When a man touches your hands and other bodily demonstrations

How many times has this happened to you?

A nice guy strikes up a conversation with you and you nod your head until he leaves. Then you turn your head to where your friend is and he tells you: “That boy is totally crazy about you!”.

That?

You had no idea!

It is more common than you think. Women often miss the signs that men are interested in them. For example: when they touch your hands in an absent-minded way, stand close to you, or raise their eyebrows, when they see you walk into the room.

But don’t worry, you can learn to interpret these body language signs with what we’ll tell you next.

When a man touches your hands and 24 other signs that he likes you

1) He touches your hands

This is one of the most common signs when someone likes you.

In certain situations you may come to think that it was an accident, when that boy passed by you and gently brushed your hand.

But there is still something inside you that has mobilized at that moment and made you ask:

What was that?

Women have a more refined perception of things. When a situation like this happens to you, like the one above, trust your instincts.

2) His posture is open

What is an open posture?

Jaw relaxed, arms uncrossed, feet shoulder-width apart.

It means relaxed body language.

If a guy has an open posture, when you are around, it means that your presence makes him feel comfortable.

While it’s not a sure sign that he likes you, it definitely means he’s not disinterested!

3) His pupils dilate when he sees you

He is not shocked. So why are his pupils dilated?

The answer is, because he is enchanted by you.

If his pupils get bigger and bigger while he’s talking to you, it could be a subtle indication that he’s very interested in you.

4) He raises his eyebrows when he sees you

People raise their eyebrows, when they see someone, as a universal way of communicating a welcome greeting. On the contrary, it would be, if he raises only one eyebrow, since this denotes anger or threat.

If he raises both eyebrows rapidly when he sees you walk into the room, he is subconsciously saying that he is very happy to see you.

5) He slows down his breathing

Whenever you’re around, his breathing slows down pleasantly.

He doesn’t puff like he just exhausted himself from the gym.

Instead, your breathing seems to simply slow down and become lighter.

Again, this is because his body relaxes in your presence, as he feels at ease when you are around.

6) Tilt your head

We all know how puppies tilt their heads towards a sound they just heard.

It may surprise you to know that people do it too, when we feel attracted to what we hear from someone.

It is a way of showing a visual interest in what is being heard or seen.

If you start talking to him and he cocks his head in response, it’s showing that he’s very interested in what you’re talking about.

7) He played with her neck

Maybe he loosens his tie when you two talk. Or, if he’s not dressed in a formal way, you find that he casually touches his neck when he talks.

The neck traditionally represents vulnerability. If a guy touches his throat while he’s talking to you, he’s secretly letting you know that he’s letting his guard down.

8) He blushes when you’re around

Sometimes, when a guy really likes a girl, his body reacts to the positive stress it brings.

This reaction takes the form of flushing on the face, where blood rushes towards it, giving it a reddish coloration.

The particular thing about them is that nothing shameful provoked it. Instead, it’s because of his attraction to you, which caused him to blush.

9) He smiles with his mouth open

Smiling with your mouth closed is a form of closed body language. He is aloof and not attractive.

However, if he smiles with his mouth open, he is subconsciously showing that he is opening up to you.

He is happy to see you and you make him feel really comfortable.

10) He walks by your side

If a man takes the time to adjust to your pace and walk beside you, instead of leading or following you, he’s doing it to spend more time close to you.

He is doing this to be considerate.

Additionally, you want to increase the amount of time you have to talk together and for you to be able to look at him while you talk.

11) He stands close to you

If the two of you strike up a conversation, don’t be surprised if he ends up much closer to you, midway through the conversation.

Also, you may have noticed that she’s been taking steps to make each word feel more intimate and connected. This is definitely a sign that he likes you a lot.

But I don’t mean being so close to you that it looks like it’s about to touch your nose, that would be creepy. What I do mean is the distance of a few steps.

If you find that the guy you’re talking to keeps moving closer and closer to you, it’s probably a sure sign that he’s into you too much.

He can’t help but want you around.

12) He places his hands on her waist

Does he put his hands on his hips and open his elbows out?

This is a typical male power stance.

He’s meant to project confidence and superiority to other men in the room, which means he wants to discourage them from flirting with you, while he puts on the charm.

13) Your palms get sweaty

Sweaty palm is an unmistakable indication that he is nervous about you.

Not all men are very confident, when it comes to dating.

Instead, the thought of impressing you might make him a little anxious and insecure. As a result, his hands may start to sweat.

14) He is stunned by your face

You may have noticed that his eyes are never far from your face. But, instead of making eye contact with you, she seems to always be looking at your lips.

This is a subtle sign that he’s paying close attention to what you’re saying, and that he’s fallen for you in the process.

Secretly imagine what it would be like to kiss you and have you next to him.

15) It touches your knee

When the two of you are sitting next to each other, he may very casually place his hand on your leg, probably around the kneecap.

This is a test to see how you feel about him initiating physical contact in a slightly more forward manner.

Are you receptive about it?

Or will you move your leg to quickly remove his hand?

He is looking to measure your response to these types of contacts.

Be sure to respond appropriately to let him know what you really want!

16) He tucks your hair gently behind your ear

With this gesture he is testing to see how you feel before a more intimate physical contact.

This type of maneuver can also be very romantic and convey deep affinity.

And you, do you have a subtle body language that also communicates your desires to him?

Have you blushed?

Or does his way of acting scare you a little?

17) He subtly brushes some part of your body

It’s about that intentional, yet gentle physical contact so that you perceive it as flirting.

It could be a light brush of the fingertips against the forearm, or perhaps a gentle hand on the waist.

Once again, you are looking for openings to create moments of physical intimacy in order to build attraction.

Pay attention and if you like it, play along!

18) He Points His Toes At You

When you are standing or even sitting, you will notice that both feet are pointing in your direction.

If you move a little to the left, his toes will again seek to point towards you. Move to the right, and they will move to that side too.

And most striking of all, you probably won’t even realize you’re doing it!

19) He tilts his pelvis towards you

If he really likes you, he’s not going to stop just by pointing his toes at you. Her pelvis will be pointing towards you when you are speaking. It doesn’t matter if you are standing or sitting.

This is a very expressive sexual sign that he is physically attracted to you and wants you to himself in a more intimate way.

20) He spreads his legs when he sits down

We are not talking about the common posture that a man takes when traveling on the bus or on the train.

We refer to an open body posture, when both are sitting, facing each other.

If he uncrosses or spreads his legs, when the two of you can see each other directly, he is showing that he is delighted with you.

He’s subconsciously suggesting that he’s, ahem, open to whatever is with you.

21) He plays with his glass, when they are talking

This can be an indicator that a guy is a little nervous and not sure what to talk about.

If he’s playing with his glass while the two of you are trying to have a good time, he’s probably trying to think of what he could say to impress you!

22) He stumbles over his own words

Some guys are just stutterers, but this is different if this guy is usually the most fluent conversationalist in the bar.

If you notice that this same man becomes a jumble of words every time you speak, it is likely that he has become nervous in your presence.

Why are you nervous?

Because he likes you and wants to impress you.

Take his tongue twisters as an admission that he has feelings for you and it’s not just friendship!

23) He changes the tone of his voice

Every time the two of them start talking, their pitch seems to drop an octave. It is a softer, calmer and deeper voice.

Also the conversation becomes more relaxing and pleasant.

When a man slows down and lowers his speech next to you, it’s a sure sign that he’s interested in you!

24) Act like a gentleman

Every time you walk into the room, he always gets up from his chair.

He will also be happy to take your coat when you come in and pull up your chair so you can sit down.

If you get the slightest chill, he’ll offer you his jacket almost immediately.

Being attentive to your immediate needs means that he cares about you.

25) Minimize interruptions and distractions

Does the cell phone ring while you talk?

But he sends it straight to voice mail. Better yet, she silences him.

When a man is interested in you, he eliminates any potential interruptions or distractions.

He will keep conversations with others with a minimum of courtesy, so that he can focus his attention on you.

The person that really interests him is you. No other person will be able to interfere with that.

Final thoughts

Men make a lot of subconscious and conscious signals that they use to show that they are interested in a woman.

When a man initiates gentle physical contact, he speaks through body language, which tries to create intimacy.

There are many different ways to do this. It can be through a soft voice and open body postures. So you can be…
