Girls, do you enjoy arguing with guys?

[Anonymous]

I'm all for playful banter. I engage in it with my female friends quite often, we take a jab or two and leave it alone. There's this girl who is not really my friend but I argue with her ALL the time. About stupid things most of the time, it gets kinda heated but its always playful until one of us gives up (we are pretty stubborn). We kinda bait each other into the argument by making statements we know the other is going to react to, and we usually remember little details and things we said and use them against each other to give the other a taste of our own medicine. I admit its fun, but its this normal? I have never argued with anybody this much, it feels like we just try to annoy each other by taking things "the wrong way" and stuff. I kinda like her so I remember little details about our everyday conversations and she recently surprised me by remembering my favorite team (a friend of mine was talking to me about said team and she said "careful what you say, that's his team" even though she doesn't really like sports and the last time I mentioned the name was a LONG time ago) and just in general she remembers a lot of stuff, but she says she doesn't really find me interesting and I'm very irritating. Is she just trying to hide something or does she argue because she dislikes me? DO you usually argue with a specific guy all the time? if so, why?

dude she likes you! it happened the same with my ex crushed! we use to fight all day long and people would know us for that, and then they started bothering that we liked each other... I must be honest... I did like him and that's why I argued with him... because I wanted his attention! so yeah, I think she likes you...im almost sure... ha ha its like reading my life because he did this for the same reaon and you said " I kinda like her" so goo for it! :) good luck! :)

There are certain guys I get into arguments with all the time, two actually. One I like and our arguments are just playful, but the other I hate and you can tell because I get really bitchy when I argue with him.

If you hate the guy, do you pick arguments with him or you only argue if he starts arguing? Sometimes I kinda "ignore" this girl and talk to other people when she is in the room and she'll either make some smartass comment at me or be all sarcastic while clearly I'm not provoking her.

[childrenofbodom]

Usually only if he says something first

[Asker]

Check. What about the guy you DO like? do you kind look for an opening or is it the same deal?

[childrenofbodom]

I saying something I know is going to get something started. Like if his favorite team just lost a game, I'll comment on that and we'll start arguing about who's team is better

[Asker]

Cool. I'm assuming that, as any sane individual would do, if you hate a person, you try your best to avoid any kind of interaction and if he said "im going to leave you alone" you would let him go and not say "you don't have to do that" or something that will stop him from going, right?

[childrenofbodom]

Yea and if he said that I'd be probably say "well its about damn time"

[Asker]

Lol alright, thanks

yeah I'm a libra. how you argue kinda says something about the person. I like a guy who can hold his own and not just agree with mebecause he thinks he'll be in my good graces, nor be disrespectful because I don't share the same opinion. a little arguing banter is cute

Sure it's fun arguing with guys and yeah I do always argue with specific guys because they're the ones who always has me laughing in the arguments. It's all for fun.

[Asker]

But what if you keep arguing with the guy and you keep calling him annoying and enfuriating and not funny? Could her time be that devaluated that she opts to get into random arguments with people she doesn't find interesting? Like I said, every time we see each other we argue, sometimes I start and others she does and people tell us we are like an old married couple, so you can get an idea of how out of control it can get

[kamryrose]

Yeah well if I get into a real argument with a guy it's because I either like him more than a friend or hate him. But otherwise it's funny arguments.
