I Am In a Taken In Hand Relationship

Nervous Laughter... Am I the only 1 who laughs when I am nervous? I laughed when I am uncomfortable, when I am mad, When I want to say something really rude. I think it is just my of protecting my emotions.

I do not mind doing this with other people. Because in a way it can call me down. But, with my husband I feel like I am being rude and disrespectful. He will tell me to calm down. And I will get a nervous laughter going or start to chuckle and he will just look at me. Then I will say stop looking at me like that. I get very very uncomfortable.

I want so badly to submit to him whenever he tells me too. Even when he tells me to just breathe. I should be able to say okay sit back take a few breaths smile be happy again. But when my mood is spiraling, I just look at him and laugh. He knows I am NOT laughing at him. I normally say I hate being a nervous laughter. He never says anything about it. He just looks at me and tells me to calm down.

I am contemplating asking him to help me with this. But only when I do it to him. Because I have found in some situations with other people it actually does calm me down after a minute.

Is anyone else like this? Do you think I should ask him to help me with this? Do you also think this is disrespectful?

I don't know. I just wish I could say yes sir or yes and sit a minute and think. But I don't. The only thing he has said it is do you need to go sit in time out for a. minute?

One of my girls has this. When she is in trouble she has a nervous laugh. She doesn't think it is funny, she is just nervous.

What do you do about it? Does she hate that she does this? I can't stand it. When I do it with other people im fine. But when I do it to mike I get mad at myself more for doing it when I shouldn't. If that makes sense.
MasterLee
Nothing. I don't mind it much. I feel if it her way of coping, so be it.
MasterLee
Why do you hate it?
SilencedShy · 41-45, F
Simple enough I guess. I guess I feel like by my laughter im treating this like a game or role play. And its not a game. I don't know. I just don't want it to happen.
MasterLee
Nah, it is just the way it is. Honesty is best.

Because it feels disrespectful. Like im not taking him serious. I would rather I shut my mouth when spoken to vs laugh.
MasterLee
Well, if you feel you are being disrespectful, that is one thing. However, it is like being upset you have the hiccups.

Im not intending to be disrespectful. I just feel like it looks that way. And its a quality about myself I do not like. And is something that can be changed. If your really dissapointed in your "girl" and she's laughing as your being serious. That dosnt annoy you?
MasterLee
Different kind of laugh and I know why she is doing it so the context is important.
