Many people are hesitant about the online dating world as they are worried that the people, or person, they are talking to is not serious or even real. This is a risk worth taking, as you can never be sure how the person at the other end of the chat is feeling or what they are thinking. Below are a few ways you can spot if the person you are talking to online is genuinely interested in you.
★ Quick responses (usually) — if they are genuinely interested in you they will not make you wait for a response. This is not to say they respond immediately but they won’t make you wait for days, more like minutes or a couple of hours. If this is not possible, and they like you, they will let you know they are busy. If they genuinely like you they will look forward to talking to you and won’t leave you in the dark!
★ Their use of emojis can also be a sign of genuine interest. Over time their use of emojis will become more personal and you will notice this. If they are not interested they will either not use them or it will become clear they only use the same ones.
★ Paying close attention to what you say is another sure-fire sign that they are genuinely interested. You may become excited and bombard them with a series of messages. You will know if they are interested or not based on their response. If they reply to each of your messages in a way that keeps the conversation flowing then this is a sign they want to know about you and like talking to you. If they reply with their own statements or questions, completely unrelated to yours then they are not interested.
★ The will respect your platform of choice. Once you have established a connection you may decide to move away from the app or site to more personal connections. Whether you choose texts, calls, facetime, etc they will respect this if they genuinely like you. However, this is a case of giving and take. You too will have to respect their choice of platform. These are just a few signs that your online date is genuinely interested in you. Most people trust their instincts so listen to your heart!
