3 Signs That He Really Does Like You

By Alexandra Peterson


Do you wonder if that guy you like has romantic feelings for you? Are you afraid to ask him out but there are times when you are sure that he likes you. At other times, you're just not sure if he's interested in you. How can you know for sure if a man is attracted to you? What are some of the signs that the man you are dreaming about has romantic thoughts about you?

While many men can play their cards close to the vest, there are ways that you can tell if he likes you. You see, men are brought up to hide their emotions and it's often thought that men shouldn't show their feelings. Even if the man you're interested in isn't willing to speak his mind or tell you how he feels, his emotions will be apparent in his body language. No matter how much he might try to hide his true feelings, his body will tell the truth no matter how hard he might try to deny his feelings for you.

Has the guy you're interested in ever touched you? Have you noticed that sometimes when he's talking with you that he will gently touch your arm or even poke you, as if joking? Have you ever felt him touch your back when he holds a door open for you? Is it as if he has a need to touch you when you're near? All of these are a good sign that he is attracted to you. He feels a connection with you and although he might not be able to hug you or kiss you at this moment in time, touching you is a non-verbal show of affection that is safe for him to use to express his desire for you.

Even though there are people who tend to touch more when communicating with others, all of this is a good sign that he likes you. It could be that he comes from a culture that is known for being more physically affectionate or that his family brought him up to behave this way but, the fact that he feels comfortable enough with you to touch you is very good. To make sure, observe how he behaves with other women and see if you are unique in how he treats you. Does he touch other women. If not then you can be sure that he's attracted to you. Return the favor and help to build that non-verbal bond with him by touching him also.

Take notice of how he stands when he is talking to you. Is he facing you? Does his chest face towards you or do his feet point in your direction. A man's feet point toward what he wants so if his feet are pointing towards you then you are what he wants. If his chest is pointing towards you then he is open with you and he feels safe with you. He's not hiding anything and he is attracted to you.

Of course, there are guys that have been hurt in the past who might not abide by this rule. Shy guys will often avoid directly facing a woman that they are interested in. Also, if you're at a bar, it might be more difficult to face you directly than if you are sitting across from each other at a small table in a restaurant. Take notice the next time you are alone together. Notice if he faces you directly and what direction his feet are pointing.

The next time you meet the man of your dreams and you're alone, take a look at his eyes when he greets you. Do his eyes have a sparkle to them when he smiles at you? His body's reaction to seeing you will be unmistakable if he is falling in love with you. When a man begins to fall in love he will smile and his eyes will sparkle when he sees you. He will be unable to control this reaction so keep an eye out the next time you see him and you'll know for sure if he's attracted to you.

Be aware that if he looks away or looks down, this is not a sign that he isn't attracted to you. Again, shy men or men that are doubtful of lack some self-esteem will often avoid eye contact with a woman that they find particularly attractive. There may be a lot going through his mind so if he is nervous around you or if he avoids eye contact this might be nothing to worry about. Once he feels safe with you things will change. Let him become relaxed around you and you will see that sparkle in his eyes.

All of these are great signs that the man that you desire is attracted to you. While men might be emotionally repressed at times, these tell-tale signs should tell you everything that you need to know. Men, in general, are poor at expressing their emotions or even recognizing them sometimes. This is why their body does it for them without them even knowing. Let your relationship move forward without spoken words for the moment and be glad that you know that he is attracted to you. There will come a day when he will be able to tell you how awesome he thinks you are but until then read his body language and know that you're on the right path.
