6 Signs of Almost Palpable Sexual Tension

 

Have you met someone and felt like you needed to fan yourself by the end of the conversation? Did the air almost sizzle between you on the date? But by the time you got home, you were convincing yourself that it was just the approaching summer, and you were seeing something that wasn’t there? First, let us stop you right there: don’t overthink it! Now, let us reassure you that you weren’t imagining the sexual tension. Yes, even the blind could see there was something between you. The following 6 signs unmistakably prove that there is indeed a spark between you two.


Read The Body Language

Sometimes the smallest signs are enough to sense mutual sexual tension – such as touches. A gentle brush on the arm. Leaning in closer during conversation. These body language signals all indicate that there’s something between you. If you can delve deeper, try to assess how alive and in tune with your body you feel around them.

playful teasing
Adrenaline Rushes

There are invisible signs as well. Like the rush of adrenaline: your heart beats faster, and your blood pressure rises. Yes, this response is often also seen in anxiety, which is why sexual tension is often confused with dislike (hello, enemies-to-lovers!). This is also why you might feel nervous when interacting with someone you are very attracted to.

Playful Teasing

No, we’re not saying you should accept being mistreated because it’s done out of "love." That’s not a thing. But playful teasing and banter are absolutely acceptable. In fact, it’s a sure sign of mutual attraction.

You Are the Center of Attention

Can’t focus on anything else but you? Do you often and deeply look into each other’s eyes? It’s a definite sign of mutual sexual tension since eye contact requires both parties. Eye gazing functions like mini-dates where no one else is allowed and you don’t want to leave.

Everyone Can See It

If others can almost touch the sexual tension between you, or at least notice that something is going on, the situation is clear. So, if your friend pulls you aside after such an interaction and asks, “What was that?!”, it’s pretty likely that the mutual attraction wasn’t just in your imagination.

Instead of Foreplay

Sexual tension is essentially the lack of immediate gratification. While this might sound very frustrating (and it’s no better to experience), it helps you to be more present in your body. Once you’re in tune with your body and emotions, every impulse you experience can be heightened. Plus – since it’s not goal-oriented – it provides an opportunity for exploration. This is why you might feel sexual tension as foreplay: the whole thing is erotic.

  According to a study, people greatly misestimate how often their friends' relationships involve sex each month . A lot of people are driven by curiosity about others' private lives. While many may not want to delve into the lives of complete strangers, they often want to peek into their friends' lives to see how they differ, what they do differently, and what they have more or less of. When people don’t receive specific information, they tend to make assumptions about more intimate details, such as how often their friends have sex. It turns out that almost everyone guesses wrong about the frequency of their friends' intimate moments. Do Your Friends Really Have Less Sex?
