These things are what guys can’t stop thinking about…

Ever notice how some girls just seem to have the ability to magically cause men to go from sane to psychotically obsessed with them?

Though some guys tend to get more obsessive than others, there are quite a few female qualities that men go gaga over.

Here what men love about women that can cause them to go nuts.

1. Your personality

Now, I’m skeptical of this because I’ve been burned out by guys, but my guy friends are adamant that the thing that makes them hung up over a girl is her personality rather than her looks. As one of my friends explained, “This one girl had me bad because she could even make doing taxes fun. I was hooked.”

2. Your smell

I’ve personally witnessed this with one of my exes, who would literally go through the clothes in my laundry hamper to smell my dirty clothing. To a point, it makes sense. Everyone has a different smell, and our body odor has pheromones in it. When a guy’s very into you, he might start sniffing your clothes like my ex did.

3. Your praise

Guys are, in a lot of ways, like overgrown puppies with better toilet training. You know how puppies go crazy when you praise them and tell them they’re good boys? Guys are very similar. They are addicted to getting praise and compliments from girls. It’s validating for them. So, it shouldn’t surprise you the lengths guys will go to get said praise.

4. Your makeup and hair quirks

One guy who I used to date would always check my nails because he knew I love doing nail art and following Instagram nail art trends. Eventually, he flat out said that my love of having long, multicolored claws was kind of an obsession for him. Who’s to say that a guy won’t obsess over hair color or makeup style either?

5. The sex

Men are sex obsessed by nature, so it shouldn’t come as a shock to anyone that guys will end up getting obsessed over a girl who can really blow their minds in bed. I’ve personally seen guys crawl back to an ex who was purported “the best they’ve ever had,” DECADES after the relationship ended. Yes, good sex skills are that important if you want to get a guy thinking nonstop.

6. Your absence

This is something that personally irks me, but it’s human nature. It’s the Push-Pull Dynamic at work, which means guys will get obsessed about chasing a girl who’s just standoffish enough to make them think they have a chance. A lot of guys won’t catch feelings unless a girl is just out of their grips. This is why the best way to get a guy is often to make sure you aren’t around him 24/7.
