How do I tell if a girl is lesbian/bi, and if she likes me?

I've been straight all my life, recently me and this one girl have become very close. So I can't stop thinking about her. I have heard from many many people that she is gay but I'm not a 100% sure. Whenever we stay a night together we always end up wrestling/play-fightingwhich involves a lot of touching laughing and smiling. I enjoy it and think it's her way of tellin me she likes me but I'm not positive. She'll give me these deep looks but I have no idea what she means by them. Everyone says eye contant is essential but I haven't a clue what she means. How do I tell if she's gay or if she even likes me?

Start a conversation with her on the general subject without mentioning anything about her or what anybody has said. Tell her how you feel (about the subject not her), then ask what she thinks.

Something like, "I've read about girls being attracted to each other. It makes me wonder if I might be like that. Did you ever wonder about it?"

Remember the point of no return is when the subject changes from a general discussion to her personally. She has to make that change in the flow of the conversation, not you. If she says no or changes the subject, go no further and leave it alone.

Your so cute. why dont you just do what you think?

i'm in a similar situation, except I already know my girl is bi, but idk if she likes me.
ask her if she supports bi/gay/lesbian ppl, and it might lead to her telling u she is bi/gay/whatever
if you feel comfortable with it, you could also tell her you might be bicurious (cuz it sounds like thats what u are), and then she might be comfortable telling you her sexuality

id juss be like do u like me ?/ nd give her a big smile juss be blunt out on the question no need to beat around the bush

I have started liking girl's for awhile. I have met a girl and we've been talking since December. What can I do to get her to like me because I really like her?
