Am I overreacting

[blckcurt]

H came upstairs to run his shower. I was in the bathroom washing my hands and when finished, I jokingly wiped my wet hand on his face. He giggled and I thought all was good.

As I finished drying my hands, he grabbed the shower which was on full speed and directed it at me. I said please don't do that and he proceeded to do it again, at my face leaving me with wet hair, face a T-shirt.

I'm really quite upset about it and he says I'm overreacting. I asked why he did it when I asked him not to and he said "because it's funny".

I really don't think it is funny

So then it's okay for him to blast her with the shower, because he's annoyed?

Okay then.

OP - YANBU.
His response was not proportionate to a wet hand.

You both sound immature.

"Grow up. If you can't take it then don't start it."

This ^^

Yabu. Just get him back lol

I think it’s funny but he should have only done it once.

Ok - thank you. Seems I have overreacted

You haven't overreacted. That was a hugely over the top reaction to someone putting a wet hand on his face. Really humiliating and aggressive. Sounds like he's really annoyed about something, especially if he's also been ignoring you all day.

Maybe he was hoping you will join him since you were already wet

I think maybe the jokes from you aren't being taken as jokes and he sent you a very clear message that the wet hand pisses him off.

He isn't speaking to you? Why not ask him why and clear the air?

You’re being a baby OP. Can give it but you can’t take it. Get over yourself he was having a bit of fun (which you started!)

Wondered how long it would take before someone basically labelled her OH abusive. Utterly ridiculous.

I’d be pissed off, too. Some of you seem a bit addled, if you ask me - how can a wet hand on the face equate to being so soaked you’d have to change clothes, dry hair and reapply make up? The former is irritating, the latter is fucking annoying and a major inconvenience.

I would be really annoyed if I was wearing make up and had straightened my hair.

(I say ‘major inconvenience’ but as most MN folk seem to live in their pyjamas perhaps it would only be an inconvenience to those of us who wear actual clothes.)

What's going on with MN lately? OP, his reaction/response was way beyond tit-for-tat retaliation. Particularly as he appeared to be taking your initial prank as fun.
The light in the eyes and ignoring you is extremely disproportionate too.
Is this the first time something like this had happened?

There's been two occasions (a LONG time ago) where an argument has gotten out of hand. But nothing within the last few years.

I thought this was jokey though. It was the repeating when I asked him not to that annoyed me. And the light.

So I suppose, no, this hasn't happened before.

YANBU

YABU. He got carried away, but you started.
He isn’t abusive. He isn’t a bully. Stop overreacting

When you say gotten out of hand, OP, how?

Soaking you, shining a light in your eyes and ignoring you for a day isn't proportional to what you did OP.

Not unreasonable at all you told him not to and he did it again. He was an arse about it. It's only fun if everyone are enjoying themselves.

I haven't said anywhere that he is abusive or a bully....

In your OP you sit you wiped your wet hands down his face, a bit further it was just one wet finger

Sounds to me like you can give it but can't take it. He was having a bit of fun, he took it a bit further. I'd you cant take the heat, don't stand in the kitchen.

you state
