Sounds rather bitchy.

Why not give him a break? You’re probably mad about something else. If the trend continues, you guys might want to have a little talk.

Well.. you’re human right? Its perfectly fine to get upset when somebody says something you don’t like. Just learn how to get over it. We’re all entitled to our different opinions and therefore you’re not always going to hear something you like. Just don’t stay mad because he can start getting annoyed by that.

that’s not ‘no reason’. it depends on what he says. My ex-girlfriend would get made at me when I’d say randomly sexist things but not only was I joking but they’re absurdly inane things that there’s no way anyone believes. and I didn’t do it in public. I don’t think it’s fair for her to get mad at me over that. However one time my mom yelled at her and I didn’t say anything and she was angry at me. I would say righteously so.

If he says something you didn’t like, then that’s not for no reason. And it really depends on what it is that he said. It’s hard to say whether or not it’s wrong for you to be mad without more details.

It is wrong to be mad at him for no reason, but depending on what he said and how he said it, you may have a reason to be mad at him. Have you discussed this calmly with him, explaining why what he said bothered you?

I think it’s a balance between cutting-off-the-nose-to-spite-the-face and lose-the-battle-win-the-war, if one was to make it into an aphorism duel.

Completely depends on what he said.

Why not discuss things with him? No need for anger.

I you confront him while you are mad your next question here will probably be, “How long does it take to get over someone?”

marinelife's avatar

More detail is necessary. What is the something that you didn’t like?

Welcome to the collective. It would be very helpful if you could use capitalization and spell out words.

Yea it is wrong! Atleast tell him why you are mad, then he will know, if you don’t tell him he will probably get more angry than you already are.

It’s natural to get upset over things. If he did say something disrespectful, hurtful, etc. then it’s fine if you’re upset.

soar's avatar

Nah. It’s in a girls nature to be a complete bitch. You’re just doing what you’re meant to do.

Honestly; I hate girls like you. You get pissed, we ask what’s wrong and I’m sure you say oh nothing, everything’s fine and dandy. It’s not wrong to be pissed because he said something you didn’t like but at least tell him WHY you’re pissed so he can say sorry or something.

Feelings are never “wrong” – it’s how we react to those feelings that matters. Depending on what he said, you learn with experience to just let some things go.

I agree with @Darwin. It’s not wrong to be mad at him if its justifiable and if he said something that hurt your feelings but it’s stupid to be mad for no reason. I used to get mad at my boyfriend for the STUPIDest shit, but every time that would happen, a half hour later I would reflect on the situation and be so embarassed that I got mad.

If you won’t remember it a year from now…it may not be worth getting mad over :)

ur right it is wrong to be mad at him but i just do it to see if he cares bout my feelings

rrmkdynuupye's avatar

i just do it to see if he cares bout my feelings

not. cool. that’s the kind of stupid nonsense that has guys hating women. If you want to be mad at him cause he did something fine. I can accept that but if you like a guy and you get along and you want to maintain a relationship (of any level above advisary) with him it is not ok to get mad at him just to test his resolve. My ex and even my girl friends they all have their faults but I thank my lucky stars every day I’ve never had a close relationship with a girl who would do that.

Think of men as animals. a puppy if you will. if the puppy makes a mess you yell at it and smack it with a paper (just an example.. please don’t call Animal Rights) if the puppy is just playing with a bone in the yard you don’t walk up and smack it just to see if it still remembers the lesson.

Please I beg of you unless you’re married and looking for make-up sex do not test a man’s resolve like that. I’ve SEEN it backfire more than once and i’ve even seen it from the girls side. It’s not a good idea. Just be truthful. You can filter out 90% of the idiots by seeing which ones can appreciate girls who aren’t into subterfuge like that.

haha no, its not wrong.

but once you cool down and realize that it is not right either, you should talk to him and aplogize.

cwilbur's avatar

It depends on what he said. But let’s look at the evidence against it:

* You chose a screen name like “pinktiara,” suggesting that you’re a princess and proud of it.

* You admit that you think it’s wrong to be mad at him, but you do it to see if he cares about your feelings. This is classic manipulative behavior.

My conclusion is that your boyfriend is best off getting the hell away from you as fast as his legs can carry him and finding someone who’s not a manipulative princess. It will only make him happier in the long run. Also, you need to grow up and get over your own insecurities that make you behave in such a ridiculous manner.

It depends on why you have decided to view it as being angry at him for “no reason”.

Why do I say this? Well, because I have had boyfriends who did really questionable things and when I was hurt, they acted like I was overreacting. In order to keep the peace, I convinced myself that I was somehow wrong.

Looking back now, I realize that their questionable actions were good reasons to end the relationships. I should have left those times instead of trying to make it work. They were red flags that I chose to ignore and make excuses for by trying my hardest to put the blame on myself and let them have their way. That is one of the biggest mistakes I’ve made in past relationships and I’ve definitely learned from it.
