... comments he makes about me feel like an attack on my values and they persist daily, to the point where our children mirror this behavior
DEAR AMY: My husband has always had a creative and witty sense of humor, and we have spent many hours in our decade-long marriage laughing until our eyes water. I love the fact that he has the ability to make people laugh.
Examples of his humor are: He will pretend he’s limping, dragging his foot behind him and groaning – this started over two years ago when I was briefly hobbled by a broken foot. Honestly at this point I don’t think it’s funny. Those and other comments he makes about me feel like an attack on my values and personality and they persist daily, to the point where our children mirror this behavior. Now they seem to feel it is appropriate to joke in the same manner.And where does this behavior come from? True teasing fun, or deep-down insecurity?DEAR NOT LAUGHING: Nothing about these comments is creative, witty, or even classifiable as humor.
And using a slur directed at you or anyone else is nothing but low-brow cruel bullying. This is not teasing – it is using a verbal taser to disrespect others, wound you and to put you down.
