How To Read Body Language
We need to gather as much information about him as possible. This can be done by reading his ‘baseline’. The baseline is the way he acts when you’re not around.
You will have to find a way of observing him when he is out socially or when he is with his family. You are looking at how he behaviors around them, is he the life and soul of the party or more revered? Is he animated/open with his body movements or more closed off?
Once you’ve observed him away from your influence, for example in a cafe or library, you can start to read his body language. Remember that context is paramount when it comes to reading people; we have to take into account the environment you’re in, which will reveal any potential lies he may be telling.
If you want to know if he likes you or loves you, there are plenty of good tell-tales. They might not always be easy to spot though. The guy may not even know what he’s going through himself and that is why it can be really difficult to gauge all of this before anything has happened.
I would recommend you at this point if you don’t know how to read body language to check out our guide How To Read Body Language & Nonverbal Cues (The Correct Way) before reading the below. This should give you a good grasp of how to read his body language. You’ve come this far, so why not delve deeper?
My Personal Experience With Secretly Falling In Love And Body Language
You ever like someone when you probably shouldn’t? Happened to me years ago. I was working in this small office, and there was this woman. We just…clicked, you know? We’d show up at work at the same time, take lunch breaks together – not planned or anything, it just happened.
And our body language? Totally in sync. If she reached for something, my hand would do the same, like we were tuned into each other’s frequency or something.
It was the little things that made me realize I was falling for her. The way her hair smelled, the smiles she’d shoot my way. Just couldn’t ignore it. I knew I was in deep.
You know that feeling when someone just gets under your skin, but you can’t do anything about it? That was us. Every look, every accidental touch – it was like fireworks. But office rules, right? We had to keep it professional.
We’d lock eyes, and it was like the world stopped. But then reality would kick in, and it was back to the grind. Those moments though, they were like little escapes from the mundane. Every “morning” and “see you later” was charged with this unspoken energy.
One night, we were both stuck late at the office, just us, the soft hum of computers, the quiet. We looked at each other and for a moment, just a moment, all those unspoken things hung in the air between us. Real, tangible. But then the moment passed.
Next day, it was like nothing happened. But everything was different, you know? Each hello and goodbye was heavy with a thousand unsaid words, a story we were writing together but never speaking out loud.
We were stuck in this dance, a mix of the everyday routine and something way deeper, an energy neither of us could ignore. But where could it go? We never said it out loud, but it was always there, this big, bold question mark hanging in the air every time she smiled my way or our hands brushed accidentally. A question as real as the spark between us, but just as silent.

He is always around you.
When we like someone, we naturally try to be around them as much as possible. When I first fell in love with a girl from school, I did all kinds of things to be near her: whether that meant being at the same classes or making sure I knew where she would be at lunchtime Id find a way to around her as much as possible.
He mirrors your body language.
When someone likes us and is in rapport with us, they will often do the same body language signs. For example, if we are sitting next to the guy that we think likes us and we lean back does he do the same thing? We are looking at nonverbal cues to see if our copy uses mirroring and matching.
He always has a big smile when he sees you.
There are two smiles a fake smile and a real smile. Knowing the difference will give you a big clue as to whether he really loves you or not.
A fake smile with just the mouth is different from a natural smile; the eyes are not involved. If you can’t see the lines in the eyes drawn upwards when the month moves this is a fake smile. It does not have any sincerity and other people will know you are lying about your happiness. The fake smile will just fall off the face instantly.
A real smile is called the Duchenne smile. They’re genuine, which indicates true happiness. The eyes and mouth match at the same time. You will see the eyes light up and lines form at the side of each eye. It looks warm and genuine.
If you see a lot of genuine smiles you know his into you a little more than you think.
His pupils are dilated when he talks to you.
When we really want something or desire someone we will start to see that item or thing everywhere its called the frequency illusion. This is also true for you if he truly loves you he will be one of the first people to notice you when you walk into a room. He will gravitate towards you at every opportunity. His pupils in his eyes will become bigger if you can see that his pupils are wider than normal he likes what he sees.
He finds any excuse to touch you.
Physical contact can be a very strong signal of romantic feelings. Physical contact can take many forms, such as a pat on the back, a high-five, or even a kiss. The most common form of physical contact is hand-holding, which often indicates your feelings.
When he speaks to you, he gets a little bit closer. You may have heard about the idea of personal space and experienced it. It’s the space around you, if someone comes too close, you’ll feel discomfort and become physically aware of their presence in your personal space.
He will naturally learn in your personal space because he wants to become physically close to you. You can take this as a really natural and good sign he likes you.
Ask yourself whether he touches you often during your time together. The closer he gets to fall in love with you, the closer he will get physically, wanting to touch you as much as possible.
He tries to make you laugh.
When a guy secretly cares about you, he knows that you want to be happy and that making you laugh can be a way to do it. He wants the person he likes to know he has good qualities too, whether it’s just as a friend or something more. Make sure not to forget these clues if they’re pointing towards something serious.
He loves listening to you talk.
When a man falls in love with you, he will spend as much time as possible trying to understand you and trying to solve your problems. He will listen to you for hours and hours and not say a word because he is in awe of you and just wants to be in your company.
He always wants to know how your day is going.
One of the first things he will ask you is how your day is going. This is because he will want to figure out if he needs to cheer you up or if you have time for a coffee. There can be many reasons why he will want to know how your day is going.
He remembers the little things about you.
A person in love will remember every little detail they can think of when it comes to their partner from the way they laugh to what types of food they love. This is because the feeling of being in love is so overwhelming and powerful. They will want to use the information to make any type of conversation.
He pays your a lot of compliments you.
He pays you a lot of compliments and always notices changes in you. Normal people won’t notice how you look, but if he notices every little change then maybe he’s secretly in love with you.
He turns up when you are least expecting him.
When he turns up when you least expect him to, it is a sign that he cares about you a lot. It can feel really overwhelming but if he loves you, then there is nothing he won’t do to be close to you
He makes an effort to get to know your close friends.
When a man likes you and wants to keep you close by, he will try hard to get close to your friends. He might want them to feel like they’re his best buddies or something so that they’ll assuredly be there for all the important moments in your life, & even help out when needed.
He always looks good and smells great.
If you notice a change in his appearance and he starts to take note of what he’s wearing and how he looks and asks for your opinion, this is a really good sign because it means that he wants to look good for YOU. Women are naturally drawn to someone who takes care of them. This is an evolutionary thing.
He is protective of you and will defend you at all costs.
Healthy relationships are all about mutual respect—they require that both parties be there for each other. If he’s always sticking up for you and defending you from criticism, then there’s a good chance he likes you.
He Can’t Seem To Stop Looking At You.
When a guy is secretly in love with you he won’t be able to stop looking at you. It’s impossible he will love every move you make, every smile, everything you do.
I knew I fell in love with my wife when I couldn’t stop looking at her. I couldn’t see past how beautiful she was. Every movement was like watching an angel; I was absolutely besotted with her and still am. Pay attention to see if he is looking at you a lot.
He’s Happy When You Are Around
When we experience something new or exciting, our bodies release dopamine – a.k.a., the happiness hormone. That explains why falling in love can feel so addictive, as it triggers this natural reward response in our brains.
Things to look out for:
- A sudden shift in his energy levels.
- Laughing and joking with his mates whilst looking or trying to get your attention.
- Showing off, doing anything to catch your eye.
- Becoming louder and more flamboyant.
- Open body language welcomes you and everyone into his space.
He Shows Affection Towards You In Front Of His Friends
This is a big one for any male, making his claim with you and letting the world know he likes you. You will start to notice others noticing this also and making comments about how he behaves around you or touches you.
If he is showing signs openly in front of people in public then you can take this as a reality.
