Sometimes you get lucky and meet a guy that you have instant fireworks with. It’s rare but it happens. How can you spot this kind of chemistry when you experience it? It’s pretty obvious actually.
- Your heart stops when you see him. Even if you can only get a quick glimpse of him, it’s enough to make your heart stop. You typically go out of your way to try and bump into him even if it’s only for a few minutes. If there’s a social event he’s going to, you’ll 100% be there if it means you’ll have an opportunity to see him or talk to him. To put it simply, you’re a woman on a mission.
- When you make eye contact, it feels like you’re on fire. There’s so much heat between you guys, it kind of makes the sun jealous. I mean, you only have to make eye contact for a few seconds to feel like he’s burning a hole through your soul. That said, it doesn’t hurt—in fact, it’s quite the opposite. The feeling’s compulsive and you’d do almost anything to avoid looking away.
- You’re super nervous when you talk to him. You might have only exchanged a few words with him thus far, but every one you utter comes out jumbled or back-to-front. Butterflies aren’t just fluttering around in your stomach, they’re full-on jumping—and you can’t stop your voice from wavering or your hands from shaking when you try to speak to him. In fact, whatever comes out of your mouth often doesn’t make sense as a result.
- He seems to feel the same nerves. That said, he also seems nervous when he speaks to you. Whether he’s 26 or 56, he’s definitely messing up his words just as much as you are because he can also feel the raging heat between you both. It feels invigorating just to speak to him, never mind anything else.
- You’re constantly picturing what it would be like to sleep with him. I mean, if talking to him and being around him makes you feel this alive, what on earth would it be like to kiss him, touch him, or even have sex with him? You can’t help but picture it on the daily. Even if he grazes your arm accidentally, it feels like someone’s just given you an electric shock that’s more pleasurable than painful. You have no doubt in your mind that the sex would be something out of this world. Consequently, you find yourself in constant streams of daydreams.
- There’s an instant click. You guys seem to have an immediate connection and it’s blatantly obvious to everyone around you—perhaps other people have even commented on it. Well, what can you say? You just seem to gel when you’re chatting despite the nerves and it feels good that he’s just as interested in you as you are in him.
- He’s all you think about. You’re so consumed being this other human being that you might even be struggling to concentrate on work or school (delete as applicable), even if you’re usually conscientious. Not cool but totally out of your control.
- Other guys don’t even exist. There’s clearly only one guy you’re interested in and you’d do practically anything to continue your romantic journey with him. It’s almost like nothing else matters at this stage—you’re drawn to him like a moth to a flame and you need your next fix.
- You feel like a teenager again. No matter how old you are, you feel the same urge as you once did with your first crush or love. The intoxicating feeling of lust is overwhelming yet compelling. Every time you see him again, it’s like getting a hit of your own personal drug and your addiction just seems to be getting out of control.
- You act out of character. Maybe you’re usually so confident and you’ve never felt so shy talking to someone, or perhaps you’re super independent but you can’t help stalking his social media every 30 minutes. Either way, you’re behaving in a way that’s not usually considered “you” because of the severity of your feelings. However, you just can’t help yourself—there’s an unexplainable bond with this guy and you won’t be able to rest until it’s been explored further.
