This does a good job enumerating how to tell if someone consents to be chatted with. Excellent list of the nonverbal cues. My dance teacher taught a similar short lesson on how to ask someone to dance, nonverbally, that uses some of the same cues: gentle eye contact, making sure the possible partner doesn't feel trapped or pressured, asking rather than insisting or demanding. Makes sense, Partner dance is another sort of conversation, after all.
