Ever wonder if a guy is giving you a signal? It’s not easy to decipher the mind of the modern male, but learning to decode what his nonverbal communication truly means is an invaluable asset in the game of love. So to be sure you’re reading him right, look out for the following 10 signs.

1. Leaning into Love: 

If a guy is interested in you, you’ll find that his body will lean forward toward yours. This move can be either very subtle or extremely “in your face” (literally!). It’s his way of letting you know he’d like to get even closer. Once his interest is piqued, you’ll both find it hard to pull away!

2. Keeping It Even Closer: 

A vital aspect of the physical nature of romance is reciprocity. Translation: meeting his advances with your own. This not only signals your interest but also serves to keep his.

3. Look into his eyes

If he’s interested in you, he’ll focus on you with those piercing glances and hold it. Return his romantic gaze with a quiet smile and let him know that you are interested. He’ll be at your side in no time.

 4. Touching Is a Good Thing 

If a guy is interested in you, then he’ll want to be near you. He’ll also want to take every opportunity to touch you. Maybe it’s your arm, your leg, your knee — it doesn’t matter, as long as his presence is physical and affectionate. It’s his way of letting you know he likes you.

5. Funny Meeting You Here 

He shows up at all your favorite hangout places. This may not be accidental after all. He may be signaling that he’s trying to connect with you in the most casual of ways. Take this as a positive sign and make the most of your next encounter.

6. Listen Closely

 For a man to shut up and listen to someone other than himself, you know it must be love (or at least a strong attraction).

7. Funny Lady

Told a very bad joke but he laughs at it, anyway? Men are very in touch with their sense of humor, so if he’s sending some hearty laughter your way, it’s probably because he’s interested.

8. Nervousness 

Look for signs like unexplained laughter, sweaty palms, and fidgeting. Guys always want to be in control of their emotions, but if he has trouble doing that around you, it’s most likely because you make him nervous and excited. Don’t take it for granted; help him to relax, and he’ll thank you for being a great guy you can depend on.
