Ladies, if you tell your significant other that something they keep saying bothers you, and they continue to say it anyway on multiple occasions, that’s not “just joking” anymore.
Imagine having a normal conversation about food or a restaurant and you mention, “Remember when we had pasta from there?” and his response is, “Must’ve been your other nigga because it wasn’t me.”
The first time may be brushed off as a joke. But after you express that you don’t like comments like that, and he still repeats them, it starts to feel disrespectful, passive aggressive, and unnecessary. What would you do next?

I would politely ask him yo leave

People will continue to cross boundaries as long as there’s no consequences.
I’d explain again that I don’t like it and I’ll take him saying it to me again as blatant disrespect and a desire to end our interaction. If we’re talking on the phone I’m hanging up. If we’re hanging out, that’s the end of our date and I’m getting in my car and heading home.
If after a few times he still won’t stop then another conversation needs to be had on whether he really wants to be with me and if he does why he won’t stop doing something that makes me uncomfortable?
