A guy that apologizes too much?

what does this say about him

i mean I could be on the phone with him and I joke around with him for everything he would say IM SORRY

I used to do that, it could be that he feels as though he isn't doing things right (reassurance and letting him know he SHOULDN'T apologize so much/doesn't need to may help), it could be that he has concerns about by saying something/doing something wrong to drive you away, most likely it is either a sign of insecurity of himself, and or a sign that he fears losing you/upsetting you.

Whatever the case reassurance, and letting him know he doesn't need to/shouldn't say it so much, but it may be a delicate matter, so be sure to emphasize that it's because you feel as though he doesn't need to say it all the time and that it'd make you feel better if he didn't feel the need to apologize as much; because just telling him it irritates or bothers you and that you'd rather him not do that could cause him to react negatively either not EVER/rarely saying sorry even when he does screw up, or him feeling as saddened as if he's failed you by saying it so much when saying it so regularly was supposed to be that preventative measure of not bothering of offending you.

(Again been there, worked through it, came out better because of it. =) )

I hope this helps, and best of luck to you.

Some guys are like that out of habit. I tend to apologize a little too much myself, but not in a sincere tone all the time. More like a casual, "I'm sorry". Every guy is different. If he's apologizing to you every so often, and making a big deal out of trivial matters, then he's got issues.

i have the same probelm...i apologize alot. its a habit, I even do it unconciously.

but its good. it means he want to impress you, respects you, looks up to you, and all that, and doesn't want to screw up, though he evidently is by doing just that.

i don't thinks its that annoying. it shows sensitivity, and how is that bad?

Its a consent thing I could talk to him and I would say something about my favorite resteraunt and he would say oh I've never been and I just jokly say omg ur so deprived you haven't lived 'till you've been there and from there he would just apologies and apologies and talk I'm sorry omg I'm sorry or I would talk to him about music and listening to new bands and when I tell him about a band that he has never listened to he goes on an apologysing spree.

Yeah, he is apologising to you and to himself for not be interesting for you, and having lived in a hermit shell it sounds like.
