How can I know if this girl in my class really likes me? I don't want to do anything drastic like jump up and ask her. Is reading body language important? I like her a lot too, but I just want to be sure so I can move on and start a relationship. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Body language is important, but it's also important not to sit there trying to read it.

"just want to be sure so I can move on and start a relationship"

The only way to be sure is to make a move, you can sit there for years reading into her body language and still not "be sure" just go for it. You'll never be 100% sure until you ask her out.

Don't be afraid of that you might be wrong, just assume that she likes you. Seriously that's the risk we all take. I've asked out girls whose body language and the amount of flirting and touching me etc. made me fully sure they liked me and they said no when I asked them out. That I'd made a mistake.

I've also seen girls whose body language seemed like they hated me, they were cold and tried their best not to even look at me, but when I asked them out they said yes, they acted that way because they were shy and were trying really hard not to show that they liked me.

So in that sense body language isn't really that important because it can lie too.

Body language is HUGE when one shows interest. For example, does she follow your mannerisms, does she make eye contact, does she fidget when she speaks with you, does she focus on your words and not get distracted, does she smile when you speak to her, play with her hair maybe?...also feel free to read up on this stuff online. It is very common for women to use body language when trying to attract men.

I once picked up a woman cause I picked up her body language and when I approached her she didnt even speak english lol.

Good luck.
