Reading Body Language – Love at First Sign
Non-Verbal Communication Involved in Flirting and Sexual Signals
Sep 8, 2009
The number one reason why people are interested in the notion of body language and non-verbal communication is, much like their reasons for anything else, to try and achieve greater and more bountiful success with the opposite sex.
There are several different body language guides and lesson in non-verbal communication. This article aims to bring together some of the most consistent and useful of findings about love body language.
Revealing Eye Movement in Love Body Language
Eye movements can be very revealing about hidden emotions. This is especially true during conversations. Eye movements dance and jolt around the face of the person with which they are holding a conversation. Where these quick and subconscious "saccade" movements land can hold some very interesting revelations.
When someone is talking to a college or an associate who is held in higher regard and esteem than them, they will often show respect by only looking at the peers eyes, simply shifting between the two and perhaps across the top of the nose, but never stray any lower.
When someone is talking to a friend or a close acquaintance this map of gaze will often fall slightly. Instead of simply switching between the eyes, the gaze will drop into a triangle around the mouth and nose and them return to the eyes.
When someone is falling into the flairs of flirting, the gaze may begin to fall further than the mouth, to the regions where perhaps their intermittent attentions are truly settling.
This moving ‘triangle’ of attention can reveal the inner thoughts and perhaps the coy and bashful silent urges that may wish to be suppressed. With careful attention and close watch, these can indicate perhaps what words cannot.
Eyebrow Body Language
Whenever a person encounters another that they may be attracted to or may see as a prospective partner they will unconscious flutter their eyebrows very quickly. This may only last a split second, however it is always present, in virtually every culture on earth.
Therefore, in order to appear more suggestive or perhaps more accessible it is a good plan to be rid of those over hanging long flapping fringes, let those eyebrows flurry in free view of all.
Although this eyebrow movement is very hard to detect, as it is so very fast, it is a good consideration to watch for it when first introduced to someone, try to drag those eyes from the wide low loving gaze triangle for the first half a second to watch how the eyebrows shift.
Mirroring in Body Language
Specifically, in the attentions of potential partners and lovers, mirroring will occur to display an inner desire to follow and share the same body-shape as the desirable peer.
If someone is seen to follow expressions of the body and copy the movements of another it reveals a wish to appear similar and therefore more desirable to the person to whom they are speaking.
Pointing in Body Language
People do seemingly baffling things without realising. A person perhaps trying to hide their lust and love with not speak their emotions but may clearly show it through their body and non-verbal messaging. This is a key example.
People will often let their body "point" towards a love interest. For example, someone may sit with crossed arms and eyes to the floor, but their feet may unconscious be pointing a clear path to the person they are desiring to be with.
Hands may settle on the table, relaxed and easy, but the fingers may point out or stretch into the direction of the person on the mind. This a perfect example of how people are oblivious to the clear image and portrait they are framing for everyone around.
The study of body language, although obviously not 100% reliable, can help read and distinguish these signals and offer slight revelations about the unlearned peers who give clear suggestions.
