable and awkward it's rare for an introvert to invite others into their
personal bubble because that personal bubble is their safe space a space they can control
a space they understand so what does it mean when an introvert gets closer to you now this is a big
step for an introverted personality for people who crave personal space physical closeness doesn't
happen very often it's something an introvert reserves for their family and closest friends
if they're closing that personal gap with you they think of you as someone special
physical touch is even more telling not only is this introvert close to you but they're also
creating a physical connection between you now most of the time introverts avoid physical contact
especially with people they don't know like or trust when they initiate physical contact they're
sending you a powerful message they want to be closer to you they're letting you into their
safe personal space and that alone signifies a deeper bond number three total integration
introverts don't share much about their inner lives they keep their thoughts to themselves
they often surprise the people in their life with big life-changing decisions to the rest of
the world these decisions arrive out of nowhere but an introvert is careful and thoughtful with
their choices they simply keep them to themselves with a select few people introverts will share the
details inside their head their thoughts and their worries the good news and the bad news
if you're one of those people then you probably play a huge role in this introvert's life
all right let's take something simple like talking about your day to you it may be natural
to tell people what you liked and didn't like but an introvert doesn't share this information
with the world they reserve the tiny details for a small and trustworthy crowd of people
if you're a part of that crowd this introvert may like you more than a friend number four
expressive messages for many introverts verbal expression is a challenge introverts understand
their emotions and thoughts better than most but they struggle to communicate those ideas out loud
instead introverts use controlled written mediums to get their feelings across
they may send a letter they may write you a long text both of these written messages serve the same
purpose this introvert wants to express their feelings to you in the best way that they can
they want you to understand all the complicated thoughts cycling through their head on a more
basic level a message from an introvert shows you something else this introvert genuinely cares
about you introverts ignore most of the people in the world they're generally unresponsive with
friends and maintain poor communication habits alright let's say for example an introvert texts
you before a job interview wishing you luck or maybe they check in after a long day to ask how
you're feeling now these little messages may be commonplace for an extrovert but they're very
meaningful for an introvert if you didn't matter to them an introvert wouldn't bother reaching out
let alone send a thoughtful message number five creative sharing
introverts are notoriously creative if you know an introvert you may be astounded by the sheer number
of hobbies they maintain it seems like they're interested in and capable of so many things
you can barely wrap your head around it if an introvert likes you they'll try to share their
creative outlets let's say an introvert writes music in their free time they may play you songs
they wrote or even sing in front of you it's not because they want to brag or show off it's
because they want to involve you in the most personal aspects of their lives introverts pour
their thoughts and feelings into their hobbies sharing those hobbies with another person feels
intimate and risky but for the right person an introvert will show just how creative they can be
number six the first approach introverts rarely make the first move they rely on others to make
connections and start conversations sometimes introverts lack the confidence to cross that
boundary at other times they're plenty confident but they simply aren't interested in other people
but what if an introvert approaches you it's really important to understand just
how significant this behavior is for an introvert almost everything on this list
is normal for a more outgoing person it's something they may do without thinking so
an extrovert may not place much meaning behind it but coming from an introvert simple actions take
on a whole new meaning they carry more weight they grow in value and their intention changes
this is one of those times if an introvert approaches you they're not just looking for
small talk they're not playing the field or just having fun they're really interested in
you they're so interested that they defy their own introverted tendencies an introvert may not
be as smooth as an extrovert they may not have much experience starting conversations so it may
be a little awkward but introverts only make the first move when they really really like someone
number 7 menial interest introverts don't like small talk they don't like to talk about
or share all the boring aspects of life for example they'd rather stay silent than talk
to a stranger about the weather but when an introvert is interested in you they'll set
aside their distaste for small talk they'll ask you about small unimportant things and they'll
show an interest in these trivial subjects why is that because they want to know more about you
they want to understand more about your life if an introvert wants to talk about everyday nonsense
you may be their special someone number eight initiating calls introverts don't spend much
time on the phone as we discussed earlier they prefer written mediums like texting
but if an introvert treasures someone they'll break out of their comfort zone they won't
just accept your phone calls they'll initiate phone calls on their own that's a tell-tale
sign that an introvert likes you as more than a friend otherwise they wouldn't bother calling
number nine emotional exposure introverts can be tough eggs to crack it takes a long time to
truly understand how they're feeling or get them to share their emotions with you sometimes you
never get there introverts may hide their emotions from even their closest friends to an introvert
it's dangerous and nerve-wracking to expose your vulnerabilities but there are rare exceptions if
an introvert trusts and values you they may tell you things they don't tell anyone else
when an introvert opens up it may feel like you're a sounding board for their feelings and ideas
they may use you to talk themselves in and out of decisions it's almost like they're having a
conversation with themselves you just happen to be in the room now don't take this as a bad sign
they're disinterested or self-absorbed this is a very normal habit for introverts despite how
it feels this habit shows evidence of a deeper connection introverts use only their closest
friends as sounding boards because these are the only people they feel comfortable expressing their
thoughts around in other words be a sounding board for your introvert let your introvert bounce ideas
off of you because that stream of consciousness displays a greater level of trust and comfort
number 10 subtle affections who's more affectionate and introverts or an extroverts many
people think extroverts are more affectionate but that's not always the case in fact introverts can
be extremely affectionate they're just picky in the beginning an introvert may not express their
feelings they may not show any interest in you you may find yourself wondering if they actually like
you you look for signs you fish for hints but you come up empty does that mean this introvert
doesn't like you not necessarily it takes time for an introvert to start expressing their feelings
at first they'll display their affections in small ways little touches thoughtful gestures words of
affirmation in the early stages these small signs speak volumes about how an introvert really feels
they rarely express those feelings in words but those small expressions represent bigger
internal ideas in other words introverts feel a lot stronger than they let on sure they may
seem indifferent but those tiny affections mean the world to them over time they'll get better
and more expressive but for now take any kind of affection as a good sign hey thank you for
