Reading body language - does he like me? I already told him I like him more than a friend!

Question - (1 November 2007) 6 Answers - (Newest, 11 November 2007)
A female United Kingdom age 30-35, anonymous writes:

If a guy does these things:

- folds his arms, often/contantly

- is very quiet/shy suddenly when around you

- laughs nervously

- won't look me in the eye/avoids eye contact

- looks uncomfortable

- smiles slightly to himself, and looks downwards

- gets embarrassed when his mates joke about him fancing you, or simular intentions-

Does this mean he fancies me!? Or is just scared of me and some of his friend's rumours?

Please write back, very confused... and worried!

Ps.

I've already told him how I feel, meaning, that I like him more than a friend.

Thanks for reading!

kenny agony auntHe could be just shy, im not saying he does not like you, because he probably does, its just when you described his body language you described someone with a very closed posture. when you fold your arms that is normally a defence that says stay away, as is crossing your legs. And when someone likes you they normaly want to get your eye contact and hold it for as long as possible, not avoid eye contact. As i said he could be just shy, What was his reaction like when you expressed your feelings for him then?. Why don't you try again, but this time ask him if he fancies doing something at the weekend, maybe go the the cimema or something.

Goodluck x

calamitysil agony auntHmmm

I'm not convinced! A guy who folds his arms often creates a barrier instinctively between himself and the person who feels uncomfortable with, add to that the fact he avoids eye contact would indicate he feels uncomfortable with you. Now this could be because he knows how you feel about him, and this may bother him if he doesn't feel the same way! The fact he smiles however, shows he's flattered, so going by his age and inexperience, he may well be very shy. I'd tread slowly and try not to overwhelm him with your feelings-you might frighten him off! Try and get him on his own. If he's interested, he'll start letting his barriers down. Good luck :-)

Yes i reckon he likes you :)

he just seems a bit shy, and scared to make a move incase of what our reactions are.

I think you should talk to him, incourage him to open up to you and make him feel more comfortable around you.

If yu build a good friendship with him and see where it goes from there.

remember friendship is the key to the best relationships.

hope that helped.

message me if you want to talk xx

Asexy agony auntIt could mean either of those things. If you want him to get that you're interested, make it very easy for him to be with you. Smile at him a lot. Listen when he talks. Laugh at his jokes. Look him in the eyes. Stand in his personal space.

All of these things let a guy know that he won't be rebuffed when he gets the courage to make a move.

Or, you could ask him to lunch sometime...
