How to tell if a girl is dating someone

If you want to start flirting with a girl, it's probably a good idea to find out if she's single first. If you know the girl’s full name, try searching for her on social media, since her profile might show her relationship status. Alternatively, ask one of her friends by saying something like, “Hey, do you know what Emily’s dating situation is?” Otherwise, you’ll have to try reading her body language and social cues. For example, if she’s making eye contact with you and smiling a lot, there’s a good chance she’s single, but don’t assume this without more information. If you've been talking to her for a while and you're still not sure, try something a little less subtle. For instance, if she mentions she likes football, you can say, “Do you watch games with your boyfriend?” If she says she doesn’t have one, then you know she’s single.
