Body Language: Flirting Signs

Flirting is a way of showing interest in the person of the opposite sex. So, if you want to know whether a person is attracted to you, knowing about body language flirting signs will be helpful. This article will give you some tips on recognizing whether a person is flirting with you by observing his body language.


Did you know that we actually convey more about our thoughts and attitude to others through our body language than through spoken words. When we meet people, our attitude or what we feel about them can be determined by our body language. This applies even when a person flirts with an individual of the opposite sex. It is said that through the way a man talks to a woman can help in understanding that he is attracted to her, his body language actually says more than his words. Moreover, sometimes, people try to hide their actual feelings about the other person, but their body language can reveal their inner feelings. So, if you like someone and want to know whether he/she has the same feelings for you, observing his body language for flirting signs can definitely help. Here are some body language flirting signs that are common to men as well as women.


Body Language for Flirting


As I said earlier, there is definitely a connection between body language and attraction. In other words, when we are attracted to someone, our body starts sending cues to the other person which sometimes even we do not realize. However, not all body language flirting signs are done in a subconscious way. Rather, there are many people who are an expert in the art of flirting through non verbal communication and use it in a way of expressing their attraction. As people use these flirting body language signs when they are around the person they are attracted to, it is important for people to know about female as well as male body language flirting signs in detail.


Body language flirting signs can either indicate romantic interest or may be sexual overtures. Though body language flirting signs of men and women are different, there are some signs that are shown by both. Flirtatious gestures can be exhibited not only through one's body postures, but also through one's facial expressions and eye contacts. So, here are some signs that may indicate that the person whom you are having a conversation with is attracted to you.


Body Language Flirting Signs #01


Eyes convey a lot of things that even words cannot. So, one of the most common as well as the most important body language flirting signs is the eye contact. A person who is interested in you, not only will look at you, but will hold your eye contact for a few minutes. If you have observed a woman sitting across the room making frequent eye contacts with you, chances are there that she is interested in you. Apart from this, raised eyebrows can also be the sign of flirting. More on flirting body language of men.

Smiling is one of the common male and female body language flirting signs. A pleasant smile which reveals the upper as well as the lower teeth is a sign that explains that he/she is pleased to be in the other person's company. Laughter is also another sign that shows that the person sitting opposite to you is interested in you. If your companion is laughing at all your jokes and one liners, even though they are not very funny, chances are that he/she finds you attractive. More on signs of male attraction.


Body Language Flirting Signs #03


It has been observed that men and women who indulge in flirting are seen to fiddle a lot with their hands. For instance, women are likely to play with their earrings and necklaces while conversing with men they are interested in. Also, some women indulge in flicking their hair or may be twirling and twisting their strands in front of the person they like. This applies to the men folk too. Usually, while having a conversation with women they are interested in, men try to straighten their hair or straighten their neckties like they are unconsciously trying to look well groomed. It has also been observed that men constantly touch their face while looking or talking to the woman they are interested in. More on flirting body language of women.

Many times, while talking to the person of the opposite sex, men as well as women try to mirror the other person, though usually in a subconscious way. If you have observed two lovers talking in a restaurant, you may observe that they are mirroring each others body language as well as body positions. This is one of the very common male as well as female body language flirting signs. Other than this, leaning towards the person and lightly touching the other person's shoulder, arm or knee are also some obvious signs of flirting.
