If a guy kissed the top of your head, this post will show you likely reasons why and what would make each of them more likely.

So, what does it mean when a guy kisses the top of your head? Likely reasons why a guy would kiss the top of your head are that he is attracted to you, he considers you a friend or that he thought you were feeling sad.

There are actually a number of possible reasons why a guy would kiss the top of your head. However, there are some things you can consider to help figure out the main cause.

What does it mean when a guy kisses top of your head?

Below are likely causes and what would make each of them more likely.

He likes you

If you are the only person that he kissed on the top of the head, he changes his body language when you are around and he interacts with you differently compared to other people, it would be likely that he did it because he is attracted to you.

When a guy is attracted to a girl he will often find excuses to touch her so if he kissed you on the head while making an excuse to do so then it would also be likely that he did it due to being attracted to you.

If he did do it because he is attracted to you then it would be likely that he would show other signs of attraction in his body language and behavior.

These signs can include:

• Mirroring your body language
• Asking you more questions than he does to other people when you’re in a group together
• Standing in your personal space when talking to you
• Getting agitated when you’re talking to other men
• Staring at you then quickly looking away when you notice
• Uncrossing his arms and legs when he first sees you
• Sitting upright when he first sees you
• Adjusting his clothing or hair when he first sees you
• Pointing his feet at you
• Talking with a deeper voice when you’re around
• Becoming defensive when other men your age are around
• Asking your friends about you
• Blinking more frequently
• His pupils become more dilated when he is with you

He considers you as a friend

Sometimes, people will kiss their friends on the forehead and it could be why he did it to you. This would be more likely if he also does it to other people a lot and if he shows the same body language around them as he does around you.

He wants to be more than just friends

If he has been your friend for a while then the reason that he kissed you on the forehead is likely to be a sign that he wants to be more than just friends with you.

If that is why he kissed your forehead, it would be likely that he would be showing signs of attraction around you that you’re not picking up on.

He would be especially likely to get agitated when you talk to other men, make plans based around your schedule and that he would get defensive or jealous when other men are around.

He thought you were feeling sad

If you were talking to him about something that made you sad and you were showing signs of being sad such as watery eyes, sniffing or taking deeper breaths, he might have done it to reassure you.

If that is why he did it then it would be likely that he would only have done it then and not at other times as well.

Consider what your relationship with him is like

The type of relationship that you have with him could have an impact on why he kissed your forehead.

If he is a friend, it would make it more likely that he either did it to reassure you or due to being attracted to you. It would be helpful to consider the context of how he did it, if you were sad at the time and the type of behavior and body language that he was showing to figure out exactly why.

If it was a guy that you were meeting for the first time then it would be more likely that he was showing attraction. It could also have been a sign of dominant behavior.

Consider the way he reacts to seeing you

The way that he reacts when he initially sees you will also likely give you a number of clues about the way that he feels about you.

If he points his feet at you, raises his eyebrows and smiles, watches you as you enter, positions himself to be near you, sits or stands more upright, adjusts his hair or clothing and his pupils become more dilated then it would be likely that he is attracted to you.

Think about how he interacts with other people

Comparing the way that he behaves around other people with the way that he behaves around you will also help you in figuring out the way that he feels about you.

If he tends to kiss other woman friends of his on the forehead and he shows the same behavior and body language around you, it would be more likely that he has an overly flirtatious personality. However, it could still be the case that he is attracted to you but he would be more likely to show more subtle signs of it if he does such as pupil dilation and pointing the feet at you.

Whereas, if he only does it with you and he changes his body language around you then it would make it more likely that he is attracted to you assuming that he changes it in a way that signals attraction.

Look for multiple clues in his body language

When you’re considering the body language that he shows around you make sure to consider multiple body language signals.

There are often many reasons why a person will show a single body language signal. This makes it unreliable to draw a conclusion about a guy’s feelings towards you based on a single body language signal.

However, if he shows multiple different signs of attraction in his body language then it would be much more likely that he really is attracted to you.

Consider when and where he did it

The timing and location of when he kissed your forehead would also be a useful thing to consider.

If he kissed you on the forehead while you were both alone together then it would be more likely that he was showing attraction to you or that he was trying to reassure you.

If he did it when other people were present then it could be that he was being polite, showing attraction or being dominant. It would depend on the context of how he did it to figure out the exact reason.
