    Is this a good thing or a bad thing?

    If a girl says you're "like a teddy bear" is that good or bad? It sort of goes hand in hand with when girls call you "cute"? Is it good or does it mean "you're good, but not good enough for me"?

    Not everyone places the same meaning into every phrase...
    I really hate these type of questions.

    Well I would say my bf of 3 years is like a teddy bear, yet I'd say that about some of my male friends too, which basically means 'you're like a big brother I can hug'.

    Some girls could mean the whole brother thing, but she could also like you. It's hard to tell unless you give me more context.

    I would never call a guy I was interested in a "teddy bear". I think it means you're in the friend zone.

    Usually implies that he's a cuddly guy who watches movies with you while you rest your head on his chest and maybe have platonic sleep overs with him, too. Poor bastard. He's all cuddled up with you in bed and all you want is for him to platonically make you feel good about yourself....anyway, that's what "teddy bear" tends to inspire.

    A teddy bear is also genre of gay guy. Maybe she thinks you're a fruit?

    I think some girls DO like that "teddy bear" feeling... safe, warm, predictable...

    Relax... I'll need some information first. Just the basic facts - can you show me where it hurts?

    I see guys that LOOK like a teddy bear sometimes, the chubby and gruff ones with a lot of body hair but pretty much harmless. If you have a wild side, has this girl seen it? Maybe you should show it to her and you wouldn't be like a teddy bear anymore. Unless you don't mind being a teddy bear for this girl. Like, say, if you were castrated you might not mind. But you probably aren't
