When he does something I don't like, I tell him. But after I tell him, he keeps doing it until i get ready to explode. I have yelled and jumped up and down before. Now I just leave the room. What can I go to get him to respect me when I ask him not to do something?

Some of you are so mean. I am not a control freak!!!! Someone answering made me realize that his dad is the same way. He likes to bother people to show that he cares about them. I guess I can just look at it as him wanting to spend time with me or show me he loves me and not see the surface as him trying to annoy me.

My dad and ex-husband are exactly like this. They enjoy getting people worked up and annoyed. There's probably not much you can do about it to change him. I've found the fastest way to get them to stop is to not let what they're doing get to you. If you don't mind and aren't getting annoyed then it's no fun for them. IMHO this behavior is a part of who they are and you aren't going to change that but rather must learn to live with it. I don't think it necessarily means he doesn't respect you though. If you feel it's causing a big enough problem however try and have a serious discussion with him or try marriage counseling.

All men can act like that pain in the a-- little brother at times, or that 7 year old from grade school. What you do is step down to there level, and get even. It sounds childish I know , but that's what they respond to. For instance if you come by my house during a session of those childish games, you will find his favorite toy, on the lawn for the neighbors to see. He hates to be embarrassed so, the game quickly stops. Find his weakness, what ever it is, maybe it's just inviting mom over for the weekend, another(killer) remedy.

Well it sounds to me like your husband is two years old. If you totally ignore him and move on to something else he will get bored with trying to get your goat. Maybe you should tempt him with a cookie and a babie bottle when he starts in on you. Or go buy a baby rattle and shake it in his face and tell him if he wants to play that you bought him a new toy. Either way there is many options that you can take on his behavior. Don't get irrated get even.

I dont know. My ex husband was like that. To me its being imature. If I guy wants your attention why doesnt he just say baby I need you right now? Why do they have to play games? Its not like we are going to say - go away I dont want u - I think he needs to grow up a little bit and start respecting you as a human being.

Men are crazy crazy things!!! My dad used to drive my mom UP THE WALL just being goofy. It was a game for us when I was little. She would get so annoyed and yell so loud if we were doing something that we knew would make her banana's! I'm not saying your like this..or short tempered like my mom...but it's just life. try not to take it too serious. My dad could be extremely annoying to my mom, but he taught me how to be laid back. He knows it drives you nuts...but he is doing it to just get to you..probably like you said...to show some affection. Take it in stride and just laugh with him.

Some guys think its fun to irritate you. Here's what you do: find something that really irritates him and do it to no end. Seriously. Fart in his face if you have to. Be relentless. He will not get the picture about how serious you are until you fight fire with fire. Put an end to this now before you have a lifetime of misery.
Oh - and no nookie on days he does that.

Do you remember the younger years when the boys would pick on you just to find out they really liked you, no different now. This is just his way of showing you he loves you. Truthfully!

You sound like a control freak. Why don't you just leave the poor guy alone. Sounds like you're the one who doesn't respect him and give him space to be himself. Why don't youjust leave the room before you open your huge control freakish mouth?
