Learning to interpret a male’s subconscious body gestures can help you determine whether you’ll be getting a second date.
Male body language will also let you know when he’s not the one. If a man doesn’t display any of the following signs, you're better off moving on to the next eligible bachelor.
| He’ll attempt to improve his appearance when he’s attracted. |
Just like in the animal kingdom, males tend to “preen” when they’re interested in a female. They pay extra attention to their grooming and personal appearance.
When a man spots an interesting female, he may automatically adjust his tie, smooth his collar or brush his shoulder.
Other common signs of preening involve fixing his hair or rearranging his shirt, cuff links, and clothing. He may check his teeth or automatically touch his throat.
He wants to look as good as he can before he approaches you. Therefore ladies, you should take any of the above as a very positive sign!
| Signs of dominance. When he starts to act like an alpha male. |
You may have heard the term “alpha male”. This refers to a man who is a strong, smart leader.
The term comes from the highest ranked or most dominant individual among social animals such as dogs or wolves. The alpha leader always dominates the rest of the pack and gains priority in mating with females. Men do the very same thing!
A flirting male may place his hands on his hips to subconsciously make himself appear bigger. This gesture says “Notice me. I’m the leader and I’m ready to get involved!”
A man may also pull in his stomach, puff up his chest or stand a little taller.
| Eye contact. His eye movements will tell you all you need to know. |
Eye contact is very important when you are studying how men flirt. Men who are interested will usually hold their gaze for a little longer than usual.
Their pupils may also dilate when they’re attracted to a woman. In fact, a man’s pupils can become 4 times bigger when he is interested!
Men may also perform what is called the “triangular formulation” with their eyes. This involves looking eye to eye, then down to a woman’s mouth and chin, down to the rest of her body and back up to her eyes again.
And you thought geometry was boring!
If a man throws you a few lingering glances, followed with a flirtatious grin, you definitely know he’s interested.
| Touching. What does it mean if he touches your clothing or your shoulder? |
There is important point to notice when you watch how men flirt. When a man is interested in a woman, he will often find an excuse to touch her. He may put a hand on her shoulder or knee, tickle her playfully or pat her on the back. Some men may even feel a woman’s blouse, jacket or shoulder.
He may come up with a quick excuse such as “your blouse looked so soft I just had to feel it” or “I was just removing a piece of lint from your dress”.
He may even “accidentally” bump into you while casually passing by.
Ladies, you know better! Take this as a very positive sign that things are going well.
This is his way of showing you he is attracted to you.
Men, just make sure not to grope her or get too “touchy” in the early stages. This may lead to a drink poured over your head, rather than a date!
| Subconsious male body gestures. What his hands and feet will tell you. |
The next time you’re watching a man and a woman interacting, take note whether the man hooks his thumbs in his belt.
If he does, what do you think it means?
That’s him trying to keep his pants from falling down? Hopefully not!
This gesture is a very important sign that he’s interested in you!
This is a subconscious way for a man to attract members of the opposite sex by framing that particular part of his body. No ladies, we are not referring to his wallet!
When a man flirts, he will also turn his entire body towards the woman. If his legs and feet remain pointed toward you, take this as a sign he is interested.
Ladies, if you are wondering whether the cute guy you are talking with is actually interested, take another look at how he is sitting. If his body or feet are turned away from you, you might want to look elsewhere for Mr. Right!
Men will tell you all you need to know with their body language and non-verbal gestures.

- He practices signs of dominance and acts like an “alpha male”

After this, will come the moment of truth – when he opens his mouth and starts talking. If your conversation goes as well as his flirting, you are off to a great romantic start!
