Read His (Sexy) Lips

A man's kisser can't lie, according to body-language experts. Pay attention to these subtle mouth moves and you won't have to ask what he's thinking. redesignPageHead ABOVE SHOULD EXIST ON ALL ARTICLE PAGES (FOR NOW) (IE style comments prevent IE6 character repeat bug on Video Gallery Landing Page) guy lipsEmmet Malmstrom

He's Smirking
When the corners of a guy's mouth pull back and up, it can look like a douchey sneer. But surprisingly, it means he wants to smile, but he's feeling self-conscious. It's harder for men to show positive emotions, so this mini smile is his "controlled" version of a big grin.

His Pout Is Pursed
He probably has bad news — like he dented your car or can't make it to your BFF's party. A scrunched-up pucker and tension around his lips are signs he is struggling to force out the words.

He Covers His Mouth With His Palm
Something (you?) is making him nervous! Touching himself is a form of self-soothing, and briefly shielding his lips shows he's feeling too tongue-tied to speak.

He Bites His Lip
Yeah, baby, he's hot for you. Chewing is what we do to something yummy, so he's subconsciously nibbling his lips, imagining putting them on yours.

"I'll look at a bedpost and another piece of furniture and try to figure out if I can use the Pythagorean theorem to calculate the distance between the two objects."
—Joshua, 27

"I'll never tell a girl this, because it's a topic you don't even mention around them, but dead animals on asphalt. Works instantly."
—Gus, 25

"I used to picture my grandma, but that got old and stopped working. So now I picture my grandma eating a giant turkey leg and smearing grease all over her face. If you can come while you're thinking of that, you're just sick."
—Ryan, 30

"I like to go through every division in baseball and try to name the teams in each one. But I'm from Saint Louis, so sometimes when I get to the Cardinals, I can't hold back anymore."
—Jason, 27

"What really kills my boner is trying to figure out what her parents look like based on her appearance."
—Mike, 27
