Guys, what are some hints that lead you to think that a girl likes you? O_O....
Might wanna get answers from multiple people for this, not everyone catches the same things and everything interprets it different. I study kinesics (study of body language/facial expressions) as a hobby and so I can give a slightly more technical answer.
The most important thing to understand is that it is not a "single" thing that proves you are interested in a guy. It is a multiple of things. It also doesn't apply to every girl, and every girl expresses each on a very very different level. Some are from studies others are from personal experience
More Noticeable things
- Girl touches/brushes/twirls (with finger) their hair
- Girl becomes very very self-aware (does things to look prettier)
- Rubs something; glass cup, arm, thigh, etc.
- Stutters
- catch her making frequent glances (either she is interested or guy has something on his face)
- quickly turns away when eye contact is made, usually turns face 180 degrees away (looks completely the other way)
- holds her eyes on you for longer than what a normal person would care to
- very frequently "looks around" with you within that range of view
- abnormally a lot of attention given to that particular guy (if the girl is outgoing or not shy)
- abnormally quiet towards only that guy (if the girl is towards the shy type)
- flirty (if the person isn't normally flirty. If she is always flirty, doesn't apply)
- avoids eye contact a lot or makes none at all (either she hates the guy or she likes the guy)
- skin contact by the girl (usually intentional on the girl's part)
- a surprise reflex when guy makes physical contact with the girl (any type of physical contact that hasn't happened between the two will usually work)
Less Noticeable things
- Lips pucker (gets big)
- Eyes dilate (this is actually 100% accurate, except how often do you get close enough to see a person's eyes?)
- Face blushes slightly
- Palm showing(?)... This apparently is also a 100% accurate thing, but I heard it is so difficult to actually catch that it is almost impossible to use as a tell
- Girl usually sits more upright... supposedly very frequently girls try to accentuate their chest; I could never tell though to be honest -.-;
- Crosses their legs... especially while wearing skirts or something that has thighs revealing (not a very accurate tell)
those are all that I can think of right now, i'll add more if i can remember some.
Edit note:
Most people are naturally intelligent enough to pick up on these cues at least on a subconscious level; most don't process or piece them together. Also the way girls (or guys) react like this is a very natural and spur-of-the-moment reaction which can be masked but really can't be eliminated. I know some girls are gonna read this and go "oh crap, I do this... I won't do it next time." That doesn't work at all! The guy will also pick up from the fact that you're not acting like a normal person should, and can also just as easily interpret that as a cue. (For example... being too stiff so that you don't do things written there)
