It's instinct, and everyone does it. In fact there's a whole art/science to it called NLP. The idea is that we reflect each other's body language to establish trust and rapport in the conversation. You can also use it to alter people's moods to some extent. For example, if you see someone slouching you can sit next to them and slouch too. And they'll unconsciously think that you are like them. (People like people they perceive to be like them.) Then, you can slowly start sitting up and talk to them, and their mood and body language will change to reflect yours automatically. It's supposed to be a very powerful set of techniques (because most people don't do it on purpose), but I've only toyed with the idea. You can use the search engine for more information about NLP, and there are lots of books on Amazon.com about it. Good luck!

I'm into body language and it means that you want to seem agreeable with that person or you want to gain their approval, so I'm told.

What type of girls do you go out with??? You won't catch me scratching my balls, sitting with my legs open or putting my hands down my Kecks.
