We all know Leos are naturally fiery and flirty, so what are the signs a Leo man truly likes you? With their big hearts and courageous spirit, Leos make amazing partners, but first, you have to figure out if he’s interested! We’ve put together a guide of the clear signs a Leo man likes you and the best ways you can respond to his unique flirting style.

This article is based on an interview with our psychic astrologer, Stina Garbis, owner of Psychic Stina. Check out the full interview here.

He shows off in front of you.

  1. A Leo man loves being in the spotlight and he’ll want to look his best around you. Leo men get primal when they’re interested in someone, which might mean he’ll try to show off in order to prove he’s dominant and better than the rest of the crowd.[1] He might brag about his latest success, spend a bunch of money, talk louder, or even seem to stand up straighter when you’re around. The most important thing is to respect a Leo man’s pride—they have a lot of it.[2]
    • To win your Leo over, show him that you appreciate who he is and recognize all his unique strengths and talents.
    • When he’s being a show off, flash him a smile and let it show if you’re actually impressed! He’ll appreciate the validation.[3]
    • Leo men like to outshine everyone else because they’re fire signs ruled by the sun—the brightest, biggest object in the sky.

He gravitates towards you.

  1. A Leo man knows what he wants, so he’ll seek you out if he likes you. He’ll find a way to drift towards you in a crowd or stop by your desk to casually talk to you at work. True to their lion zodiac symbol, Leos are courageous hunters who will chase you if they like you.[4] They’re not masters of subtlety, so if you think your Leo might have a crush, chances are you’re right![5]
    • When a Leo’s attracted to you, he might make excuses to spend as much time with you as possible.
    • He might also pull you aside when you’re at a party or hanging out with a group of people.

He brings you into his social group.

  1. Leos are social butterflies and they want you to be a part of their world. When a Leo guy likes you, get ready for your social calendar to fill up. If there’s a party, he’ll want you to be his plus one. If he’s going out to dinner with his friends, he’ll want to introduce you to everyone. Odds are, he’ll be the one organizing all the events, too, since Leos are natural leaders.[10] If you really want to get his attention, try turning the tables and planning your own outing:

He treats you differently than he treats his friends.

  1. A Leo guy is a natural flirt, but he’ll amp up his intensity if he really likes you.[12] Compare how to acts around you to how he acts around his friends, since it can be tough to tell if he’s into you or just being his outgoing, charming self. When he’s around his friends, he might seem boisterous and energetic, but that energy will get more focused when you’re around and he might show you his more vulnerable side.
    • He might express a bunch of enthusiasm for his friends’ interests, but he’ll actually try out your favorite hobbies and watch your favorite movies.
    • He might often compliment his friends, but he’ll talk about how unique and different you are from other people.
7

He showers you with compliments.

He surprises you with over-the-top gestures.

  1. Leos are the most romantic sign and they have a flair for drama. Even a shy Leo guy who likes you might show up with your favorite snack or send you a thoughtful playlist (seriously, check if they’re all love songs). A bolder Leo might buy you flowers, stop by with a meal from your favorite restaurant, or organize an elaborate movie night for just the two of you—even if he says you’re just friends.
    • When it comes to date night, Leos will prefer to take you to a fancy restaurant rather than cooking dinner at home.
    • Instead of surprising you with a big gift, a naturally-supportive Leo might also make a grand gesture through favors. He might offer to take on a project you don’t like or ask if you need help around the house.
9

He craves your approval and attention.

  1. Leo men need reassurance in the early stages of dating. In public settings, he might keep glancing your way because he wants to know if you’re paying attention to him. Over text, he might hide his insecurity by teasing you with a cocky line like “Miss me yet?” But deep down, a Leo man will tease you because he’s secretly a big softie who cares about how you see him.[14]
    • It’s best not to play with a Leo’s heart, so if you want to win him over, be genuine and straightforward. Send him a text like, “I miss you when you’re not around” and you’ll make him swoon.
    • If he sends you a selfie or photo of himself, tell him that he looks handsome.
    • If he’s not sure how you feel, a Leo man might not make the first move over text. Since texting makes it harder for him to use his keen social skills and charm, don’t be afraid to text him first!

    If they are interested in you, they will constantly compliment you, buy you things, show off and brag. Being a naturally flirty sign, they will twirl their hair, flex, puff out their chest, check their posture, or have a sexy walk or strut.
