Passionate and impulsive, men born under fiery Aries of the zodiac tend to be very open about their feelings for people they’re interested in. That being said, clues that might be obvious to them aren’t always easy for other people to decipher! To help you out, we’ve put together a list of surefire signals that tell you if an Aries man likes you.

Method 1

Method 1 of 13:
He wants to be around you all the time.

1
A go-getter Aries won’t be shy about wanting to spend time with you. Guys of other signs might be afraid of coming on too strong about wanting to hang out, but not Aries. If the Aries guy in your life texts you things like “What are you doing right now? Can I join you?” take it as an indication that he really likes you.^{[1]

- To some people, this can come across as a lack of boundaries. He probably doesn’t see things this way: this is just him being upfront about his feelings!

Method 2

Method 2 of 13:
He gives you lots of compliments.

1
Aries men love being on both sides of flattery. You may have heard that Aries are cocky and love receiving praise. What you might not know is they love giving praise just as much!^{[2]

- Aries men are generally very genuine and honest with their feelings. If he gives you a compliment, he probably really means it!

Method 3

Method 3 of 13:
He tries to impress you.

1
Expect some competitive fire from a courting Aries. If your Aries acts like a show-off sometimes, it’s because he’s trying to impress you! This might make him seem a bit cocky and full of himself at times, but he really just wants to make sure you think he’s worthy of your attention.^{[3]

- Don’t be surprised if he’s planning on making the moment he tells you how he really feels about you a big deal. Aries men love extravagant romantic gestures.

Method 4

Method 4 of 13:
He likes being your knight in shining armor.

1
Whenever you ask for help, he’s there. Aries men love intensely. So intensely that they’re willing to drop anything and everything to help someone they really care about, regardless of the inconvenience it is for them.^{[4]

- Gives you rides.
- Brings you food.
- Lets you wear his jacket.
- Opens doors for you.
- Carries things for you.
- Pays for you.

Method 5

Method 5 of 13:
He introduces you to his friends.

1
You might suddenly find yourself in his inner circle. Though it may seem quick to other signs, an Aries will make an effort to integrate you into their life the moment he’s interested in you. If he already wants you to go with him to parties and gatherings he’s invited to, he probably wants to show off what an awesome person you are to all his friends!^{[5]

- Chances are, he’s already told everyone in his life all about you before you even meet them.
- It might feel like things are moving really fast: you meet him one day, and a few days later you’ve met all his closest friends. That’s an Aries for you!

Method 6

Method 6 of 13:
He flirts with you.

1
Notice if there’s any tension between you two. Aries men are bold: they don’t try to hide or hold back anything they feel.^{[6]
X
Research source} Take note of what he says to you, or how he looks at you. His feelings for you are probably right there, hiding in plain sight. Some examples of things to look out for:
- He makes dirty jokes around you.
- He stands super close to you while talking.
- He subtly flexes his muscles or shows his skin so you can see.
- He stares at you with a playful, intense fire in his eyes.

Method 7

Method 7 of 13:
He’s touchy with you.

1
Aries are bold enough to not think twice about PDA. Other signs might shy away from physical affection, but not Aries. If the Aries man in your life gives you a hug the minute you walk into a room, or touches your arms and shoulders a lot while you’re talking, he’s probably giving you a not-so-subtle hint that he likes you.^{[7]

- Aries aren’t afraid of being “obvious” by flirting like this.
- Don’t be nervous about telling him you don’t like something he’s doing. It might hurt his pride in the moment, but it could also get him to verbally discuss his feelings for you.

Method 8

Method 8 of 13:
He gets jealous of other people you’re close with.

1
Keep an eye out for a little possessiveness. Aries are driven: they know what they want, and they won’t let anything stand in their way of their desires. This can lead to your Aries man being a little competitive with people who might threaten his connection to you, especially other men!^{[8]

- This stems from his complete and utter dedication to you. He wants to be the most important person in your life.
- He might start unnecessary arguments with people he feels threatened by, but in his eyes, he’s being protective.
- Don’t be scared off by this: you can always bring up your ability to stand up for yourself later in your relationship.

Method 9

Method 9 of 13:
He listens to what you have to say.

1
A hyperactive Aries won’t sit still for just anyone. If he really likes you, you’ll know by how attentive he is when you tell him your thoughts and feelings. Aries enjoy both giving and receiving undivided attention and support with people they really care about.^{[9]

- A focused Aries man will work hard to remember every little detail they can about you.
- You’ve probably realized that your Aries man can talk a lot. Don’t be afraid to do the same! If he really likes you, he’ll be super invested in what you have to say.

Don’t believe the stereotypes that Aries are totally self-centered. There is some truth to Aries being self-motivated.

- Try bringing up a story about a friend or family member that you know you’ve told him before. See if he remembers you talking about it before.

He’s an open book to you.

An Aries isn’t secretive about his thoughts and feelings. If your Aries man talks to you about himself a lot, it’s not necessarily because he’s self-centered. Oversharing is just one way an Aries shows you that he trusts you and wants to be emotionally honest with you.^{[14]

Aries men aren’t known for being discreet. The surest way to tell if an Aries guy is into you is if he tells you. This might seem obvious, but you should know that when an Aries tells you, he really means it! Aries men don’t like playing mind games.^{[15]
