You know how sometimes when you're starting to get a crush or infatuation people describe the feeling of having "butterflies in your stomach"? Well, some of us are pretty slow to get butterflies, but there is another feeling I feel is sometimes a prequel but distinct in itself that maybe we can call caterpillars.
Slowly crawling, there may not be any any feelings flitting about, but there is a thought where can't help but notice "hey, this person has x nice quality, I might want to get to know them a little better."
Not all caterpillars become butterflies, sometimes they turn out to be cute little worms or die altogether, but they are curious little somethings that seemed to deserve their own distinct idiom.

eg: "I didn't feel butterflies in my stomach, but maybe caterpillars in my brain."
