Closed body language may indicate discomfort or defensiveness from "summary" of Linguagem Corporal by Igor Dias

When someone crosses their arms, avoids eye contact, or turns their body away from you during a conversation, they may be feeling uncomfortable or defensive. These actions, known as closed body language, can indicate that a person is not open to communication or is trying to protect themselves in some way. Closed body language is often a subconscious response to feeling threatened or vulnerable. It can be a way for someone to create a physical barrier between themselves and the person or situation that is causing them discomfort. By closing off their body, they are signaling that they are not receptive to further interaction and may be in a defensive mode. In some cases, closed body language may also indicate that a person is feeling anxious, insecure, or unsure of themselves. By adopting a closed posture, they may be trying to shield themselves from perceived threats or criticisms. This defensive stance can be a way for them to protect their emotions and maintain a sense of control in a challenging situation. It is important to pay attention to these nonverbal cues in order to better understand the feelings and intentions of others. By recognizing when someone is displaying closed body language, you can adjust your own behavior to make them feel more comfortable and at ease. This can help to foster better communication and build stronger relationships with those around you.
