Is She Interested or Not: 5 Signs to Look for

You are on a date with a gorgeous girl. She seems friendly and excited, and it feels like she is attracted to you. But you can’t really tell for sure. You can’t read her mind, you figure. Or can you?

Of course you can if you try a little bit. You just have to look for the following signs:

Strong eye contact

Does she look right into your eyes unapologetically? If yes, that is a good sign. Unless we are consciously forcing eye contact for some reason, we only make strong eye contact with people we like; especially so when the person is of the opposite sex. However, sometimes, she may not really look into your eyes even if she is interested. Instead, she may throw shy glances your way once in a while and avert her eyes shyly when you initiate eye contact. That is mostly the case when she is too nervous, or is generally a shy girl.

Dilated pupils

Maybe you have heard that our pupils dilate when we enter a dark room. But that is not the only time our pupils dilate. The same thing happens when we look at something we like. So if her pupils seem dilated, it is almost a surefire sign that she likes you.

Mirroring gestures

Our body works in strange ways. One of the most potent signs of interest the body can exhibit is mirroring. That is when the girl unconsciously makes gestures that are similar to your gestures. For example, she may touch her chin right after you put your hand on your chin. If you are standing, she may shift weight from one of her legs to the other leg when you do the same. There are many other examples of mirroring.

Hair flickering

Girls cannot help it. If they like someone, they naturally play with their hair. They may simply touch their hair occasionally, or may touch near ear. So if she seems to be touching her hair a lot, that is a strong positive sign. Continue reading

Forming a Deep Connection with Your Date: 4 Topics to Get You Started

If you want to form a deep connection with your date, asking him or her “What did you have for breakfast?” will get you nowhere. When your goal is to truly connect with another human being on a human level, superficial questions are rarely going to help you.

In order to effectively form a deep connection with your date, instead of focusing all your energy on coming up with clever questions and responses, you should keep your focus on meaningful topics like the following:

Childhood memories

Memories associated with childhood tend to be very personal for most people. If you can successfully get your date talking about his or her childhood days, you will be years ahead of those who attempt to impress him or her by trying to be witty, funny or clever. Note that if your date opens up to you about this topic, you too should share some of your own childhood memories, in order to avoid leaving your date feeling left out. That way, both of you will feel like you are opening up to each other, and that the conversation is making progress.

Goals and ambitions

For many people, especially the high achievers, their goals in life hold special meaning. You may find it tough to get a category of people talking about their goals and aspirations openly, but you will also find many people who will gladly share their grandest desires with you. Sometimes, you will even find that you and your date have some common goals in life.

Favorite things

Finding out what things your date likes is not just limited to asking “Which is your favorite movie?” or “What band do you listen to?” You can go much deeper than that if you just try. For example, if your date mentions the name of a movie he or she likes a lot, you can always ask questions like “Why do you like it so much?”, “Which part of the movie is your favorite” etc. Very few people show interest so intensely. So, doing something like this will help you build an even stronger connection with your date. Continue reading
