3. Rubbing-Hands When somebody rubs their hands together quickly, it’s a sign of positive expectation. You may be experienced. If you are talking about exciting plans, you may rub your hand quickly and say “I couldn’t wait.” It means you are impatience looking forward to the event. Besides, when you are throwing the dices, you may rub the dices quickly before you throw. It signs you hopes of good fortune.

4. Clenched-Hands When somebody clenched their hands on the lap, it means frustration, restraint, anxiety or negative thoughts. Whenever there are competitions or interviews, you may see people are waiting outside to prepare. At that time, they may sit on the chair and clenched their hands and feel uneasy.

5. Head-Supported When someone is using their hand to support their head, it’s a clear sign of boredom and an attempt to restrain themselves from falling asleep by finding a support point to rest their heads. It usually can be see when studying or thinking something.

6. Evaluating Someone who is paying close attention to and is genuinely interested in what you are saying will close their hand and rest it on their chin or cheek occasionally using their index finger to point upwards. If they feels negative or don’t agree with you, they will start resting their head on their thumb and index finger, sometimes using the index finger to rub eyes, to reinforce their critical thoughts about what you’re saying.

7. Single-Leg Crossed Crossing our legs is interpreted as a submissive, defensive or closed minded attitude, as if symbolically protecting. It is also thought to be a sign used by people with low confidence, if you watch a group of people you’ll observe there’s sometimes someone with their arms and leg crossed, usually that person is someone who is new to the group and feels insecure and withdrawn around the strangers.

8. Angle-Locked When sitting or lying down, locking our ankles together is a sign that we are holding back and trying to repress an emotion such as fear or uncertainty, and usually we tuck in our feet under the chair which also shows a withdrawn feeling from that situation. If you ask a dentist about his patients he will confirm 9 out of 10 patients lock their ankles when they are receiving an injection.
