What does it mean if a guy calls you his property and tells you that no one else is allowed to touch you except him?

This type of behavior is an indication that the person you're with is very controlling and dominant in his personality---or---it could mean he's very insecure and has little to no self-confidence in himself. There are the cases where a person can be very possessive and territorial with their girl. They don't want anyone else around her and they especially don't want anyone else touching her. In some cases this means they're not sure of the relationship, not sure of your feelings, or whether or not you're going to be loyal to him, or just jerk him around and betray him by seeing others behind his back. These uncertainties would cause him to want to keep you close and by calling you his property, he's attempting to instill in you the notion that you are his and only his and you're not allowed to be around others without his permission. This type of relationship can be intense, but it can also cause a lot of drama and be dangerous for you if he has deeper issues and takes his possessiveness to the extreme. You need to confront him about why he is saying what he is saying and get to the heart of why he feels that way and then you'll have to decide if that's the type of relationship you want to be in and if he's the type of person you want to share your life with.

It's called controlling. Or being possessive. A confident and well adjusted guy doesn't need to do this - he always gives you your freedom to be and do what is best for you.

Ask yourself if you really wanted to be 'owned'. Consider moving along, this generally never ends well. You've heard of stalking right? And abuse? That comes next. Get out now while you still can. If you can.

It means he's got a bit of a dom in him lol. He's just being possessive, a lot of women find it very arousing. There is a point where it can be uncomfortable and that's when you let him know that you dont like it.

It means you're 5/8 of a person and must do whatever he says. Anyways it means he's very possessive over you and is a giant red flag

He's possessive but it can depend on his tone when, how and where he says it as to whether he's a douche or just in love with you.

It means he sees you as property not as a person who can or should make their own decisions.  Big red flag.

LaurenB98 · Answer

I think it means he sees you as an object rather than a person, is insecure and needs some sort of control over you.

FashionQueen86 · Answer

It means exactly the way it sounds; he wants total control over you and hopes you don't have a mind and will of your own to think for yourself and make your own decisions.

TheButterfly · Answer

It means he is creepy. Unless he says this in a sub/dom sexual context is sounds way to posessive. I understand wanting to keep you to himself, but not calling you property

babeeeone · Answer

It means exactly that, he wants you all for himself and no one else can have you, or even try to. Very controlling to refer to someone as their "property".
