How to Tell if a Guy is Interested

Don't Make the First Move Without Certainty

Guys can be hard to read emotionally, but there are some definite ways that a girl can tell if a guy's attracted to her.

Attraction is an interesting feeling, because it can make a person feel like she is happier than she have ever been. Yet, at the same time attraction can make a person feel worried and stressed out when she is unsure of the other person's feelings. When it comes to figuring out how guys feel, women can find clarity by observing a few subtle, yet unmistakable, signs.

Attraction as a Science

When in the midst of seeking out the guy that they're interested in, women usually don't think about the science behind attraction. However, that science is very important when trying to figure out if a guy is truly attractive. A man shows his attraction first and foremost through his eyes. If a man is attracted to a woman, he will look at the woman with lidded (the eyelids are lowered a bit more than usual when he looks at her) eyes, subconsciously conveying his sexual attraction to her. Women can read more about how biology affects attraction at the Biology of Attraction website.

A Subconscious Sign

The next sign is one that might seem obvious, but is actually often overlooked. For example, say that a man is in the same room as a woman, and is sitting near her. He will turn his body as well as his feet towards her as a sign of attraction. What is perhaps the most interesting about this sign of male attraction is that it subconsciously signals the attraction of even the most aloof man.

Friends, or Attraction?

Perhaps the most frustrating thing about trying to figure out male attraction is wondering if he is romantically interested, or just regards the woman as a good friend. Usually it is either one thing or the other, and a sure sign that the relationship is only platonic from his point of view is if he discusses his interest in specific other women. Some men might use this as a mind game tactic to test if the woman is really interested in him, and if this is the case, such a tactic does not make for a promising relationship. Websites like AskMen.com can provide women with a clearer idea of the male psyche.

Yet even the separation between friendship and attraction can be blurred, especially when the man is unsure of his feelings. Thus, the woman can either confront him and ask him where he sees this potential relationship going, or do nothing about the situation. Many women choose the latter option, which can only lead to more stress on their part. After all, the surest way to figure out how if a man is attracted is just to ask.
