There are many different views on the idea of love.
However if a person is not dating you, if you don't show mutual signs of compassion, or if you have to ask-
then most likley the person doesn't love you but rather is infatuated with you. You can tell by long stares at you, showing signs that they want to talk to you or don't, perhaps they get nervous if they do try and talk with you.
If your in highschool it is most likley just puppy love, a normal part of growing up plus the hormones.
You don't. You could try asking them, but that only tells you what they say.
You could make a pretty good guess by seeing if they act like they love you. But if you're hoping for some magical sign by which you can tell that someone secretly loves you but is too shy to say anything or show it, there's no such thing.
Answer
Usually, their actions towards you will tell you how they feel but not always. Sometimes, a person may try to hide their feelings towards you. It really depends on the individual and what their basic personality is like. It also depends on the ages of the two people involved as that will make a difference too. However, I believe that if a person loves you they will make sure at some point that you know how they feel about you. So, sometimes it just takes time to know for sure.
If you substitute the word "caring" for love, you will reach a better understanding about relationships. For example you can ask yourself whether, if something unfortunate would happen to you, he/she would care. Yes, caring for the welfare of the "loved one" is the ultimate determinant of a worthwhile relationship.

Love is an action. So before he ever tells you he will express his love for you in his actions. Hugging or kissing you, doing sweet things for you etc. Secondly, if you have told him that you love him, if he feels the same he will say it back to you. However, if he does not feel the same, there will be an awkward silence and you may feel uncomfortable, Or he may pretend not to hear you. He might find a good time to let you know that he does not feel like that yet, it all depends.
This may sound crazy, but you can just tell. You know they love you if you have that perfect feeling around them where you feel special around them and they also feel special around you and when they say they love you, you know they mean it.
They will start flirting with you and if the love of your life asks you to go out with one of his mates then it really means he likes you! Also if you and the boy are invited to a party and he asks you if you are going to be there it means that he is only going if you are.
If someone loves you they will flirt. Flirting is a good sign. If it's a boy he may make fun of you or laugh at you or smile all the time and hang around you more often than he should. A girl will usually look at you give you a gift and twirl her hair and smile. A big hint is a love letter now if it's a no namer well u may be out of luck but if it gives hints to who they r like if their in your class you might find them.
Ok...If he treats you nice...and isn't a jerk to you when he is around his friends...and if hes telling you he loves you, listen to how he says it. =]
It's usually easy to tell, and hard to hide. If someone loves you, you should already know.
well i don't!! >:(
Ask them
If someone you loves says I love you, you reply as I love you too...! but if its someone else...you should let the person know about what you feel about him/her.. p
I know what this means. This person probably loves you too and he wants to go out with you. And you truly love him. You probably will be together some day. Good luck!
ask him
talk to Them
When the one you love, already loves somebody else.
Love cannot be tested by questions, since you will never know if a question is answered honestly or dishonestly. Love is shown by actions. A person could say "I would do anything for you, baby" but that does not in itself mean anything. Observe what this person actually does.
The word for a person who loves animals is zoophile. Be careful using it, though, because it can also imply they love animals a little too much, if you know what I'm saying.
Im not too sure, but I know she loves him!
If someone loves you all they want to do is be around you and talk to you constantly. They will do anything to make you happy.
ask that person
If you want know if someone loves you just do a little test to the person. But just don't tell them. Or they will be embarrassed.However, be careful not to test them too much, it might hurt their feelings or make them sense you are being mean.yes i love you !!!
