Teen Angst: Body Language 101

There's only one sure shot...body language... It speaks louder than words.

First,the scoop on body language apparent on guys and girls who like like you.

Like Like means they want to hang with you:

1) You will see them looking at you from the corner of your eye... but when you turn to look, they turn away.

2) They will blush if you look directly at them. Of course, they will turn around immediately so you can't see the redness in their face.

3) They play with their hair. Girls do this more often, but boys do shake the hair out of their eyes even if they barely have any. Ruffling fur is an animal instinct to attract a mate.

4) They grab their friends and shove them between you...to avoid the deadly eye contact.

5) They laugh a lot, and smile and roll their eyes. This says..."I like you, but I'm not sure you like me...but if I look directly at you when I'm talking, you'll see it in my eyes, and I'll blush."

Next, the body language of someone not interested.

Someone not interested might think your tolerable, but wants nothing to do with you:

1) They look you directly in the eye with annoyance.

2) They fold their arms across their chest as a blocking signal to keep you at bay.

3) They roll their eyes without smiling or laughing, because they want you to let them get back to what they were doing.

4) Guys really try to be polite to girls because they would feel bad making a girl cry so... at their subtlest they will give short answers to your questions and hellos, then walk away.

5) However, a person not interested in any way, shape, or form will say it outright because they don't care about your feelings.

You know what!

Let them go about their business because you probably know someone right now who is giving off the good signals. Go for them instead.

Finally, if you want to know if someone likes you as a friend, you won't need any signals because you'll both want to spend time together.

Friendships just grow without games.
