Partner has been asking me to send him a naked photo of myself. We have been together for a year, we don't live together. He says I want "my photo" and brings it up a lot. I have been brushing it off etc and recently told him that I don't want to risk a naked photo of myself to get out in the public as you just never know these days.
His response was that if I don't trust him with a naked photo of myself then I shouldn't trust him enough to have sex with.

Aibu?

He sounds like a twat. I'd get rid.

Molone · 17/08/2024 20:10

This is such a dick move on his part. I’d dump and move on to someone who respects your decisions and doesn’t try and guilt trip you into doing things your uncomfortable with.

Time to find a new and better boyfriend. Wave bye bye.

No - is a complete sentence.

Loubelle70 · 17/08/2024 20:10

Yep hes a twat. Get rid. Hes a blackmailer too yuk. Dont send him pics.

MySocksAreDotty · 17/08/2024 20:10

Eugh why is he pushing your (sensible) boundaries like this?

Leafcutterantsarecool · 17/08/2024 20:10

Anyone who pestered and emotionally blackmailed me for sexual things I said no to (be that a photo, a particular act or whatever) would be my ex. Yuck.

He's right. You shouldn't trust him at all. Get rid.

Didimum · 17/08/2024 20:10

Dump immediately

Time to find a decent boyfriend.

TuesdayWhistler · 17/08/2024 20:12

"I've told you no. You ask again, pack up and fuck off"

And stick to it.

Coercive bullying cunt.

Exactly this.

Yogayogayoga · 17/08/2024 20:12

Dump and check his phone for photos taken without your consent. He clearly doesn't respect boundaries.

Treespopping · 17/08/2024 20:12

He’s a dick to ask and he’s definitely a dick emotionally pressurise you into doing something you don’t want to do. Please dump him.

Thunderboltandlightningveryveryfrightening · 17/08/2024 20:13

Absolutely agree with him and say it's best you split.. And mean it.

Cosyblankets · 17/08/2024 20:13

@Springstomind What are you doing with a fourteen year old boyfriend?

Montydone · 17/08/2024 20:19

ooooh noooooo! He sounds controlling and proprietorial over your body, this is an enormous red flag. I’m sorry to say that this sort of thing will get much worse if you move in/get married or have kids. The way he says he wants HIS naked photo without acknowledging your bodily boundaries and respecting your “no”. Would you want someone you love to be with someone like this?

Marine30 · 17/08/2024 20:21

‘My photo’ - sounds pretty presumptuous. Don’t like the fact he isn’t taking no for an answer. Not a good sign at all.

TomatoSandwiches · 17/08/2024 20:22

I bet he's got a collection of " His Photos " from previous victims, don't add yourself to the pile, tell him he is right, you don't trust him at all and dump the sleeze.

AzureBlue99 · 17/08/2024 20:26

Under no circumstances send him a photo. Just don't cave. I would dump him to be honest. He sounds immature and a bit shady.

EmeraldDreams73 · 17/08/2024 20:28

Ugh. No is a complete sentence. He sounds about 15.

autienotnaughty · 17/08/2024 20:35

No no no no no

1, considering your body to be his (the my photo comments)
2, asking for a photo in the first place (is he16??)
3, the pressuring you
4, the emotional manipulation (trust comments)

This is not a nice man, he doesn't respect you, he doesn't care about your feelings. This is not a person you want a relationship with

MyBreezyPombear · 17/08/2024 20:38

Tell him you want your picture first.

Then dump him and delete the picture (not that I'd expect him to send one).
