Boyfriend keeps talking about being good

Just a silly turn of phrase I think - he’s never made me feel infantilised or similar in daily life.

sometimes if I ask him for something or suggest we should do something he’ll make a comment like “if you’re good” with a playful emoji. Or will say “don’t be naughty”…

Context is that in real life he’s respectful and kind etc etc, we definitely are equals and he’s never given me any reason not to think this - it is a new relationship though of 2 months. It’s absolutely not a bdsm or control / power thing. Lol.

Would anyone be troubled by this or just a silly / flirty joke over message? Just musing.

I had an ex who used to say things like "Aren't we naughty" and "Ooh, I feel really naughty" during sex. In a baby voice.
Can't hear the word 'naughty' in any context now without feeling nauseous.

I think the fact something like this is bothering you probably means you’re just not that into him. You’re getting an ick from something that would probably be seen as flirting or a joke to others. Me and my husband often joke in this way, it’s our sense of humour.
