Why 3rd grade behavior?

[sheepingly]

I've always wondered about men and their 3rd grade behavior.......you now what I mean...the:

- Playful hitting/kicking/poking (even the fake hitting/kicking....where they do it to the air near you)

- Playful teasing

- Nicknames

- The talking all manly in their "gruffy" voice

- The tickling and the roughousing/wrestling/playfighting/chasing

- The jokes and the doing dumb stuff in front of you....


I always wonder why they do that to women or certain women...is it because they dont respect the women as much that they don't do those things to?

My guy does absolutely none of the above. The ex had given me a cute nickname but I used the same nickname on him. It's wasn't really a nickname I suppose.

Are you in high school? Maybe he is stuck in a phase. He will probably grow out of most if not all of the above.

Hmm... I kind of LIKE some of that behavior (except the air-punching/kicking). It's playful. Maybe you are too serious?

In any case, there are plenty of men who don't do this kind of thing.

Maybe you should marry a rock then.

Gosh why are you so uptight? I love to wrestle and have fun with my guy. It makes the relationship more exciting. I believe guys do like women who dont act girly all the time, or at least thats what I've been told. Idk, maybe I'm different from you guys, but I've got 4 brothers, so the only woman I was growing up around was my mother. So I am used to rough housing and wrestling and shit like that. Loosen up, you'll probably like it.

Because we are f*#&ing awesome. And we have penises.

You need to relax and learn to cut loose sometimes.

I never said i didn't like it, I just wondered why they did that to women...if it was a lack of respect thing or ...??

Not at all...its having the ability to have fun with your partner...it keeps the relationship exciting

Its called Fun and being boyish. Its what makes men great fathers, IMO.

what about female friends...what about that person makes them do that kinda thing with them and not others....

What do you mean?I'm kinda confused by your last post...can you break it down?

Are you saying there are guys who have female friends they do it with and they dont do it with anyone else?

In my experience a couple have done it to me but never was like that around other female freinds/acquaintances/significant others

I think they're comfortable with you. It is in no way a sign of disrespect unless of course he does it after you've asked him to stop and they continue intentionally.
