Why is he taking the piss out of me

[Libzreal]

My partner was laughing at me for taking the vaccine. There’s a family bbq taking place tomorrow and I’m not sure if I want to go due to Covid. Most people there won’t have been vaccinated. I’m really offended that he was laughing that I’ve had the vaccine to a friend of his. I’m appalled actually.

This is a relationship issue, rather than a Covid one.

Because he's an idiot and I would tell him so.

Yeh maybe.

You can tell him you'll be more adult than him and won't laugh if he ends up in intensive care begging to have it after all, like a good few people have.

GlendaSugarbeanIsJudgingYou I’m really offended by this. He chooses not to be vaccinated and I accept that. His choice but I’m upset he would make fun of my choice

I would be offended too.

He's not laughing because he actually finds it humorous he's trying to make you feel bad about yourself.

Does he often belittle you?

No not usually. He may be fed up with my being cautious about Covid. I have my views about his choice but I leave him be.

You are right that you both have free will, but he is a twat to laugh at and disrespect your very sensible choice to take the vaccine. I would either take the opportunity to pack his bags and change the locks whilst he attends his family Covid party, or go along smug in the knowledge that you are the least likely in the group to end up in hospital should one of the attendees be carrying Covid.

As someone else said this isn’t about covid it’s about your relationship. I would look into how happy you actually are with him and your relationship as a whole.

I don’t think this is about Covid either. I wouldn’t be making barbed comments about him ending up in intensive care as per a PP.
You’ve made a perfectly valid medical decision - one that most of us have taken - and he’s belittling you and trying to make you feel and look stupid in front of his friends. This doesn’t sound like a nice man.

DH and I are vaccinated. If he had decided not to I would have respected his decision because I respect him and his right to make his own decisions. He doesn’t respect you.

I'd tell him outright how offended you are that he'd mock you to a friend. It's disrespectful regardless of what the situation is.

My cousin chose not to have the vaccine because "his principles" (no further explanation ).
He, his wife and two small children now have quite bad cases of covid. The wife had had her first jab but obviously not the kids. He's a total moron, it may not surprise you to hear.

Well done on getting jabbed and I'd avoid places that have a higher risk of covid tbh.

He’s a plonker x
