How to Tell When a Guy is Interested

MICHELE E. GWYNN
Many ladies have now asked the question, hard on the heels of "How to tell When a Guy is Not Interested", how do you then tell when a guy actually is interested? Well! Let me tell you that body language is a powerful tool and one we all wield unconsciously every single day. Learning to recognize the little signals that guys send out to show he's interested will help you ladies to respond with those subtle, primitive yet sophisticated signals that make them jump up and down, squawking excitedly like a baboon at the zoo, when they smell the scent of a woman in heat. Are you ready to make a love-monkey out of him?

1.Men are attracted to all kinds of women but the one thing you can do to get his attention is to make eye contact. It's that simple and the longer you maintain that contact the better. I'm not saying to stare him down like you have toothpicks propping up your eyelids, but give him a good, warm look, then coyly drop your eyes and look away. This is the first signal to a man that you would be interested in getting to know him better. If he is interested, he will still be looking at you when you shyly look up again. If he's truly open to meeting you, he'll smile at you. If you smile back and his interest is at an all time peak wattage, he'll start to make his way over to you. Congrats! You have just hooked a fish.

2.If you're sitting at a table having drinks with a hot guy and you wonder if he's interested in you and not just passing time, pay attention to how close he is to you. Is he leaning in? Is he facing you with legs wide open? If his legs are crossed, is the leg on top coming towards you? If the answer to any of these questions is yes, he is interested.

3.Same scenario but another trick to understanding his level of interest. While chatting, slowly move your glass or anything else on the table to his side of that imaginary line that divides you two. Make it look unintentional and almost playful but then, stop playing with and pushing the object and pull your hand back to your side of the table. If he leaves the object where you placed it, he's interested. If he actually touches it and starts to play with it also as you did, he's really interested!

4.If the hot guy starts running his hand over his face in a pseudo caress while he is talking to you (like rubbing his jaw, running a finger over his lips which means he's thinking about kissing you), he is thinking about sex with you and is unconsciously wishing to caress you and not his own face. You got him girl!

5.If the guy places his hand on the small of your back while walking, he is leading you where he wants you to go and is claiming you as his own. It's like he's announcing to the men in the room "She's mine, stay away".

6.If a guy keeps finding reasons to touch you, i.e. tucking your hair back from your face while you're talking, touching a piece of jewelry you're wearing while he compliments it or even your shirt or shoes; as long as the compliment is followed by him touching you to emphasize what he's saying, he is definitely interested in you.

Now that you know what to look for, you should know a few little sexy moves that will cement the deal and make him be your private little monkey.
1.When he looks at you, smile! Guys always notice a great smile. It is a universal sign of acceptance.

2.Flip your hair over your shoulder and then look away with a secret smile on your lips.

3.Cross your legs and smooth your hands down to your knees. An interested male will follow your movements and think it's hot.

4.Bite your lip seductively but don't make it look planned. His eyes will automatically go to your mouth and he will be thinking, again, about kissing you.

5.Touch his arm while you two are talking. If he moves in closer, he is responding to your signal with a signal of his own. It says he wants more.

6.Look him deep in the eyes while you chat. The brain interprets deep eye contact over a period of time as....love! Yes it's true. You can trick his brain into thinking he is in love with you. When two people are in love, they gaze adoringly into each others eyes so when you hold his gaze, his brain (the one on top of his neck) starts to identify you as someone he loves. Chemicals get released in the brain and hormones start to flow and before you know...Ba Da Bing!

Okay ladies, now go out and get some practical experience in recognizing, eliciting, and successfully responding to those silent body language signals. Have fun! Go get your man!

    let's be brutally honest. signs to look for that you are a short term prop to the dude: he plays with your hair, he showers right after sex and leaves, he calls you babe/honey, he never sends you cards, you only go to his place for sex or he only goes to your place for sex, he never wears a condom because that is an inconvenience to him, he says something stupid like RELAX, the guy likes sports and hangs out with his buddies every Sunday. Men, real men, have real interests and are philanthropic. Don't waste your time that is a manbitch.

    Thanks for the information. I guess I should be more aware of the signals I am giving off and what she is showing.
