Those Simple Little Things


What are those simple little things someone does to arouse you?

A couple of days ago I was riding the bus home from work. Across the isle on the sunny side was a beautiful woman with long, loosely curled auburn hair. She was magnificently back lit as she gazed out the window. At one point she became lost in her thoughts, reached up and unconsciously started to slowly twirl an end of her long hair. Her fingers slowly intertwined, feeling the texture, rolling the hair between the pads of her finger and thumb in slow sensual circles. For that moment I could feel her hair between my fingers.

That is an example of one of those simple little things. She had no intention of how that moment would be become a little thing for me. Sometimes the little things are purposefully done (a wink, an extended gaze, showing a little extra thigh, etc.) and other times they are just part of a person's mannerisms.

In the erotic book, The Fermata by Nicholson Baker, one of the female characters finds it incredibly sexy to watch a man take off his watch and rub his wrist where it had been. The main male character uses this knowledge of her small fetish to start her seduction in a very unusual way.

There are many of those little things that work for me and many more yet to be discovered. I didn't know that the simple act of twirling her hair in her fingers would be one of them.

So, what are some of those simple little things that make you want?

  1. Funny, I was playing with a strand of my hair when I started to read this! I think it's hot if a guy has long hair and scoops it up off his neck or grabs a handful of it and looks at you. For someone with very short hair, like Fitness, it's cool to see a guy run a hand over his head in a caressing way.

    I hate cigarette smoke, but I have to admit smoking can look very sexy (when I am not down wind of the secondary smoke!).

    A man unbuttoning his shirt collar and untying his tie, just so it opens a little bit to reveal some of his neck. A man unbuckling his belt is a tremendous turn on.

    Not a turn on, definitely, is a man taking off his pants but not his socks. Yech! Funny, it's pretty when a woman does that.
