Attraction is a complex phenomena that people always seek to understand. When you understand the signs behind attraction it becomes clear how to tell whether someone is attracted to you. A person´s body language can play a huge role in determining whether they are attracted to you. Body language makes up 50-70% of communication,http://changingminds.org/techniques/body/body_language.htmhttp://www.bbwmagazine.com/love_3_0016.htm so understanding all the non-verbal cues and signals people display can provide you with a wealth of information about how they may feel about you. This page in particular focuses on the insights you can gain by observing their breathing, nose and eyes.
How to Tell if Someone is Attracted to You: Breathing, Nose, Eyes
In this short video Dr. Lillian Glass explains the signs of attraction that can be detected in a person´s breathing, nose, and eyes. She describes how people´s breathing patterns may change when speaking with someone they are attracted to, and how the pupils may widen if they are attracted.
Breathing and Nose
Dr. Lillian Glass explains that when a person is attracted to you, their breathing pattern will change.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BEzHBMpynWc This may have to do with bodily changes associated with arousal, since pulse rate and breathing are known to quicken when an individual becomes aroused.http://www.nhs.uk/Livewell/Goodsex/Pages/Sexualarousalinwomen.aspx Dr. Glass also recommends observing the nose to see if the nostrils widen. This can also indicate a change in breathing, and flared nostrils have been noted as a potential sign of attraction.http://www.life123.com/relationships/communication/body-language/body-language-signs-of-attraction.shtml
Eyes
The eyes contain a wealth of information when looking for clues about whether or not someone is attracted to you. First, the gazing pattern of someone who is attracted to you will be much different that someone with merely platonic feelings. When someone feels nothing more than friendship, their gaze will be fixed on your eyes, scanning back and forth from one eye to the other. This indicates no romantic feelings. However, if someone scans from one eye to the other, then to the mouth and back to the eyes, or the hair then back to the eyes, this is a sign of attraction. They are curious about you and so they cannot help but explore other parts of your face. This gazing pattern is very easy to observe and is often totally unconscious so it is a handy tool in determining whether someone is attracted to you.http://www.bbwmagazine.com/love_3_0016.htm
Two other totally unconscious and involuntary signs of attraction are dilated pupils and watery eyes. Pupils will naturally change size based on lighting, but also when a person is looking at someone they are attracted to. If someone looks at you and their pupils widen, or their pupils seem more dilated than others in the room, they may be attracted to you. Another noticeable and involuntary sign of interpersonal attraction is watery eyes.http://www.bbwmagazine.com/love_3_0016.htm
