Body language - all around

Introduction

There are some things I need to clarify about body language before you continue reading.

Reading Body Language

In case you’re chatting with someone, it is fairly likely that you must be keen to know as to what must be going on in other person’s head. While you can’t do any mind reading, there is always a chance of reading the body language. Reading body language is an easy thing to do, provided you comply with the given suggestions properly.
In case you wish to read body language, then start off by reading the hands. If the hands of a person are open, it could suggest that he / she is relaxed and comfortable. Open palms mean that the defenses of a person are relaxed. However, in case an individual has absolutely tight palms, then it may convey anger or even restlessness.
When observing hands, pay close attention to the fingers as well. If a lady or a male is moving her/his fingers around the rim of a glass, then it may indicate a seductive gesture. Drumming or tapping with the fingers could indicate frustration.
Though various body parts can convey a lot of things, it is eyes that communicate the most. It isn’t stated without a cause that eyes are windows to the soul. If the pupils of the person you’re talking to are dilated, then this could imply that he/she is interested in the topic. Of course, dilation of pupils could also be a result of low quality contact lenses. So, it is important that you look for other than the eyes too.
Direction of gaze has critical role to play in understanding the body language better. Side gaze is indicative that the person is feeling guilty. On the contrary a direct eye to eye gaze suggests that the person is confident enough. If he/she gazes at the floor for long, it could indicate shame.
If a person is rubbing their chin, it usually suggests that the individual is thinking. In a few cases, it could also be considered as an act of restlessness. However, don’t get confused by the rubbing of chin if a person has acne. He may be doing so to ease the itching accompanied with pimples and zits. Make sure that you recommend the Exposed Skincare System to him / her.
Another important body language sign to watch out for is mimicry. If the individual you are in conversation with is trying to mimic you, it is quite likely that he/she appreciates you. This also indicates that he/she is comfortable in your company. So, don’t get offended if the person begins mimicking you.
It will take some time before you begin to interpret body language in the correct way. But, till then keep practicing.

How to Detect Female Flirting Body Language

Detecting female flirting body language can often be a challenging task. Females do send various body languages while talking to men where it becomes difficult for men to perceive what sort of body language or signs they are sending. They send positive, negative and sometimes mixed feelings both consciously and unconsciously and it is up to the men to take the correct interpretation.
Extra effort is needed to decode the signals when a female is trying to send to a man. It is very important for the man to be in his natural way to read the signals properly. He should not overact and try to pretend to be someone he is not. It is then that a female goes on to give more proper and true signals through her body language and it is up to the man to catch hold of them.
Flirting body language signals from a woman can range from a simple smile to any amount of increasing attention over the opposite person. This can include touching the hair, murmuring or even an eye-contact.
Eye-contact is the most basic flirting signal and an excellent way to show attraction. Women tend not to break the eye-contact even as the man keeps looking into her eyes; and add a couple of shy glances and fleeting looks in between and it is the responsibility of the man to catch hold of them. Some women try to toss their hair from one side to another to allow men to have a look at their neck. This is a positive gesture and the man should immediately read that she is interested in him. Also it should be observed the way they push their fingers through their hair. Slow and careful pushing of the fingers give positive signals to the men whereas quick and nervy movements of her fingers through the hair disclose some sort of embarrassment or impatience.
Gentle touching on the arms or shoulders of the man provides signals that the woman is interested. She is trying to flirt with her body language.
Most often, women try to become more closer to the men they are interested by teasing them quite often, laugh and talk loudly when in a conversation and sometimes get playful with him. Women can easily grasp men’s attentions towards them and it is the duty of the men not to get misled by her signals. They need to maintain their composure though they see the positive signs and soon they can sense the females sending more and more flirting signals through their body language. Another way to grab a man’s attention is entwining her legs. This body language of women attracts a man and she can easily read the opposite person’s intention as such.
Leaning back with arms folded, changing the topic during a conversation, leaning on her hand with her chin and eyes that seem to think something are negative signals being passed and the man should encounter that she is not really interested in him.
Therefore, it always becomes important to properly read the flirting body language signals sent by the woman to know whether she is really getting interested in the man or not.

Sexy Body Language Tips For The First Date

You are on your first date with your dream date. Sexual body language signals to tell you they are hot for you. Tips on flirting for the successful dating game.

1: Gazing adoringly. When attracted to someone, we all have problems shifting our gaze. Even when the object of our lust has ceased speaking, the lustful stare is still happening. To be a little provocative, use this to your advantage, and during a pause in conversation, keep your eyes on your date to the silent count of five. Conversely, the more often your date blinks, the more nervous they are.
2: Hands. Clenched fists, tightly knitted hands or hands pressed against the mouth indicate nervousness and tension. Worse still, is if their hands are holding up their head as this shows total boredom, or they are about to collapse with fatigue or alcohol. Anxious people tend to
hold their own hands or fidget with objects on the table. Hands placed openly with palms facing upwards on the table indicate a more relaxed open person. If you are terribly nervous, try having your hands loosely clasped on the table, as this gives off better vibes than gripping your fingers together or folding your arms. Placing your hands on your chest while speaking makes you appear lively and truthful.
3: Volume of speech. If they consider you their equivalent, their tone won’t be too high or too low. Very loud voices tend to belong to dominant personalities and very soft veer to the meek.
4: Subconscious autoerotic touching. Sexy thinking leads us to subconsciously touch ourselves, for several reasons. Firstly, to gain attention to various body parts. Guys and girls will both stroke their lips and girls will rub their upper arms, thighs, hips and waists. Secondly, we touch ourselves to tease the other. Thirdly, when sexually excited, blood is rushing around engorging extremities, making everything supersensitive. Touching ourselves then feels good.
5: Mouth. A very strong sexual body language gesture is when your date starts to eat, drink or smoke faster. Thinking about sex gets you touching your mouth. Putting things in your mouth can imply that you are interested sexually. Girls lick ice cream cones, play with spoons and suck their fingers.
6: Her Hair. Interested girls will start playing with their hair. Fluffing her hair, stroking her hair, and the strongest of all, the flick of the hair, are all body language signals of availability or flirting. However, if she should start to hide behind her hair she is showing disinterest.
7: Fiddling Guys. As guys become more sexually excited they start to give off their own flirting signals. These can include rubbing his nose, playing with his tie, sliding rings over fingers, and fiddling with loose coins in his pocket. Adjusting his hair is a sign that he is wanting to look good for you.
8:Checking out your butt. If you catch your date checking out your butt when you leave the table to visit the bar or bathroom, then they are having lustful thoughts.
9: Symbolically stripping. Undoing buttons, loosening ties, removing jackets and pushing up sleeves are all strong sexual body language gestures. Publicly undressing without realizing it ,is mother nature’s way of getting us naked with someone we share sexual chemistry with.
10: Touching. Unsure where the date is going? Try the touch test. Touch their hand, arm or shoulder. Unless they are shy, they should return the touch within 10 minutes if they like you.
On a good first date , there should be three sets of touching for three seconds each time.
11: The wineglass. The date is a winner if he is rubbing the rim of his glass with his fingers. Likewise, if she is stroking her glass up and down. If she is also making direct eye contact and playing with her straw she is definitely flirting. However, wine glasses held at chest height or higher are a sign that there will not be a second date. Likewise, if your date wraps both their hands around their glass.
The wineglass test. This is a great subconscious body language test to gauge that first date. Start playing with an object from your side of the table eg: wineglass, spoon etc. Lean forward just slightly and subtly move it just onto your date’s side of the table. Remove your hands, lean back and keep talking. If your date absentmindedly pushes it back to you they are not interested. If they leave it where it is, or hold it, you are in luck. To take it further, push another object their way and leave your arms on the table. The keen date will now lean forward as well and push something from their side of the table over to you.
12: Kiss, kiss. All these are strong signals that your date is receptive to a kiss: touching their mouth, licking their lips, putting their head close to yours, eating and drinking seductively, and tilting their head while looking at you.
Start the kiss with a soft light brush against their lips. If they pull back, clench their lips or slap your face, you should stop! If they lean in, part their lips or touch the back of your neck they are happy to continue.
The art of flirting through nonverbal communication has never been easier! Use this dating advice for interpreting body language and sending out your own sexual signals. Flirt that first date into a second date!

Understanding Male Body Language Flirting

Women need to observe every single detail a man behaves through his body language in order to know if he is trying to flirt or not. The extra movements a man does are signs indicating his flirting body language. A man needs to be looked beyond the obvious signals that he sends in order to know his flirting nature. A woman also needs to check the consistency of the signals that he is sending to interpret them in the right manner and know the correct meaning behind them.
Men entering the room walking slowly and standing tall with no other extra movements gives the hint to the women that he is self-confident by nature. Women should concentrate more on the non-verbal leakage a man provides, i.e. the way he moves his arms and fingers, the tossing of his head etc. If a man leans forward and frequently keeps moving his hands and plays with his fingers does not mean he is interested in the opposite sex. A man flexes his muscles and sucks in his gut whenever he finds a woman attractive and wants her attraction on his side.
Most of the men try to send a bunch of signals at which point the woman should catch any of them in order to know his intentions. He sends them in order to convey their message to them and tells his feelings through his body language. The best flirting sign a man uses is maintaining an eye-contact. He does not want to break the eye-contact when a woman maintains the same and does not remove the eye-contact unless he sees a shy glance or simple smile from her. This is the first and simple sign a man uses to show his flirting nature.
Another flirting body language approach men use is show their masculine nature to the women opposite. They tend to hook their thumbs behind the belt and often tend to make themselves look bigger. If a man finds a woman very attractive and wants her to be his, then one can observe his lips slowly part naturally and the man keeps looking at her in sheer amazement. It is then that a girl can catch hold of his intentions.
Men also try to keep stroking their ties when in formal attires only to make the opposite sex gain some attention of how smartly he is dressed and send signs that he is interested in talking to her. When in a lively conversation, most often the men tend to lend their jackets or coats to the women showing their direct signs of flirting. It is also that few of the women like this angle of flirting and wait for the man to lend their coats.
Men do try to keep touching a part of the female’s clothes or body when she is sitting or standing nearby only to try to get her attention on you. Most of the girls like men to whisper and men tend to do so by saying a word or two in her private space.
Women therefore need to concentrate more on the non-verbal clues a man sends in order to know his flirtatious body language and to interpret the signals correctly and know his intentions.

Reading Body Gestures In Ladies

Body language is another means of expressing one’s thought or sentiments. It is a conceivable manifestation of a message conveyed.
Wouldn’t you like to know how to interpret body languages? Wouldn’t it be nice to know how someone feels or thinks about you? Can you tell by the way a person acts if he or she is being honest and sincere? Or perhaps you aspire to unknowingly leave an excellent impact on anybody without actually saying anything. Do you want to know how? Read on to find out how to be able to interpret body languages.
There are elements that you have to take into account if you want to interpret body gestures. And they are poise, body contact and eye contact.
Eye to Eye Contact
Among the others, this particular aspect is regarded as the most powerful. It may be direct or indirect, and duration varies from short to long.
However, looking at a person straight in the eyes for sometime may be perceived as staring. Take note, this can be uneasy for the other person.
Meanwhile, if a person is comfortable enough with whom he is talking to, he can keep eye contact. But if a person is guilty of something, or afraid or uncomfortable, he cannot maintain eye contact.
Position
Your bearing and posture has a lot to say about you, specifically with how you regard yourself. Are you confident? In addition, body languages of people talking to each other decipher the chemistry they have together. To establish better rapport together, share similar body language.
Sometimes, this comes out naturally between individuals. Moreover, is there any particular posture that eases up self-esteem? Try to take notice how one stands or sits down when under a lot of pressure.
At times when you feel uneasy or nervous, situate yourself with the proper posture which you feel better and more confident. Keep a positive thinking too and eventually, it will emanate from you.
Body Connection
If you do not want to be referred to as the aggressive sort of person, then do not shake hands too hard or crush the other person’s hand. The ideal handshake and deemed as proper is firm, while a weaker shake hand is said to convey how a weakling the person may be. Yes, handshakes tell different opinions about you as it is the most practiced form of body contact.
Apparently, people regard body contact in various manners. For those who are used to it because of their accepting culture about physical connections, naturally they are more open and accepting. But different views may be heard from individuals who do not share the same culture. Therefore, you have to clarify with your partner his or her stand about body contact.
Since everyone reacts to gestures and actions differently, it is best if each individual will learn to cater their movements according to the person they are dating or are with, because if not, both person and relationship may be hurt along the way.
Finally, be more attentive than you usually are. Try to read the signs and see if you get it right what the other individual wants to tell you.

Interpreting Body Language Attraction Signals and Gestures of the Opposite Sex

Did you know that the body language of both males and females will change dramatically when in the presence of the opposite sex. For instance, a man will automatically straighten up his body, stand a little taller, and avoiding all those common slumping or slouching postures.

When a man is in the company of a woman he’s interested in, he will try his best to appear more dominant by pulling in his stomach and expanding his chest out.
Let’s say coincidentally the woman he likes here shares the same interest and is taking a fancy to this man, she will also automatically display herself being submissive by gestures like turning and exposing her wrists, tilting her head a bit, and touching her hair.
The interesting thing is the gestures of this man and woman were delivered subconsciously on an automatic response mode. Well, there are of course those intended and coordinated attraction and flirting gestures that were made consciously.
What Type of Attraction Gestures Men Use
Men basically do not have a large inventory of attraction and flirting gestures compared to women. When a man is interested in a woman, he will just focus his gestures to display his masculinity and the macho-man image.
His gestures normally will begin with patting his hair into place, smooth and straighten his clothes, adjust his tie if he is wearing one, and often thrust his chin forward. At the same time, he will extend out his chest, straighten his back, and draw in his stomach as mentioned earlier on.
A man normally will display his masculinity and dominance by tucking his thumbs into his belt, and pointing them at his crotch. This is in fact a very common sight of men using gestures to emphasize on his manhood.
What Type of Attraction Gestures Women Use
On the contrary, when a woman is interested in a guy, she will blast out tons of signs and signals to notify him of her feelings. Unfortunately on the down side here is that many men are totally oblivious to these signs and signals. Making things worse, women sometimes unintentionally send out mixed signals when trying to manipulate the men into displaying their feelings for her. Very often this will end up with the men confused and resulting with them avoiding and not approaching her.
In a room, when a woman finds the man she is attracted to, she will normally gaze at him until she seizes his attention and thus forming the first visual contact. She will then hold on to this eye contact for two to three seconds before looking elsewhere. Subsequently, she will further display other gestures to express her interest in this particular guy.
One of the gestures most commonly used by a woman around a man she is attracted to is the hair flicking gesture. What happens here is that the woman will flick her hair away from a face or over her shoulder in a sensual way. Surprisingly, this gesture is also performed by many women with short hair.
When a woman slowly and suggestively caress her neck or thigh, she is implying to the man that he might be able to touch her in these ways too if he can captivate and mesmerize her to her delight. This is the self stroking gesture which is frequently used by women.
Another gesture to watch out for is the droopy wrist gesture. This gesture is often used for the maximum effect when fondling a cylindrical item. Women like to use this gesture to make a guy feel that he could have full control of her. This droopy wrist gesture is perceived by many men as a submission signal.
A similar seductive gesture used by women to draw in the man will be the neck baring gesture. This is another submissive gesture seen by men in the same way as the droopy wrist gesture. As how it is suggested here, the woman will bare her neck to the man by tilting her head to one side of her shoulder.
Is He/She Already Seeing Someone Else?
When a person sees someone they are interested in, most often the reason that is stopping them from walking over to that person to chat up is the thought that maybe this particular person is not single and already seeing someone else. Hence, bringing forth the notion of maybe that someone else is around there, or might be arriving soon.
Picture this scenario at a bar, a beautiful lady is attracted to this charming and good looking guy within a group of people standing across the room. She then uses the gazing technique to establish eye contact indicating she is interested in him.
The guy seemed to be a bit oblivious to her signals, or maybe he’s just a little bit on the shy side. So the lady decides maybe instead she should go over there and give this shy guy the opportunity to strike up a conversation with her. As she was about to move, a lovely lady joined the group and is now standing next to the charming guy. Apparently this lovely lady seems to be from that same group too, and she appears to be quite close to that guy.
Now the question “Are they a couple?” pops up in this beautiful lady’s mind. She’s contemplating whether should she just stay put where she is, or still proceed to go over there? Most often and most likely, just to play it safe, the decision will be to stay where she is to avoid any awkward or embarrassing situation.
My Own Intimate Zone
Not only it’s natural, but also a proven scientific fact that how much closer two people sit, stand, or lie next to each other, is very much akin to how close and intimate they are emotionally to each other.
Each and every person has got their own intimate zone. The size of this zone may vary a little bit from one person to another person but only at a minimal rate. It begins with the body itself, extending as far as one and a half feet/half a meter from it. To that person, everything within this intimate zone “belongs” to them, or considered as “theirs”.
Parents, siblings, spouses, lovers, children, close relatives and very close friends will normally stand within 18 inches/50 centimeters of each other. Like them, only those who are considered as emotionally close to us may be allowed to break through this space barrier and enter the intimate zone. Any uninvited stranger that enters this zone will be look upon as an act of intimidation and hostility, prompting the person to move away from the intruder immediately.
This is perhaps the main reason why people will stay for years with the same doctor, or dentist, even traveling miles to get there, rather than subject themselves to the stress of allowing a stranger into their intimate zone.
High Touch Properties
Generally people will touch things, or lean against something that they feel is theirs. They do this in many different ways using fingers, arms, feet, and even buttocks. For instance, a person will sometimes lean on the walls with their back and shoulder, or lean on the tables with their buttocks when they are at their own home. However, you will not be able to witness these behaviors if they are in the homes of people they are unfamiliar with.
The same rules apply here with couples holding hands, brushing each other’s arms as they walk, or tidying and adjusting each other’s clothes. One of the most common signals that you will always notice everywhere will be the way women demonstrates ownership to her man by placing her palm flat on his chest. The same kind of display can also be seen here when a man places his hand on the waist or back of his partner.
Beauty, They Say, Is In The Eye of The Beholder
There is a great difference between what is attractive to men and women, which are believed to be originated from our prehistoric ancestors of hunters (male) and food gatherers (female).
Women in general tends to be attracted to men who are powerful, assertive and independent, the qualities which highly suggest the person as a capable provider and a reliable father for their children. On the other hand, what men find attractive in women is usually based more on their visually attractive exterior.
In both cases, as men or women, by emphasizing on these qualities, we would always hope to make ourselves more attractive (beauty or personality) to the opposite sex and have a wider selection of possible mates to chose from.
While interest in others is demonstrated by body language, we should never use it to manipulate others. Truly attractive people are those who see themselves as who they really are, and always believing in themselves.

Attraction and Body Language Signs You Must Know

Majority of men in all over the world has lesser penchant for words compared to women. They relay on simple body language to show their anger, happiness, sadness and even attraction towards women. Men who do not know how to express their emotions well be more prone to commit domestic violence towards their spouse. This is a big show of action. However, men are also unknowingly sending out smaller signals throughout the day.
Men’s body language can be sent from their face, their hand gestures, legs position and body posture. Attraction and body language goes hand in hand. It is difficult for a man to hide their attraction towards a woman especially when he is also sexually yearning for her. Hiding sweaty palms in pockets, using their handkerchief to wipe their forehead, these are all signs from men who are nervous when faced with women they are attracted to. Subtle actions like winking or lifting of eye brows can be a cute playful sign to show women that they are giving them extra attention or they are amused. When men felt intimidated or cornered during conflicts, they will fold their arms across their chest which acts as a protective barrier of sort. Men in serious thought will stroke their chin; when in deep complex thought will pinch the bridge of their nose; and when in frustration will pull their hair or clench their fist.
Body language signs allow men to show how strong they are, to rise above others and to let women know they are searching for a mate. The stronger the maleness from their body language, the more women will be attracted to them. Body language is not something that can be taught. They are developed as men grow up. A born leader will have body language of a leader while a cowardly wimp will have body language of a wimp. Women can read it and detect what kind of man the person is.
Men’s body language is the best kind of straight forward non-verbal communication. Largely perfected for hunting and mating in the ancient times, men are still unconsciously using it to hunt for their prey. Giving long eye contact is a sure way to let a woman know that he has his eyes and heart glued on her. Eyes tilted to one side or focusing on other things will show that the man is bored and has his attention elsewhere. When a man is lying, he will usually make a lot of hand gestures and touching of face. An annoyed man will stand with legs apart ready to launch an attack.
Body language signs are easily interpreted when it comes from a man. They are not known for pretending by using body language. That is why most male criminals easily gave away their guilt when confronted during interrogations. Women on the other hand can be good actors using body language and fake emotions. They can cry even when they are not sad or smile when they are not happy.
