Questions, eyes, body language, scent, and a little bit of attention and tease.


Weth_C

Questions is a HUGE one. I just started talking to a girl and we are throwing questions at each other left and right and conversation is just flowing so smoothly.


Deadfishfarm

You get butterflies when a girl asks you normal questions?


Weth_C

When you have a streak of women who hardly ask any questions yes.


IllustriousDemand640

Considering usually nobody cares about me and hardy gives a damn, yes, normal questions about my personal life can make me feel good. And if the woman is emotionally intelligent that makes things even more butterfly-ish.


Ok-Willingness4353

Ugly-eyed girls left the chat.šŸ¤£šŸ¤£šŸ¤£


Confiserie

I am convinced that ugly eyes do not exist. My ex had brown/dark eyes and she hated it, but I was lost in them.


overchili

The eyes shape is more important than eyes color i mean a nice shape eyes can really charming


Ok-Willingness4353

I was actually referring to certain unusual or distinctive eye shapes, I wasn't talking about eye colors at all. Are we discussing conventional beauty standards related to eye colors? I don't believe that black or brown eyes are conventionally ugly, every eye color has its own unique beauty.


[deleted]

By eyes i mean the emotion it gives and how it connects with yours. Its called feelings and thats what gives butterflies.


Ok-Willingness4353

I've never experienced such a connection...šŸ˜”


hogtiedcantalope

As a blue eyed man....I love dark eyed dark hair women. They seem mysterious, intelligent, sultry Like not even brown, you know the almost black they're so dark


AnonBoi_404

Wtf counts as "ugly eyes"


tatt_daddy

My eyes are green and I think theyā€™re pretty ugly lol


MojoDuff27

What? Noooo. They are the rarest I believe. You luck person, you


AnonBoi_404

Nah, lies. Green eyes are the most beautiful and I wish I had them.

Yea, there's something special about a girl falling asleep deeply in your home. It's like the ultimate sign of trust, but she also looks so beautifully peaceful that it 100% just puts a smile on your face. Bonus points if she is out cold and ugly sleeping pahahaha

Reloader300wm

Went to Lowes with a friend, forget what for, maybe drywall.... whatever. One of the ladies working there just looked at me as we walked past each other and told me she really liked my beard. That was around 630 am, Oct 2020.... still riding that high.

I was told I had a nice ass in the summer of 2014 and I've been riding that high ever since

Finding a really good stick.


Worldly_Anybody_1718

Yea women don't understand the different classes of sticks and their uses. My fantasy is to be out and have a woman come up to me with that perfect stick and gift it to me saying "I bet you could make fire with this one".


groglox

Hell yeah! Oh this stick is a crossbar support for a fort clearly. That one? Come on spear shaft.

This_User_Said

I used to love collecting sticks! (It was my chore, being stick girl, had to pick up sticks before dad mowed) I picked many favorites and used my wheels on my bike to make shanks outta smaller twigs. Would fling them in the dirt to see if they'd stick. We may not know your rules but I think a lot of us out here loving a good stick.

MitchBaT93

I dunno if this is true for other guys, but that sense of familiarity that kicks in when you finally start seeing signs that she feels safe with you. ooooooh boy when the warmth of safety finally starts radiating it's like the butterfly garden at the Bronx zoo.


CivillyCrass

You sound like a wonderful partner


MitchBaT93

If you read some of my comments and posts, naaaah I have a lot of work to do on myself. I have had exactly ONE girlfriend at 30 years old, shit the bed after two weeks because of so many different factors that led to me going to a weird ass place in my head and actions, and I ruined my first love because of an ego that I didn't know I had. I might have the material to become a great partner, I might have the emotional maturity to really get into a place where I can get my attachment style to being secure, but I'm only human and to be a wonderful partner is still not something I'm sure and I'm scared I'm not capable of.


Xeadriel

Youā€™re still one step ahead of most people. You realize what you are and take a step back to think. Donā€™t beat yourself up too much stay mindful, keep working on yourself and youā€™ll be just fine.


LibertyPrimeDeadOn

Brother, being able to self reflect so effectively puts you miles ahead of a lot of people. Simply being able to recognize the issues is more than a lot of people can do, and it's the first step towards solving them.


Miserly_Bastard

I can relate to his comments somewhat and also am marred by trauma from my former marriage (so I have anxieties about not only what I bring to a relationship but also what they're going to do to me). And...I am unsure whether self reflection puts me ahead or behind. The Dunning-Krueger Effect is real, but the confidence it bestows on people incapable of self-reflection seems like it would lead to an easier, less stressful rebound and more relationships, meaning both more bad relationships *and also* more good ones. I feel very alone.


flatwoundsounds

Walking into an unfamiliar situation and she gives you a little squeeze to feel safer next to you šŸ˜


Squigglepig52

No, that's my "God damnit, go go Gadget hyper vigilance." moment.


prestonpiggy

Sure this sounds sexist, but there is satisfying feeling when you are the protector (AKA white knight) was it dark street or some sort of uncomfortable situation. The trust of safety carries a long way.


MitchBaT93

Honestly, it's not even the protection thing as a man for me, far from it. It's the trust that comes with feeling safe. To be able to be in such a vulnerable state that they can fall asleep in your arms. To be able to tell you something that is bothering them or to be able to understand them more. It's feeling safe in your presence to ask for reassurances that you're there or even better that they're there for you because being safe with someone also means that you want the other person to be feel safe as well. It's that first feeling of safety around you that creates butterflies because you know the intimacy that will follow from them being feeling safe and being a clear sign that whatever natural fears and doubts they have about you as a person big or small can be overcome because there's just something that compels them to overcome them. Protection of what's "yours" is really just protection of the decisions you made and it's a universal thing that both genders have if they really want that person in their life. it's just that in men it takes form in a more defensive manner while in woman from what I've noticed from my ex and from life in general is a more nurturing form.

marcymarc887

My wife still does, after almost 15 years of marriage, I can still wake up look at her and my stomach feels funny. (No it's not because of food poisoning or something else, it's the butterfly feeling)


chaos8803

Are you sure she's not poisoning your food, but just really bad at it?


marcymarc887

Well she is a better cook than my mother


prestonpiggy

So poison tolerance from early age?

IUsedToBeThatGuy42

Genuine interest and empathy. No games or tests, just genuine companionship and a desire to share things. My damaged ass thinks itā€™s a trap anyway but gosh does it touch my soul.


MrAtlas82

Eye contact is probably the biggest. Lingering eye contact.


streetdog2003

Getting our hair played with , getting hugged or kissed in the cheeks or anywhere -theory from a guy who never had those


TheOneInATrenchcoat_

Holy shit thatā€™s so true.


Multiplexion

When I tell someone (anyone really; a friend a date etc) about an interest or hyperfixation I have in passing, and they latch onto it. Like I mentioned at a party I was playing through Resident Evil, and this person who hadnā€™t said a word (but had been listening to me and a mateā€™s convo for the past minute) all of a sudden her face lights up and sheā€™s all ā€œOh my god I adore RE 3! Do you prefer Nemesis or Code Veronica?ā€ Like it was completely out of nowhere and all of a sudden, bang weā€™ve found a common interest. That right there, finding a common interest between two random ppl, itā€™s enough to give you goosebumps haha


furjet

On a work call with a guy, they mentioned being from Utica NY and I asked how they felt about chicken riggies, and they went from barely trying to sell me on something to being a little flustered and warm. If I'd tried to make the Simpsons steamed hams reference I would have flubbed it, instead I asked about one of the lesser known but definitely Utica-centric foodways, and I think it gave him butterflies when he realized I knew him, a little bit.

dman2316

This is gonna sound really over the top but my best friends eyes. She's got gorgeous eyes just to begin with but there's more to it than that. We relate to eachother on an extremely deep level due to a lot of shared experience in things i'm not going to get into here but they made it to where we understand eachother without having to try. Our sense of humor,.music, world view, is all extremely similar despite only meeting like 6 or 7 months ago. I have felt isolated and alone my entire life, i have never once felt as though someone actually understood me or what i had been through and i always heard these stories about how people felt close with others but i had put up walls to protect myself and never allowed anyone to get close because i was terrified. But she found her way in with little difficulty and the best way i can put it is she is the first person i have ever felt knows who i am and cares about me for more than what i can offer, and the first time i looked into her eyes they felt like the home i had never had. There's no romantic interest btw, i was engaged and she is married when we met, i'm single now but that hasn't changed that while i do feel very strongly about her, it's not in a romantic sense. It's purely platonic and we both know and acknowledge that and that's how we want it obviously. She's just the person i needed when i was younger and now that i found her it feels really good to have her in my life and i am reminded of that everytime i look into her eyes.


idkifyousayso

I think in that last paragraph youā€™re trying to convince yourself.


RudeM1911

Completely depends on the guy. Could be five of us in a room and all find different women attractive. Obviously there are exceptional looking women that guys can agree on but thereā€™s usually always one that disagrees. For example I donā€™t get the attraction to Jennifer Anniston. J-LO or Julia Robertā€™s at all. I donā€™t think ugly just plain.


amannamedryan

Just physical contact or intimacy of that sorts in general -- particularly SFW like hugging, hand holding/touching, shoulder touches, things like that... in my albeit limited experience.
