10 Things Men Do That Give Women Butterflies (And Make Our Hearts Skip A Beat)!

TBH, when it comes to flirting, it feels like most men have left their flirting A-game in their bachelor’s den. No wonder most of us crave that old-school flirting, the thrill of the chase, the mystery of romance, the sizzling tension of who’s going to make the first move. We all look forward to that wooing phase when you’re spending your days listening to the most romantic music while getting ready for work. As irritating as it is, wondering if he likes you or if he’s being friendly is the most chaotic but fun part of having a crush, more so when he does one little thing that makes your heart skip a beat and gives you butterflies.

I know, I know most of y’all are probably thinking – do such men exist? As someone who has been on over 15 dates with celebrities in 2024 (yep, that many dates), ISTG such men do exist even though they’re a rare breed nearing extinction. So, boys, in case you’re lost and wondering how to give her butterflies, allow me to give you some amazing ideas.

10 Things Men Do That Give Women Butterflies!

1. You know that moment when he smiles at you and you know it’s only for you, his special smile. ISTG, it totally makes my heart flutter and I promise, it works on every single girl. Men should really smile more often!

2. When he tells you things he doesn’t need to but because he wants to. How is a girl supposed to ignore that? He’s giving you all that extra information to make you feel special and you totally do, hai na?

3. Is it just me or do men have this twinkle in their eyes when they look up at a woman they like? And that sparkle in their eyes just makes our insides melt. How are we to make eye contact with this person who carries so much passion in his eyes (voh bhi from across the room)? So hot!

4. Nothing makes our hearts skip a beat like when a man texts us from across the room. More so when he gives us a compliment, it makes the butterflies in our bellies go crazy!

5. When your crush protects you by following the sidewalk rule, there’s no turning back from that. It’s essential when he walks closer to the streets while moving you on the inside to keep you safe.

6. Women are easy to understand, we’re simple beings. A man can give us butterflies by sharing the little things he observed about us. Tell me you noticed when I was not feeling good (even though I tried to hide it) and my heart would skip a beat. That just tells us that you see us, even when we think you’re not noticing. A man who remembers what we said to him in the passing can make us ladies feel on top of the world. And if he acts on it too – oh my my, he’s got us falling hard!

7. You know that moment when you just want your crush to hold your hand and your hands brush but he makes no move to hold your hand? Well, that’s just the moment that makes the butterflies in our bellies flutter like crazies.

8. Your crush may be loud but that moment when you’re alone and he lowers his voice to just one pitch higher than a whisper, forcing you to slightly lean into him and it just makes your insides melt.

9. You’re in luck if your crush is your friend because that moment when you hug them and they just take a deep breath in a way to take in your scent is the highlight of your day. A little physical touch goes a long way in uplifting your mood.

10. Communication is hot and so is a man who makes an effort to communicate instead of just watching our stories. There’s something special about men who tell us that they’re going to be unavailable or just text to drop hints that they are thinking about us. Wanna give a woman butterflies? Just communicate and you’ve got her attention and how.

To all of you who have a hot and happening crush, Valentine’s Day aa raha hai. So, you might want to make the move instead of sitting back and waiting for things to happen!
