Sexual Tension: 25 Signs Your Sexual Appetite Is Out Of Control

What is sexual tension?

Sexual tension is a phenomenon only those can explain who have experienced it themselves. It is difficult to aptly explain the adrenaline rush, the pumping of the hearts and the electric signals that one experiences in the body when they meet a person they are sexually attracted to. It gets really hard to ignore it and you end up in a messy situation as you are unable to control your actions and your mind. It is not even necessary to be emotionally connected to a person to develop a sexual tension with him. A sexual tension can happen without any logical reasoning at times. Many times, the sexual tension you feel is equally reciprocated by the other person too. He or she feels the same sexual tension when you are around. You cannot think of anything other than grabbing that person and having sex with that person then and there. If you act on it immediately, you can have a mind-boggling and bed-breaking sex with that person then and there. It is a clear sign that your sexual compatibility with that person is on an instinctive level and whenever you see him or her, the raw animalistic passion inside you ignites. Many times, people have to masturbate in order to relieve themselves from this crazy sexual tension. Sexual attraction is different from sexual tension. It is a wild connection you feel with the person and you need not be emotionally attached to him also. A sexual attraction towards someone is developed often when you are emotionally attached to the person. It can change with your feelings. A sexual tension often develops when you don't get the object of your sexual attraction. He or she might not respond to you in a similar way, might be attached to someone else or you cannot have sex with that person owing to social obligations. Then the sexual attraction becomes a sexual tension. A sexual attraction takes the form of sexual tension when you try to suppress it. A sexual tension is always easy to sense and often the people going through it feel that their behavior is absolutely normal and that they appear quite calm to the public, but in reality, it is just the opposite. Sexual tension leaves obvious telltale signs and almost everyone can easily notice the sexual chemistry between two people. Following are some sexual tension signs:

Don’t worry, this isn’t going to be a mushy love post. • •Just kidding. You think I’d really post a photo of this man without falling to pieces? Without this gentleman by my side, my sanity would be gone. It would have packed it’s bags & left years ago without saying goodbye. Raising babies is rough.. it’s not all pretty butterflies, rainbows & happy snuggles. It’s work. It’s long nights, very early mornings & lots of gross clean ups in between, but this man is my teammate, my best friend & love of my life. He has long, demanding days at work but you’d never guess, because he comes home each night with a smile on his face, ready to get on the floor to build block castles with the boys. He kisses me in the morning before leaving for work, & holds my hand as we fall asleep. (& gives me compliments, even when my hair looks like a family of squirrels has been nesting in it, as it does in this photo 🐿) He gets up every morning at 5 am, yet willingly volunteers to be the one to put Kai back to sleep when he comes into our room after having a nightmare at 2 am. Many people ask how marriage is after having kids & how we keep the romance alive. I really believe it comes down to being each other’s biggest supporters & best friends. When life gets tough, it’s easy to become irritable & upset with each other, with no other reason than just wanting to point the finger to blame someone else. But sticking with each other through the good & bad, and loving one another for everything they are -> that takes courage. I love this man for everything he is & for every little thing he does for us everyday. Just feeling especially grateful to have him in my life this morning & counting down the hours until he gets home from work. ⏳❤️

1. The sexual tension is mutual

If the sexual tension is mutual, you and the object of your attraction will feel the same electricity and chemistry between both of you. A mere touch can send in a thousand shock waves to each other's body. All you think of is having sex and the beauty of it that the other person feels the same. A sexual tension aggravates when it is responded in a similar way but if the other person ignores you then the sexual tension, mostly, dies on its own.

2. You make a lot of eye contact

When there is a mutual sexual tension between two people, they deal with it by making a lot of eye contact. They stare right inside the core of the person's eye. Eyes are the way to one's soul. Sexual tension makes you want to connect with the person on a spiritual level. You make lots of eye contact and at times can stare at the other person for a long period of time without even blinking the eyes.

3. You get electric shocks on seeing your partner

Now this feeling has to be experienced to be able to understand better. You may love your current partner but it is not necessary that every time you see him or her, you get a feeling of a thousand electric shocks passing through your nerves. Such is the magic of sexual tension. You feel this kind of sensation only with someone with whom you have a sexual tension with. A slight brush of the hand or touch of a finger can send ripples of shocks in your nervous system.

4. Body language

Your body language becomes quite obvious that you are sexually attracted towards that person. Your body automatically gets more inclined to that person. You want to touch that person again and again. You come close and try to touch each other on false pretexts. You lean towards that person and all you want to do is to grab that person and ride on him or her till you are satiated. Your body language can easily betray you when you have a strong sexual attraction for someone. It is your body's way to deal with the sexual tension.

5. You automatically get into horny talk

You try to deal with your sexual tension in your own way. Whenever you make any conversation with that person, you notice that your talks get horny or dirty automatically.

When you get close to that person, your sexual tension gets too much to deal with and your voices automatically get low key and huskier. It is an unconscious try from your mind to invite the other person for sex in a seductive tone.

It is your body's own language coming out from your mouth to invite the other person for a raw act of sex.

Some alone time with your lover will give you ample opportunity to initiate a proposal for sex. Sexual tension can be said as a prolonged foreplay which occurs only in the mind.

You try to create opportunities to be alone so that you can have sex and relieve yourself of your sexual tension.

10. You exchange a lot of smiles

You exchange a lot of smiles to let the other person that you appreciate his presence, his looks, his body and him. Smiling a lot makes a good and positive connection with the other person.

16. You want to stay around that person for a little longer

A little while longer, some extra moments and a few extra minutes, perhaps you get a better chance with him or her alone. Perhaps, you get to touch that person. And also because it is so damn difficult to pull yourself out of the strange sexually charged up atmosphere.

17. You try to touch him even in public

When you feel a sexual tension towards someone, your mind and body is hardly in control. You cannot help but even touch that person in public assuming that none would notice. Sexually attracted people often lose their mind and behave awkward even in public.

Concentrating and putting your mind elsewhere becomes a challenge when you are sexually tensed. All you can think of is sex and you cannot put your mind to productive use.
