Girls, What do you think of a guy that jokingly gives you a hard time/teases you because he likes you?

Like when you are talking he acts like he didn't hear you and makes you repeat yourself a couple of times until he laughs and shows he was just messing around.

When you ask him to do something he says, "No! I'm not going to do that." And then he smiles and laughs showing that he's messing around and does what you asked him to do.

He playfully gives you a hard time. When it's just the two of you talking he's all smiles and really showing that he's into you and finds you cute.

If it were me, I'd not be interested in him. Even in my twenties, I didn't like this kind of guy. It doesn't have bad intentions, but it feels immature. He feels like a boy more than a man.

I love clever humour and wit, but this is not either. Teasing can be fun sometimes, but it's really the most fun when it comes from really knowing the person, and there's a comfort level between you. You have shared and revealed your peccadilloes, and that intimacy is the gift. It's next-level, to be privy to that stuff, and in those cases, it feels like you each earned the right to rib each other a bit.

Teasing can be a sign of affection; or it can be a sign of negative feelings toward someone, and they're expressed this small way, to let off frustration. I'm sure this guy likes you, by the way you describe him. He's not ill-intentioned. He's just kind of boyish. If you don't like it, the behaviour, but you do like him, just don't laugh, don't smile when he does it. Be very stoic, or even look annoyed if that's how you feel. He'll get the picture, and maybe slowly phase out of doing it. Then the real relationship can begin.

Big fan. If a guy is too afraid to tease me then he'll never be relaxed around me.

Sometimes he might be meaning it to be as 'flirting' but sometimes it's not good. If he's hurting a girl's feelings then it's unacceptable for sure, girls also have feelings and they gotta be treated well
