When a guy says he’s crazy about you, what does he actually mean?

He keeps repeating these words and you have no idea what to think of them.

Is it a sign of real love or does it mean that he’ll leave you once his flaming emotions burn down?

When you find yourself in a relationship, you’ll be faced with a number of dilemmas.

Your partner will say some things you’ve never been told before and you’ll have to try to figure out their meanings.

You’ll want to know what actually lies behind those words and how you should approach them.

And we all know how awkward guys can be with words.

Their intention may completely differ from their execution. They mean one thing, but when they say it out loud, it turns into something else.

That’s why it’s completely normal that you’re currently wondering about what this guy you’ve been seeing means when he says he’s crazy about you.

Should you understand it as he cares about you or as if he’s warning you that he might turn out to be controlling?

Before we dig deeper into this topic, I want you to know that a guy will tell you that he’s crazy about you only if he REALLY likes you.

This phrase can have different meanings but he would never have said it to you if he didn’t like you.

When a guy says he’s crazy about you, what does he mean?

A guy’s intentions can be hard to read, which is why it can be challenging when you find yourself decoding his words.

What does he really mean and how can you know that he’s telling the truth?

I’ll try to give you possible explanations for what it means when a guy says he’s crazy about you. It’s up to you to see what suits your situation best!

Now, let’s see what it really means when a guy says he’s crazy about you!

1. I like you a lot. I might even love you, but it’s too early to say that.

When a guy says that he’s crazy about you, it could mean that he really likes you. Actually, it’s more likely that he loves you but he’s afraid to say that.

Guys are usually afraid of their feelings. They get scared when they see that they’re falling harder than they originally wanted.

When your guy finds himself in a situation like this, he will have no idea what he should do next.

Let’s say that you’ve been dating for some time but not for too long, and all of a sudden, he gets the feeling that he loves you.

Still, it feels too early to say that. Maybe he’ll scare you off and end up losing you.

He doesn’t want to risk your relationship by telling you that he loves you so he tries to find another solution.

What if he tells you that he’s mad about you? Will you understand what he means by that?

When a guy says that he’s crazy about you, he’s often telling you implicitly that he loves you.

He wants to see your reaction so he can know what his next step should be.

Are you willing to follow his lead or is it too early for that?

2. I feel butterflies in my stomach every time I see you, but I’m not brave enough to admit that.

When a guy says he’s crazy about you, it can mean that whenever he sees you, he feels butterflies in his stomach.

His heart probably starts beating faster, and he can’t control himself. The word, “Wow,” slips out of his mouth, and he becomes mesmerized by you.

We all know that when it comes to talking about their feelings, guys are a bit more reserved.

It’s not easy for them to admit that they like someone until they’re 100% sure of it.

No guy would risk pulling himself into a serious committed relationship while not being certain that it’s what he actually wants.

So, he chooses to take the slower path, and instead of telling you that he feels over the moon every time he sees you, he chooses to tell you that he’s mad about you.

It sounds less serious, but deep down, he’s still hoping that you’ll understand the real meaning of his words.

He’s letting you be the one who’ll be in charge and write your destiny.

Will you show him that you feel the same way about him, or will you let him struggle with finding the right way to show you that he loves you?

3. I feel like you’re the one for me, but I first want to test the waters and see whether you like me the same way.

When a guy gazes into your eyes and tells you he’s crazy about you, it could mean that he thinks that you’re a perfect match for him.

He could go around the world and try his luck with other girls but he would never find someone who suits him better than you.

You’re the final piece of his puzzle, and you make him feel complete.

However, of course, he probably thinks that it’s too early for him to reveal his true feelings to you, so he decides to use words that sound less intense.

He thinks that you’re the one he’s been looking for his whole life but he’s not sure whether you feel the same way about him, which is why he’s testing the waters by telling you that he’s mad about you.

He wants to see your reaction so he can know whether to take your relationship a step further.

4. I feel complete when I’m with you.

Guys know when something feels right. They feel it in their bones.

So, when a guy says he’s crazy about you, it can mean that you and him being together simply feels right. It feels like the right step to take.

When he looks at you, he sees the girl he wants to grow old with. He sees the one he wants to have kids with, and it all feels right.

He feels complete with you, and every time he says that he’s crazy about you, he thinks of your future together and how much fun you’re going to have.

You make him feel like he has found everything he ever wanted, and now, his life feels like all of his dreams have come true.

5. I’m too crazy about you to the point that I might even become a bit controlling.

What Does It Mean When A Guy Says He's Crazy About You? 23

When a guy says he’s crazy about you, it could also mean something more serious and a bit more controlling.

You want to believe that you’ll be lucky enough that you never meet a controlling person in your life.

Someone who will try to control your life and guide every step you take.

But sometimes, life happens, and you find yourself in a situation you never expected.

When a guy says he’s mad about you and then combines that with controlling behavior, it usually means that he’s that type who’ll try to control every move you make.

He loves you to the point where he believes that he needs to know everything you do, which then turns all that love into controlling behavior no one likes to talk about.

He keeps calling you all the time to check up on you.

Whenever you go out, he may call you and tell you that you should go home or he’ll get mad at you.

Or it could be that his controlling behavior gets to the point where he loses his mind because you keep hanging out with your old friends.

As an excuse for all of that, he will say that he’s crazy about you and that he only wants to protect you.

In this case, if your guy says that he’s mad about you, it means that he will try to control your life and put you into a cage.

Of course, this is only applicable if his behavior becomes controlling and overprotective.

How can you know that he’s being honest when he says that he’s crazy about you?

As you can already see, when a guy says he’s crazy about you, it usually means that he really likes you.

In some cases, combined with weird behavior, it can mean that he’s being controlling but you don’t need him to say that he’s crazy about you in order to realize that.

Now that you know what his words could mean, you probably want to know how you can know whether he’s being honest with you.

How can you know that when a guy says he’s mad about you, he’s not only saying it to get what he wants?

How can you know that he wants to be with you and fight for your relationship, no matter how hard it gets?

Well, if we go back to the well-known fact that guys show their feelings through actions, then the answer is quite simple.

Pay close attention to his behavior, and it’ll easily show you how a guy really feels about you.

Is he actually crazy about you and does he truly like you or is he only playing with you? His actions will give him away!

Let’s see how a guy will show you through his actions that when he says he’s mad about you, he means it in the best way possible.

1. He texts you even when he’s busy just to check on you

What Does It Mean When A Guy Says He's Crazy About You? 25

Dating can be tricky. All that overthinking about whether you should text him first and what you should write.

Was he supposed to text you already or is it too early?

It all gets to the point where you feel that your head hurts from all those thoughts.

I mean, he said he’s crazy about you, so why isn’t he making a move?

And then all of a sudden, you start receiving random texts in the middle of the day even though you know that he’s busy with work.

He texts you asking how your day is going and whether you’re having a hard time.

Trust me, men usually don’t text this to all of the girls they meet. It means that even though he’s busy, he’s still thinking about you, which is a huge deal.

You crossed his mind and maybe you’re also in his heart.

When he texts you daily just to see how you’re doing, it means that he actually cares about you.

Truth be told, he might even be as crazy about you as he said.

2. He introduces you to his parents and friends

We all know that meeting your partner’s friends and parents is a big deal. It’s one of the most important milestones your relationship can go through.

So, when your guy decides that he wants you to meet his parents and his very close friends, it means that he’s crazy about you.

Even though you may think that it’s nothing special as every girl he dated probably met his parents, I have to tell you that you’re wrong.

Guys usually only let the girls they really like meet their parents, so if he told you that he wants you to meet them this weekend then you’re the real deal.

Also, if he invited you to meet his best friends, you can be sure that he likes you more than you think.

He’ll be willing for you to meet the special people in his life only if you’re special enough. And it seems that you are!

3. He uses the pronoun ‘we’ more than ‘I’

When a guy says he’s crazy about you, you’ll know that he’s being honest if he includes you in his plans for the future.

Have you noticed that he’s been saying ‘we’ instead of ‘I’? His plans aren’t only about him anymore, but he makes space for you too.

When he keeps doing that, even though you never asked him to, it means that he’s mad about you and that he can’t imagine his life without you.

He knows your worth, and he doesn’t want to lose you.

You’re the one he wants to stick around forever, and he makes sure to show you that he’s not going anywhere.

4. He mentions the two of you moving in together

What Does It Mean When A Guy Says He's Crazy About You? 28

Guys are men of action and you can easily tell whether they’re crazy about you by the way they act around you.

If your guy has already mentioned that he wants the two of you to move in together sometime in the future, it’s a clear sign that he’s mad about you.

Trust me, men want to have the space of their own.

They want to feel free in their own home, without wondering about how they’re supposed to act around others.

So if he mentions that he wants to move in with you, it means that he feels comfortable around you.

He wants to share the same space with you because he likes you.

If he mentioned the two of you moving in together, it means that he’s been imagining what your days spent living together would look like.

And trust me, a guy won’t do that unless his feelings are real.

5. He doesn’t run away when you mention one of those scary words

What Does It Mean When A Guy Says He's Crazy About You? 29

We all know that a man who isn’t ready for a serious relationship fears many things. And one of them is those scary words that make his stomach turn.

Mention marriage or kids to him, and if he isn’t serious about you, he’ll run away as if you committed the worst crime.

On the flip side, if he’s crazy about you, he’ll stick around or even be the first one to initiate these topics.

You’ll hear him planning how many kids he wants the two of you to have or how he wants your wedding day to look.

This may take you by surprise, but when a guy is mad about you, it doesn’t seem a big deal to him.

He knows that he wants you in his life for the long run, and he’s not afraid to show you that.

You’re the final piece of his puzzle, and he wants everyone to know that.

6. He commits to you

When a guy is crazy about you, he has no problem committing to you.

He calls you his girlfriend in front of everyone because he doesn’t care what others have to say about that.

He knows what his heart wants, and he listens to it!

You won’t be listening to excuses such as, “I’m not ready for a relationship right now,” as a guy who’s mad about you wants to spend his whole life with you.

And he wants that to get that started as soon as possible.

7. He randomly brings you your favorite treats or does things that make you happy

What Does It Mean When A Guy Says He's Crazy About You? 31

When a guy is crazy about you, he does everything he can to make you happy.

He wants the smile on your face to be present all the time, and he’ll do whatever it takes to make that happen.

So, don’t be surprised when he stops by your place and gives you your favorite chocolate treat.

Or if he calls you out of the blue and tells you to get ready because he wants to take you out to your favorite place.

Whatever it is, when a guy’s mad about you, he’ll always try to make you his priority.

He’ll do things that make you happy, and he’ll do them without you asking for them.

He’ll spoil you and make you feel like the only girl in his world and you’ll feel it in your bones that his feelings are real.

You’ll simply have to trust him because you’ll know that it’s the only right thing to do!

8. He actually listens to your problems and always tries to find solutions

What Does It Mean When A Guy Says He's Crazy About You? 32

It’s easy to share happiness with someone, anyone can do that.

But what makes a relationship special is when your partner is willing to deal with your problems as if they’re his own.

Every time you tell him that you have an issue that needs to be solved, he’ll leave everything behind and come running to you.

He’ll listen to you carefully and he’ll try to find the right solution for it.

When this happens, you can be sure that your guy is crazy about you and that he’ll do anything for you.

One thing is for sure – he likes you more than you think and he wants to help you however he can.

You’re the one he wants, and he hates seeing you upset. That’s why he’ll do everything he can to put a smile back on your face.

It’s his priority!

9. He always seeks your advice

If a guy is crazy about you, you’ll be the person he keeps running to whenever he needs help.

He trusts you and he knows that you want the best for him, which is why he’ll always ask you for advice, as he knows that you would never wish him harm.

Men usually don’t like to be told what to do. They generally make decisions on their own because they want to be in control of their own lives.

But when a guy falls in love with you and his feelings take him to the point where he feels mad about you, he’ll be more than happy to listen to what you have to say.

He knows that he can always count on you, and that makes him more than happy!

10. He supports your dreams

Whenever you want to achieve something, he’ll be the one who’ll cheer the loudest for you.

He’ll always support your dreams and he’ll make you feel that you can do anything you want.

Call him in the middle of the night and tell him that you want to fly to the moon, and he’ll have your back no matter what!

To wrap things up, when a guy says he’s crazy about you, it can mean different things, but the main point is that he really likes you.

Also, if you want to know whether he’s being honest about his words, you should pay attention to the way he treats you. His actions speak volumes!

There is still one question that remains unclear, however.

When a guy is crazy about you, will he turn those feelings for you into something positive or will he become overprotective and controlling?

That’s still to be seen!
