Are you wondering if a girl’s feelings for you are real?

Maybe there’s something in the way she’s acting that makes you think she’s just pretending to love you.

But how do you know if a girl is keeping you around? What signs do you need to look for?

In this article, we will reveal to you everything you need to know.

How do you know if a girl is pretending to love you?

1) She acts moody and distant
Her mood and behavior, when you’re together, are a good indicator of how she feels.

Sure, we all have bad days. But most of the time we should be happy to spend time with our partners.

You expect her to be warm, smiling, and in a good mood when she sees you.

But if she is constantly sullen, withdrawn, or even bored – this is a bad sign.

If she seems uninterested when you’re alone, it sounds like her feelings may not be real.

2) You’re always chasing her
I saw a meme the other day that read:

“Who forgets to text someone they care about?

Nobody, that is.”

And this is true.

Although it may take a little effort to achieve this in the early stages of dating, if she likes you, there is no need to chase her.

If you feel like you are the one who is trying hard and hardly doing anything, this indicates that she is less interested in you than you are in her.

It shouldn’t always be up to you to make plans to see each other or call or text first. You should both put in the same amount of effort. If she hadn’t, maybe her feelings wouldn’t have been so strong.

3) She always has excuses as to why she needs to cancel plans with you
Life is all about priorities. The people and things in our lives that we care about most, we devote the most time to.

There will be occasions when something else important comes up, so it is reasonable to cancel the appointment.

But if she’s full of excuses for why she can’t see you, or often changes her plans at the last minute, it shows that she doesn’t respect your time.

It also highlights that you are at the bottom of her list of priorities, which is why it is a strong sign that she is faking her feelings.

After all, actions speak louder than words, and if she likes you, she’ll want to make the effort to see you.

4) She doesn’t seem interested in what she has to say
Pay attention to the little things you tell her.

Do you know things about yourself? Do you remember the stories you told her and the details of your life?

If she “forgets” things you say to her, she’s not paying attention to what you’re saying, which indicates she’s not listening to you.

This is especially true if she starts interrupting you mid-sentence.

She’s too busy thinking about herself to pay attention to what she’s saying. It’s a clear sign that her feelings may not be so deep.

5) She never compliments you
Compliments are great. They help us feel appreciated and loved. They show us that others think highly of us.

You don’t have to shower your partner with compliments, but we all want to know that our other interests are important.

It could be a comment on your appearance, something you’re wearing, or even a personality trait or skill you have.

If she rarely says nice things about you, it’s suspicious. You may wonder if she’s noticed your best qualities.

Especially if you always compliment her, but she never reciprocates, this tells you that she doesn’t respect you as much as you respect her.

Maybe she doesn’t even appreciate being with you as much as you can be with her.

6) You only say “I love you” if you say it first
Did she just say “I love you” in response to you saying those three little words?

Maybe you should ask her if she loves you too.

If she rarely tells you that she loves you or only tells you after you tell her first, it may mean that she feels obligated to say it but doesn’t mean it.

Her feelings may not be as strong as yours but she wants to keep you happy.

If she seems to be avoiding talking about her feelings for you, she’s probably hiding something about the way she feels.

7) She doesn’t want to spend quality time with you
Quality time means spending more time doing activities together rather than just spending time at home watching TV.

Do you want to spend time doing fun things with you? Do you go on dates? Going out to dinner? Or do you stay at home and watch movies?

Does she seem to enjoy spending time with you?

If she does a lot of things with her friends and other people, but only wants to fit in with you when she has nothing to do, this looks like a relationship built on comfort instead of love.

8) You never know what’s going on in her head
Your partner should be one of the closest people in your life.

They are the people you trust, turn to for advice, and talk to about all the things in your life, big and small.

If you’ve always wondered what exactly is going on in her head, it looks like she’s not letting you in.

She does not share her deepest thoughts and feelings with you. You would expect her to do this if she had real feelings for you.

9) She constantly talks about her ex-husband
It’s a red flag if she’s constantly talking to you about her past relationships.

When you meet someone new, it’s natural to talk about yourself, and this may include mentioning your past relationships from time to time.

However, if she spends more time talking about your ex than your own, this shows you where she stands.

Constantly talking about your ex indicates that she may never get over him. If her ex is still on her mind, she doesn’t seem to be focusing on her current relationship with you.

10) You don’t want to make it official
She says she has strong feelings for you but doesn’t want to put any labels on the relationship.

If she’s not keen on becoming your friend, it seems like she’s not committed. If she’s not ready to commit to you exclusively, it indicates that she may not feel like this is a long-term thing.

She’s keeping her options open before deciding whether or not to take the next step.

11) You try to hide your relationship from others
When we are with someone, we should feel proud to have them by our side.

If she doesn’t want people to know you’re together then she’s trying to hide the relationship.

You have to ask yourself why.

Why doesn’t she want her friends or family to know about you?

Maybe you avoid public displays of affection, and when you go out together you act as if you’re just friends.

The logical answer is that she wants to keep her options open and isn’t quite as invested in the relationship as she should be.

12) She keeps secrets from you
This could also be a sign that she’s not ready to get serious.

Secrets are something that should be shared between two people who are truly in love.

If she’s hiding things from you, you probably feel that way.

Maybe she is very protective of her phone and never wants to see the messages she receives from other people. Maybe you disappear for a while and have no idea what you’re up to.

It may mean that she has something to hide, or that she doesn’t trust you completely enough to let you in on most of her private thoughts.

Either way, this is a clear indication that it is declining.

13) You don’t want to talk about the future
Living in the present moment can be a good thing. But if you are in love, you also want to talk and make plans for the future as well.

If she’s being too vague and noncommittal about making plans in advance, it may indicate that she’s only interested in having fun at the moment.

She doesn’t want to talk about what might happen in a few months, or even years, because she doesn’t know if she sees you in her future yet.
