I&#8217;ve posted blogs about\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.beliefnet.com\/columnists\/makeyourrelationshipwork\/2018\/05\/4-simple-steps-attracting-handsome-man-without-saying-word.html\">signs if he is cheating<\/a>,\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.beliefnet.com\/columnists\/makeyourrelationshipwork\/2018\/07\/13-signs-guy-isnt-interested.html\">signs that he&#8217;s not into you<\/a>,\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.beliefnet.com\/columnists\/makeyourrelationshipwork\/2018\/09\/five-signs-youre-back-pocket-girl.html\">signs you\u2019re his \u2018Back Pocket Girl\u2019<\/a> and everything in-between. I do this because these posts are all about behavior, and a person&#8217;s actions are the most trustworthy thing about him. Also, you ask many questions about guys&#8217; behavior&#8211;if he does this, does it mean that?&#8211;so it&#8217;s an enduring hot topic. That&#8217;s why I&#8217;m writing about it again.<\/p>\n<p>If you suspect that a guy isn&#8217;t into you, here are five behaviors that prove you are right.<\/p>\n<h3>1. He doesn&#8217;t ask you out<\/h3>\n<p>&#8220;No shit, McNeal!&#8221; Yeah, I know, but I get a question like this almost daily: &#8220;Three months ago he said he liked me and wanted to take me out but he hasn&#8217;t called. Is he not into me?&#8221; Some of you want to believe that there are other reasons that a guy doesn&#8217;t call: he&#8217;s busy or he forgot or he got picked up on an outstanding warrant. But there&#8217;s only one reason: he&#8217;s not into you. A guy who wants to go out with you will ask you out. Period. If he hasn&#8217;t asked you out, he&#8217;s not into you.<\/p>\n<h3>2. He talks about another woman constantly<\/h3>\n<p>His ex. His bff. His mom. That new girl in class, what&#8217;s her name again? We talk about what&#8217;s important to us. If he&#8217;s with you but he&#8217;s always talking about some other woman, he&#8217;s into her, not you.<\/p>\n<h3>3. He shows little interest in getting to know you<\/h3>\n<p>A guy who is into you wants to find out who you are. He asks about your life, your family, your childhood, what makes you happy, what&#8217;s bugging you, what you&#8217;re doing this weekend. He listens when you talk and remembers the important stuff. If all he ever cares about is when you two can get horizontal again, he&#8217;s not into you. You can&#8217;t f**k your way into his heart.<\/p>\n<h3>4. He makes excuses for his lack of interest<\/h3>\n<p>&#8220;I&#8217;m not relationship material.&#8221; &#8220;You deserve someone better.&#8221; &#8220;I&#8217;m still hurting from my last breakup.&#8221; &#8220;It&#8217;s bad timing.&#8221; &#8220;I&#8217;ve got a lot going on in my life.&#8221; &#8220;I need a break.&#8221; These excuses and hundreds like them mean only one thing: he&#8217;s not into you. This is how a guy can tell you he&#8217;s not ready for a relationship, then two weeks later he&#8217;s dating someone else. He was ready for a relationship, just not with you.<\/p>\n<h3>5. He says, &#8220;You&#8217;re like a sister to me.&#8221;<\/h3>\n<p>It&#8217;s a compliment, but if you&#8217;re hoping for a romantic relationship, these words mean it&#8217;s never going to happen. He cares about you, but not in the way you want.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;ve said it before, and it bears repeating: when the words and actions don&#8217;t match, believe the actions. If a guy is into you, you&#8217;ll know it. If he&#8217;s not, you&#8217;ll know that, too. The trick is having the guts and good sense to believe it.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I talk about signs a lot here on Beliefnet.
