Article: Does he walk across the classroom or the cafeteria just to say hi? Does he pick you as a partner in class or always want to be in your study groups? If he’s making a big effort to spend time with you and talk to you, he could be interested!  This is an especially big sign if he doesn’t make these efforts with other people. If he’s treating you a little differently and talks to you more than other people, he probably likes you. Even a shy guy might make more of an effort to talk to you. See if he hovers around your group at lunchtime, or even does something as simple as saying hi in the halls. If he pokes fun at you in a light, playful tone, he’s not trying to be mean—he may actually be flirting with you. Pay attention to whether he’s sarcastic or teasing more than with other people. These playful jokes and challenges could mean that he likes you.  For example, he could say something like, “Why are you so mean to me?” or “You’re such a weirdo!” You should be able to tell by his tone and expression that he just wants your attention, and isn’t actually trying to hurt your feelings. He might also try to tease or flirt with you by starting fake, playful fights, like over a pencil or the last sheet of paper in a stack. His jokes and teasing should always be light-hearted, and you should be able to easily tell that he’s kidding. If it starts to hurt your feelings or make you feel bad, ask him to stop or tell an adult. If a guy likes you, he’ll want to know as much about you as he can. Start a conversation with him at lunch or during class and bring up something you’ve done lately, like a vacation or a project. See if he responds positively or wants to know more—this could be a sign that he’s interested in you!  For example, you could say something like, “We just got back from skiing yesterday and I’m so tired.” See if he asks you questions about where you went skiing, how it was, who you went with, or anything else. He might try to act cool by pretending like he doesn’t care, but he might still try to subtly get answers by saying something like, “That’s cool. I heard the snow’s really good this year, right?” If a guy likes you, he might try to brag a little to get you interested in him, too. Pay attention to the way he talks about himself and whether he’s playing up his accomplishments, especially in things he knows you like.  For example, he might say something like, “Yeah, I’m on the soccer team. We’re pretty good this year…”, then wait for you to ask more questions so he has a chance to brag a little. If he knows you like science, he might say something like, “I went to that natural science museum once. They let me up into the anti-gravity room, and they barely ever open that up to people.” When a guy likes you, he might try to show his interest by giving you subtle compliments. Listen closely for these, since they might be more hidden. He’ll be using them to show that he thinks you’re cool, and to make you feel good around him.  For example, he might say something like, “You’re like the star on the swim team, right?” or “I don’t usually like art, but your paintings are pretty cool.” His compliments might also be more teasing, like, “You got 100% on that math quiz, right? What a nerd…” If a guy follows you on Instagram, Snapchat, Facebook, Twitter, or anywhere else, it could be a sign that he likes you. If he likes and comments your posts or sends you private messages, that’s an even bigger sign!  For example, he might comment on a picture from your vacation with something like “Take me next time, ok??” He might also send you funny pictures or videos, which shows that he’s thinking of you and things you might like, even when you’re not together.

Water snakes are usually deadly and it's unlikely you can get help quickly enough after being bitten, so avoiding them is your only line of safety. If you know water snakes are in a body of water, the safest thing is to stay out of the water. There are plenty of safe places to go swimming in the world, so choose those places for your next trip. Even if the water is usually safe, the heavy rains may have caused snakes that are usually land-lubbers to get caught up in the water and they'll be attempting to get back to safety.
