The 7 Signs That Say "I'm Hot For You"

1. The Eyebrow Raise.

When you catch someone's gaze from across the room, smile and raise both eyebrows in a quick flash (Mr. Big on Sex and the City perfected this move). This is a sign, say the experts, of interest, excitement, and arousal. Just make sure to raise both brows simultaneously; a solo brow raise is a sign of anger, skepticism, or doubt.

2. The Copy Cat

When you like someone, mimic his moves. If he leans forward, you lean forward. If he strokes his chin, stroke yours. The idea is to mirror him in a way that conveys intimacy and synchronicity. Just make sure you're only copying his positive gestures -- and don't be too obvious about it. Wait a few beats before you mirror and do it subtly, or it will look like mocking, not mimicking.

3. Blink

If you like something you're looking at, your eye blinks more frequently. So when you're talking to the super stud at the bar, try blinking more (just don't get carried away or he'll think you've lost a contact lens). If he blinks more himself in response, bingo! The boy is attracted.

4. The Lip Lick

When in doubt, wet your whistle.This is a direct sign of interest. As a lip pucker (looks like you're ready for a kiss). Just don't bet your lips - this according to the experts, means you're nervous, afraid to speak or hoping he'll shut up soon.

5. The Full-Frontal Lean

Think of this as a little flirty hokey-pokey maneuver. Ya put your whole self in . . . this indicated that you're both eager to hear what he has to sayand also eager to get close, closer, closest with every inch of your being. Sitting in a chair? Ever so slowly slide forward, and move your head, shoulders, knees, toes. . . you name it, toward him. By far, the clearest body language moves. If he doesn't get this one, the only thing left to do is jump in his lap.

6. The Hair Twirl

As you're giving the guy across the room "a look," slowly wind a few strands of hair seductively around your fingers. Got his attention? Now run your fingertips through your hair, like a sex kitten preening her fur. A hair toss also works well: simply toss one side over your shoulder, then the other (Cher made this an art form). Just remember to keep your moves slow, seductive, and teasingly playful (or you will look as if you're pulling your hair out . . . not a good thing). Guys can do this move, too. Watch for a guy who strokes his beard, mustache or spikes his hair.

7. The Leg Openner

Remember Sharon Stone's interrogation scene in Basic Instinct? Okay, you don't want to necessarily go that far - or wide. But by slightly openning or separating your legs when seated, you're communicating a subtle, sexual invitation. A man can also give an open invitation with his legs - or hang his fingers in his belt loops, pointing your attention toward you-know-what.
