Question: My significant other is texting and emailing a female friend (his, not ours) things like "are you naked, please say no because I couldn't handle that right now." He says it was a joke and promised to stop because it makes me uncomfortable but did it again.
VictorM's advice:
Forgetful fella, isn't he?
I can't blame you for being upset. The tone of their "joking" seems to have gone too far while at the same time being disrespectful to you. But sometimes guys just can't comprehend why certain things are a big deal with women.
Guys are like puppies. You can teach a puppy almost anything, but it requires patience and repetition. Just stay on top of it and emphasize how the "joking" makes you feel and that you consider it disrespectful. You may have to repeat the process a few times until he gets it.
