+1 yHe may have been very nervous about this moment. Perhaps he finally is close body to body with his crush (you).
Or maybe just so insecure and anxious about hugging to long, etc.
I could add so many more theories...
I wouldn't use "his heart was beating so fast" for any presumption00 Reply

+1 yI can't speak for this guy personally, but for me, a long hug with a woman I'm extremely attracted to is both the most comforting and the most exhilarating thing in the world. Yes, there is sexual arousal, but the biggest thing for me is the feeling of closeness and connection in a way that one can only feel with someone they have feelings for. I don't have these types of experiences often, so when they do happen, I become the happiest person in the world and my heart starts beating a million miles a minute.

+1 yIt could be normal. When I breathe slowly my heart beats faster for some reason. but I don't know about him. Ask him if he feels some type of way around you. That is the only way you'll know what he is truly feeling/thinking.

You think he likes me more than just sexually?

I'd be very concerned to rely on relationship intentions of someone who starts with 'just sexually'.
It goes the way it starts - if it starts around sex, it stays around sex. If it stars around a relationship it stays so.
Women continuously make this mistake of looking for sex but hoping for love. If you go after what your body tells you, all you will get is bodily aspects, not anything to do with emotions, soul, or a relationship. That really starts by talking and relating.

I can’t speak for a guy but I know when I give him a hug I can feel his heart beating so fast and then his voice goes all shaky after. And I become the same after I hug him, my heart races during the hug and after I have a shaky voice. It usually happens when you’re attracted to someone.
Another thing I like regardless of feelings being mutual if the hug is a friendly hug (mostly with guy friends) I like to rest my head on their chest and listen to their heartbeat, he’s heart beats fast because he cares and yes friends do love their friends and have a fast heartbeat it could mean they truly care for their friends too.
Sometimes it’s anxiety too or their heart beat was just naturally fast or a health problem.00 Reply
+1 yIt means that he’s heard your compliment that you feel so safe around it and is soooo happy to hear it that adrenaline and dopamine is rushing through him.
Personally, I love being the guy who a girl can feel protected by, feel safe with, that feeling is something I love, so maybe he’s the same way. Don’t think too far into it. He’s happy that you like him, he really likes you too. End of.10 Replywhen guys hug girls, at least for me, it usually is more on the stressful side because it feels so different hugging a girl, like if I hug my sister, my best friend (male), and then my friend girl then the first two hugs are the same but the last one is completely different the feeling is both of being in heaven and going through hell, because it is a really nice feeling when hugging but then you start to feel extreme stress after that. I still enjoy hell hugs more than no hugs by the way.

+1 yit means nothing. hearts beat fast. i once had a girl fall asleep on my chest above my heart and i was like how the hell did she do that because my heart was beating fast? i suppose it's up to the person to decide what's fast

20 Reply558 opinions shared on Guy's Behavior topic. It used to happen to me with my first girlfriend. Major adrenaline rush. I loved holding her but my heart rate pretty much doubled when I did - in a good way!
20 Replythere are possible few
1) he likes you a lot
2) he was little nervous
3) he wanted it, and found unexpectedly
4) a long hug itself is same as a kid finds a candy unexpectedly
5) he was sad and needed a hug and you gave him what he wanted
thousand more00 Replybcoz he was feeling excited , loved , cared , responsible, trustworthy at the same moment

+1 yThe most likely thing, was that he took viagra. It does that, your hearth beats like crazy for a few hours.
Other reason could be just because all of the exercise, and that you are just very aware because you have your ear in his chest.00 Reply1.6K opinions shared on Guy's Behavior topic. How can a heart go miles per minute? By foot? 🤔 What would you guess was the reason?
