Male body language signals
In my experience it can be easier for us girls to understand guys
in some ways, as male body language signals are more obvious and less subtle than for females. Since the dawn of time itself, males have provided us with clues as to what they are thinking.
Here are some of the more obvious tell tale signals to show he is flirting.
The Glad Eye - Physiologically this is the best flirting sign we can think of. I challenge anyone to come up with something that will cut straight through to a girls attention.
Add on a nice or cheeky smile and bam! there's some serious flirting going on here.There is no better way to make a girl weak at the knees than with extended eye contact, in fact that goes for both sexes. And guys, don't worry if it feels difficult at first or makes you feel funny - run with it and enjoy feeling a bit uncomfortable. It can make your ego soar through the roof when she looks back.
Cowpoke stance - The classic male body language of the 'macho' male, he puts his thumbs in his pockets or behind his belt, pointing his fingers to his genitals.
Any body posture that makes him look masculine or tough is certainly a way of flirting.

NOW....while we're on the topic of "male body language signals", I have now completed a global study into the dating and mating patterns of over 1500 men and women, and how to know when we are attracted to one another. The study consisted of online surveys, focus groups, seminars, interviews and field research. simple & fun.
If you want to have a look, the real answers went into my new book How to get the man you want / How to get the woman you want

Hands on hips - Guys instinctively will try to make themselves look bigger. This masculine approach is supposed to be link to mans ancestry to ward off competition and impress the female.
Smooth or mess up hair - A part of preening can be to adjust the hair, without being perfect. A girl wants a well groomed male, but perhaps someone who doesn't outlast her in the bathroom.
Lend you his coat or jacket - Chivalry is still alive, just perhaps less noticeable nowadays. A great sign of flirting with a very personable touch. We know girls who would die for this to happn. A little favourite of girls in case you guys are interested.
Touch his face whilst looking at you - Think about it, while we are all trying to look perfect for one another, some subconscious signals tell her there is interest. A sign of being unsure or slightly insecure can be a dead giveaway he is interested. And don't worry guys - girls don't see it as a sign of weakness, in fact it's sometimes endearing.
Stroking his Tie - A classic form of male body language for guys in a suit or formal gear. Part of the preening process but can also show a strong ego as he re-affirms his masculinity.

Some girls out there will say their male friend does not flirt - rubbish! Look for the 'non-verbal leakage' or micro gestures that give away so much more. Look to see if he gets embarrassed around you and trust your gut instinct. |
Whisper and lean - A very good flirting technique to 'test' the waters as well. Girls love a secret and find the intimacy quite inviting with the right guy. Guys, if you are unsure, try moving say, your drink within her personal space just for a few seconds and gauge her reaction. If it's not positive then no harm done.
