Have you ever found yourself wondering if a Latina woman you’re interested in feels the same way about you? Interpreting the signs of attraction can be tricky, especially when cultural nuances come into play.
Before you head to Mexico or Colombia, you should take the time to learn a few things about Latin dating rules first. That way, you’ll understand the local women and their dating norms better and get to know what to expect when it comes to love and romance there. We’re here to help you with that!
This article dives into the fascinating world of dating and body language cues specific to Hispanic women. Whether you’re new to dating in this cultural context or looking for reassurance, this guide is worth your time.
She Touches You Repeatedly
Your girl would touch your hands and elbows time and again. It can be at a shopping mall, restaurant, a friend’s party, or any other public place. She would try to play it cool and make it look accidental – it isn’t. Casual hugs are not ruled out either.
Colombian women, for example, are notoriously famous for resorting to casual touches to convey their consent. That will likely mix with other subtle hints such as looking at you in a seductive way or other signs included in this article. Please treat this as a sure-shot sign and approach her confidently about taking the next step.
She Plays with Her Hair
When a girl touches her hair or twirls her hair and has a big smile on her face, it is a universal body language gesture, and there is hardly any ambiguity in it. Be it the USA, Europe, or Asia – when a girl plays with her hair, give yourself an imaginary pat on the back, draw confidence from your time together and ask her out for the next date, ideally at a more romantic place.
It is one of those tell-tale signs a Hispanic girl likes you. In some dating cultures (like Cuba), it can indicate the girl is a little bit nervous as well. It means she likes you but feels nervous around you and wants you to make the next move.
She Laughs Freely around You
This one is a common Latina stereotype. It is one of the most apparent ways to know if a Latina is interested in you and is easy to notice. During initial meet-ups, she would have a sophistication that would gradually fade away. If you reach a stage where she feels very comfortable with you and laughs uncontrollably, it is an indication that you have breached her outer boundary and are among those close to her.
You Have Her Full Attention
You definitely know a Brazilian or Mexican woman is interested in you if she gives you her full attention when spending time with you. She gets your full attention, listens attentively when you talk and participates in the conversation by asking questions and sharing her opinions. You can also see in her body language that she’s “there” with you.
A woman who’s not interested, on the other hand, will spend most of her time on her phone or glancing around the restaurant when you’re on a date.
She Introduces you to Her Family
Latin American women are often portrayed as the modern, bikini-clad bombshells posing on beaches. Even though there’s an element of truth to it, they have been brought up in conservative families, and many of them are traditionalists at heart.
Meeting the family of your Latina girl is a big deal for her. It is a strong indication that she trusts you, considers you special, and may be interested in a serious relationship with you.
Well, there is an element of double-edge to it. Introducing close ones to the family is common when dating women in Mexico, so you might have been put in the friend zone as well, though we would root for the opposite!
She Shares Her Interests Passionately
Hispanic women are known for not being very good at keeping a conversation going. They are usually happy to answer whatever you ask.
However, if your date starts sharing her interests with you and carries on, it is an excellent sign that she is interested in you. You have conquered the first frontier of knowing her as a person – giving her the attention and trust she needs.
It is her way of telling you that she knows you well enough to share her stuff with you. It is also an invitation to take more interest in her personal life and get to know her better. Do not let this opportunity slip!
She Takes An Interest in Your Life
If she starts asking more and more about your interests, your family, etc. it is a good sign that she likes you and you have her attention and curiosity. Her questions are well-placed, in that sweet spot between casual and deeply personal, which is a way of letting you know that she wants to know you as a person, and her attraction goes beyond appearance.
She Plans the Second Date
When your Latina girlfriend starts coming up with ideas about making your next date more special and openly suggests it should be more romantic, you are definitely in for a treat. Not only does she want to meet you again, but she also wants to make that meeting more romantic. Do not hold back – play along and make sure she is pleasantly surprised on your next date. This Hispanic girl is interested, there is no doubt, so get yourself together, prepare and go on that second date!
