Body language of attraction
So, in my analysis of whether or not the boy I like may have similar feelings I have done some research on body language. I came across "hands on hips" as a nearly giveaway sign that a guy is interested. So today I was in my class as usual and we play this review game right before tests. So when it was his turn to stand up he stood up and put his hands on his hips. Is this the giveaway sign that I read about? I mean, he wasn't talking to me or anything, he was simply standing up to answer a question. Though technically since he sits next to me he was facing my direction when he did it. Am I reading too much into this? It isn't exactly the only sign I've gotten from him, but I just found it really shocking when I saw him do this. Thanks guys. ;)

Body language is a lot more complex than just "this action means this thought/feeling"
Body language is subtle and individual with a ton of similar overtones. Psychology and physiology dictate certain reactions while larger gestures are often dependent on the person and their personality.
I'd say, in that situation, that hands on his hips was a sign of confident assertion of himself upon the world. In other words, you basically saw that he isn't a stage fright kind of person, and wasn't scared of being the center of attention.
Guy body language is all about eyes. Watch his eyes, and they'll tell you all you need to know. In other words, if he's checking you out, he's interested. Wear something sexy yet fairly conservative the next time you're around him. Something that makes you look hot without showing any skin. Showing cleavage or leg or thong straps give us a target we like looking at even if we're not particularly interested. Giving us no target at all lets you see if we're interested anyway.
Make eye contact. Bite your lip. Pretend to notice something that lets you turn your head and show a little neck (necks are sexy). Touch your hands to places you want him to look (subtly, like you're not really thinking about what you're doing yourself). Smile at him. Smiles are positive reinforcement, it lets him know that he's not fucking up so badly you're repulsed.

The research on body language is weak at best. The main message you can get from people's body language is whether or not they are comfortable in a situation, but says nothing about the reason.
He could be putting his hands on his hips because his back is sore, or he is about to break out in a riverdance, or a million other reasons.
You want to read body language? Smile at him, look him straight in the eye and say "good morning!" tomorrow. I am betting you will be able to figure out if he is into you or not.

Body language can be misinterpreted a lot of times so i wouldnt go on that to see if he likes you or not because that doesnt seem accurate i think the only way to know is if he flirted with you and hung out and talked to you all the time or looked at you all the time or if he told you he did so ya dont go by the body language because it might be wrong. Concentrate more on his actions than his body language it will help you understand more trust me. Good luck :D
