In a restaurant, across the table, when a woman’s legs are swung to the side, she’s just not engaged by the conversation or the guy. – from a waitress

 When a man puts his arm around his date but looks out the window instead of at her, there must be something wrong. Either they’re lost or they’ve “lost it.” True lovebirds always peek at each other. – from a cab driver
