Am I a "caveman"?

That's what my friend just called me after I told him I didn't understand his behaviour. The whole scenario is the following:

My friend, his girlfriend (3 years together), his girlfriend's friend lying down on the grass in a park in Madrid. This friend of his girlfriend is quite attractive, for which my friend's girlfriend has been worried in the past, as apart from being really attractive, they get on very well and have quite a lot in common. Well, anyway, there on the grass he played with this girl in front of his girlfriend, tickleing, touching... etc., his girlfriend didn't seem to care too much, maybe because she's quite used to it now I suppose, but inside I bet she wasn't very happy at all (specially because of what I just said about both of them). So I just made a few comments about it, just joking and being serious at the same time and he went like "oh blbalba you are a caveman..>"

I don't know, what you guys think? is it me? I think that it's not normal that if he knows that his girlfriend thinks they like each other phisclly, get on very well... etc he does that. Yeah, he's faithful, he loves his girlfriend... etc, but I don't think that's the point, that doesn't stop his girlfriend to be worried seeing the whole scene. If my girlfriend did that in front of me (with the circunstances that I have mentioned before) I'd be really pissed off, but apparently I'm a cave man :frown:

Why's his relationship any of your business? She doesn't seem to care.

Well the girl and the boyfriend are good friends, so I can understand the playful tickling etc. But if I was his girlfriend I wouldn't be too happy with it if I'm being honest - I'd feel like a third wheel in the relationship if they're doing it right in front of me.

If his girlfriend didn't say anything though, then it's her problem.

Do you live in a cave? Do you converse in monosyllables? Do you eat raw meat and dress in bearskins? Then yes! you are a caveman! congratulations.

But seriously it's none of your business. I can see where you're coming from but if you get involved you'll just end up making trouble instead of preventing it.

It may not be any of your business, but it's not out of order to suggest that maybe it's insensitive for him to behave like that in front of her, especially given her expressed discomfort.

couple issues anyway, but I can still see your point :s-smilie:

It is weird for me too... Most of my female friends are used to "tickleing and touching" their friend's boyfriend. It's very common but I can't get it.

I think it's annoying...

Firstly, It's none of my business, in fact I don't care what he does or doesn't in his relationship, as if he'd have sex with her in front of his girlfriend, I don't care. It was just a simple observation, from what I think It's not very normal. And yes, it's only playing etc., but the background is that they both like each other phiscly, have a lot of things in common, this girl has admited she likes him (and vice versa) and a year ago his girlfriend asked him if he liked her, so somehow she's kind of worried, and under those circunstances, and knowing that, he still does it. I just wanted to know if you see it like the way I see it or not, that's all.

Well, this is going nowhere, I'll ask to close the thread.

You're in the right, don't take the caveman insult personally. You should get out a club and hit them for being stupid.
