#mocked

I (mid-20s F) was on a video call with my boyfriend (mid-20s M) and was really excitedly telling him about my day. I was telling him a funny story about how I went out to dinner with my family and took my nephew to a play area. There was a ride that only had kids on it, but my nephew is very small, so I went to ask the ride operator if I could go with him.

The operator said something like, “Only 12-14 year olds.” As a joke, I replied, “Yeah, I’m 14.” She laughed, and I explained that my nephew was too small to go on his own and that I’d need to accompany him.While I was telling the story, my boyfriend laughed and said, “How embarrassing that she thought you were 14.” I immediately explained that she didn’t actually think I was 14 and that I had told her my nephew was small and needed me to go with him. Then he said something along the lines of, “There’s a difference between looking young and looking like a minor. A 14-year-old kid.”

At that point, I found myself weirdly defending and explaining myself. I even said that Why am I explaining myself so much and continued telling the rest of my story, but I couldn’t really get over it. A couple of minutes later I said, “I can’t even finish telling the story,” and went quiet and started using my phone. He laughed, and after that we didn’t really talk about it. Eventually he went to sleep The thing I’m confused about is whether I’m overreacting. Am I being too sensitive here, or would you also be bothered by this interactionf?

Reddit consensus: NOT OVERREACTING (NOR) (72% confidence)

Top comment: “NOR. Google negging.”

Notable comment: “NOR- Yeah, that sounds like a red flag. That was actually hilarious and you’re not overreacting. Idk why some men need to take you down a notch and almost like doing stuff like that. Don’t tolerate it and say how you feel, also shouldn’t feel like you gotta defend yourself it gets exhausting fast. I had to do that constantly with my ex and I realized he wasn’t even my friend anymore. We have two kids together and he still does weird crap like that and it’s like why??

When you explained, it’s like he doubled down and MADE the conversation into an insult Instead of laughing at the joke with you, he found a way to make it about something embarrassing or negative?? It’s like he’s taking a dig at you, playful teasing would make you laugh too, jic he pulls that card on you. Bad teasing leaves one person defending themselves or feeling self-conscious.”

TW: talks of past domestic violence.

Hi, using a throwaway account because I don’t want to be judged on my main!

I 25F, recently was on and walked out of a second date with 30M the two of us met on a popular dating app. We initially had a really first great date, and I was excited to go on a second date with him. We had our date at a cute cocktail bar, and I don’t know why, but sometimes when I drink alcohol, my voice gets a little nasally, and I can get a little bit congested. We were on our second drinks when he suddenly started mocking my voice.

I looked at him and said, “Did you just mock me?” He immediately said, “Oh, I’m sorry, I’m just playing.” To which I said, “I actually think that’s really disrespectful, and I don’t like that. I’m going to end the date now.”

I put $20 down to cover my drinks, got up, and left. He followed me outside apologizing, saying, “Come on, I’m really sorry. Don’t you think you’re being a little sensitive?”

Here’s where I’m wondering if I overreacted. In my early twenties, I dated someone who eventually became extremely abusive. By the end of our relationship he had strangled me, he had held a weapon to me, he would call me every horrible name in the book, the list goes on and on. But you know what? It started with the little things mocking me, mean teasing, putting me down in “joking” ways. I’m now of the belief that jokes are supposed to be funny, and I don’t think being mocked is funny.

However, when I was telling the story to my Best Friend, she didn’t say anything, but I could tell based on the look of her face that she thought maybe that I was overreacting. Since the date ended, he texted me a few times apologizing and asking for another chance. I got annoyed and ended up, blocking his number and he downloaded a texting app at least I think that’s what he did because he started texting me off a new number. Anyway, am I overreacting here?

Top comment: “Could have been the early signs of negging- but the more concerning move is his creating fake numbers to contact you.

Btw don’t block only mute cause if you need the evidence of harassment then cops want proof. They still won’t do much but it helps Nor”

Notable comment: “NOR.

It could have been an honest mistake. It could have been goofy tone-deaf teasing.

And it was recoverable right up to “don’t you think you’re being a little sensitive”. That would be when my expression changed to what my son calls The Grates of Hell Opening.

That’s when it stopped being “oops I made a dumb mistake” and became “I’m an asshole and your boundaries do not matter.”

I am SO PROUD of you for stopping that right then and there.”

Jesus Is Killed on a Cross

21 There was a man from Cyrene coming from the fields to the city. The man was Simon, the father of Alexander and Rufus. The soldiers forced Simon to carry the cross for Jesus. 22 They led Jesus to the place called Golgotha. (Golgotha means the Place of the Skull.) 23 At Golgotha the soldiers tried to give Jesus wine to drink. This wine was mixed with myrrh. But he refused to drink it. 24 The soldiers nailed Jesus to a cross. Then they divided his clothes among themselves. They threw lots to decide which clothes each soldier would get.

25 It was nine o’clock in the morning when they nailed Jesus to the cross. 26 There was a sign with the charge against Jesus written on it. The sign read: “THE KING OF THE JEWS.” 27 They also put two robbers on crosses beside Jesus, one on the right, and the other on the left. 28 [And the Scripture came true that says, “They put him with criminals.” 29 People walked by and insulted Jesus. They shook their heads, saying, “You said you could destroy the Temple and build it again in three days. 30 So save yourself! Come down from that cross!”

31 The leading priests and the teachers of the law were also there. They made fun of Jesus just as the other people did. They said among themselves, “He saved other people, but he can’t save himself. 32 If he is really the Christ, the king of Israel, then let him come down from the cross now. We will see this, and then we will believe in him.” The robbers who were being killed on the crosses beside Jesus also insulted him. — Mark 15:21-32 | International Children’s Bible (ICB) The Holy Bible, International Children’s Bible® Copyright© 1986, 1988, 1999, 2015 by Thomas Nelson.
