- have the hots (for someone)
vb
to nurse a sexual desire for someone, to lust after. The phrase is a variation of other, now obsolescent phrases (to 'be hot for', to 'have the hot ass', etc.) in which hot equates with sexually excited. First heard in the USA in the 1960s, the term quickly spread to other Eng-lish-speaking countries.
