How To Know If A Butch Likes You 2

Due to popular demand, right out of the mouths and emails from friends, acquaintances, and perfect strangers, here is how a butch or stone butch lets a femme know she is into her:

- Making eye contact OR not making eye contact

- Smiling a lot when she is around her

- Introducing herself to the femme if they don’t know each other yet

- Staying nearby and sneak peeking at the femme OR staying in the background and observing her from a distance

- Complimenting her without making it too obvious

- Touching her in a non sexual way – something small and almost unnoticeable like touching her arm, holding her hand, touching her hair when you help her take off or put her coat back on.

- Listening to what she says and making sure the femme knows she’s paying attention

- Telling a few jokes to find out if the femme enjoys her company and sense of humor

- Finding out her favorite mode of communication (chat, text, call, Skype) because she plans to communicate via that mode

- “Just because” text messages and phone calls

- Burning her a CD or downloading a playlist to her iPod

- Interacting with her friends to find out where the femme will be – this specific butch said she wants to know everything about a femme and everywhere she is going which, mmm, is kind of borderline stalking in my book.

- Asking one of the femme’s friends if she thinks the femme is into her – I do not recommend doing this for two reasons: (a) the femme’s friend may like the butch for herself or may not even be a real friend (b) the femme may not want to be with a butch who acts as if she were in high school (i.e. grow some balls!).

- Finding out common hobbies or pastimes so that she can plan ahead and ask the femme out on a date

- Making plans to go somewhere – something casual like a coffee date – to get to know her a little better before asking her out on a date (and that’s where this other butch lost me!)

- Making plans to go out with a group of butches and femmes so that she can observe the femme without the pressure of being on an official date

- Being extra careful to make sure she never embarrasses the femme in front of her friends, relatives or colleagues.

- Buying her drinks or dinner, flowers, or something she mentioned to show her she was paying attention

- Flirting openly
