30 body language signs that he's really into you (2023)

How many times has this happened to you? A nice guy strikes up a conversation with you and you nod until he leaves.

Later, your friend turns to you and says, "He's totally into you!"

What?

You had no idea!

It's more common than you might think: women often don't pick up on the signs that men are interested in them.

Here, we list 30body language signsthat a man is totally into you.

Read on to find out if he's totally into you.

signs he likes you

If you're looking for a new relationship, it's important to know the critical signs that a guy is interested in you.

Read our listing to make sure you don't miss a thing!

1) He stumbles over his words

Some guys are just natural stutterers. If you're normally the smoothest talker at the bar, but then turn into a jumble of words every time you speak, chances are you're nervous.

why are you nervous? Because he likes you and wants to impress you.

Take his stumble as an admission that he likes you!

2) Your posture is open

What is an open stance? Jaw relaxed, legs spread, arms uncrossed, feet shoulder-width apart.

It means relaxed body language. Yes, oneboy has an open posture around you, means your presence makes you comfortable. While it's not a clear sign that he likes you, it definitely means he's not uninterested!

3) Slow down breathing

Whenever you're around, his breathing slows down pleasantly. More importantly, it's not heavy. He doesn't snort like he just walked out of the gym. Instead, his breathing seems to simply slow down and lighten.

Again, this is because his body relaxes in your presence.

4) He raises his eyebrows when he sees you

Humans raise their eyebrows when they see someone as a universal way to communicate a welcoming, non-threatening greeting. If he raises his eyebrows quickly when he sees you enter the room, he's subconsciously saying he's really happy to see you.

5) Tilt your head.

You know how puppies tilt their heads toward a sound they've just heard. Humans do it too! It's a way to show a visual interest in what they're listening to or watching. If you start talking to him and he nods his head in response, he's "leaning" into what you're saying, showing that he's interested!

6) You can see your hands

When your hands are extended, it means you are relaxed. If you have your hands in your pockets or crossed under your arms, you are likely to feel uncomfortable.

On the other hand (ha), if he's nodding and gesturing (talking while gesturing) when he's around you, he feels relaxed and happy to be around you. Take this as a good sign that he likes you!

7) It is played with the neck and throat

Maybe he loosens his tie when the two of you talk. Or, if he's not dressed for work, you find that he casually touches his throat as he talks.

The throat traditionally represents vulnerability. If a guy touches your throat while talking to you, he's secretly letting you know he's letting his guard down.

8) His face turns red when you're around

Sometimes when a guy really likes a girl it really causes his body to react to the stress it has built up. This reaction takes the form of flushing in the face, where blood rushes to the face, giving it a reddish hue.

It is likea blush, except that nothing embarrassing precipitated it.

Rather, it's his attraction to you that has caused him to turn a deeper shade of red.

9) Your pupils dilate

He's not in shock, so why are his pupils dilated?

Answer: He is attracted to you.

If his pupils get wide as he talks to you, it could be a subtle indication that he is very interested in you.

10) Smile with your mouth open

Smiling with your mouth closed is a form of closed body language. He is distant, not attractive.

However, if he smiles with his mouth open, he is subconsciously showing you that he is opening up to you. He is happy to see you and you relax him.

11) Walk by your side

If a man takes the time to keep pace with you and walk beside you instead of in front of you or behind you, he's doing it to spend more time with you.

He's doing this to be considerate, to increase the amount of time everyone has to talk, and so he can watch them as they talk.

Also, this allows him to get a little closer to you, physically. Physical proximity is a key indicator of attraction.

12) He is close to you.

Taking advantage of the last sign, a man standing next to you means that he has a crush on you.

What does close mean?

It means being a little inside your personal bubble.

We're not talking two inches from your nose (creepy), but we mean an arm's length away. If you notice that the guy you're talking to is leaning closer to you, it's probably a clear sign that he really likes you. Take that information and run with it!

13) Leans forward when you speak

Again, it's about men bowing down. If a man intrudes (literally) into your conversation, that's a visual indication that he's actively interested in what you have to say.

While what you have to say is seriously compelling, no doubt he's also interested in what you have to say because he's interested in you. Just as women tend to laugh at the jokes of the men they're attracted to, men tend to pay close attention to what their crushes are saying.

14) He bridges the gap when you're talking

If the two of you strike up a conversation, don't be surprised if he ends up a lot closer to you in the middle. Does he approach you while you are talking? Are you taking steps to make every word more intimate and connected than ever before? Definitely a sign that he likes you.

15) Put your hands on your hips

Place your hands on your hips and bend your elbows outward. It may not be the most elegant pose, but it is a male power pose. He intends to project confidence and superiority to other MEN in the room, which means he wants to discourage other men from flirting with you while he uses his charm.

16) He has sweaty palms

Sweaty palm is an indication that you are nervous. Not all men are very confident when it comes to dating. Instead, the thought of impressing you might make him a little anxious. As a result, your hands might get a little sweaty.

17) He touches you without realizing it

It seems like he always gives you a gentle, innocent nudge. Maybe it's a light kick with your foot or an accidental touch with your fingertips. Whatever it is, it always seems to be accidentally making body contact.

18) He is mesmerized by your face.

His eyes are never far from your face. But instead of making eye contact with you, he always seems to be looking at your lips. This is a subtle sign that he's paying close attention to what you're saying, and that he's very much in love with you in the process.

19) Touches your knee

When the two of you are sitting next to each other, he might very casually place his hand on your leg (probably around the kneecap). This is a test to see how you feel about him initiating physical contact in a non-threatening way.

Are you receptive? Or do you cross your legs quickly? He's trying to gauge your response to his first move. Make sure you respond appropriately so he knows your feelings!

20) Tuck your hair behind your ear

This is exactly like the sign above. He's testing to see how intimate physical contact feels to you. What are your thoughts? You have subtle body language that also communicates your desires to him. Are you blushing? Or are you a little scared?

21) Point your toes at yourself

When you are standing (or even sitting), you will notice that both of your toes are pointing towards you. If you move a little to the left, his toes will come back towards you. Move right, move back. Chances are, you won't even realize you're doing it!

22) Tilt your pelvis towards you

If he really likes you, he won't stop pointing his toes. Their entire pelvis will be tilted towards you when you are talking, standing or sitting. It's a very expressive sexual sign that he is physically attracted to you.

23) Open your legs when sitting down

We're not talking about the man opening up on the subway, we're talking about him having an open body posture when the two of them are sitting down. If he uncrosses or spreads his legs when the two of you are sitting down, he's showing that he's relaxed and attracted to you.

You are subconsciously implying that you are open for business.

24) He rubs against your arm

It's all about that physical contact. It could be a light brush of fingertips on the forearm, or perhaps a gentle hand on the shoulder. Again, you're looking for openings to create moments of physical intimacy to build attraction. Pay attention!

25) Plays with his cup when you talk

This could be a sign that a guy is a little nervous and doesn't know what to say. If she's playing with her glass while the two of you are getting along, she's probably trying to think of what to say to impress you!

26) Change the pitch of your voice

Every time the two start talking, their pitch seems to drop an octave. It's a softer, calmer, deeper voice.

To top it off, it's also a slower speech.

When a man slows down and slows down around you, he's interested!

27) Minimize interruptions and distractions

Does your cell phone ring while you're talking? Sends directly to voicemail. Better yet, put it on silent.

When a man is interested in you, he eliminates any potential interruptions or distractions. He will keep conversations with others to a courtesy minimum to focus attention on you.

28) Make time for yourself

This is a big one. If a guy is interested in you, he'll make time. He will respond to your messages. Indeed,he will approach first.

Your calendar will somehow magically become free for any potential dates.

If he's not interested, expect him to be slow to respond to text messages. You're probably always "too busy" to find yourself too.

29) Act like a gentleman

Every time you enter the room he always gets up from his chair. He will be happy to take your coat when you come in. If you feel the slightest chill, he will offer you his jacket almost immediately.

Consideration of your feelings means he cares about you.

30) Treats you with respect.

He never interrupts you when you speak. He always respects your boundaries. Find interest in whatever you have to say. Have her friends stop the rude talk when you're around.

If he's working overtime to show you how important you are, take that as a major sign that he definitely likes you.

Ending

Men have a ton of subconscious and conscious cues and cues that they use to show that they are interested in a woman.

When a man initiates gentle physical contact, he seems to match your body language and tries to create intimacy through a soft voice and open body postures; you can be sure he's into you.

If he's serious about taking things to the next level, you'll find he starts to make time for you. Interested men will make an effort to make a space for you in their lives.
