Guys, Why do guys tease women like little boys when they like them?

[SarahburtonGH]

Why do grown men act like little boys and tease a girl, playfully make fun of her, call her stupid weird nicknames, basically act silly and immature.

I know not all men are like this. But some are and it just makes me wonder why...

Sounds like something exactly little boys would do. You sure you talking about men, and not boys lol

[SarahburtonGH]

Oh yea some men I know behave that way

[JC103]

What kind of nicknames. It could just be because they like the girl

[SarahburtonGH]

No I know it’s bc they like the girl but why do they resort to that behavior? Is it nerves, is it that they don’t know how to process their emotions? Is it something else I’m not understanding?

[JC103]

It’s just how men are at first. We accept other men as friend by making fun of them. It’s how some guys personally are. The main reason is lack of life experience and environment.

it has nothing to do with immaturity. get off your high horse, or you'll stay single.

[SarahburtonGH]

Woah, I think you read my question wrong... I’m not calling them immature I’m saying very mature grown men have a tendency to suddenly act silly, immature and weird around a girl they really like and I just wanted to know why.

So tell me if it’s not about immaturity what is it that causes them to act like little boys with crushes? I think it’s aftually cute but just interested to know the psychology behind it

[genericname85]

it's not "immature" xD it's fun that's how flirting works dude...

[SarahburtonGH]

Wow you seriously can’t get passed that one word can you? Forget it. You clearly don’t want to answer or take my question seriously

[genericname85]

i did answer it seriously. "that's how it works". why be all serious about this shit? that would be lame

[GreatnessBack]

How would women like to be treated?

[Jhon24]

Its out of love

[SarahburtonGH]

Right but why turn into little boys? I think it’s cute but I just want to know the psychology of “it’s out of love”

Why tease and act silly and younger than your age?

[Jhon24]

Well deep inside each of us is a little child comes out when we are with someone we like and comfortable with
