does talking mean you like someone?

like legit?

ive never thought someone talking to me must me they like me/want to get to know me as more than a friend. but it seems a lot of people think this....

without sounding rude, why do people think this?

i mean talking casually, as in hey how are you. not obvious signs of 'hi i like you'....
is it a case of i like him and he is talking to me so he must like me too? i am confused and get accused of this sometimes, because i talk to everyone! didnt realise talking to someone was leading them on :s

 

Nope. But there are different people so who would know...

 

No, we live in a world where people talk to each other, it won't be seen as an unusual sign of affection to talk to people.

 

Not really

 

i must just know some really odd people then....

 

No, I talk to a lot of people, and wanting to get to know them further, but that doesn't mean I mean attracted to them. Some might be for business purposes, others because they're simply cool. If you like someone, you'll be completely different in a sense that you'll clearly know.

 

Nope. What on earth do friends do, if not talk?

 

Depends.

By talking if you mean casually with a seemingly subtle interest, then yes that's possible. Others that accuse you of this may see that you display nonverbal behaviors that make them assume you like them.

Someone accused me of liking them just because I talked to them a lot and because I always smiled whenever they we're around, but of course that wasn't the case, I just enjoyed their presence and was just friendly.

But by just merely talking to someone doesn't always mean you like them.

 

I don't think so. I think you might find one of their interests. Like, if I find that another one on here speaks Portuguese, then I can strike up a conversation talking about how they know Portuguese, how he/she learned it, etc. That doesn't mean in any way that I like them more than just a friend.

 

You're not alone...I've heard this before. I'm not too sure the origins of like "Oh my god...you're talk to this boy/girl, do you like him/her? But it's quite odd. But...most likely, it depends the extent of the conversation.

 

I never thought that either, but my mom gets excited when she sees me talking to a guy , she thinks we're together and she'll always say I'll leave you two alone.:dry:
I usually avoid girls I like and I come off mean

 

I couldn't say either yes or no.

If you are just talking to someone, or someone is just talking to you, and there is no nervousness, fidgety aspect, or intense eye contact, then it means nothing.

If there is some type of nervous energy or other more intense energy, then yes.

 

No, the only exception would be if you tried to talk to them out of nowhere, for a while, often, seemed VERY interested in what they say and basically find reasons to talk to them. Otherwise, it's pretty safe to assume it's casual and platonic talking.

 

Circumstance is everything. I have a friend who met a guy at a bar, talked to him all night, and then was surprised and offended when he tried to kiss her.

 

Nope, some people I guess who aren't as social may think so.

One guy at work is convinced I like this other girl because I'm always talking to her, but I'm gay, so definitely not.

I'll talk to anyone I feel actually wants to talk to me, I hate it when people force conversation that I can tell they don't wanna be in. If you don't wanna talk to me, you really don't need to pretend to.

 

I mean not all the time. Like I can talk to Kate not because I like her but I'm just trying to avoid someone who wants to talk to me.

 

It shouldn't be viewed as you being interested in more than friends just because you care about them to ask how they are and keep up to date with what they are doing does not mean you like them in that way. I think talking should be seen as a casual thing that can happen with anyone and everyone.

 

It depends, but usually no.

 

Not necessarily.

 

Nope. Actually, with me it's if I talk with everyone, but not you, it's a sign I might like you. : DD
