Men are notorious for not being very perceptive when it comes to the signals that women give out. Women have been frustrated for centuries by the fact that their sensual attempts to be subtle go largely unnoticed by the men they’re trying to attract. For the men, it’s just as frustrating. Men sit there talking to a woman wondering if she’s actually flirting with him and he should ask her out or if her actions are merely a coincidence. Stop wondering, here are some ways to tell if she’s flirting with you or just waiting for the next guy to come around.
She touches you
One of the universally flirtatious acts is touching. It goes back to elementary school really. You remember the boy that would hit and tease the girl that he liked? As adults we’ve hopefully grown up from those days, but the basic premise remains the same. If a woman is constantly finding ways to touch you while you talk to her, it’s a good sign that she’s flirting with you. Whether it’s a soft brush across the arm or a playful nudge, touching is a really good sign.
Her body language is engaging
Most people say that you can always tell if a woman likes you by her body language. But how do you know what body language is good, and what signs to look for? Basically, whenever a woman’s body language is engaging towards your personal space, it’s a good sign. If you’re both sitting and talking and she’s facing you with her legs pointing towards you, that’s a good sign. Women will lean in to talk to you if they’re interested and the rest of the body language will be inviting to you and your conversation. That’s how you know she’s being a little flirty with you. If her body is pointing away from you and away from your conversation, she’s probably not interested.
She looks into your eyes when you talk
When a woman looks straight into your eyes when you’re talking to her, it shows that she’s interested in you, in what you have to say, or both. Usually when we’re out somewhere talking to a stranger that we’re not interested in our eyes wonder, trying to see what else (and who else) is going on. Eye contact is a good sign in any situation, but when it’s with a woman you just met, it shows that there is something there.
She asks to see you again
The most obvious way to know she’s flirting with you is that she asks (or hints) to see you again! If you get to this point there’s not much decoding to do. Women don’t usually ask men to hang out again unless they’re really interested and they’re not sure that the men will ask them before the night is over. So, if she does ask to spend some more time then stop wondering! Take charge and show her a good time.
Sometimes it can be hard to know whether or not a women is flirting with you or not. There are some telltale signs that have to do with common human social behaviors like touching, eye contact, and body language. If you can notice the little things, you’ll give yourself a little bit of an edge, find those mutual attractions, or at the very least save yourself a little embarrassment.
