14. Turning her body towards you

When we are interested in someone, we just don’t tell them to shut up and kiss us, but instead, we intend to turn our bodies towards them. If the mademoiselle’s shoulders are parallel with yours, it is a clear indication she is paying attention. An open body posture, such as uncrossed legs or arms, is inviting and very warm.

If any girl is into you, then she might give a hint by taking a small step towards you so that she is fully engaged with you. This shows that she is comfortable around you.

16. She consistently mirrors your gestures and language

Another sign that she is into you is tilting and dropping her head on one side while talking with you. This shows that she is receptive to whatever you are telling her. When accompanied by a slight drop of her chin towards the floor. This pose shows her vulnerability and appeals to a man’s protective nature.

18. Popping questions often

If she is into you, she will be more attentive to your talk. If, for instance, you mention the name of your first girlfriend or your sister’s birthday and she remembers, this serves as proof that she is not zoning you out. However, this might not be very effective as some shy girls have atrocious memories.

20. More intimate and personal things in her talk

As you get to know each other and feel more comfortable sharing ideas. She might start conversations that show a level of vulnerability and intimacy. This can be something from her dreams, beliefs, fears, preferences, trauma from past events, and so on. The fact that she has decided to open up means that she is taking your blossoming connection seriously.

A woman holding anything in her hands means different things. However, the key is to figure out how she is interacting with the object. Is she holding it tightly? Does she focus on it most of the time? Are her hands caressing it subconsciously? For instance, if she is holding a drink, she might stir it gently while gazing at you.

26. Standing taller and s*cking in her stomach

If she stands taller, pulls her shoulders back and her stomach in, then this is one of the most considerable signs she likes you. She subconsciously wants to make an impression. You can also check her while walking past you. If she sees you staring, she will change to the stated posture.

The reaction she gives you when you meet her talking to another guy says it all. If you say hello and she is shy, blushing and flustered, this is a sign that she might be worried that you might think she likes the guy they are together. If she ultimately doesn’t notice you or views your hello as a distraction, then she loves the boy she is walking with.

29. She dials you when drunk

A drunken person never lies and has sober thoughts. Alcohol makes people honest with everything, even emotions. So is she calls or messages you when drunk, just know that she wants to be with you. If this persists, take a step and organize a date with her. Things might work for you.

If she is doing so, just know it is a way of claiming her territory. She wants people to know that you two are very close, and this is a good sign.
