So, a girl is giving you more attention on Instagram. Liking your past posts, sliding into your DMs, and commenting flirty emojis on your posts? Sounds like this girl likes you! But how can you know for sure? Keep reading because we’ve compiled a list of signs to tell if a girl likes you on Instagram.

1

She likes your posts immediately.

  1. If she acknowledges your posts super fast, she's paying attention. As your biggest fan, she may even have notifications turned on for whenever you post a picture, on your story, or even go live. If she’s the first person to like and comment on your post the minute it’s uploaded, she may be crushing on you.[1]
    • Send her a friendly DM to let her know you’ve noticed her.[2] Go for an obvious flirt like, “I see you’ve been liking my pics lately. Care to comment?,” or a more mellow, “Hey! Saw you liked my post and want to get to know you better.”

She comments on your recent posts.

  1. She’ll be sure to tell you exactly what she thinks about your selfie. There’s no doubt that if she likes you she’ll be the first to write something on your most recent posts. Maybe she compliments your appearance, gives a witty joke, or lets you know how she feels with a line of emojis.[3] If she likes you, she may comment something like:
    • “The hours at the gym are really paying off🔥”
    • “Wish I was there with you!”
    • “Need another friend to tag along?😏”
    • Do more than like her comments on her posts by sending a thoughtful or flirty reply back! This will let her know she’s also on your radar.

She uses flirty emojis.

  1. A well-placed “😉” might mean she’s into you. Emojis can be a great way to express interest, especially on Insta! Maybe she tags you in a comment with an emoji you can’t help but blush at, or hits that “🔥” on your latest story. One little emoji could mean her comment is a flirt. Here are some flirty emojis she might use if she likes you:[4]
    • 😉: She’s feeling flirty, but wants to make sure you feel the same.
    • 👀: She’s feeling bold and ready to put herself out there to say you look good.
    • 😏: She’s feeling mischievous, and dare we say, a little sexy.
    • 😜: She’s feeling playful and is giving you a sexy wink.
6

She watches all of your stories.

  1. All your content will be her favorite if she likes you. She’ll be the first one to watch your stories the minute you post them—you’ll probably be the first one that shows up in her feed. But she won’t just click past them. She’ll watch every single one and hope she doesn’t miss them when they disappear in 24 hours.
    • Check to see who’s seen your story after you’ve posted on it. You can do this by tapping on your profile image and clicking the “seen by” icon in the bottom left corner.
    • If she’s at the top of the list, she may be waiting eagerly for you to post.

She comments on your stories.

  1. She can relate to everything you say and she’ll let you know it. If you like reposting inspiration quotes, sharing your opinions on the latest episode of your favorite show, or posting funny pics of your dog to your Instagram story, she’ll stop at nothing to comment on them.[5] She won’t just let your stories roll on by—she’ll make sure to stop and tell you what she thinks, sliding right up into your DMs. She may say something like:
    • “OK, but that looks delicious! Maybe you should make me some😏”
    • “Your dog is adorable! How old is he?”
    • “You have the best movie suggestions. Any recommendations?”
    • Reply back with something just as sexy, or take her comment and turn it into a date suggestion. Don’t be afraid to be bold!
