Actually, it's a nesting instinct girls have. It makes us feel safe, protected. (Guys usually have broad shoulders, so it feels nice to rest there in the crook -- bonus if you've got a strong arm to wrap around our shoulders, lol.
I read somewhere that it also usually makes a guy feel protective. (Something to do with the cluster of nerves in that area.) I can't remember the title, but there was a study ... I'm sure it's easy to "Google Scholar."
BOTTOM LINE: If it freaks you out, just find a nice way to tell her you're not into that.

:) it's comfy. I know when I would do that, I'd feel safe and protected especially when he would wrap his arms around me and hold me tightly. I love hearing his heartbeat too! I don't know what it is about it...it's just comforting...like that's the source of his life and it just feels good to hear it. I like the beat of it.
It just feels. I like listening to his heardbeat too sometimes but that's not the main point it just feels nice lying in his arms. I actually thought guys like it too
"it actually makes me feel protective. I love the fact she loves resting her head on my chest, but her listening to my beating heart freaks me out. she tells me over and over again what a beautiful sound it is. that's why I start to think about blood and my pumping heart and I have a hard time getting it out of my head. lol."
Heart is a lot of times symbol of love ;)
maybe that's why she says she like it
My girl friend lays her head down onto my chest all the time, I'm no complainer I love, its comfortable, intimate and it makes me feel protective of her, as for the heart beat thing it doesn't really bother me, we fall asleep with me holding her every night we are with each other, she prefers playing with my chest and drools on me occasionally but for what ever the reason, I like it.

feeling safe ^_^ ..feeling like anything can come at you and he'll protect you! he's big and strong and awwwwhhhh :)
and if we are honest it's dead comfy...for the girl. I suppose it's not so comfy for the guy as they feel they have to lay paralysed for the whole time lol.
i love listening to his heart beat, its comforting!
Damn boy you got me needing a cuddle now!
where is your man when you need him lol!?!Well, for one, it makes us feel very protected and loved. It's a natural instinct for us to do that. As to the whole heartbeat thing, it's very comforting to know that you're alive and well and with us. But, that's not the main thing. The main thing is feeling protected and loved.
Because it's cozy and intimate. What's not to like? Haha. I like the heartbeat thing too, it just makes you feel close to someone, it's very comforting. =]
The question is: Why do you see it as a problem?
Girls are emotional and find it comfy and romantic.I like it. Intimacy, touch, closeness, is a huge part of a relationship. How could you not enjoy that?
consider yourself lucky that you have a girl resting her head on your chest :l because I'm totally jealous
