I’ve had that happen as like a light tap when I said something teasing them. I think it was a test the waters of “is it okay to touch?” kind of thing. There was never any heat behind it. I’d rather they do that if they’re into me than nothing.
Yeah no this is more forceful then that, semi regular slapping on the chest/face, punching, etc.
He’s never mentions anything about it so its been nothing more than me and my wife noticing and talking about it together but it just feels weird seeing it.
I didnt assume that it is, just that the risk is there. Do you assume that there isnt a risk of abusive behaviour if you see someone hit a supposedly loved one?
It entirely depends upon the circumstances. Also, if the person being hit was my brother, I think I would be able to judge his reaction well enough to determine if something was off.
My brother’s SO does this to him all the time, it feels so gross to me.

You should tell him that you noticed it and let him know you are a safe person if he needs help exit… if you are that ofc
Or maybe they just like to play rough.
In that case there is no harm voicing your support
Sure, I’m just saying that you shouldn’t assume that it’s an abuse situation.

I wouldn’t consider that flirting.
