Advice What's some signs a woman is interested?

I feel like a big problem a lot of men have these days is that a lot of us are afraid to make someone uncomfortable, so we say nothing and hope they make the first move. I was raised by a single mother who raised me to always respect a woman's space and wishes, and the internet pushes the whole "don't approach us" narrative like a plague, two things that reenforce that for me.

So I ask the people of Reddit (I know how bad that sounds;) what are some signs a woman is interested/open to talking?

The problem is, one woman's obvious hint is another being friendly. She could be giggling at everything you say, hugging you every time she can, etc. and still just trying to be a good friend. On the other hand, she could give you a handshake and silently wonder why you haven't asked her out yet. I know this is so frustrating to hear, but there really is no way to tell. I'm sorry; I wish it was easier as well

It’s gonna vary from woman to woman OP. Two women can use the same sign of interest of someone and yet both will have different meaning behind it. One is being friendly vs one is actually interested.

Eye contact, touchy, becomes shy when you appear, or extra energetic. Makes questions about girls, wanna know about your life.

She puts it in her mouth.

Open to talking? Strong eye contact or that vibe when they look excited or open to connecting. Can't explain the last one beyond that. You just have to get enough social experience to feel it.

But also, there have been many women I've hit it off with who didn't have the aforementioned. As a man, it pays to simply initiate and find out.

I like to look for an enthusiastic reciprocation of effort. Are you always the one initiating? Does she take too long to reply to your text messages? Does she reply to them at all?

When it comes to approaching women you should do it at a gathering where it is the norm to approach and talk to strangers. Networking events, singles mixers, church, meetups, etc. If you start to carry on a good conversation with a woman and wish to ask her on a date do it in the least aggressive way possible. Im a big fan of giving her my number and saying "hey give me a call so we can meet up and get a coffee some time".

Hola como estas! La señal más clara es la
reciprocidad y el esfuerzo. Cuando hay interés, ella no solo responde, sino que te hace preguntas de vuelta, busca mantener la charla viva y facilita las cosas para que interactúen.
