im talking about guys who will get in a guys face if some dude is hitting on his girlfriend. do girls like that or would they rather the guy trust her and deal with it on her own?

Some girls would enjoy this type of man while others would see it as a big turn off. Really depends on the individual. (and I know all the girls on this thread are relatively stable with emotional maturity so I predict they will mostly say they find such behavior a turn-off... But trust me, there are others out there that'll like it)

Well, I can speak for myself, in that I like a masculine and protective man, but not aggressive. Unless my safety was at risk I would not appreciate a guy "getting in a guy's face" if they were "hitting on me". In general, I would prefer my guy would just trust me. I like confident men.

Nah don't get into his face to cause a scene. Your job as a partner is to get your girl and yourself out of that situation safely with the least amount of conflict as possible.

So your saying that this has happened to you?

Are the guys who are quick to get in a guys face if that person's hitting on this girlfriend...

 

...aggressive? Yes.

...confident? No.

...mature? No.

...insecure/jealous/overly sensitive? Likely yes.

 

There's a good chance those guys have some inner issues.

 

Confident men who are secure, civilized, street-smart and will have their GF's back when she's really in trouble don't act like the above men. They choose their battles wisely, know how to resolve conflicts peacefully, know when to back off and let their girlfriends handle things, and know when to take charge and remove himself and her from the situation before it potentially gets out of hand.

I can handle myself. There's no need to "get in a guy's face" if he's hitting on me - that's harmless. And if my partner doesn't trust me, our relationship is doomed, with or without the extra attention.

It would embarrass me. I find it incredibly immature and off putting. Why resort to behavior like that? There are a thousand ways to do it that can BOOST your image instead of degrade it.

 

This was just brought up in another thread. You can also read the responses there and see how women react negatively to this kind of thing.

Aggressive -- no. Assertive -- yes.

 

 

You need to trust her to handle it but be there as back up if she can't.

 

 

The girls who like the in your face guy you describe tend to be young & immature. They mistake the possessiveness for love.

I'm a guy but if a guy hits on her at the club/bar we're at I'll just let it happen and watch. Does it bother me? Not at all until the guy pushes it too far by touching her inappropriately. Or if she is pushing the boundaries herself then her and I will have an issue. What does getting in his face achieve besides making you look like a insecure chump? A lot of girls like attention and if the guy wants to stroke their egos then go ahead if she's secure and knows who she wants to be with it doesn't matter. Guys like attention from girls also, they like to stroke their own egos by talking to girls and knowing they still "have it" but it's the actions they take that is the difference between right and wrong.

That would be a turn off for me. I like a man that can protect me, but it's a huge turn off if a man starts a fight.

Keith would watch with amusement. He's very secure in our relationship, and with good reason, and would trust me to handle it.

Most women want a MAN to make love to them, not a boy.

They like aggressive men. But they don't like stupid men. And they don't like overly emotional men.

 

Any man who is willing to jump in another guys face just for "flirting" is stupid and overly emotional. You have to pick and choose your battles. Every girl wants a man that can protect them, but not a man who wants to go around acting like a tough guy and starting fights. Most girls HATE that. And the girls who like it tend to be emotionally unstable. Same kinda girls who like to start arguments and try and make you jealous.

 

Girls do love an assertive man though. A guy who can put them in their place. Get a little rough with them sometimes. A dude with drive and who isn't a pushover.

 

But assertive/aggressive =/= tough guy. Nobody likes a wannabe tough guy.
