I am 25 now but when I was 19-23 I dated a guy who was 3 years older than me. He was my first boyfriend. I'm with someone else now.
I havent seen him in 2 years since we broke up but I was lying in bed and for some reason I used to think this was normal and i'll explain now.
He used to jokingly punch my inner thighs. Not as in a small light punch, but proper punch multiple times and then laugh whilst he did it and then afterwards would say "sorry, just got the urge".
He would do this at random times - whether it was midway through a movie or when I first came around to his house.
I suppose i'm posting this as i've scared myself by how neutral I reacted to this. So i'm really posting to vent at myself.
I would just tell him it hurts after he did it or tell him he left a mark and then I would laugh
I'm in a completely healthy relationship now so i dont know if i've just suddenly been hit with the thought of how weird it was.
The thing is, he wasnt violent in any other way, just this thigh punching.
I don't really know why i'm posting this in AIBU but I feel like this is one of the best threads on mumsnet for straight to the point comments.
And tbh i'm posting this to rant at my 19-23 year old self
