Speaker: How do you know if someone is attracted to you by their body language?

Toni Coleman: You can know because they really connect with you; they look at you, they smile at you, they have a certain positive presence when they're close to you. They perhaps lean in a little bit when you're talking to them; perhaps they put their arm around you or they touch your hand or they suddenly they're kind of right up against you if you're walking; perhaps they grab for your hand if you're walking or they grab for your arm. There's that connecting; there's that connecting in terms of the visuals, connecting in terms of touching each other with little gestures like that. Perhaps, even as you walk together, they walk in step with you, which is a non-conscious thing, but it happens. It shows a kind of real connecting together. They're right there with you, that sense that they're right there with you. Again, these are very subtle, but we often see them when two people are really kind of connecting on a very close level.
