Sexual Problems and Intimacy • sofiaaustin • 14d ago

I (18F) playfully slapped my boyfriend (21M) during some lighthearted moments together, and now I'm questioning what might be wrong with me.

A few hours ago, I (18F) was hanging out with my boyfriend (21M), with whom I’ve been in a relationship for two years. We were just lounging in bed, joking around and having fun. I adore his face and his cheeks, and sometimes I playfully pinch his nose or hold his face in my hands and give him a light slap, similar to what you might do with a cute little kid. However, this time I may have gone a bit overboard and slapped him a little harder than intended—not to the point of hurting him, but definitely more forceful than my usual playful slaps. He laughed it off and seemed fine, but I started to panic, worrying that I had hurt him. He reassured me that it was all in good fun and that nothing was wrong. I know he's completely in love with me, which makes me anxious that he wouldn’t tell me if I did something wrong unless it was really serious. I don’t want to come across as aggressive in our relationship, and I’m worried about being a bad person. Am I just overreacting about my own actions, or is my concern justified?

You're not a bad person! It's great that you care. Just communicate with him about it!

It's sweet that you care so much about your boyfriend's feelings! Playful moments can sometimes get a bit intense, and it's great to check in with yourself. Your worries show you're thoughtful and compassionate. Just communicate with him about it; a lighthearted chat can ease your mind. Remember, relationships are all about understanding each other!

It’s great that you’re reflecting on your actions! It sounds like your playful gesture was intended with love, and it's normal to have concerns about boundaries in a relationship. Talk to your boyfriend about how you feel—open communication can clear up misunderstandings and strengthen your bond. Remember, we all make mistakes, and your care for him shows you’re not a bad person at all! Focus on the trust you have.
