things i love about boys (mannerism edition)
you guys loved the last one so much - i'm going to make this a series!
laughter. listen, i'm a simple lad. i hear a boy laugh, and i suddenly forget how to act like a person. something made him so happy, or he found a half-baked meme on iFunny that made him do the half-smile-blowing-air-out-your-nose thing. one of the best sounds, A+.
hugs. boy's hugs. hugs from boys. they're always so warm and soft... and you can just feel his outer shell melt away. sometimes, he'll stroke your hair and whisper things in your ear as he hugs you. they range from a soft, "i love you" or a silly inside joke that cracks you up.
jumps. they are very hoppy ones, why is this? when he sees a door frame, it is inevitably smacked. when he sees another boy, and they get excited, they hop? it is very adorable and confusing, 10/10.
singing. the number one way to make me melt into a very gay puddle on the floor. they hum under their breath when doing homework or doing chores - and half the time, they won't even know what song it is. they enjoy singing in the shower as loud and obnoxiously as possible - but only when you're around to hear him. too adorable.
sleeping. how are boys so adorable when they're literally doing nothing? picture your boyfriend/crush sleeping next to you. he makes little sounds. he roll. he flip over. sometimes, he'll steal your blanket. and sometimes he'll GIVE YOU HUGS IN HIS SLEEP. HELP.
reading. nothing is softer than a boy with a book in front of his face. pushing his glasses up the bridge of his nose when they slide down. turning pages quickly, and literally tapping his foot when it gets suspenseful. throwing the book across the room when the dog dies-
passions. i will cry. he waves his hands around excitedly over the nerdiest things. when you start talking about one of his special interests, he lights up like a christmas tree, and starts talking at 2x speed. he is so excited to show you the things that he loves. let him.
soft interactions. boys playing fetch with a puppy, but he ends up doing all the fetching. boys falling asleep with a kitten curled up on their chests. boys running around with little kids, and having the most adorable and nonsensical conversations. boys... marry me.
clumsiness. the cute dumbass trope in general. when they try to high-five a buddy and totally miss. when they try to impress someone and end up tripping over a potted plant. accidentally ignoring wet floor signs and literally falling down a flight of stairs-
comfort. boys wearing the biggest, fluffiest hoodies. whining when you get out the bed to make breakfast because bABE YOU'RE LEAVING THE COMFYNESS?? their annoyed tired groans when they eventually have to wake up and join the world.
please comment and/or reblog with some more mannerisms that you love about boys!
