15+ signs your boss likes you but is hiding it
You know those moments when you’re at work, and your boss comes over to talk? You know, the ones where they don’t say much and just stare at you. You’re probably wondering if this could be a sign that your boss likes you or not. Well, let me tell you: It definitely is!
Your boss trusts your opinion.
If your boss trusts you to make decisions for the company, it’s likely that he or she likes you. They’ll trust your opinion in situations where a lot of people would be hesitant to do so. This is a sign that they feel comfortable working with you and have confidence in the quality of work that will come out of their relationship with each other.
Your boss may also give credit where credit is due—and if he or she does, then there’s no doubt about how much they like what they have going on at this job!

Your boss is flexible with you
It’s no secret that bosses are usually more flexible with their employees than they are with other people. In fact, studies have shown that it’s almost impossible to get fired from a job if you’re liked by your boss. And if your boss likes you and is willing to give you time off when needed (or even just let you work from home) then this can only mean one thing: he or she likes YOU!
But what exactly does this mean? Well…it means that your boss may be willing to listen to what YOU have to say and take into consideration how helpful those ideas could be in resolving problems within the company.
But what if you’re not the boss’ favorite person? What if he or she doesn’t like you at all and doesn’t care about your opinion on anything? Well, then it’s time to get a new job!

Your boss sends you personal notes
Sending a personal note is one of the best ways to show your boss that you care about them. It shows that you’re interested in their life, not just their work.
It can also be a great way to show appreciation for someone who has been especially helpful or supportive during difficult times at work.
Your stories make your boss laugh out loud.
Sometimes, your boss will laugh at the stories you tell. They may even tell the story to other people in the office, and they’ll all laugh out loud.
It’s not just any story that makes them giggle—it has to be a good one that makes everyone else laugh as well. It can be work-related or not (which is great). But if your boss finds something amusing about what’s going on in life right now and how it relates back to work—and you’re able to tell it well enough for both of those things—then chances are good that he/she likes you a lot more than he/she would admit out loud!

Your boss begins to confide in you more than other employees.
If your boss begins confiding in you more than other employees, it means that they trust you and are interested in your opinion. They know that you will keep a secret and can be trusted to do so. This is the sign of a good boss who likes their employees’ work ethic.
They actually ask what you think about things.
Your boss will ask you what you think about a particular topic and really listen to your opinion. They may even tell you that they are interested in what you think and want to hear more about it.
If your boss doesn’t ask for feedback or takes it as a personal insult if they don’t get it, then this is not a sign that he/she likes you!
They tell you about jobs before they post them.
This is a sign that your boss trusts you and wants to keep you informed. Your boss knows how important it is for employees to be prepared for job interviews, so he or she may give you some information about the position before posting it on an employee website. If this happens, do not worry: other employees will likely see this job opening at some point in the future! You can thank your boss later by being prepared when they ask if anyone has any questions about their department or company policies.
Your boss gives you meaningful gifts for holidays and birthdays.
You can tell that your boss likes you. They might not say so, but there are signs that show they do. Here are some examples of these signs:
- Your boss gives meaningful gifts for holidays and birthdays. This shows they care about you and consider you important enough to give something meaningful to celebrate how much work you’ve put into the company over the years.
- Your boss asks how things are going at home when they see you at work or vice versa—this means that it doesn’t matter where in the office we sit (or even if we talk), he/she is still interested in our lives outside of work!
They give you feedback about how well you’re doing at work.
- They give you feedback about how well you’re doing at work.
This is an important sign that your boss is proud of your performance, and they don’t want to let it go unnoticed. As much as they might keep the praise coming, it’s still a good idea to ask for regular updates on your progress—especially if it’s been awhile since they’ve given one (or if there have been some gaps). Your boss wants to make sure that whatever issues are affecting their relationship with you can be solved quickly so that both parties feel respected again.
If a project comes up that could be assigned to any employee, you get the nod.
If a project comes up that could be assigned to any employee, you get the nod.
This shows that they trust you and value your opinions. It also indicates that you have a good reputation within the team—which means they’re less likely to bring in someone new if this happens again (or at least not as quickly).
They take an interest in your personal life and goals.
The next thing you should do is ask your boss about their personal life. This can be done in a variety of ways, but it’s important that they feel comfortable talking with you about things they wouldn’t normally talk to anyone else about. You could ask them what they like doing when they are off the clock, or even better yet: ask them if there’s any hobbies or interests that were once shared but now seem private.
If this seems too personal for their liking, look into finding out how much time they spend alone and why (if at all). It may seem odd to ask this question; however, it will help open up an opportunity for communication between both parties so long as both parties have mutual respect for each other’s privacy by not being too nosy about others’ lives—just because someone has an interesting hobby doesn’t mean we need know every detail about it!
Their body language is soft and open around you, more so than others.
If a person’s body language is more relaxed and open around you, they may like you more. When someone is comfortable in their own skin, it can be a good sign that they feel comfortable with you too.
If this sounds like a foreign concept to you (maybe because it’s been drilled into our heads since birth that men don’t want to show weakness), then think of how confident and at ease people are when they’re around friends or family members who care about them deeply—that’s what it looks like when someone is completely comfortable with themselves!
This kind of behavior isn’t just about how well we know each other; rather than being concerned about what others think of us (and thus trying desperately not to mess up), those who display self-awareness have no need for such worries because they know exactly where they stand in relation to everyone else around them.
Their voice becomes softer and higher pitched when they speak with you.
- Their voice becomes softer and higher pitched when they speak with you.
- They will speak more slowly, using inflection in their voice. The pitch of their voice will be higher than normal, as well.
- The tone of their voice is softer than usual—not in a romantic way, but rather because it’s used for the same purpose as low-pitched voices would be used: softening speech to make it easier on the ears.
They take pride in your accomplishments, even if they aren’t directly related to work.
You’re on the road to a promotion, or you just got back from vacation. Your boss sends you an email saying “I haven’t seen this in a while! Here’s a picture of us at our favorite restaurant last week. I can’t wait until we go again!” While it might seem like they’re just being nice, this is actually a sign that they love you and want to see your success. They know how much work goes into achieving those things—and who is better than yourself? So when someone takes pride in your accomplishments, even if they aren’t directly related to work (like taking pictures), it shows me two things:
- They respect me as an individual outside of my career path;
- They recognize my talents as an asset to them
They remember little details about your personal life (like your kids’ names).
One sign that your boss likes you: They remember little details about your personal life (like your kids’ names).
They might ask about the family, or they’ll bring up something that happened in their personal life and relate it to their own. Or they may even make a comment about one of these things without knowing anything about it. If this happens more than once, then it’s safe to assume that this person is interested in keeping tabs on how well-rounded and interesting their employees are!
In addition to remembering details from previous conversations or meetings with you, bosses also tend to pay attention when it comes time for them to meet with new team members so that everyone has an opportunity for bonding over shared experiences or interests before working together closely as colleagues
Your boss really does like you!
If your boss really likes you, the signs will be there. It’s just a matter of looking for them.
- Your boss is trying too hard to hide it: Your boss might be putting on a fake smile when talking with you or trying not to look you directly in the eye when he/she talks about work stuff. This may be because he/he doesn’t want anyone else to know how much he enjoys having someone to talk about work with—or maybe he just thinks that by acting otherwise than like his usual self around you, it’ll make him seem friendlier and more approachable (and less intimidating). Either way, this behavior could mean that he likes what’s happening between the two of us!
Conclusion
If you’ve made it this far and have found yourself wondering if your boss likes you, the answer is yes. There are a lot of signs that indicate that your boss truly cares about their employees and wants the best for them. If they don’t outright tell you how much they like you, then they should at least show it in an indirect way such as by giving personal notes or making small gestures like smiling more or saying hi every once in a while. As long as you’re doing a good job and staying professional, then your boss will probably like you. If they don’t, then it’s time to look into another job opportunity.
