Open Eyes thanks alot, that's what I keep saying to myself too whenever i find myself asking " is this normal for someone at this age?" i say well you dont know where he come from, and it did happen, whether it's normal or not, it happened, what difference would it make if it's normal or not ..
i guess i'm just jealous that i didn't have a colorful past and so im taking it out on me

It sounds to me like you have been very sheltered and possibly raised where you were taught of this kind of behavior is very bad/evil.

Well, there are some things you are not considering in this picture too. This girlfriend could have been exposed to seeing a younger brother running around naked, or maybe she babysat children where she saw little boys exposing themselves. So, in that alone it would be understandable that what this guy did may not have traumatized her the way you think it should have. Also, there is a lot of influence when it comes to exposure and nudity that is expressed in advertising and main stream movies as well. So, it sounds to me like you have been sheltered and not been exposed to a lot of this.

Truth is "yes" there are guys that have no qualms about exposing themselves. And this girl was not shocked but she clearly remained calm and said, "do not do this", and when she realized this guy was not going to stop this behavior she stopped seeing him. Remember, it was not as if he was doing this every time.

For you to obsess about this like you are is so unhealthy for you, you have to take some time and study human behaviors and realize that human beings most definitely are sexual beings and can actually do strange things like this. Actually, when my daughter was only in kindergarten she was friends with a little boy that lived on our street and one day (and I watched him do this myself) he was down the street and turned around and said to her, you know I am important, I have this, and he pulled down his pants exposing himself. Well, I do have to say that caught both me and my daughter off guard and she did cry and was upset so I had to help her get over that. I also did call his mother, but I think this boy had seen something his parents were not aware of that encouraged him to think this was important to expose like he did.

So, we are ALL just human beings, primates, and while we are intelligent, we are still very much prone to practicing primate behaviors which includes being "sexual beings". This is certainly not something to contemplate suicide over or obsess about where you keep allowing this to traumatize you.

She described this guy as a jock too, well, these guys can run around naked and act crazy in the locker rooms. They can get very pumped up hormonally as well being that they are so physically active in sports too. Actually at age 15 guys can get very hormonal and did you know that at age 18 is at the height of the hormonal urges in human males? This is ALL in the nature of how we are designed as a species. That being said, some males take longer to develop than others. Perhaps you need to spend some time learning about human "nature" more so you are not traumatized by it so much.
Thanks for this!
