As a guy I seem to find it fairly difficult to read the signs of a female.I met this girl a couple of weeks ago and we started to talk on and off and see each other randomly. We started to chat over msn which quickly carried to the phone through text messages and phone calls here and there.We then started to see each other more often as she works around 10 minutes away from me. We then started to meet up in the evenings and go home together on the subway at least two to three times a week. Whenever we are sitting together she is always smiling or laughing at something, twirling her hair or is fidgety. We met up recently and she told me how she met one of her ex’s the other day. She told me how he was fully hitting on her and in her head she was like (get away from me already) he ended up putting his phone number in her cell phone and told her to call him. So being the inquisitive type I told her to call him and she was like no way he’s creepy. So what was the point of telling me this is what confuses me.What confuses me though is that sometimes when she is laughing her arms are folded but she is still smiling. When someone normally folds their arms are they not being defensive?There have been times where I would just look at her and she would end up being very shy and cover her face and end up laughing. We talk to each other everyday or every other day. Is this something that is currently unfolding and developing slowly? Is she waiting for me to act on this? Lastly I feel as if I am over analyzing things…help!

I think that you should just ask her out, At least then you will know where you stand! Ask her to go for a drink, nothing too formal, maybe after work?
I think she told you about her ex because she was trying to make you jealous! She was probably trying to tempt you to ask her out!
At the end of the day you dont have anything to lose by just being straight forward and honest!

reader, anonymous, writes (18 July 2008): Given the information you have provided, I would say yes, she is really into you. Talking almost everyday...I would say yes! Women and men alike, become more self aware when they are in the company of someone they are attracted to. Some handle it well, appearing suave or alluring. Others, myself included, become clowns making clumsy mistakes, stuttering, hiding smiles, folding arms, tripping and acting indecisive. I use to have a fear of stairs because I often would trip down them if walking with my former crush.=)In regards to the information she provided out her ex: I think she meant to provide you with some assurance that she is free and that she is ready to move on from her last relationship. What she basically told you is she has an ex (maybe they recently broke up) and she has absolutely no interest in getting back together with him. She is not sentimental about him in the least. This fact should give you some confidence in that she would be susceptible to the idea of a new relationship.Ask her out for a date, dinner and a movie or something. She is probably wondering why you haven't yet.Best of luck.
