Is he commanding more of your attention?
When we start to like someone, we spend a lot more time thinking about that person. We start to neglect family, friends and work. You check your answering machine, you wait for his emails, you wonder if something’s wrong with AOL. You find yourself thinking more and more about your times together, the little details like what he ordered to drink and the color of the shirt he wore on your last date. Random things and odd events start to remind you of him. Yup, it’s true. He’s got your attention.

Are you wearing rose-colored glasses?
When we like someone, we tend to aggrandize them: to make a lot out of the little things, to push aside their faults and to even see those faults as being cute or funny. We see their good qualities through a magnifying glass. Our friends often don’t get what we see in that person, but it doesn’t matter, because we do. Ask yourself, are you seeing this guy in a way that makes your friends think you’ve swallowed a batch of hallucinogens? If so, it’s time to get a new pair of glasses.
