How to tell if a man likes you or not? You can find women
everywhere asking this question in their own mind or checking up
with their friends or asking relationship experts, but really, it's
easy for a woman to find out if a man really likes her, for two
simple reasons.
-Most men are open books and their body language gives them away
-Women have a natural sixth sense to sense if a man is checking her
out
As a woman, when you get an intuition that a guy is interested in
you, it's mostly a true one and you can simply bank on it. So
finding out if a man really likes you could just be about making a
double-check on your intuition or gut feeling. Nevertheless, there
are women who doubt their intuition and would like more concrete
evidence to determine if a man digs her. So in this article we have
listed down the body language of men which indicate whether he likes
you or not.
Body Language of Men - Does He Like You?
Women are much more adept at controlling their body language than
men are, the reason could lie in the psychological fact that women
are more in touch with their body than men. Men are poor at
manipulating their body language and so in most cases their
unconscious actions are a give away of their feelings.
Let's make it clear, some men are just too obvious in their approach
- they make steady eye contact, they give you their flashy or flirty
smile, they get close into your personal space, they try to initiate
conversation and start asking for your number after a few
pleasantries. Such men are "pros", or may be even players, when it
comes to dealing with women - but these are the minority. Most men
are not so obvious about their interest, and may even be insecure
about expressing their attraction. These men display subtle signs to
show that they like you or are attracted to you, these are the signs
we will discuss here.
Vital Signs of Attraction
Tentative Eye Contact
It might come as a surprise to many women but most men tend to be
shy about making eye contact with the woman they feel strongly
attracted to. If you catch a man looking at you when you are not
looking in his direction, and who swiftly turns his glance away the
moment you look at him, it would indicate that he secretly finds you
attractive (it may not be love, but he's definitely attracted). If
you find a guy making sheepish eye contact with you, ever so often,
it's a sure shot sign of his attraction for you.
If a guy leers at you, or gives you blatant flirty looks, it shows
he's interested but in a "lusty" sorta way. It suggests that he
finds you hot, and you trigger sexual attraction in him. So if this
is not the kind of relationship you are looking for, then just give
him a cold shoulder.
If a guy is not attracted to a girl, or when he does not have a love
interest, he will not be shy of making eye contact and mostly it
would be a casual or an uninterested one. Of course, it's true that
there are some uber confident males who make direct eye contact with
the woman they want to get up close with, but with these men the
signs are so in the face that you don't need to read an article on
whether he's interested or not.
The Warm Smile
When in love, guys are less likely to display "flirty" behavior and
more likely to behave in a "gentlemanly" manner. Most of them would
display a warm smile to show their respect, adoration or admiration
for you. If you feel a warmth, and respect, in his smile, it's an
indication that he finds you pretty (rather than "hot") and may havegushy feelings of love for you, rather than testosterone pumped
lust. So a warm smile is a good thing, and it suggests the
possibility of love interest.
You might even see a guy smiling nervously at you, with an uncertain
half smile. This indicates that he's is attracted to you but feels
"insecure" about his chances with you. You can put him at ease by
returning a warm smile, then the next time he sees you he will be
more assured in his smile.
Watch His Adam's Apple
When you talk to a guy, who is normally confident, and if you see
him a little "flustered" in your company, or blushing, with a
bobbing adam's apple, it can be a quick give away of his feelings
for you. He feels nervous because he's worried about the impression
he's making on you, and when a person is nervous his "adam's apple"
starts going up and down because of the strain of nervousness. When
a guy is not interested in a girl, however beautiful she is, he will
not be nervous in her company - he will be at ease with her.
The Helpful Attitude
If you find a man trying to be helpful of you, assisting you or
giving you more importance, at the office, it's indicative of his
interest in you. Men are usually very conservative about offering
help, especially in office, and they would do so only if they have
an interest in being close to you. He may offer to assist you with
your office work, try to help you repair or sort out stuff, get you
coffee or water, offer you a ride home or just look out for you at
the meetings.
Grooming
When men are in love they try to take better care of their looks. If
you see an evident change in the dressing style, or hair style, of a
man, after he gets to know you a bit, it could indicate that you are
having an impact on him. Most men are not naturally good at dressing
up, so if you see a man making a conscious effort to look good, it
would directly mean that he's trying to impress a girl - and it
could be you.
Standing Tall
Guys have an unconscious way of displaying their masculinity by
standing tall, with their stomach tucked in, when they are in the
company of a woman they are attracted to. It's a man's way of trying
to impress a woman with his body, however miserable the attempt
might come off. Most guys tend to slouch a lot, so it becomes
evident when they suddenly stand erect.
Exaggerated Behavior To Catch Your Attention
Some guys tend to behave in a very exaggerated manner around their
friends and colleagues when their "love interest" is in the
vicinity. Just notice his behavior with other men, when you are
around. Does he suddenly start cracking jokes, talking loud or
making strong opinions? This is again an unconscious behavior on a
man's part and is aimed at impressing the fact that he is the leader
of the pack.
Other Suggestive Signs that Show if a Man Likes You
Finding Out If You Have A Boyfriend
If a man is really serious about you, then he will definitely try to
find out if you already have an on-going relationship with another
guy. Some men might ask you this question directly whereas others
will try to find this out by some other means like asking your
friends or someone who is close to you. He might even ask you
indirect questions about your plan for the weekend. All these are
ways to find out if you already have a boyfriend. Once a man is sure
that you are single, he will make his next move or wait for you to
make a move by giving you all the right signals.
Subtle Signals
Fear of getting rejected stops most men from making this final move;
which is asking a girl for a date. Most men will instead send
indirect signals that they want to date you. Some examples are -
asking to drop you home (if you are working in the same office or
studying in the same school/college), getting you gifts, telling you
about their weekend plans (suggesting they are alone). He will try
to see if you pick up the opportunity and open up an invitation for
a date. Of course, some guys would be a lot more direct in their
asking.
Taking The Relationship Forward
Once you start dating, you are likely to figure out the real
chemistry between the two of you. The relationship may fizzle out or
become a really stable one, depending on your compatibility. Guys
become much more open about their emotions and feelings once they
are feel comfortable in a girl's company (they rarely talk about
their emotions with their guy friends, unlike girls).
So these are some of the ways in which you can tell if a man likes
you. With some deliberate observation you can pick up on the body
language of a man who's attracted to you, and then proceed to either
give him a green signal or block him out with your coldness.
