Physical intimacy is important in a relationship. It’s a unique way to communicate appreciation and feelings while sharing a true moment of connection. Touch is a love language in its own right that we express through kisses, caresses, and, of course, making love. Moreover, making love has a direct impact on our happiness hormones (oxytocin, endorphins, serotonin, dopamine… better than a drug). It genuinely gives us a shared sense of well-being (when everything goes well in bed). However, initiating this moment is not always easy, and you might need some clues to figure out when your partner wants to make love. In this article, I’ll give you some hints 😉.
1. His eyes linger on your entire body
A lot can be communicated through a man’s gaze; you can even imagine his gaze as being as tangible as a hand, observing what it caresses. Normally, when we talk to someone, we focus on their eyes and face. A man who wants to make love to you won’t stop there. He’ll let his gaze wander over the parts of your body he finds most attractive. His attention will settle on your chest, neck, hands, etc., and you’ll notice him doing it!
2. He flirts more
When your man wants to make love, he’s more inclined to flirt with you verbally, adding a slightly more erotic twist to the conversation. Early in a relationship, flirting is common and doesn’t always mean you’re ready to jump into bed! But when he desires you, the direction of his flirting will reveal his intentions. For example, if you tell him you’re going to take a shower, he might joke about joining you. The same goes for bedtime. Overall, his flirting will be more suggestive.
3. He comments on what you’re wearing
As mentioned earlier, a man who wants to make love to you will stare intently. His gaze will be drawn to your body. Also, though this point alone might not be enough, a man who wants to make love will find you particularly attractive. To express this, he might tell you that your outfit looks great, compliments how it suits you, asks if those jeans are new, or notices if you’ve done something different with your hair.
4. His face gives it away
A man’s gaze isn’t the only thing that changes when he wants to make love to you. Other parts of his face also come into play, starting with his mouth. You might notice him licking his lips, biting them, or mimicking what you do with yours! Not only does his breathing change without him realizing it—making his mouth drier—but he also desires you, which can make him “lick his chops.” Additionally, if his desire is strong, his nostrils might flare, and you might catch him sniffing you!
5. His touch changes
Whether your man is naturally tactile or not, if he wants to make love to you, his body language will shift. A man who wants to make love desires you. Naturally, we like to touch what we desire. You’ll notice him getting closer, initiating contact, kissing your neck, caressing you longer, and moving more slowly. He’ll seek contact with your skin. You might even see him getting excited before you’re at the same level of desire as him!
6. His voice changes
Beyond flirting with you, he might seem less focused on the conversation. He’ll appear distracted or awkward. Additionally, his voice will become softer, smoother, and deeper. It’s undeniable: a man’s voice becomes warmer and lower when he’s making love to you—not the same voice he uses to order a pizza. When he flirts, he’ll bring out his inner Barry White.
With these hints, you might already be sure of his reciprocal desire to make love. And that’s great. But do you want to Become THE Woman? Not just the one with whom it’s “nice” or “pleasant” in bed, but the one he’ll remember forever because of the sexual connection and excitement he won’t experience with anyone else?
Still have doubts about his intentions and receptiveness? Here are more clues to detect when your partner wants to make love.
7. He’s restless
A man who wants to make love to you but isn’t entirely comfortable with it might seem a bit restless. He’ll change places and seem scattered. When a man wants to make love, he has energy to burn, so anything becomes an excuse to move. He’ll find reasons to get up, pick something up, move things around, or tidy up. His hands will betray him, especially if you see him fidgeting or playing with something!
8. He plans indoor moments
A man who wants to make love to you will also want to create the right setting for it to happen. Instead of planning outdoor dates, he’ll organize a date at home—a moment where you can be alone and free to do whatever you want, away from prying eyes. This way, he’ll have time to be with you and create the perfect atmosphere for the moment!
9. It’s obvious!
Sometimes, without scrutinizing his behavior, it’s just obvious that your man wants you! Whether he tells you directly or deliberately sends you the message, such as by initiating things with a sext.
10. Why not initiate it yourself?
Sometimes, you might be the one who feels desire first, without any particular reason. If that’s the case, there’s only one step before making love: communicating your desire. Some people fear being the one to initiate, and you might be one of them. But think about it: the other person sometimes needs the pleasure of feeling desired and validated.
