Does a Man always want to Smash when he pays a Woman a compliment? I told Hubby that I was called Beautiful by a Colleague and he immediately asked me : Who wants to F%*@ you? I personally can appreciate a Good Looking Man without lusting over him.

No, if I told my fiance that someone called me beautiful he wouldn't act like that. Maybe your husband has jealousy issues? My fiance would just say he agree's, he wouldn't get all hostile or bent out of shape..0

As a man, I can say no definitively for myself. But that may be true for some.
Assuming that all men want to get with a girl just because a compliment is paid is a little bit paranoid IMHO.
side note, ugh, did you just use the term smash? That's very Jersey Shore of you0 -
My husband would joke around about it, but he wouldn't give a crap. My sister's husband, however, is even threatened by my cousin-in-law who is 10 years her junior...
Edit: Thank you, above poster, for clarifying the origins of 'smash'. Hahaha0 -
No - I will tell someone they are looking good and it doesn't relate to me trying to 'smash' them, as it was so eloquently put lol
I have a friend who is pretty much like a sister to me, and I'd seen a picture she was posted in on fb where she looked really good so next time I saw her I told her she was looking hot in the pic. Pretty sure she didn't take it any way other than I meant it.0 -

Lol...it's actually Smush!! Haha
All seriousness that does sound like some jealousy issues on your husbands part...0 -
Of course the guy wants to "Smash it" But your man shouldn't get all crazy, unless you act on it :drinker:
All of the ladies I work with look like Lee Haney...So I have no issues at my office0 -
My hubby only flys off the handle if he hears that anyone treated me badly... I think he'd just agree if I said I'd received a compliment... Our meeting was through a difficult time though so any potential trust issues had to be resolved immediately. As a result, we've been lucky to never have any insecurity between us.0

Its the other way around. If you give a guy a compliment then he thinks you want to 'smash' him lol0

That's so true. I've also found that if you try to catch up with someone you haven't seen in years you want to 'smash' him.0 -

Not true, if a girl compliments me I'll take it as a compliment, nothing more. Unless she is making it clear that it means something more!0 -
My husband would just ignore me. But, you have my sympathy for the way your's is treating you.0

I compliment my girl friends on Facebook all the time. Sometimes I will even compliment them again in person. To me, it helps them feel reassured about how they look and boosts the self-esteem a bit more. Does my wife get jealous about it? No. We've been happily married for12 years. Some issues existed in the very beginning. But, now, we poke fun at each other all the time. "Hey, honey, I am going out with so-and-so to have dinner, okay?" And this so-and-so happens to be very beautiful and married. Meanwhile, the response I get is: "Okay. Just make sure your come home TO ME." Giggles follow as I sit my butt down to work with my kids on projects or catch some kid TV.0

I have to say that you really DO look good. (just complimenting :laugh: )0 -
it's the caveman in them - most men think that their woman is their property and nobody else should look at it, touch it, think about it or anything else with out them being able to pound their face in.
I guess the real question is, why are you telling your man that another male is complimenting you? I'm all about honesty, but if you know your guy is like that you shouldn't ruffle his feathers.
Yea but it's funny if you have a jealous partner to wind them up. If they're gonna be like that, then you should at least be able to get a bit of entertainment out of it.
I used to love it with my ex when I would tell her and she'd get all huffy, and then next time she got a comment she'd tell me to try and make me jealous and I'd just say "nice one".
Screw it, she's coming home to me, why should I be jealous that other people appreciate how hot she is - if they didn't then I'd have a problem!0 -

Oh please, that's definitely more than just a compliment haha0 -
i know from my experience not all men are that way. but i tend to find the ones who are wicked jealous and they dont see that they are... the guy im with now if anyone has anything complimenting to say to me i either want them or they want me... personally i think that is juvenile seeing as how hes 30 years old. come on and grow up by now...0

Nah...Half the time I just complement women to make their day and/or to watch em squirm. I think it's cute...and it's effortless on my behalf. You can find at-least SOMETHING about just about anyone to complement.
'Hey you have really pretty teeth.'
'Your hair is beautiful.'
'That outfit looks perfect on you.'
Good vibes, ya dig? ;]0 -
oh how I love these smart alleic comments on this forum! there's always at least 3 or 4 of them. lol
my hubby can get jealous at times, I'm like one of the other posters, I wouldn't tell him anything that would "ruffle feathers".0 -
Not always it could just be a compliment , e.g I told my roommate yesterday that she looked good in a dress , doesn't mean I want to "smash" her though :laugh:0

Hi All,
Hubby is very secure and I have only seen him display jealousy twice in 2 years. I think He can be a tad jaded because of his line of work : Police Officer. We often mention compliments, etc to one another. I personally like to hear that another woman wants my Hubby. I find it comical when he realizes another woman is flirting with him because he is normally clueless about these things.
The Term "Smash" was used long before Jersey Shore started airing. The show simply made it mainstream.0 -

As soon as Jersey Shore start doing something, that is your indicator that it is time to stop...0 -

Yeah, my husband compliments me every day. I love it. He does it for his 'girls' too. He is very complimentary. I in turn also compliment my girlfriends just 'cause they deserve it. Good vibes and all that..... :flowerforyou:0 -
I don't know. I think saying "you look nice today" or "cute outfit" may be OK, but "you look beautiful" is a bit over the top for a professional work environment.0

No. But depending on the words used, frequency of the compliments, how he States them he may want too, I mean you are smoking!! I got a bunch of hot sexy married pals on here but I temper my comments to them out of respect to them and the institution of marriage. But a lot of guys could care less about you being married.......calling you beautiful is kinda on the innocent side.0

Yes. Always.0

Thanks Dave. I think Hubby is a tad jaded . . . I think Hubby is right in this instance : I gave another colleague a hug in front of him and he said "Hey, I never get hugs." I then gave him a Hug and he turned to my colleague and bragged that his hug lasted longer. SMH! I think he knows that if he said anything less respectful I would call him on it.0 -
no, i don't think so deahva... BUT i have been accused of being a bit naive at times when it comes to this subject... so let me sit back & see what the peanut gallery has to say...
oh, & i don't watch jersey shore, so i had no idea "smash" had gone mainstream :laugh:0
