Growling guy? So I didn't get very many answers last time so I'm gonna ask this again: I am a 14 year old girl and I have recently made friends with a guy who I thought was really cute and have a crush on. When we talk I can hear him growling. He doesn't open his mouth, it's just like this deep throaty sound coming from his throat. The first time he did it I went "what was that?!" And laughed, thinking that it was a joke but he just says nothing and walked away. I can hear him doing it in class (it's a very quiet sound but I sit right next to him). And it's not me that's causing it, I hear him do it around his friends too. Could it be some kind if habit or tick? His friends never mention it, maybe they know what it is because he only talks about it with close friends? What could this be????

Grunting, humming or throat-clearing are common tics that can be associated with factors like: medications, Tourette's, allergies, autism spectrum. Most commonly, though, a vocal tic is just an unexplained and temporary part of an otherwise normal childhood that he will grow out of. (See [Link](Mouse over link to see full location))
His friends have probably just accepted it as something he does. Someone has likely pointed it out to him before, too, which may be why he walked away when you mentioned it... People with tics often feel embarrassed about them. This article has good advice on how to behave toward someone exhibiting a tic: [Link](Mouse over link to see full location). ]
So what you have is a guy who basically, for lack of describing it better, purrs like a cat. I don't know of any humans who do that. It could be a subconscious action he is not aware he is doing and calling attention to it will just make him feel self conscious.
Our subconscious minds run a lot of things that our conscious mind doesnt have to give any thought to such as breathing, where we place our next step. It could be just that. If his 'growling is not disturbing any one including the teacher, then I wouldn't worry about it.
I will share that I have in my life come across guys or heard stories of those who make very strange sounds when having a climax. My own husband sometimes growls or roars like a lion. LOL. strange but true. Startled the crap out of me the first time but he's harmless. ]
