basically me and my buddy were joking around on Facebook saying quotes from that youtube video, "My New Hair Cut"

it's just supposed to be a stupid video of a guy that's a total d'bag.. Anyways, My buddy qouted something about "I'm going out, im getting some P**** tonight...my boys, they got the same haircut, there getting some P**** tonight"...

Then I respond to his qoute, and im like "not now chief, im in the f'n zone"

Anyways, my girlfreind saw these qoutes and thought i was joking around about going out and picking up girls... I didn't really imply that at all... we were just saying qoutes off the stupid youtube video..

Now i don't understand why she's so mad that I was explaining to her that we were just saying stupid qoutes, and didn't mean anything by it... and the fact she's seen the youtube video... My Girlfreind is 30.. i would think she would be more mature then that getting mad over something so petty....

Women think more with their emotions, so maybe she is reading something more into it then what you think it might be. Try talking to her without being upset to find out more about the issue. When you talk to her try to show empathy, and she might not be so angry.

I agree with Michele....yet, at the same time....LOL.

I've discovered that some simply do not share (what may be innocent and harmless fun and humor) as genuine humor.
Apparently, she is sensitive to such humor, especially when it directly (indirectly) relates to her personally.

Personally, (and with my sense of humor), I'd receive that for what it was....funny. However, that does not mean that it really is funny to her.
As Michele already mentioned, make another attempt at explaining it to her with a bit of empathy applied....ensuring her that your intentions were just that of random humor....and NOTHING meaningful outside of that.....mere play.
(Her age only tells me that she must surely be sensitive to such behavior....all the more reason to tread lightly with any future related play).

All the best & good luck.

All im gonna say is what may be something stupid to be mad about is something important to her so I would take her seriously and talk to her.

Maybe you need to try to understand WHY it hurt her so much to see that stuff on your page? If it is hurting her, it isn't stupid, and if you care, you will understand that and try to find out what it is that bothers her so much about that type of thing. Once you find out? Don't do it again.

I would expect her to be more mature too. Sounds like something else is bothering her. Maybe she's just anxious about dating you and pinning it on something stupid like your Facebook post.

If she is 30 yrs. old, maybe she is appalled at your posting such derogatory words on your page or whatever it is. I'm not into those social sites, but it seems like if you couldn't even post the words (using ***) they may be offensive to her as a female.

Those words are offensive to me & don't seem to hold women in high esteem but contempt...
