because some homeless people are crazy. i don't know where you're from but here at NYC i've seen pretty crazy homeless people inside the subways. some of them are looking at themselves from the door's reflection and yelling/screaming at themselves and some of them even gets aggressive and shouts at other passengers for no reason, too.
We are naturally protective when we love someone sometimes a guy might feel a threat even if the girl does not or vice a versa just something to consider the other thing that he might have been trying to avoid also is any sort of conflict even if there was the slightest potential that this homeless man would have approached you guys it may have seemed like a better idea to just try to avoid it altogether to him
Most guys are traditional and traditionally women were property. Guys who do that today are insecure and or are desperate. Stay away from people who mark you as territory because in the end, men who you might gain something from aren't going to want you. Its like homeless people sleeping near a house. Ruins property value
Okay, well that's not true.
Yes, traditionally women were seen as property.
Yes, a lot of men (such as myself) are traditional. There are pros and cons to that. The cons are, yes, to some extent there is a property-like mentality over our women. The pros to that are taught protectiveness and politness as values as a result. Also, the modern feminist mentality creeps into our traditional mentality and reminds us that in this day and age our "property" is not really our "property", she has whims and wishes too.
Men have an instinct to treat women as something to be claimed dude, get fucking used to it it's our evolutionary psychology, just like to some extent, most women find that trait attractive. And guess what? Neither of us is particularly bad or evil because of it. We're just... Human.
That's just an excuse to scapegoat your fear of losing a women stupid enough to fall for you kiddo. Money runs everything. Soon men like that will be trapped in debt and already are to women financially. You will get phased out like the dinosaurs
What?
Where the fuck does money come into this?
My dad is a retard like that his girlfriend runs his life financially as soon as I got in my relationship I warned my girlfriend I wasn't intertwining my finances. Actually she's bought ME more things than I have her.
And there's no scapegoating here. I know my worth. I'm a pretty decent and caring guy and loving boyfriend so if a woman is stupid for falling for me she must fucking Hellen Keller-levels brain-dead if she falls for you.
Sounds like your just role playing the protective boyfriend role. Only thing your protecting is your girlfriends financial support. If she wanted you to bark like a dog and chase your tail sounds like you would. Glad im not in that situation
Not really dude not at all. I'm the fucking man in my relationship and I know what I want and am willing to do and what I'm not. And so does she. If she wants to keep me around she won't push me. And she doesn't so that says something.
I don't know what the fuck role playing it means.
Sounds like you're just some salty little motherfucker with some real bad demons on your little bitchy past.
Good luck with that shit buddy.
Lol you get mad so easy when someone calls you out for welfare whoring off a woman as a man. Pretty low if you ask me. Not sure what id be salty about being that im financially stable on my own and dont have to parasite off others to eat. So traditional of the woman to bring home bread. Have fun living with your mothwr in a few years from now
Okay several points here:
Number 1: I pay my half of the rent, my car insurance, my bills so... where am I "wellfare whoring" or "parasiting" off of my girlfriend exactly? Pretty easy to make outlandish claims when you know nothing of me or my life, huh?
Number 2: A woman being the bread winner is traditional? That's pretty fucking un-traditional if you ask me, you clearly don't know what the word traditional means. I don't think you'd be hard-pressed to see many women as bread-winners back in, say, the 14 or 1500's. Think before you fuckin' speak sir, please. I hate feeling my brain cells die when another man speaks.
You didn't even read my entire post to post number 2 as a comeback. Its your brain cells that are dead. Lay off the deep fried cocaine and marry jewanna.
What? Dude I'm getting tired of this shit I just don't have the fucking time and energy anymore.
Jesus let's just split hairs here and say I'm right and call it a done day, good night.
It's just our natural instinct.
We protect those we care about, particularly our girlfriend/family. I do the same with my girlfriend, and her kids. Most of the time, we don't even think about it; it's automatic.
Sexual harassment is everywhere. Homeless man will grab your ads or something before you know it. And what you going to do against such a guy? Beat him up? He's got nothing to lose anyway. I once saw a homeless guy on a busy street and just masturbation in front kg everyone while he gawks at the hot girls on the street. If a guy cares about you he will look out for anything and protect you as much as he can. It's what we do.
I like the fact that I can move a girl 😂 it’s so funny and I like making her feel like I care even tho I’m just doing stuff for jokes. Once I held a girls hood when she was walking home with me I was behind her and she got angry because it was like I was walking a dog 😂🙄🙄 I let go and my friends were like wtf. I know but idc
It's just what a decent guy would do in that situation, whether the woman he was with was his girlfriend or not. If for some reason this homeless person was mentally ill (and many of them are), your boyfriend wanted to be between him and you to protect you from any strange, creepy or threatening behavior. You may have had the vibe that this person was harmless, and likely he was, but your boyfriend didn't want to take that chance.
because she's the person we care about and when we care about someone we become protective about that someone,
it's a normal thing for a guy to want to protect his girlfriend
it goes all the way back to the middle ages,
where thou shall not make eyes at a wedded maiden, was considered law in those times
when we love someone, we are going to hold that person close to us, and act as their shield, there's no better way to show devotion than to protect someone
Guys are always protective to people they love
No matter the gender
I like that
@AlbanianYoungLady yeah I know
thank you
It's ok
@AlbanianYoungLady I know
Because God created men like that it is men's nature. We feel better when we protect someone but of course this is not true for all men. this is true for real men.
I love how u put that💖👍
@LuvAsh thank you;)
It's actually the old gentleman way that no one does anymore. The man goes between the woman and any sort of danger. When walking along a road, the man stays between the cars and the lady. If anything happened, he will get hurt and not her. Opening the door for her is another one.
It's a natural biological instinct. Men in general are protectors, and ESPECIALLY when it comes to women and children, but it doesn't ONLY apply to them. There's even a neurological basis to explain how men (subconsciously) are a lot more alert and aware of their surroundings just IN CASE something around might be a threat. Even when they (we) feel safe and calm, our brains are always on the look-out for the slightest indication of a possible threat we might have to deal with.
It all depends the kind of man your with. Tbh! I would of done the same because I have seen shit I wouldn't want to see never again. You may not feel he's a threat because you been home all your life or house parties. Maybe your boyfriend has witnessed bad things. Just know it's ok dont stress ot
It’s natural to men to protect those they love. Sexy as hell
Those are just guys' instincts at play. No need to question him.
One of many things a gentleman should do especially when they're with a lady. Shield them from prospective harm from a unknown source. Gentlemen are also suppose to be nearest to the curb when walking down the street, lead going down stairs in case the lady trips or missteps, follow going up stairs, again in case the lady trips or missteps, and, in general, place your safety and well being above his.
Just because you don't have a bad vibe about something doesn't mean someone else won't. I would have done the same thing since the man was clearly under the influence of alcohol or drugs he could act irrationally and I'd rather be a shield for a woman than trying to wrestle her away from a drunk.
Natural instincts. As deep as u get, the stronger u fall.
Because guys love their women and they want them to be and stay safe. Most women are weaker then men and on top of that it is a man's instinct to protect and keep safe people or things weaker then them.
If he was drunk then he was a potential threat. Drunk people can be hard to predict.
Him wanting to protect you seems pretty normal, maybe he is a little overjudgemental, but he seems to have his heart in the right place.
Because if something happens to her then who's he gonna have sex with?
Wow lol
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂👍😂😂👍👍👍👍
