Falling In Love Can Be Seen From Body Language, Here Are 5 Signs

JAKARTA - A study on non-verbal communication, namely body language, reveals the couple's general ways of communicating love and affection for each other. Although there are some signs that cannot be read by people and only known by the couple itself. But there are signs of a very clear body language showing that your partner is in love.

Launching the Psychology Today page, Tuesday, July 9, here are the signs;

The partner's body language falls in love visible from the face. The subtle signal on the face and eyes is very important in conveying love and affection. Couples who are in love tend to bring their bodies closer to each other, thus allowing greater visual attention to subtle facial gestures.

In general, lovers display positive emotions in their facial expressions, however, unlike the expression of joy, these emotions are more immersed and smooth. His smile is only a glimpse or eyebrows are raised for a moment, which couples can only detect. Another clear signal is to look at each other. In fact, one way to measure the level of love for a partner is the amount of time they make eye contact.

Couples who are in love tend to move in harmony with each other. Communication expert and non-verbal relationship John Gottman calls certain body language gestures a non-verbal response. Responses can be in the form of views, touches, or signs of any body language that tells other people, 'I care about you and want to connect with you.' In fact, Gottman and colleagues argue that when one of the partners constantly does not respond to their partner's response, this could be an indication that the relationship between the two is getting less and less.

Although couples can tease each other in various ways, some of the nonverbal signs of seduction are very common. For example, changing the tone of the voice to be softer is a distinctive and very effective signal of seduction when used by women.

Men use physical closeness more often as a tempting signal, entering their partner's personal space as a way to increase their partner's passion. Smiling and laughing are other signs of seduction used by lovers.

In one study, it was found that people tend to express seduction through body language and facial gestures in a different way. However, one consistent finding is that if the signal is judged by the observer as 'positive', then the signal will be more tempting. Body language signatures that are viewed negative seem as 'aggressive' are not judged tempting.

The most consistent sign of the language of the love body is touch. Couples who are in love will usually hold hands more often, arms circle their shoulders, or touch their knees while sitting. Smooth touch can create sexual arousal or just provide certainty, that 'I'm here for you'.
