Embarrassed by boyfriend

[DogDmor]

Been seeing someone for around 3 months. We get in we'll but he's quirky, which is fine - well I thought it was. Sometimes I'm starting to think he's just plain odd.

He's overweight and said he wanted to get fitter so I suggested he come along to my karate class. He did and I ended up mortified. He wore scruffy old jogging suit bottoms with paint on them and a massive baggy t-shirt with Harry Potter on. Whenever instructor showed him something he giggled. Instructor is hard arse, old school - I've known him for years and knew he was going to react badly. After 3 or so giggling moments and DB stood in weird positions and flapping his arms around like a little girl instructor said "what are you giggling at? Are you a girl or what? Do you have something wrong with you?". Everyone was looking. DB started stuttering and instructor carried on with "you know this is karate and not ballet don't you? Are you in the wrong class?". DBs face went bright red. I was mortified and just wanted to hide. Another female instructor said "alright, it's his first day" so instructor said "but what's he giggling at?". Anyway later on instructor came over to me and said "where the hell did you find him? Is he one of your patients or something?" I was so embarrassed I just said "he's a neighbour".

After the class I asked DB why he kept laughing. I'd warned him beforehand about the instructor. He replied "it was funny, I thought I looked silly!" So I said "you did, why did you act like that? It's a class full of martial artists, nobody else was acting like that" do he looked embarrassed and said "I don't know" so I said he shouldn't come again as instructor will have it in for him now. He got upset and said "but I like spending time with you" so I snapped and farted and said "well you embarrassed me, I've been going there for years and now I don't want to go back because of you, find your own hobby".

Anyway this isn't an isolated incident, a couple of weeks ago he embarrassed me in a cafe shouting and making a scene. In private we get on really well but in private he mortifies me.

He still wants to come to karate with me tonight. AIBU to tell him I don't want him there?

Doesn't sound a good match to me... Poor guy.

I've been sick in bed for the last week and can honestly say this is the first real smile I've cracked in all that time

Snapped and farted, I am crying!

Going against the grain, I would feel very cross if I invited someone to attend a serious hobby and they behaved disruptively.

For many people karate is a serious sport requiring discipline and respect. Mucking about can get someone hurt.

I see that people are calling the instructor horrible, but I have never had a sensai who would tolerate disruption or disrespect of any kind.

SAF: the stage right before you LTB

WhoWants2Know I'd say using sexist language is pretty disrepectful

I dont appreciate the little girl comment in the OP. Fed up with people using it as an insult.

Dump him. It's really not hard. 3 months. just a bf. move on. do you fancy your karate instructor?

I don't like the 'girl' remarks, but the boyfriend is a right gobshite. Nothing in this relationship for the OP but lots more embarrassment. He doesn't know how to behave appropriately, he's a pain in the hole.

I have IBS

I have just fainted. I can’t anymore OP. I have tried all afternoon. I have to leave this thread as my jaw muscles ache. I’m so sorry I cannot be of help.

I see that people are calling the instructor horrible, but I have never had a sensai who would tolerate disruption or disrespect of any kind.

You can no tolerate disruption or disrespect without becoming sexist and disrespectful yourself though, surely?

Finally managed to read the full thread and it just got funnier by the second. Is this going to be the new thing folk say to prove they are long timers?

Pom bears, naice ham,yoni, snapped and farted...🤣🤣🤣

DB = DEAR BROTHER

I haven’t RTFT

I can’t. I’m on a train with laughter tears rolling down my face from page 1.

Placemark for later.

Sorry if the tone has soured/moved on etc.

I have snorted with laughter SO many times reading this thread. Thankfully no farts have escaped.... yet.

This is too much Thanks for cheering me up, it's just what I needed although I do have certain images in my head now probably funnier than the reality parp! 😂

I’m weeping here. ‘Snapped and farted’? May we have a diagram please?

I see that people are calling the instructor horrible, but I have never had a sensai who would tolerate disruption or disrespect of any kind.

Respect is earned, and you'd never get any from me for using "girl" as an insult and humiliating a narvous newbie. Also, the BF was hardly going to hurt anyone by flapping his arms around, ffs.

Yes, picture or it didn't happen.

On second thoughts...

What is this narvous newbie of which I speak? Nervous, I meant nervous

I genuinely can't remember when I belly laughed like that last.
My toddlers have told me to be quiet and stop laughing 😂 🙈

If by some chance this thread is real - you sound ashamed of him... the BF is definitely better off without you, and vice versa... end it sooner rather than later, sounds like he has low self esteem and you farting at him probably doesn't help. 😁

Is it a bit like the bend and snap from legally blonde?

But smellier and more angry?

Snapped and farted 😂😂🤣🤣

He's not going to do your IBS any good if you fart every time your angry at him is he.

Oh FFS I'm dying these comments are too much 😂😂😂😂😂 & sorry OP but your updates have just made it funnier !! I can't fucking cope 🙈😂😂😂😂

You don't sound very pleasant OP.

If you don't like the guy then just end things with him, don't carry on with him, while being really quite mean and unpleasant to/about him.

He may be a bit eccentric, and there's nothing wrong with that - but you seem uptight (although not in the rectal control region, clearly!) so you're probably not very well suited. He is what he is, you won't change him, and it's unfair to try.

I'm literally crying with laughter at snapped and farted. I can't see the screen
