The best way to hug a guy depends on whether you want the hug to be romantic or friendly. If it’s a romantic hug, start by stepping in close and making eye contact. If you want, warm up to the hug with a gentle touch on his arm or shoulder. Then, wrap your arms around him. Depending on how tall he is, you could put your arms around his neck or slide them under his arms and around his back. Either way, try not to overthink it—do whatever feels natural and comfortable. Once your arms are around him, relax and get cozy. You could try pressing your chest up against his or resting your head on his shoulder or chest. If you want to make the hug a little more intimate, try caressing his back with your hands, moving in even closer, or reaching up to pull him into a kiss. When you’re done with the hug, slowly pull back. If you want to let the moment last a little longer, let your hands rest on his shoulders or chest for a minute and gaze into his eyes before you completely break contact. If you’re going for more of a friendly hug, start by making eye contact and opening your arms. You can even say something like, “Bring it in,” or “Give me a hug, big guy!” This will give him a heads up that you want a hug, so it doesn’t take him by surprise. If he seems okay with it, step up close and put your arms around him. You can also give him a quick pat on the shoulder if you want, since this is a friendly gesture that doesn’t feel overly intimate. Keep the hug quick, since a friendly hug can start to feel awkward if it goes on too long. 2 to 3 seconds is usually a good length of time. When you’re done, gently let him go and take a step back to end the hug. For tips on how to turn a hug into a handshake, read on!

Can you tell by someone's eyes if they love you?

They look at you ... a lot Harvard psychologist Zick Rubin found a correlation between eye contact and love. In his study, couples deeply in love look at one another 75% of the time while talking, while people engaged in conversation only look at each other about 30-60% of the time.

businessinsider.com - 7 Signs Someone Is in Love With You — Even If It Doesn't Seem Like It

1. They have fun with you even if the task at hand is not fun, per se The saying, "It’s not what you do, but who you're with" is popular for a reason — because it's true. Pay attention to the person who's always there for you, even when the task at hand is not outwardly a fun one, like helping you move. "A sign someone may be in love with you includes their ability to have fun with you even during mundane tasks," Dr. Flores said. "If they are happy to see you, no matter what the two of you are doing, it may be love." Kailen Rosenberg, elite matchmaker and founder of The Lodge Social Club, a dating application with a three-step vetting process that launched earlier this month, agrees. "The person will often go the 'extra mile' to help you with something — a project, a need, an errand, etc.," she told Business Insider. "Bottom line, they want to be near you, thought of by you, and assist you."
