nahh dont see a problem with it really, but why would you tell your friends, of course they are going to take the piss out of romantic things you do with your girl
I think it's cute, and personally I'd see it as a chance to "look after" my boyfriend and make a fuss over him and care for him. Your mates are probably jealous that you have a girlfriend you trust enough to relax around.
man up mate, tell her to go make you a sandwich instead

nice friends you have there too, sound like right plonks.

I agree... I think it's really sweet when a guy likes that kind of thing, and I've gotta admit, I like making a fuss of my boyfriend and being affectionate in that kind of way toward him. I can't stand guys who do the macho crap and display no signs of intimacy/ affection, it's so outdated and pathetic. I like having a guy I can take care of as well as him taking care of me.

My mates keep telling me not to do that, because it’s weak or a p*ssy thing for a man to do. Do you (especially the ladies) agree? Because me personally I love coming home after a tiring day and just placing my head in her lap and let her stroke my hair... I find it deeply relaxing.LOL


Stop basing your opinions on what your mates tell you.
They may say your weak as pussy **** or whatever, but that means one of three things;
1. they enjoy punching their girlfriends instead of being stroked by them, are generally pathetic misogynists.
Find better friends
2. they are deeply jealous of you, because their girlfriends wont do that to them/dont have a girlfriend (probably have emotional problems associated with the chips on their shoulders) and are just going along with it not to look weak.
Come into School/6thForm/College/Uni/work with really ruffled hair, ask them if they are mad, bro?
3. They are just pulling your leg because they know how easily influenced you are
Tell them to **** off :tongue: or tell a them a really tall tale... my imagination is not firing ATM

I wrote poetry for a girl I fancied through msn once, you know what she did? She logged off. It wasn't even bad, it was pretty brilliant.. took a few hours to write.

What does that say? Women don't want you being affectionate or using your head, they just want a bag of muscles and some balls to bounce on. Stop it mate. You'll end up getting hurt.
I don't see the problem in it. Sometimes I'll rest my head on my girlfriends shoulder, sometimes hers on mine. It's not as if you cannot be affectionate towards each other.

But..I wouldn't exactly be discuss the fact I rested my head on my girlfriends lap and she stroked my hair anyway...because I don't really discuss the inner workings of relationships, and most people don't, since others usually find it an annoying/awkward line of conversation.

If that gets you off COOL
I don't agree with that. If it relaxes you, then just go with it

I think that's fine but I find it a tad odd that you felt the need to create a thread about it...

I've had a few guys who liked doing that. It's cute :tongue: I love when my boyfriend comes home all dirty and worn out from work and curls up on the sofa with me.
I loved it when my boyfriend did that, if you like it then do it!

Seriously OP who cares what other people say?? Putting your head on your gf's lap doesn't damage his credibiltiy as a male.
do whatever the **** you want, who cares what your friends think
