How come I see so many people doing it? Seriously, alot of girls do it, even guys who get alot of chicks do it sometimes.
"She's Out of Your League"
You've said it a hundred times. Maybe a thousand. And every time you say it, you train your brain to freeze the next time she walks into the room.
Leagues are a myth invented by guys who are scared of women.
She's a person. She has bad breath in the morning. She picks songs she can't sing in the shower. She overthinks her own texts.
Walk over. Say something. The league dissolves the second you open your mouth.
If crossing your arms is closed posture...

"She Wants a Man, Not a Boy"
You asked her if she wanted to grab coffee. Then you asked if the time worked. Then you asked if the place was okay. Then you asked if she'd prefer tea.
Four questions. Four chances for her to say no. Four signals that you're terrified of making a decision.
Plan it. Pick the place. Pick the time. Tell her where to meet you. She'll either show up or she won't.
Either way, you look like a man instead of a scared little boy.

Well, this is a very interesting observation of body-language indeed. It appears as if these people are closed, in some way, and do not wish to be open. I believe if these people wished to be open, they would unfold their arms, and maybe even face the fronts of their wrists ******ds (a non-verbal signal of openness).

Or they find it to be a very comfortable position.
Ever accomplished something big, and felt the need to stand back, cross your arms, and admire your work?
When reading body language you shouldn't base your opinions on their mood on one specific bodily action.

I feel comfortable with my arms crossed.. Doesn't mean I'm not open to talking, I just feel comfortable because I don't know what else to do with my arms.
I'm making an effort to change that though and do it less..

“The 22 Psychological Triggers That Make Women Chase You… Starting Tonight”
Forget the cash, the cars, and the chiseled jawlines. Female desire operates on a completely different frequency. Primal. Subconscious. Triggers that bypass her logic and hit her on a gut level. Most guys are totally blind to them.
I know because I was one of them. The overthinking. The paralysis. The silent drive home kicking yourself for freezing up. Watching average guys walk away with the girl while you stood there stuck in your own head.
Then I decoded the psychology behind what actually makes women tick. 22 hard rules. Subtle behavioral shifts that rewired my entire reality. The anxiety evaporated. Women started leaning in. Investing. Chasing.

Crossed arms is bad body language..

It is usually a very negative sign, especially if it's your first interaction with this person.
However, I've had women fold their arms around me if I'm not paying them enough attention or if they're in a mood with me over something else. It can mean they're sulking in other words.

My father used to always cross his arms and I guess that's where I got the idea of it being comfortable.
I tried offsetting this by holding my hands at my waist (you know, the "domination" display where there's almost a 90 degree angle in your arm and your elbows point out) but this probably makes it look like you either have some superiority complex/are impatient so I'm not sure if this is a good idea either.
I wish I had the patience to stand still with my arms down by my sides..but it just gets f*ckin annoying after a while you know? Then I start doing stupid sh!t like putting my hands in my pockets which probably looks even worse.
I have started making an effort to cross my arms less often but it still comes pretty natural.
