Part 1

The wonderful thing about body language is that no matter where one travels body language is a universal phenomenon. Emotional body language, closed up body language, romantic body language, relaxed body language, and open body language, are some of the main types of body language. Body language can communicate the following ideas; real interest in caring about a person (so much but they do not know how to say it), and or identifying feelings, where some one does not realize that they even have feelings for some one else. Body language can also be used in demonstrating one’s power, to show feelings of comfort, ease and attraction to others.

Different cultures think different things with hand a gesture, looking in the eye are or is not acceptable same.Little touches are what you see in a relationship. Little touches lie caressing the face; where someone is cupping the partner’s face in your hands is a sign of strong feeling. “It’s not something that you decide to do; it just happens in an outpouring of emotion” (Whiffen).This is a way to show a person partner that they care about them. Looking in their eyes is letting them know that they are more than their lover but also a great friend. These are some of the things that human do to show there love for one other. Love is a have strong thing that is in every body life and we show it in so many ways. People commonly express love using both verbal and nonverbal messages. In the study by Shaver et al (1987), the love prototype included emotions such as love, passion, affection and desire.

Each person’s body is unique, but all people share some common gesture in body language. For example, students might not get in trouble for what they say but for how they stand, the way they look and how they gesture. “That’s why people who are adept at reading body language are often more successful in relationship,” say Jan Hargraue a body language expert and author of Let Me See Your Body Talk.
