Take his emotional temperature just by watching and listening.
It's easier to know how he feels when you recognize the clues in his voice, his manner, his actions. Just check for the signs.
Look closely. There's a pattern here. You may be meeting, talking, interacting, but how strong is the connection? One reaction is lukewarm. The other may be warm and focused. His tone of voice can tell you a lot. Is it friendly and eager? Or calm and remote.? Does he makes a point of talking just to you?
His expression can be a giveway. Does he tend to grin when he sees you, or look a moment longer than needed when talking to you? Does he appear bored when you talk, or does he look focused and eager to hear what you are saying?
His willingness to be close says a lot. Men who are not interested will stand somewhat apart. When he is interested he will move closer, touch your shoulder, reach for your hand. He might smile and give you a quick hug.
Does he tease or make you laugh? If he feels affectionate, intrigued by you he's apt to enjoy teasing you. Every little thing that you do pleases him and he lets you know with playful remarks. He may do funny little things that only the two of you really understand.
Does he really pay attention to who you are? Your comfort, your ideas, where you are, what you are doing all get quick positive responses from him. He asks your opinion, seeks your suggestions. When you email or call he responds thoughtfully and promptly. When you make plans he follows thru with the perfect arrangements. He asks about your friends and family and makes the effort to get to know them.
Check off his reactions and decide where he stands.
