Signs He Likes You

Hurrah, you have found someone that you like. Now all you need to work out is if he likes you too.

If only he warmed up a bit. Well, relax. Reading those unspoken signals is easier than you'd think.

It might be that he isn't thinking about you in that way, but equally he might just be working out whether or not he wants to make a move and what kind of response he would get if he made it.

According to body-language experts, women have fifty-two moves with which to signal to a guy that they are interested; men only have about ten. Learning to read them is an invaluable way of working out if you are desirable to someone, and can take some of the agony out of second-guessing. Of course, some signs can have different meanings; touching your face can mean that you desire the person you are talking to, or it can mean that you are trying to work out what you think about them. This is, of course, because you have to work these expressions out in context, along with other signs such as eye contact and what they may be saying out loud. But it won't take long before you master the subtleties.

If you want to make sure that you aren't going to crash and burn when you give him the go ahead to make a move, then look out for these signals.

Here's looking at you, kid. There are things a man does before he even knows he fancies you. He may lift an eyebrow, his mouth might be slightly open when he looks at you, he may stand apart from his crowd of mates so that he seems more inviting. He might not even have had a conscious sexy thought, yet, but it is heading to his brain.
Va va groom. He will start fiddling with his tie, pull up his socks or run his hands through his hair. All of these gestures are trying to get your attention, but are also a way of preening: yes, men do it too. Doing any of these repeatedly or all three? If he was a peacock you would be getting the full effect of his feathers by now.
Check out my manliness. Yep, even the most refined of men start acting all primal when it comes to getting what they want. He may sit with his legs open, giving you the full force of his crotch, place his hands on his chest or hips, or he may lean into your body space.
Things speed up. He may play with an ashtray, smoke more, drink more (don't we all?) or fiddle with his clothes. It's all about giving his hands something to do while his mind races through the possibilities of activities in which they would be otherwise better engaged.
Gentlemanly behaviour alert. So now you have finally got his attention, and he has moved into your orbit and may make a few of the following protective, ownership gestures which let you - and other men - know that he has an interest in you. This may involve sliding an arm around the back of your chair, getting you drinks or putting his jacket around your shoulders to keep you warm. This is the body-language equivalent of getting out his branding iron and putting his initials on your butt.
Signs you can swing. He may be indecisive about you, still trying to make up his mind, in which case you may have to work a little harder. Look out for him pulling or tugging at his ear (which means indecision), stroking his chin or putting his hand to his cheek (which means he is thinking about the situation).

And finally:

Give up. If he is doing any of the following things, you should probably give him a wide berth. Arms crossed mean defensiveness, and rubbing his nose means he could be lying about something or rejecting you. Pinching the bridge of his nose is a sign of a negative evaluation and hands clasped behind his back means he is feeling aggressive or frustrated.
