34 Behaviors That Creep People Out Now But Once Were Considered Romantic, As Pointed Out Online

I currently have a customer at work like this, keeps trying to break my resistance to his multiple advances. No, it's not endearing. I'm paid to be nice to you, not paid to accept harassment. It makes me like him less every day, not more.

That has ALWAYS been straight up harassment. Writers wanted drama/conflict to beef up their thin plot lines and added these scenarios in...and groomed people into thinking it was romantic.

Everytime a guy did this, I only went out with him when he'd worn me down, and every time it was a huge mistake. If you say no at first, you have a good instinct about him. Stick to that!

I've known too many of these "persistent" guys.

it was harassment back then, too.

Cute story but not creepy as the title said.

Ha ha! Did you stop and think that in an accident, if you were incapacitated she would bot be able to get out of your car?

chivalry is not a bad thing

Hate to tell the OP, but getting that handle fixed would have been cheaper in the long run than the two kids.

Oop-

I would have smacked my now husband if he'd done that (and that's 25+ years ago). I'm not now, nor was I ever, property to be handed over.

I did that. Not really a question as such but as a courtesy - we'd already decided we were going to marry and there wasn't anything he could have done about it anyway. Nearly 30 years ago now...

Depends on where, in what culture ppl are living/raised/born into. Would be strange for me too, but I know there are different cultures, different rules out there. So strange too me will be perfectly normal for others.

I think that goes back to, and made more sense when, women often married younger than they usually do now.

I don't see anything wrong with this. It is a sign of respect to my Father

The Flintstones did not live in a cave.

You have clearly never been to Burnley, England have you? That would count as sophisticated there.

"Aww Fred!! How many times have I told you not to fart under the sheets!"

That actually didn't really happen in real life, at least in prehistoric societies. That's aside from the fact that only a small number of lucky ancient humans lived in caves.

Lol lol. Lol lol.

Also that stance bro-ham is using in the photo? The "trap her between yourself and the wall by leaning against it" thing? Not cool. Don't do that.

The reply "I'm really complimented, but no thank you." is one of the better ones.

"Sit Ubu Sit, Good Dog"

The "obey" part wouldn't have ever been problematic if it had been applied EQUALLY, because then it would have implied obeying and respecting each other's wishes and boundaries. But no -- for men it was "love, honor, and cherish" but for women, "love, honor, and obey". And that's where it falls apart. One-sided obedience is a kind of servitude, and cherish in that case becomes the way one cherishes a possession.

When my wife & I hear the part "Thru better or for worse" we chuckle. We have been thru an incredible amount of hardship, sickness, health issues, war, deaths in the family, etc together for over 30 years. Without those hardships, we would not have the bond we have today. I have friends that with the first sign of struggle, their marriage has fallen apart.

👀

Yeah...my vows did not include this part.

Someone tried that with me, out of the blue, I'd never even seen him before, not even for a minute, suddenly he tried grabbing me. Thank god for my reflexes, I grabbed him by the throat and pushed him away fast before his face could touch mine. Then I told the bar-crew and he was thrown out of the club. Disgusting behaviour.

Particularly awful when they hold your head so you can't break it off.

That famous picture of a sailor kissing a nurse. That wasn’t a romantic picture. He just grabbed her and kissed her. She wasn’t happy

knee nutter. Sorry, couldn't help myself.

Excuse me! Can't you see I'm eating chips and onion dip!?

Oh, heII no!

creepy

Good old guilt and manipulation 👍

If it weren't for the heartbreaking parts of them as old people, this movie would've just been super generic and not memorable in the least.

Jump in the car and be that traffic!
