DH taking the piss out of my glasses

[BapFaced]

Name change as DH knows real username. I’ve known for years I’m supposed to wear goggs but I feel so self concious in them that I don’t. Anyway after suffering constant headaches and worsening vision I admitted defeat and went to opticians. I knew DH would take the piss and I can handle a lot of banter so I’m so self conscious I don’t think he realises. It’s constant.
“You’ve got something in your eye, not that one ... not that one ... the 4th one”
“Stop making a spectacle of yourself”
“Get your windscreen wipers on”
“There’s bird shit on the window ... no not that one, that one !” (Spits on glasses)

I’ve told him to pack it in now, I’m getting where I just don’t wear them when he’s around and he still takes the piss putting his hands over my eyes to firm glasses etc

As I said we do have a “piss taking/banter” type relationship but I’m taking this quite personally. AIBU to tell him he’s upsetting me or am I being a baby?

"I came when I first had GLASSES"

Blimey, Huggingslothsallday! I've never found them that exciting. Were you still in the opticians at the time?

OP, how does he react when you tell him to pack it in? I bet he gets shitty and huffy. Spitting at you is a big red flag. Do you stand up to him, or is it not worth the bother because he gets nasty?
DH and I take the piss and say outrageous things to one another to laugh together at the outrageousness. We have a cracking laugh together and are also very kind to one another and if one of us doesn’t find it funny (rarely), we tell the other and get an apology and niceness.
You need to tell him to stop if it’s making you unhappy, and if his reaction to that doesn’t make you happy, you need to consider your quality of life and how you would like to be treated.

have you ever aaked yourself why you felt so self conscious about glasses that you actually let your health suffer rather than wear them? Sorry but thats not normal, maybe as a self conscious teenager but not as an adult.

Either you have teased him and made comments about his "goggs" and he's getting gis own back or he has picked up on your insecurity. Either way you both need to grow up and the spitting is awful.

I once went out with a guy who absolutely loved me in glasses, got him so turned on There are a lot of guys out there like that, tell him you'll ditch him for one of them if he carries on.

I'd cut his balls off and put them in a jar of pickled onions. Then call him Pickle Dick.

Your DH sounds like a cunt, what a catch.

Send him to old Lonely, I'll teach the fucking moron the meaning of banter. I'll also beat the shit out of him for free.*

Tell him to pack it the fuck in. I sit to a 19yo man at work and we bicker/banter all day, but if I ever got upset he would be horrified. And if I'm quiet he will ask if I'm ok and leave me alone

Well it's a good thing that it's nothing more serious than you having to wear glasses isn't it?

Just imagine the fun he could have if you had something seriously wrong with you.

These are the most unfunniest jokes ever

Thanks pigs. You've saved me the job of posting

I'd ask him if he realised he was being such a fucking twat about my glasses. And tell him to just stop because he was just being a twat. I might then ask him why he was being so mean about my glasses....he might point out that you've not been kind to him about his over the years.

And I'd call them glasses not goggs.

Christ, if that's the calibre of his "banter" you've got bigger problems that your vision. He sounds about as funny as a dose of the clap.

FriedEggs1 You're more than welcome

The word banter should be banned as it’s always being used to cover up bullying behaviour.
I wouldn’t tolerate this for a second.

My glasses cost £450 due to my poor eye sight. It’s not funny. Is he fat. Got a big nose. Cos it seems any aspect of him is available for picking. Is he 7. No sorry my seven year old would behave better.
