If he says things like "You look great," or "Your dress is awesome," there's a good chance he likes you. He may compliment your appearance or personality. Pay attention to how often and what he compliments to get a sense of when to ask him out. For example, if you are in the same class, he may say "Wow, you're so smart," after you tell him the grade of your last exam. If he often quotes things you've said in the past, he likely enjoys talking to you. Notice if he brings up a story you told before, a fun fact about you, or something about your family or friends. These are all signs that he is really listening. For example, he may ask you if you saw the latest sports game for your favorite team. He may also ask questions to get to know you better. For instance, if you mention you have a brother, he may ask if you have other siblings. If he makes a comment about your new haircut, outfit, or makeup, this suggests he looks at you often and may like you too. Since he's noticed all of your features, he'll surely notice when you tweak something or make an upgrade. For instance, he may say "I really like your new shoes," or "Hey, since when do you wear purple lipstick?" Over time, he may seem interested in your favorite TV show, movie, or band. If he asks you what you think of the new Red Hot Chili Peppers' CD or if you watched the latest episode of The Office, he may be trying to connect with you. For instance, if you tell him that Doctor Who is your favorite show and a few weeks later he starts talking about an episode, he may have a crush on you. If he sends you a "what's up?" text multiple times a week, he likely wants to chat with you and connect deeper. He may like your social media posts, send you messages, or tag you in funny comments. If he calls you on the phone, chances are he's into you. For example, he may send you a funny picture, interesting video, or neat article. Guys often flirt by teasing, such as calling you a nickname or giving you a hard time. If he does things make fun of a silly thing you said, he probably likes you. For example, he may mock your tone of voice, inflection, or accent. He also may point out little details, like a stain on your shirt or how you often bite your lip when nervous. Notice if he flirts or teases with lots of other people. If so, this may not be a fool-proof sign. If he likes you, he'll likely talk about himself when he can. He may brag about himself as a way to impress you or tell you personal stories to keep you interested. If he makes it a point to add personal information to the conversation or tell you his thoughts or opinions, there's a good chance he's interested. For example, if he regularly tells you about his upcoming football games, he may want you to show up and watch. If a guy likes you, he may tell his friends, and they may heckle him over his feelings. If you notice his friends smiling at him, winking at you, or giving him a hard time, he may have confessed his feelings about you. For instance, his friends might start making kissing sounds when they notice him talking to you in the hallway. When you're in a group at school, an event, or at work, note his reaction when taking all together. If he says something and looks at you first, the aim of his story or joke was to get you to notice him. If this is the case, there's a high probability he likes you. For example, perhaps you are chatting with a few friends at your locker in between class. After your crush tells everyone about his weekend plans, if he looks at you right away, he may want you to say something back.

Work with a helper so you can carry heavy pieces of furniture into a different room. Then take out any accessories that are near or on the floor, such as vent covers or rugs, so you can rip up the carpet. Take down any long curtains so they don't get in the way while you work. Dirt and dust can get in the way when it's time to sand your floors. Before you pull up the old carpet, go over the entire carpet thoroughly with your vacuum to get rid of any dirt. Vacuum the area 1-2 times to get the most dirt out of the carpet so it doesn't transfer to a different room. You can start in any corner of your room. Pry up the edge of the carpet with a pry bar so you have a handhold. Then slowly pull up the carpet, moving to the center of the room. Once you've pulled all the corners out, roll up the carpet so you can remove it easily. To make things easier, use a razor knife to cut through the carpet so you can remove it in sections. Wear work gloves if you want to get a better grip. Start in one of the corners of your room and lift the edge of the carpet pad with a pry bar. Grab the edge of the pad and slowly pull it back toward the center of the room. Don't move too fast since the carpet pad could rip and make it more difficult to move in one piece. Once the pad is lifted, roll it up and take it out of the room. Some of the carpet pad may come up with carpet depending on how old it is. Look for staples in your floor since they might have held the carpet pad down. Pry the staples out of the floor with the back of a claw hammer. To remove tack strips, place the flat edge of a pry bar near one of the nails in the board. Hit the end of the pry bar with a hammer to lift up the board. Pull each nail out of the floor so you can remove the tack strip in one piece. Tack strips have nails that point up, so stand back while you're prying the boards in case they break and watch where you grab them. Check the color of the adhesive under your carpet if there is any. If it's yellow, use a plastic scraper or a chisel to break it apart. If the adhesive on the floor is dark brown or tan, scrub the floor with cleaning rags and an adhesive remover, such as mineral spirits. If there's any residue left from the adhesive, then use a general purpose adhesive cleaner to remove it. Adhesive remover is flammable, so make sure any sources of sparks or fire are removed. Using a razor knife, score the top edge of the baseboards where they meet the wall. Beginning at a corner, place a pry bar between the baseboard and the wall, then slowly pull forward. Then move 1218 inches (3046cm) along the baseboard and pry it again. Once the board is loose, pull it off the wall in one long piece. Continue removing the rest of the baseboards in the room.
