    Hmmm do you mean around them in general or during sexytime?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,000 ✭✭✭spinandscribble


    i love that feeling where your hearts racing and you are like "whats happening?" and then you realise you fancy them :D

    Interested in how they think, their hopes their opinions, want to be around them more, horny, excited by their presence and a little down at their absence. I've never had the spark, hit by a ton of bricks thing really. Instant sexual attraction yes, but if they were incompatible that died quick, but anything more took time and built up.

    Rejoice in the awareness of feeling stupid, for that’s how you end up learning new things. If you’re not aware you’re stupid, you probably are.

    Inferior of course!

    Really?. Never had that. I knew I fancied them, but the thought came before the heart racing, so I already knew I fancied them. I've never been even close to being caught unawares. People are different that's for sure.:D

    Both, all views and expierences welcome.
    I'm also interested in often people get that feeling.


  • Subscribers Posts: 19,425 ✭✭✭✭Oryx


    Quite often tongue tied, clumsy and utterly stupid. So if I meet ya and I stammer and trip up, youre game on :D

    Generally if I see someone I fancy.. the feelings are pretty base. Horniness. Otherwise, what Wibbs said.

    well i'm aware when someones attractive but theres a difference between that and fancying them. its usually when i'm not suppose to be looking around, either self imposed singledom or in a relationship. so then i avoid them like the plague if i'm with someone or go after them if i'm single.

    Gotcha. What I meant was I've never been surprised if you know what I mean. I've never known someone thought she was attractive, but then one day gone Wow:eek: I fancy her.

    As for feelings in sexytime; I would say I want to possess them completely, be part of them, damn near mentally liquidise them and drink them in. Very animalistic for me anyway. Mouth goes dry and then the other way, every part of my body wants to touch every part of theirs. Now love type sexy time would be that and so much more, trust, intimacy and losing myself with them.

    Have never had that instant eyes meet across a bar falling in love kind of thing.

    Normally when I first meet someone I don't feel anything like that, then after about an hour or two of chatting to them something clicks in me and I suddenly realise "oh shit, I've got a crush", this moment of clarity usually occurs after the person in question says something that makes me laugh my ass off, sense of humour seems to be the clincher for me

    i dunno, i guess i'm weird lol. my mind and heart are a second behind eachother :P
    i guess theres been times where i've gone "wow" because i see a new side to them thats made me reevaluate them.

    Definitely.

    When I'm attracted to someone, my stomach tingles just from standing beside them, from catching their eye. I tend to blush and babble.

    When I really desire someone, the feeling can be overpowering- I want to consume them entirely, come close to losing control. It can be almost aggressive... mmm...

    Phew... (calms self down)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,000 ✭✭✭spinandscribble


    haha this threads put me in a good mood. reminds me of how great it is to properly fancy someone, can't wait for my next crush. :D

    Has happened me before, its pretty cool. How I react to fancying someone depends on who they are a lot of the time, if they were someone with some authority I tend to go inside myself, if its like a woman I met in a bar a while ago*, then I can't seem to break eye contact with them, and a little bit of me wants to go howl at the moon or something.








    *nothing happened.

    This exactly. I never had the spark thing, either.

    lust - if I am near them I just want to grab them and kiss them and do more...
    true love - they make me smile no matter how bad my day is when I see them and I want to hug them and have sex with them...bit akward when we are in work but we hold out until we get home!

    The first time I saw my husband was two years before we really talked but the big thing was that I remembered seeing him for the first time, it is like it was in slow motion, I was instantly attracted to him and remember saying to my mum that night that I had seen a very attractive man. It is the only time that has happened to me. He remembers me too :)

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,016 ✭✭✭Blush_01


    To be honest, me blushing is nothing unusual. I'm usually fairly sure I like someone if I'm completely paranoid that they think I'm staring at them. Pathetic!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 23,216 ✭✭✭✭monkeyfudge

    In the past I've been capable of triggering rashes... that's sort of like a blush..

    Ive never been shy, so the looking away and heart beating in the chest never happened- mores the pity. Reason being, if I met a guy who was a bit shy it went either one of two ways. Happy I was chatty as it helped put him at ease, or felt threatened.

    What I do feel though, is confident because Im chatty, and ravenously horny. Thats genuinely it.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,121 ✭✭✭Censorsh!t


    It took one night of camping at Rock Werchter to fall for my boyfriend. He had been left behind by his friends so hung around with my friends as he knew them too. And by the end of the night...i had that feeling where you cant stop thinking about them, you feel nervous, you try tell yourself "dont fall for them because youll get hurt".
    You're so excited and nervous when you talk to them. You feel sick with butterflies when you're going to meet up with them. You feel depressed and stupid when you get the feeling they dont like you.

    God damm it :p


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,440 ✭✭✭GirlInterrupted


    Warm and tingly at the initial attraction, and later on it would be longing, with a desire to be connected in every way with the other. Subsumed, lost, and drowning in each other in an intimate way. Hard to explain really.

    so true...

    For me, when the eyes meet, sometimes I just want to dissolve in that gaze and stay there. also get the butterfly feeling too. and moodiness.

    The feeling you get when you know you've met someone you really fancy is the best feeling in the world!

    Twice in my life I have kissed a guy and upon kissing them it was almost electric. The butterflies in your stomach just explode and you get this wonderful tingly feeling around them all the time.
    The best is when Its reciprocated and you both have the tingly feeling in your stomach when your around each other.

    Also when they touch you, even just an inncoent brush of the hand when your waiting in the line for cinema tickets or something, the hairs on the back of your neck stand up and you want them to touch you again and again.

    ^Can totally agree with everything you described there. I still get butterflies after a year. She does too.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 16,165 ✭✭✭✭brianthebard


    I had that electric kiss before too! mindblowing. *sighs*


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 43,045 ✭✭✭✭Nevyn


    Yes there is a list of reactions and behaviours, no I am not sharing.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 43,311 ✭✭✭✭K-9


    Yep, the butterfly feeling and the anticipation for me. It really is lust though!

    I'd say that depends on the type of attraction.

    Indeed, but that's my initial type.

    After time, it's slightly more complicated! In a long term relationship, their weaknesses can be just as attractive.
