5. Legs tell you a lot about the person you're speaking with, even when you have just met them.
It's quite difficult to get your legs to do exactly what you want them to do, so they say a lot about a person's innermost feelings, even when they are trying very hard to hide them. Leg swinging and rolling of the foot at the ankle, or especially foot tapping, shows that a person is feeling irritated or impatient. The faster the movement, the worse their mood!
6. You will probably be able to sense right away if someone is deliberately angling their body away from you, even if you don't consciously process that thought.
People tend to sit angled towards and even leaning towards, people they like.
This may not happen when you first meet someone, as they may wait a little while to gauge what you are like, but if they start to position themselves in your direction and lean in closer to you, then the chances are that they are beginning to like you.
So, even if you don't know a person well, you can read their body language and adapt your communication with them accordingly.
