You know that feeling when you get the butterflies?
In other words, you get so nervous your body breaks?
Boys, what do girls do that gives you butterflies?

So what body-breaking bits and bobs can girls do to guys in the most pleasant way?
Let’s see what the boys of Reddit had to say.
1. Honesty.
Making their interest abundantly clear without any games; a little nervous on a date; offering to pay for anything.
If in a relationship, random gestures that girls would find sweet would do the same for most guys (i.e., surprise little gifts etc.)

2. Compliments.
Give me compliments.
It doesn’t happen a whole lot, but if a girl says I got cute eyes or just am cute then that gives me a nice tingly feeling
– Lightmareman
3. Laughter.
Laughing with you, touching, looking into your eyes.
I think the most anxious I ever felt was when a long-time crush looked straight into my eyes after a hug, and it told me everything she was feeling.
Kissed her for the first time right then and there.
And now we’ve been dating 5 years.
– Meat_Flapz
4. Looks.
Prolonged eye contact for no f*cking reason.
– monibhai
5. Sweaters.
When they wear those sweaters that a little too big for them and one shoulder peeks through the neck.

6. Teasing.
When they tease you in just the right way
– Josephmurrell
7. Growing.
Usually they buy me caterpillars and then I bring them home.
Then they grow
– himmyyyyy
8. Attention.
Attention.
Any attention at all.
– d_litt1
9. Smiles.
Besides flirting, anyone I am attracted to smiling because of something I said gives me butterflies.
– damboy99
10. Song.
Singing.
Doesn’t have to be good or anything. Just Idgaf singing.
So full of life, I love that sh*t man.
– [deleted user]
11. Love languages.
Physical touch. Holding hands, arm, hug, leaning against me.
Just one of my love languages.
– EducatedHoustonian
12. Touch.
I’m usually fine with talking to girls but if a girl I find somewhat mildly attractive, touches me anywhere below the neck, I will collapse in approximately 3 minutes
– Driplzy
13. Interest.
When she genuinely shows interest in me.
And I don’t need to “run after her, because I am the man”
– Flayff
14. Pics.
When she sends a pic for no reason.
– KingwoodSloth
15. Leans.
When she leaned to kiss me on our first date.
Took me a while to figure out how to speak English again.
– XxuruzxX
16. Say my name.
Saying my name in casual conversation, followed by a smile.
It just feels so personal and makes me blush a little.
– cycle2
17. Snuggle up.
More of a thing when you’re in a relationship, but when they snuggle up with a blanket and you can only really see their head, that sh*t is ridiculous
– -3than
18. The neck.
When I’m sat down and a girl runs her hand across my neck when she leaves.
– SolomonKhalifa
19. The hair.
If I’m seeing a girl and she runs her hand through my hair I become powerless
– Leptoxulon
20. The hairSTYLE.
That hairstyle where they tie front parts back leaving two stringy bits in front of their face and leave the back down
– David_13710
21. Smiles.
When she smiles.
She doesn’t have it in her to smile often, but when she does it’s just the most beautiful thing I’ve seen.
I’ll strive, I’ll do anything I can to get her to smile. Gives me butterflies every single time
– mfreels08
22. Attention.
When they put their arm around me or even talk to me
– inspiringnoone27
23. Lean on me.
Leaning against me, absolutely one of my favorite feelings.
– Laiskis100
24. The hugs.
When you’re sat down and she comes and gives you a hug from behind and rests her chin on your trap muscle, and you can feel her hair on your neck and shoulders, and the warmth of her skin, and just her general tenderness
– FaceFirst23
25. The palm.
My gf always takes my hand and runs her finger through my palm (sort of In The Nightgarden style lmao) and IT KILLS ME – and tickles a bit too
– DiscountDjura
26. Spoonin’.
Let me be little spoon..
– TNH_Nightingale

When she puts the stray hair strands behind her ears, subtle lip bites, giggles.

28. The lap.
I love it when I’m sitting on the couch and she sits in my lap or leans against me and gives me a really long tight hug.
It melts me.

One time this girl planted flowers in my backyard and suddenly I had tons of butterflies.
