Am I being harsh or not? These are a selection of comments from the past month or so…

-We were at a car dealership looking at a new car for me and he referred to SUV’s as ‘milf-mobiles’ saying that’s what the school run mums drive. The salesman we were speaking with awkwardly laughed.

-Made a ‘joke’ about an item of food he ordered when the waiter put it in front of him, ‘that’ll be the farts later then’. Just what you want to hear when about to eat.

-Used the term ‘front bottom’.

Any thoughts on whether I’m being harsh?!

None of those would bother me that much, but if it bothers you then just break it off.

Thinks he’s living in a crappy best man’s speech. Wouldn’t interest me.

How did you end up dating Jay from The Inbetweeners?

CarpetofBluebells · Yesterday 14:07

Nine months! You have no reason to keep this relationship!

He’s just not funny. I’d go as far as to say he’s unintelligent too. Far too embarrassing to take anywhere. Give him the heave-ho and do him a favour for the future by telling him why.

9 months - cut your losses and leave.

Careful.. you’ll be called a cool wife / girl in a min 😂

How much do you want a boyfriend. Personally I’d rather be single than with someone that talks about farts and front bottoms.

Oh good, then he’s just a boyfriend. Get rid!

MrsTerryPratchett · Yesterday 14:09

Mismatched senses of humour are a red line for me. Do you want to spend any more time awkwardly apologising for him?

Jeez, if you feel like this after nine months, it's not going to get better.

You're really not obliged to continue dating a man you dislike, you know. Just ditch him. He's not the man for you.

It's kind of baffling that you've ended up with him for as long as nine months, to be honest; I can't imagine he's undergone a complete personality change in the last few weeks so presumably you've known from the start that he's a nobhead.

Tangentially: I'd find the term 'front bottom' acceptable in a jokey/ironic context, because the absurdity of it would make me laugh, but if someone used that term during sex, I'd have dumped him before he'd even put his pants back on.

I'd rather become a nun. How the hell have you lasted 9 months!

Whosthetabbynow · Yesterday 14:42

How old is he? 14?

GelatinousDynamo · Yesterday 14:43

I'm sorry but I had to lol at 'milf-mobiles', I only knew the term 'mum tanks' until now 😂

Nevertheless, saying those things in front of strangers is not ok. Especially the farts would have spoiled my meal. Seems like he's getting comfortable with you and not holding back anymore.

PrettyLittleRose · Yesterday 14:44

How old are you both @Jenkiu ?

My friend in her 50s went on to marry a bloke she was seeing who said “look at the tits on that” as a woman walked into a restaurant we were in. Absolute Twunt

First one - meh. He's a bit juvenile.
Second one - gross. He's turned into an 8yr old.
Third one - disrespectful and the sort of things TRA/MRA say.

After 9 months I would recommend getting rid of your boyfriend (he's not a partner). He's horrible.

TheSmellOfSea · Yesterday 15:12

Blimey 9 months! Bin him.
