Why do guys like when a girl [girlfriend or "romantic interest"] gets sleepy?

[lePoivre]

I've noticed with the guys I've dated that when I get tired and start yawning, they seem to get a little excited. Not sexually (or at least not that I've noticed...) but just like, I'll yawn and they'll smile and become more cuddly. Why is that? Do guys just like it when a girl falls asleep in their arms, even if they don't have sex with her? And if so, why?

My boyfriend is the same way :P But then again, I think it's cute when he's sleepy too :) I think it's about how innocent and sweet you look when you're sleepy that just brings forward our nurturing feelings :)

Haha yeah I know what you mean. My boyfriend doesn't really express tiredness much though, so I don't get to see him like that much. Maybe it's like a teddy bear effect or something. Meaning they get tired and you want to be their teddy bear XD
