If you’ve ever wanted to occupy someone’s thoughts effortlessly, you’re in the right place. Making your crush think about you nonstop isn’t about grand gestures or being overly obvious. Instead, it’s all about subtlety—those little things that linger in their mind long after you’re gone. 💭✨
The best part? They won’t even realize you’re doing it. So, let’s dive into the 10 most effective ways to keep yourself on their mind all day (and maybe even in their dreams 😉).
1. Create a Unique Inside Joke 😆
Laughter is an instant connection booster. If you can create an inside joke—something only the two of you understand—it’ll trigger thoughts of you every time they encounter it.
Example:
💬 “I bet you’re still thinking about the time you spilled coffee everywhere. Legendary moment. 😂”
Every time they have coffee? BOOM. They think of you.
2. Use Their Name in Conversation 🗣️
Sounds simple, but it’s powerful. Studies show that hearing our own name activates a positive response in the brain. So, instead of saying:
🚫 “You’re so funny!”
Try:
✅ “You know, Alex, you’re seriously one of the funniest people I’ve met.”
It feels personal. It feels meaningful. And it sticks.
3. Make Eye Contact—Then Look Away 👀
The way you look at someone can make all the difference. A quick but intense gaze followed by a soft smile and looking away? It’s straight out of a romance movie.
Try this:
🔥 Lock eyes for just a second longer than normal. 🔥 Give a tiny smirk. 🔥 Look away as if you weren’t even trying.
They’ll be left wondering, “What was THAT about?” And wondering means thinking about you.
4. Have a Signature Scent 🌸
Smell is one of the most powerful memory triggers. If you wear a specific fragrance regularly, your crush will start associating that scent with you.
So the next time they catch a whiff of vanilla, fresh linen, or whatever your scent is? Their brain instantly goes: YOU.
5. Play with Scarcity ⏳
If you’re always available, there’s no mystery. Instead, keep them on their toes a little. If they message you, don’t always reply instantly. If they invite you somewhere, sometimes say you’re busy (even if you’re just watching Netflix in pajamas).
🚀 “I’d love to hang out, but I’ve got plans tonight. Let’s do something soon though!”
This makes your time seem valuable—and people want what they can’t have easily.
6. Subtly Mirror Their Body Language 🤝
Mirroring is a psychological trick that creates a sense of connection. If they lean in, you lean in slightly. If they cross their arms, you do it too (in a natural way). It makes them feel like you’re in sync, even if they don’t realize why.
Test it out next time you’re together and watch how the energy shifts. 😉
7. Engage Them in Thought-Provoking Conversations 🧠
People love thinking about interesting topics, so bring up intriguing questions or fun hypotheticals. For example:
🤔 “If you could travel anywhere right now, where would you go and why?”
This creates meaningful conversations that stick in their mind long after you’ve parted ways.
8. Showcase Your Confidence 💪
Confidence is magnetic. Whether it’s through your posture, the way you speak, or how you carry yourself, confidence makes people take notice.
✅ Walk with purpose. ✅ Speak with certainty. ✅ Own your space.
Your presence will leave a lasting impression.
9. Do Small, Thoughtful Gestures 🎁
Little actions can leave a huge impact. Bring them coffee, remember their favorite snack, or send them a funny meme that reminded you of them.
These small moments show you care without being over the top, making them think about you more.
10. Always End on a High Note 💥
The way a conversation ends is often what people remember most. Whether it’s in person or over text, always leave them feeling good.
🔹 “Talking to you always makes my day better.” 🔹 “I love our little chats, you seriously crack me up.” 🔹 “Can’t wait to see what hilarious thing you do next.”
Leaving on a high note ensures that when they think about you, it’s with positive emotions. And that? That’s everything.
Final Thoughts 💭
These 10 tricks aren’t about manipulation—they’re about creating genuine moments of connection. The more positive and intriguing you are, the more your crush will naturally think about you.
