Attention, Men! 4 Signs That She's Into You
You are at a bar. You notice a woman. She notices you. You move closer, drink in hand.
She tosses her hair and crosses her legs. Does it mean anything? You bet. More than 70% of communication between humans is non-verbal, meaning you can learn a lot — and save yourself from potential embarrassment — just by watching a potential love interest.
Clue #1: She's all decked out
According to body-language expert Patti Wood, a woman's appearance can translate into how much attention she needs and is willing to give. "When a woman takes care of herself, men assume she'll be able to take care of them," she says. But if her appearance is perfectly flawless, that is the standard she'll measure you by.
Clue #2: She licks her lips
"There is a certain kind of lip-licking that means she's interested," says Wood. "Look for a slow movement of just the upper part of the tongue across the lips. A woman has to make an effort to do that, so it's very come-hither."
Clue #3: She tosses her hair
"Any kind of preening is a woman's attempt to get noticed," Wood explains. One particularly good sign: "If she flips her hair back with her wrist exposed, she's opening herself up to you." Any exaggerated hair toss, as opposed to a quick sweep of the bangs, is a positive thing.
Clue #4: Her feet face you
"Where the feet go, the heart follows," explains Wood. "If a woman is into you, the bottom portion of her body will face you. If her lower body is turned away, chances are it's a lack of interest." Even when she's talking to other guys, if her feet are pointed toward you, she's interested.
Now that you know how to decode body language, get out there and use this info to approach the women who are interested in you — and not bother with those who aren't.
