It is not very challenging to know if a guy has been thinking about you if you keenly notice his behavior towards you. You do not necessarily have to wait for him to state it directly to know if he thinks about you often if you notice some signs.  Here are some signs to notice if a guy has been thinking about you: He appreciates your presence in his life, physical and virtual. He does not shy away from stating it to you.  He mentions that he looks forward to meeting you or was excited to know what you would think about something he is interested in.  He puts efforts into planning activities that you both can enjoy together. Whenever he plans simple things like a movie to watch, he always makes sure it is something you would appreciate too. This shows he keeps your likes and interests in mind while deciding things for the both of you.  He mentions that he thinks about you randomly during the day or how nice it would be if you were next to him during an important or difficult event. He shares events or daily happenings in his life immediately with you. It is almost like you are the first person on his mind when he has some news to share.  Strange but cute things like a song or a movie/show character or a painting remind him of you.
