10 Strange Ways Guys Show Attraction

10 Strange Ways Guys Show Attraction : There is a reason why they say, “Men are from Mars, and women are from Venus.” Men can be as confusing as women in their manner of showing interest and affection.

Here are 10 signs that he is interested in you that you often miss or misjudge.

He seems awkward

You’re waiting for him to make a move, but he seems oblivious to all of your signals. You might think he is confused or completely uninterested, but he might be scared of initiating things.

He might be overthinking in an attempt to make the right move. If he likes you and is concerned about making a mistake, he will seem awkward at first. He won’t simply jump on you just because he likes you.
He acts cocky

Remember the type of guy who would act cocky whenever he met with you? Your friends would not see it, while you could swear there was something wrong with his personality. Or that he has something against you.

It might surprise you to know that acting all cocky can actually be a sign that he likes you. He might automatically go into macho mode to impress you, without thinking it can seem weird to you.
He stops using his phone

If you’re around or chatting up a guy who secretly likes you, he will leave his phone aside and pay attention to what you have to say. It’s not that he is avoiding uncomfortable calls from others. He is focusing his full attention on you.

This is an instinctual behavior that shows attraction on his part. By not concentrating on other distractions and paying full attention to you, he is indirectly displaying his interest in your person.
He looks away

Have you ever met up with a guy only to have him look away after making eye contact? You might think that’s a normal reaction from a man who has no interest in what he has seen. In truth, it is often the complete opposite.

If he is shy or fighting his feelings, he will involuntarily look in a different direction after seeing the person he likes. He might even be worried about involuntarily revealing his feelings, so he will naturally redirect his gaze.
He teases you a lot

Remember the boy in your class who always teased you and made you cry? And how it turned out that he had a crush on you?

The guy you like might be older, but that doesn’t mean he is above using the same technique. If he teases you often, it’s his childish side coming to the forefront. It’s not that he is making fun of you in a negative manner. This is his strange, covert way of saying I like you.
He makes jokes often

Many friends have asked me why men like to play jokesters and why the sudden behavior changes. They’ve noticed serious guys making jokes when they are around, sometimes to an excessive point.

You might also find this strange, but it is not that weird for a guy to want to make the girl that he likes laugh. He might want to make a good impression, and he finds that humor is the way to impress you.
He wants to see you during the day

If you’re expecting the guy you like to ask you for a night out to have dinner, but instead, you always meet up during the day, it’s not that he only wants to be friends.

When a man is really interested in you, he will want to see you anytime. He won’t just go for evening dates that end up at your or his place. He is trying to show you that it’s not all about sex for him when he spends time with you during the day as well.
He doesn’t face you while talking

You might think that a guy talking to you while gazing in other directions is not interested in you. You shouldn’t rush to judge a book by its cover.

If he asks you questions and not just making minimal chit-chat, it might only reflect his shy nature. Chances are he is having difficulty making eye contact while racking his brain for meaningful subjects to converse about, so he can impress you.
His hands are clammy

You’ve probably had this happen to you before, and you haven’t even given it a second thought. However, when you’re with a guy who often brushes his palms on his pants to wipe off the sweat from them, it’s not due to the heat outside.

His palms are getting clammy because he is nervous. He is probably trying hard not to show how excited he is to be around you.
He raises his eyebrow

You’ve probably seen this happen before yet had no idea what it truly meant. If you notice a guy raise his eyebrow when he sees you, it’s not because there is anything critical in his attitude.

On the contrary, he is trying to show his interest in you. It is often an involuntary reaction on his part, showing that his attraction rather than disapproval.

It’s easy for your first impression of a guy to be a mistaken one. He might be sending mixed signals or weird ones at times. Before jumping to conclusions, pay attention to these signals next time you want to judge whether a guy likes you or not.
