However, friendship between representatives of the opposite sexes is a rather rare phenomenon, so the main attention in the article will be paid to romantic feelings.

In this case, people are attracted to each other, which can subsequently develop into something more. The degree of sympathy for a person can vary from a slight interest to a real storm of emotions in the soul.

It cannot be said unequivocally for how long one person understands that he likes another. Sometimes this happens in the first seconds of dating. Sometimes the feeling grows and develops gradually in the process of communication.

The factors influencing the occurrence of sympathy are numerous. First of all, this appearance person. This is what they pay attention to at the very beginning. However, this factor is not determining. It happens that in the process of communication, the first enthusiastic impression spoils and interest disappears. There are other situations when a person opens up in a conversation and charms with its charismadespite external flaws.

Sustainable sympathy appears when several factors add up to one combination, which a person subconsciously regards as suitable for him. it vote person manner communication gestures and even smell. Natural charm, intelligence, sense of humor and other qualities that are manifested in communication can enhance emotions and a desire to continue acquaintance.

Recognizing whether both people feel the same thing is easy.

2. They unknowingly correct clothes, hair take positioning "open" poses.

5. If people intersect in common companies or at work, with mutual interest, they involuntarily turn to each other, meet with their eyes, try to talk and find common themes.
6. If people communicate periodically, sincere interest can be determined by how well they remember the details of conversations and other details, whether they are interested in each other’s hobbies and tastes.
7. Also, in the case of sympathy, there is a desire to do something pleasant. For example, men give compliments, give flowers, show care and attention, offer help in some situations.
8. It’s easy to determine if there is mutual attraction, if after the first meeting a man invites a girl on a date, and she agrees. In this case, both well-groomed and well-dressed come to the meeting. They tend to get closer physically (to get up or sit closer, as if by chance to touch each other).
9. Another sure sign that allows you to understand that a person likes you is his sincere smile at a meeting. Even on the most unfortunate day, communication with the object of sympathy can cheer up.

Unfortunately, sometimes sympathy is not reciprocal. To find out about this, it is enough to observe the behavior of another person. If during a conversation he is distracted, constantly looks at his watch or phone, this may be a sign of lack of interest. Although, of course, it is possible that the interlocutor is simply afraid to be late for an important meeting or is waiting for a business call. But if he frankly misses you, almost does not look at you, thinks about something of his own, does not ask questions at all, most likely, you could not interest him.

In this case, the choice of behavior depends on how cool the other person’s attitude towards you is. If a person does not show categorical hostility and absolute indifference, you can try to take the initiative. It is possible that there is still little interest in you, it just needs to be developed and strengthened. This is especially true of the stronger sex. The more persistently the courtship of a man, the more likely he is to succeed. Often, girls hide their feelings in order to see if a potential partner will seek their location.

As for the beautiful ladies, the situation here is more complicated. Actively caring for a chosen one, inviting him to dates, annoying calls and messages is not worth it. But you can unobtrusively show sympathy. For example, in casual communication, it is worth showing a sincere interest in a man, asking him questions about his hobbies, work. In common companies or in a team, one can occasionally throw meaningful looks at the object of sympathy.

If during further communication it becomes clear that there is no hope of reciprocity, the attempt at rapprochement should be stopped. If the interlocutor fences off, tries to move away, tersely answers, frowns or even yawns, it is better to leave him alone.

A particularly disturbing sign is the joy of a person when a third person appears during a conversation. This means that communication with you does not bring him any pleasure.
