Look Away = I am uncomfortable with the situation. I can’t look at you because you have more power. (Looking away and also looking down at the same time is also a sure sign of dominance.) Step Back = I am afraid of you, the situation, or both. (Remember, there is an exception to this rule)

  11. Common Body Language Mistakes • Touch your Mouth = I do not approve of you and I am afraid to speak openly. I am not sure of myself. • Touch your Nose = I am nervous about this confrontation. I am not sure what is going to happen. • Touch your Throat = I am frightened by you and the situation I am in. • Clench Fists = I am very angry at you and want to punish you for placing me in this situation. I am more powerful than you. I am in control. • Cross Arms = I am defensive. I have made up my mind. I resist any attempt by you to communicate with me.
