Why is it that my boyfriend gets more attached and lovey dovey after I call him out on his BS?

[DermalPunch]

This doesn't mean insults and yelling. I mean clearly and fearlessly communicating my displeasure and calling out mismatches between his words and actions.

[RedStealthOperative]

Maybe he finds the strength in your character really attractive. Like showing him that he can't walk all over you might turn him on.

[DermalPunch]

I have a young son and the pattern isn't far off.

[Andres77]

He's trying to make up for being a doofus.

[DermalPunch]

It was very doofusy.

[Andres77]

👍👍👍

[fonduegirl]

Because it's hot to know your girl knows how to communicate well

[DermalPunch]

Yes, communication is soooo hot! 🔥

[msc545]

He wants you to stop being critical of him and thinks this kind of behavior will do it

[DermalPunch]

I was well within my right. I wasn't critical of him as a person either.

[FilmGuy93]

Presumably it's because he genuinely wants to be a better partner.

[Anonymous]

He knows your right and he's trying to change the subject, lol.

[DermalPunch]

Yes, he said I was right and apologized. (I was right) It's just whenever this happens it's as if he likes me more than before.

[Alex8736]

Calling someone out is the best way to go rather than holding things in

[NathanDavis]

toxic people like that... lol

[driven159]

he is trying to get on your good side

[RobEurope]

Insecurities to lose you lol.

[qusai_jo]

i didn't got your question can you explain

[DermalPunch]

Can you tell me specifically what you don't get and then I can explain. Thanks!

[Anonymous]

Common sense.

[DermalPunch]

Common sense isn't common. Care to elaborate? Well, please can you, lol.

[Opinion Owner]

I could, but no.

[DermalPunch]

Are you British?

[Jouth]

[DermalPunch]
