Body language is something that we all do unintentionally. We often don’t stop to think about the way we’re standing, or how we’re holding our hands. This makes it easy to tell what a man is thinking and whether he’s attracted to you.
Men show specific signs of attraction depending on the type of attraction. For example, the body language of sexual attraction will look different than being interested in getting to know someone.
This makes it important to understand what body language to look for, and to be able to interpret it properly. These 37 signs show that he’s into you, and I’ll help you determine what he’s interested in.

If a man is giving you the eye and then uncrosses his legs, those open legs are a sign that he is sexually attracted to you. He’s showing off the goods, so to speak. This is also an invitation to determine if you’re thinking the same thing. If you are, let your eyes wander a bit.
If a man is staring at you, you can trust that he’s interested. Men look at women that they like. However, you’ll need to pay attention to determine what he’s interested in. If you notice him staring at your lips or other areas that are sexual, like your butt, he’s sexually attracted to you. When a man makes eye contact and stares into your eyes, it means that he’s interested in you, not just your body.
When a man is interested in being intimate with you, he takes a more dominant stance than one that is interested in dating you.

When men are interested, they accidentally raise their eyebrows. Most people do this when they find something interesting. This doesn’t necessarily say that he’s sexually attracted, though.

Men, especially shy men, get nervous around girls that they like. You’ll know that he likes you if he starts to squirm as soon as you walk into the room.

When you make eye contact with him, keep an eye on his lips. If they part while your eyes are locked, it means that he is attracted to you.
