I always feel like my boyfriend's jokes are mocking 🍩🤦♀️
So, picture this: my boyfriend and I have been together for 8 months, and we both like hiking—though I prefer the scenic kind, and he’s all about the challenge. Last weekend, halfway through a short hike, I started feeling hungry and picked up the pace. He noticed and joked, “Maybe I should put a donut on a stick to motivate you.” I know he meant it as a joke, but I’ve told him before not to make comments about my diet or poke at my insecurities. I’ve worked hard to get healthier, and I’m proud of my progress, but his comments sting.
It’s not just about the donut—he’s made remarks before, like when I ate a cheese danish during an online exam. I’m frustrated, confused, and honestly, a little angry. Am I overreacting? How do I get him to really understand how much this hurts without blowing up? I just want to feel supported, not judged. Have you ever felt like your trust was shaken by little comments like these? Let’s talk. 😤🍩🙄
