Dating coach says 'one word' will tell you if someone is actually into you or not

According to a dating coach, there is one word that indicates if someone is interested in you - or if you're just wasting your time.

This is one for all the singletons out there, whether you've just connected/matched with someone, or you're currently in the dreaded and unpredictable talking stage, you'll probably want to listen up.

People will probably tell you to look out for signs that the other is interested in you or to be wary of any red flags that could crop up - the last thing anyone wants is to be 'sledged' this Christmas period.

There's so many dating trends to keep track of, you'll probably get a migraine trying to remember them all while talking to someone.

So, what is the one word you'll want to look out for above all?

Relationship expert Sabrina Zohar, who boasts over a million followers on TikTok, is primarily known for giving fans advice on maintaining a healthy relationship, tips on dating and how to overcome mental health barriers.

Zohar is also the host of a podcast, which is named after her, where she addresses the same topics in long-form.

Known as @sabrina.zohar on the social media platform, she simply asked: "Wanna gauge someone's interest in you?"

I can imagine thousands of users screamed 'yes' at their screens, because if dating was that easy, then nobody would be single, right?

"There is one word that somebody will use and you can find out immediately if they are interested in you or not - literally one word," she revealed.

Zohar explained: "What is that word? 'Busy.' When someone's into you, you'll f*****g know, nobody is too busy for anything."

The influencer went on to urge her followers to trust her as she owns a business, lives alone and takes care of herself, yet she still can find time 'when I want to'.

"So if you're dating somebody and they say oh sorry, I'm busy, constantly, maybe once (if they say) hey, I'm busy Saturday night, how about Sunday," she pointed out that this is 'the response from somebody that's interested in you.'

After all, you want to be top priority when it comes to your partner.

"But if somebody just says oh sorry I'm busy that night, abort fucking mission," she advised.

Zohar said we must 'take that as 'no worries'', and tell them to let you know when they're available.

Sadly, she explained: "I can put money on it, you probably won't hear from them."

One user pointed out in the comments: "If they were legit busy, they'd offer an alternative time to meet up."

Another admitted: "At this point, the next time a guy tells me he’s 'busy', I’m just gonna respond with 'noted' and never text him again."

A third agreed: "Absolutely. No one’s too busy to send a few texts or make a quick call."
