20 poderosas señales de atracción masculina (¿Le interesa o no?)

I bet it’s happened to you before. You liked someone, but you didn’t want to make the first move and you could swear that he was interesado en ti también, pero nunca pasó nada.

Después de todo, deberías ser capaz de darte cuenta de si le gustas a un chico, ¿verdad?

You were just too scared to do something about it because you didn’t know how to spot those obvious signs of attraction.

Bueno, aunque hay muchas formas de determinar la potencia signos de atracción masculina they’re not always that easy to interpret.

La mayoría de la gente saca conclusiones sólo por la forma de actuar de esa persona especial y su señales del lenguaje corporal.

Sin embargo, también hay signos clásicos you can positively interpret that don’t have to do anything with their body language but with their attitude and the things they say and do.

Estamos aquí para explicarte ambas cosas y discernir todas esas señales fáciles de pasar por alto que indican que le gustas a ese chico.

10 Body Language Signs That Say He’s Interested

Here we’re going to discuss powerful signos de atracción masculina que pueden exhibirse de forma física.

Since there are more ways to show you how he feels (we’ll get to that in the second part) right now, we’ll focus our attention on the signs that you can see and possibly feel.

It’s all about his body language, eye contact, and all those obvious signs that if you pay close attention, you’ll easily notice.

It’s in the way he acts around you (fidgeting, leaning in, being a flirt, and barely catching his breath).

Down below, you’ll be able to read more about each one and see what might’ve been right in front of your eyes the entire time.

Éstos son algunos ejemplos físicos signos de atracción that will give you the reassurance you’ve been dying to get (roughly translated: Here’s how you know that he’s got a crush on you!)

1. Sus pupilas se dilatan

It’s scientifically proven that dilated pupils are the reaction of our brain when we see something we like.

Nos emocionamos y esa emoción se nota físicamente.

Así que la próxima vez que hables con la persona que te gusta, fíjate bien en sus ojos, pero intenta que sea sutil.

You don’t want him to think you are a freaky psycho waiting to attack.

This could be a good sign of his interest toward you. He can’t control it.

He can’t stop it. It’s a natural reaction that will either take place or not. Either way, you’ll get the message loud and clear.

Hopefully, it’s the one you’ve been secretly hoping for.

2. Contacto visual prolongado

Así que no sólo contacto visual, sino uno que dure un poco más que cuando miras accidentalmente a alguien y tus ojos se encuentran con los suyos.

There is nothing accidental about this eye encounter. It’s planned and it lasts longer, maybe even long enough to make you feel awkward, so you look away from him.

Also, studies have shown that when a guy is interested in a girl, he will try to glance at her when he thinks she’s not looking.

Pero cuando ella le sorprenda mirándole fijamente, debe prolongar el contacto visual para hacerle saber que la ve como algo más que una amiga.

So you can be sure that if he doesn’t look away the same second you catch him looking at you, he probably wants something more and this is how he’s letting you know.

3. Se lame los labios

Some men do this unintentionally and it’s a real sign of attraction. Imagine a scenario where you bump into him and you talk for a few minutes.

While you’re talking, you see him glancing at your lips and licking his. That’s a true physical sign he likes you because his brain is sending information to his body.

Después de ver tus labios, tiene una necesidad insaciable de besarlos, así que su cerebro envía esa información a su cuerpo y éste reacciona con un lametón.

Talk about a powerful sign of male attraction, right? Bonus points if you return the favor. That’s the chemistry that won’t go unnoticed.

Lips are one of the most sensual parts of a person’s body. You can only imagine what he plans on doing with them once you’re his.

4. Levanta las cejas

Su subconsciente desempeña el papel principal en esta situación. Si un hombre está hablando contigo y le gustas, su mente reproducirá esa información en su cabeza una y otra vez.

He may ignore the fact he likes you, maybe because he doesn’t want to show you or is scared to show you, but his subconscious mind will do all the work for him.

So the next time you see him raising his eyebrows while he’s talking to you, you can be sure that’s one of those poderosas señales de atracción masculina.

And the funny thing is, guys are mostly not even aware that they’re doing this.

So basically, you’ll know that he’s into you due to this entirely subconscious sign on his part. Pretty neat!

5. Respira profundamente

Usually, it’s completely normal that men take deeper breaths than women – it’s the way biology works – but there’s another reason why men take deep breaths when they’re in the presence of a woman.

Respirarán hondo mientras hablan contigo porque les ayuda a enderezarse y a ensanchar los hombros, lo que obviamente les ayuda a parecer más atractivas.

So if he’s literally fighting to catch his breath, you can assume he is interested in you.

Guys have that macho need to always look their masculine best, so they’ll resort to any type of way to get them there.

Así que la próxima vez que le veas respirar hondo, considéralo una señal evidente (por tonta que sea) de su atracción hacia ti.

6. Te toca

Not creepy touching, but nice touching – “accidental” touching.

This is one version of a body language sign that usually means he likes you, especially if he touches you on your knee or shoulder “unknowingly.”

However, this time we’re also talking about preening, which is when he touches his shoulders and arms, runs his hand through his hair, and tugs at his ears.

Significa que le gustas y que quiere estar guapo para ti, para impresionarte. El contacto físico es algo poderoso.

When a person you’re really into touches you, feelings rush through your body that you didn’t even know existed.

El tacto, cuando viene de la persona adecuada, es la señal de atracción masculina más poderosa que existe.

You’re both going to feel the sensation that simply overcomes you and makes you aware of the incredible chemistry between you.

7. Se inclina hacia ti

You can’t explain it but it’s just a sign of attraction and  tensión sensual he can’t resist.

This generally isn’t a real body language sign that he likes you, but it shows he is interested in you and wants to hear what you have to say.

Take yourself for example. When you’re around people you’re close to and whose opinion you’re interested in, you’re likely to lean toward them, even if totally subconsciously.

It’s a natural reaction. Those with whom you feel a strong pull make you want to lean in closer.

So if you’ve noticed this guy getting closer to you inch by inch, you know what the deal is.

He wouldn’t be doing it if he didn’t feel a strong pull toward you.

As I said, physical attraction is something you can hardly fight. When you feel it, you act accordingly in the presence of that person (whether you’re aware of it or not).

8. Te señala con los dedos de los pies

You’ve probably heard about this one. It’s very easy to approach this matter from a purely logical side.

Si señala con los pies hacia ti, significa que le gustas, pero el momento en que señala con los pies es crucial.

If you’re talking to him or touching him on his shoulder – actually showing any signs that you like him – and his feet point in another direction, then he’s probably no longer interested in you.

But if you’re doing all of the aforementioned, and he points his toes toward you, it’s an obvious sign of reciprocal feelings.

All on its own, it doesn’t necessarily guarantee you a wild carnal attraction, but it’s a good enough start.

Along with all the other signs, it’s a good reason for you to start making physical contact and explore this uncharted territory.

9. Se toca la garganta

This sign is tricky because it’s done by two kinds of guys: honest ones and dishonest ones.

Si lo ves como una buena señal, las investigaciones han demostrado que tocarse la garganta significa mostrar vulnerabilidad.

So if he’s willing to be vulnerable in front of you, that’s a sign of attraction.

But if he’s a bonafide jerk, then him touching his throat means he’s lying. So before jumping to any conclusions, read the rest of the signs before making any decisions.

If your guy exhibits some of the other signs that I’ve mentioned, then this is definitely a good thing. On its own, however, it doesn’t hold much merit.

10. Camina a tu lado

Puedes observar su forma de caminar desde una perspectiva psicológica y descubrir muchas cosas interesantes sobre sus sentimientos hacia ti.

Si se adelanta a ti, significa que está más preocupado por sí mismo que por ti y probablemente sea muy egoísta.

But if he walks by your side, he cares for you and sees you as his equal, and that’s the direction in which you want to go.

It’s very simple and reassuring. Walking by your side, following your pace and not rushing ahead or slowing down for no apparent reason shows you that he’s comfortable right where he is.

Seguir tu ejemplo y ver adónde te lleva.

10 señales no físicas de atracción masculina

Now that we’ve covered the physical aspects of male attraction, let’s delve into a different side to this whole thing.

Other than showing it with his body and gaze, there are other ways a guy will show you he’s got a crush on you.

¿Cómo?

A través de su comportamiento y tendencias cuando está en tu presencia.

Here, I won’t be talking about how his leaning in means that he’s into you, here, we’ll see what his behavior uncovers about his intentions.

It’s in the way he talks and how he reacts to certain things regarding you. It’s in the things he notices that not many do, and how nervous he gets when it’s just the two of you.

Before I give it all away, you can find out what I’m talking about below and see for yourself. So… Does he check any of these boxes?

11. Habla de sí mismo

But in a good way! He isn’t full of himself or obnoxiously exhausting by blabbing about himself all the time.

Instead, he occasionally mentions a few of his qualities and the things he likes and doesn’t like.

Suele hablar de sus lados buenos, lo cual es perfectamente razonable, ya que le gustas y quiere gustarte a ti también.

Habla de sí mismo porque quiere que le veas de la mejor manera posible.

You can’t blame a guy for trying so hard, only to be noticed by you, right? It’s endearing and so sweet, really.

If he didn’t like you, he wouldn’t bother because who cares what you think? He is who he is.

When he’s super into you, though, he’ll make sure to show you his best side (just like you would too).

12. He’s a good listener

So, there’s a big difference between guys who just act like they’re present while you’re talking to them and the ones who actually give a damn about what you have to say.

If you see that he is looking through you and not at you, he is probably just hearing murmurs and not paying attention to a single word you’re saying.

But when he actually participates in the conversation and shows interest in what you have to say, then that’s un signo evidente de atracción.

Guys tend to just lose your train of thought halfway because they can’t be bothered to listen to a girl go on about her girly stuff.

But when a guy actually listens and offers input, girl… you’ve got him hooked. You and I both know that men have selective hearing.

So this right here really proves how deeply he’s crushing on you.

13. Se pone celoso

Jealousy is good as long as it’s under control. A bit of jealousy shows you that the person likes you and is worried he might lose you.

But if this goes too far, it can show he’s posesivo y te quiere toda para él, lo que, por supuesto, no es bueno.

Si ves en él un lado posesivo, prepárate, ya que podría querer capturarte y no dejarte respirar en absoluto.

But if you see a hint of jealousy, it means he really cares for you and is just worried he might lose something he cherishes – you.

Jealousy is actually a really good sign of a guy’s affection, as long as it’s not overwhelmingly substantial.

It’s about caring who you spend time with when you’re not around him (is there another guy in your life?), wanting to be near you all the time, and feeling a hint of jealousy upon seeing a male friend talking to you (is he secretly into you as well?) and so many more little things!

It’s a really obvious sign and you know this is the case.

Guys don’t get jealous over girls they’re not into.

14. Quiere pasar más tiempo contigo

Si sacrifica su tiempo libre para pasarlo contigo, puedes estar absolutamente segura de que le gustas y quiere estar contigo.

If he’s seeking your attention by asking you random questions, it means that he cares about your opinion and, therefore, you.

Si ves que se aferra desesperadamente a cualquier tipo de conversación simplemente para mantenerte cerca, ¡este chico está loco por ti!

Pasar tiempo con alguien significa realmente querer estar cerca de él sin otra razón que disfrutar plenamente de su presencia.

And if your guy seems to always be around… you know what it means. Go get him, girl!

15. Actúa de forma diferente a su alrededor

You’ll get the best proof of this theory if you observe his behavior when he’s out with his friends or just surrounded by the people he loves.

If he acts differently around you than everybody else, then there’s something there.

If he’s nervous or less loud than usual, it means he changes his behavior around you because he is being careful not to blow your relationship.

Y lo mejor es que probablemente lo hace sin saberlo.

People change their way of speaking, walking, or simply standing, depending on who they’re around.

If there’s someone he wants to impress, he’ll instantly try to fix anything that might need fixing and change how he is, in order to give himself the best shot at you liking him back!

So don’t worry if you see him fidgeting around you or being an awkward flirt.

His body doesn’t know what to do with itself when you’re there as the feelings are too strong to be acting rationally.

16. Te hace cumplidos

Los hombres son criaturas visuales, a diferencia de las mujeres. A las mujeres les gusta expresarse verbalmente, mientras que los hombres se limitan a mirar y observar.

If he compliments you, it means that he’s been watching you and feels atraído a ti, así que quiere hacértelo saber porque le gustas.

Quiere hacerte sentir bien para ganar puntos contigo porque quiere estar contigo.

Si recibe un cumplido de un amigo íntimo, however, that probably isn’t a sign of attraction, but just a friendly input on acknowledging your good looks or something you did right.

It’s important to know the difference between a guy who has a crush on you and a friend simply complimenting you out of the kindness of his heart.

When it comes from the guy you like, you’ll just be able to feel that there’s so much more there than a simple compliment. You need to be able to read between the lines.

17. He’s interested in the things you’re interested in

Try to mention a few things you like casually in conversation – for example, a band you like or your favorite singer.

If when you see him next he asks you to go to your favorite singer’s concert with him, you can definitely be sure he likes you and is attracted to you.

There’s something even better than this, and that’s if he actually grows to like something you like.

Entonces puede estar seguro de que es interesado en ti y quiere tener algo más contigo.

¿Cuántas veces has intentado hacer entrar en razón a tu mejor amigo, que se niega a dar una oportunidad a tu cantante favorito y no ha escuchado ni una sola canción?

But this guy will not only listen to one song, but he’ll also check out the entire album, give you a list of his favorite jams and ask you for more artists to check out! Who does that?

¡Un tipo al que le gustas y quiere estar en tu gracia!

Take a hint. I’m sure the music you’re showing him is rad, but I bet there’s someone else he’s even more interested in than the artist in question.

18. Sus amigos se burlan de ti

This sign of attraction is completely undeniable. If he likes you, he’ll definitely tell his friends all about it.

So the next time you’re among his friends, watch them closely, and if they tease him or make jokes at his expense, then you can be sure he likes you but just hasn’t told you about it yet.

This has always been a dead giveaway of a man’s affection.

¿Recuerdas que en el instituto siempre se burlaban del chico que te gustaba (o viceversa) y tú sabías (y probablemente odiabas) que le gustabas?

Only now, as grown-ups, it’s a more mature version.

Now, you don’t want to turn invisible when this happens because now you know better!

19. Se da cuenta cuando cambias de look

Men don’t usually keep track of this. You can get a haircut or change the color of your hair and they won’t notice it, even if you were literally flaunting your new look in their faces.

But when you’ve been around a particular guy enough, and suddenly you changed your look, he’ll start noticing the changes.

A guy who likes you pays special attention to the way you look and behave, so any new changes won’t go unnoticed.

This is the clear sign that you’ve been looking for.

I bet your own dad wouldn’t notice if you got a buzz-cut (dads… am I right?) but a guy who instantly sees and comments on your new appearance, clearly has been paying close attention to you for a while.

20. Se burla de ti de forma simpática

When a guy teases you in a polite and honest way, it’s cute. It’s his way of making you understand that he likes you and has a aplastar en ti.

Quiere ver tu reacción y que tú le devuelvas las bromas para hacer las cosas más interesantes.

Puede ponerte motes tontos, hacer el tonto o burlarse de ti por algo que odias de ti mismo, pero de una forma simpática y coqueta, sin comentarios malintencionados.

Sólo quiere que reacciones y le devuelvas las bromas. Y en el fondo, quiere averiguar si hay atracción entre vosotros dos, porque por su parte seguro que la hay.

He’s throwing you a bone and if you’re smart, you’ll pick it up and reciprocate.

Explore the banter and see if it’s organic and natural. Being teased by a guy you like is one of the cutest (and most obvious) signs of male attraction.

En resumen

Como ves, hay muchas formas de averiguar si le gustas a un chico sin tener que preguntárselo directamente.

Puedes verlo a través de su lenguaje corporal (se acerca a ti, se inclina hacia ti), el contacto visual (te mira fijamente e inmediatamente aparta la mirada cuando le pillas), y tantas formas en las que su comportamiento te delatará su enamoramiento por ti.

Take this professional advice in stride. Help yourself stop fidgeting around this guy and make physical contact to see if there’s a telltale sign of his interest.

Make sure you’re not invading his personal space because that can hurt his self-esteem.

Every guy handles their feelings toward a romantic interest in their own way, and if you’re dealing with a shy guy, it’s best to wait for a dead giveaway or clear signs of attraction to be certain before rushing into unknown waters.

Guys are peculiar beings and they’ll often wait for ages to act on their feelings because they don’t want to bite off more than they can chew.

Pero si ves que el chico se comporta de forma extraña a tu alrededor, muestra signos inusuales de protección y siempre está cerca de ti, dale un respiro y da el primer paso.

He’s giving you all the signals and now all you have to do is acknowledge them and show him that his point has been received loud and clear.

And now that you’ve finally got that out of the way, it’s time to get this show on the road!
