4. When you want to show someone you like them focus on them. Become interested in what they are saying or even doing. Attentively listen to them as they speak and become involved with their conversation. As they talk, paraphrase and ask them pertinent questions regarding what they are saying. If they are busy doing something and it looks like they could use some help, offer to help them. Both listening and helping are other ways to show people you like them. The demonstration that we like someone can also be expressed in our concern for them. Most people like it when another person cares about them. Asking the person you've seen in the store every morning for the past week about their family or work are examples of concern for that person. The act of concern shows people you like them. To wrap up, make a point of being positive, friendly and focused on the other person. Be concerned about their welfare and help them when you can. When you deal with new people in this way you`ll find that people warm to you quickly and they are keen to get to know you better.
