5 Reasons I like scaring the hell out of my boyfriend (and why he secretly enjoys it)

I have quite the obsession with scaring the hell out of my boyfriend. I hide in any little crevice I can just so I can jump out and spook him. There have been times when I've waited a half hour to scare him. Hey – you've gotta keep things interesting right? I'm sure this isn't the kind of “interesting” that most couples would think of. Maybe you're thinking that I'm a bit cruel. Well, maybe I am but he has picked up on this little hobby of mine and joined right in. It's safe to say that it's kind of our thing now. I personally get pure satisfaction out of scaring my boyfriend and here's why.

1. It makes me laugh

Obviously, it makes me laugh. I don't know what it is about scaring him that makes me laugh so hard, but I love it. Growing up, I always got joy out of scaring my friends, and now my boyfriend is my victim – muahhaha! I think scaring him makes me laugh more than anything else in the world.

2. He secretly loves it

He might complain every single time I do it, but I know he loves it. It always makes him laugh and sometimes he probably pees himself – but hey, he loves it… I think. I mean, he's getting attention and men love attention.

3. It bonds us

It's our “thing”. We like to scare each other when the other one least expects it. I love little things that him and I do together. Plus, it's kinda fun to see who gets the better scare.

4. It's playful

I have a very weird and awkward way of flirting. Basically, I “harass” the person I'm flirting with, as my boyfriend would say. I pick, poke, tease, and annoy. It's very mature of me. I'm a playful flirt and scaring the hell out of my boyfriend is my way of connecting. That is all.

5. He's vulnerable

I also love to see my well-put-together boyfriend show a vulnerable side. He's a very serious guy that has to prepare and plan for anything. It doesn't hurt to catch him when he least expects it. You've gotta keep your guy on his toes!
