How can you tell the difference between a connection and attraction after the first meeting?

Usually body language will confirm the attraction. Connection is much harder to guage as it takes sometime. Connection happens after sharing of mutual interests, likes, personalities, commonalities, etc.

You will sense their attraction. Eye contact, moving closer to you, smiling, even a nervous smile. Attention given to you..@wanderlinglilacs22:

@CharmedHeart: hmm, in my case, I was in a cafeteria, at a high stool table, so hard to say :/ Given, he has a reputation for being a gentleman and outgoing...

if you actually care about their thoughts and things in their life and its not just skin deep and being superficial.

i know, all im saying is worry about you and you will know. you will never truly know by signs. you just go about it naturally and from that you will get it thru his actions. if there was some big sign that we all give when we are interested we all would be in lasting relationships. he can hide his feelings, he can be faking his feelings, you probably wont know until he shows you his true intentions.

Attraction is felt below the belt. Connection is felt above the belt.

@wanderlinglilacs22: physical signs of attraction? of connection?
wanderlinglilacs22 · 26-30, F
@Yulianna: either or both :)

@wanderlinglilacs22: well, if you have connected, i think you will recognise signs... and attraction? dilated pupils, increase blood flow to sexual organs, flushing... asking waiter to clear table so you can throw yourself across it...

It starts in the mind and it then moves lower

Really? Well, for me, I feel a slight attraction at first glance, depending....but intellectual attraction, too is rare! :)
