You don't have to be a psychic to peer into a woman's thoughts. Even when they don't say anything, women send a flood of subtle physical cues and gestures that can reveal their truest intentions--including if they secretly want you. Here's how to pick up on 10 of her biggest tells:
1. She's got big peepers.
When you're talking to her, watch to see if the black centers in her eyes grow larger. If they do, that means she's excited by what you're saying, and maybe even sexually aroused. A study at Cornell University found that when women looked at pornographic photos, their pupils dilated--even if those sexy images were of a woman. But don't take that to mean she's into a three-way, the researchers caution.
2. She sounds like a Chipmunk.
Notice her voice becoming slightly squeakier when she's chatting with you? Then she probably thinks you're a hottie. Researchers in Scotland found that when women left voice mail messages for a man they found attractive, their voices shot up in pitch.
3. She plays with her hair.
Any kind of self-grooming gesture around the face--like tucking her hair behind one ear, or playing with her earring--indicates that she's primping herself to make a good impression, according to body language research.
4. She looks like McKayla Maroney.
The gymnast's famous "not impressed" face, where she raises the corner of her lip, is in fact a near-universal expression of contempt, according to a study at the University of California. That means she seriously disapproves of something she just saw or heard. But have faith, because it might not be you: If you can clue in on the object of her scorn--a hated song, or someone acting rudely--you could share some common ground.
5. Her feet are pointed at you.
This might be an early sign you've caught her eye, even if she hasn't yet turned her head your way and is pretending to focus on her friends. Body language experts say you subconsciously point your feet toward whatever currently has your attention because your body is preparing to move in that direction. And it cuts both ways: If you're trying to hit on a woman and her toes point away from you--toward a different guy, perhaps--it sadly means her thoughts are elsewhere.
6. She leans forward with wide arms.
Maybe she's braced against the bar like a sprinter at the starting line, or her hands could be on her hips. Either way, variations of that wide-armed gesture mean she's feeling confident and powerful. In fact, when researchers at Columbia University asked women to take on this powerful pose, they were 86 percent more likely to gamble their money than those who stood protectively hugging their chest. Perhaps she'll take a chance on you, too.
7. Her lips are pursed.
It almost looks like she's ready for a kiss, except her lips are too tight to be inviting. It's a natural reaction you make when you're trying to keep yourself from blurting out a thought you don't want to voice out loud, according to the Center for Nonverbal Studies in Spokane, Washington. If she's making this face, it means she likely disagrees with something you said.
8. She shakes her head when saying "yes."
In her mind, she really means "no." (The reverse is true, too.) Inconsistency between what someone is saying and the involuntary non-verbal cues their body gives off indicates lying--or at least some attempt to hide the truth--90 percent of the time, according to the Federal Bureau of Investigation.
9. Her eyes crinkle when she smiles.
In a smile of genuine joy, tiny wrinkles will appear--or deepen, if she's a bit older--at the corner of her eyes, according to a Welsh study. A smile without the laugh lines means she's faking her amusement or happiness.
10. Her chest is red.
Okay, this one will take longer than 10 minutes to see--unless you've got incredible game. A pink flush that begins just above her breasts and spreads up her neck or even down her arms is a sign that she's very sexually aroused and is likely close to an orgasm. In fact, it's one of the few signs of orgasm that can't be faked--although scientists say not all women show the "sex flush" when they're turned on.
