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?

We'll see how it goes
Hopefully he won't make you snap and fart again.

So he didn't take your hobby seriously
He shouted oddly in a restaurant
He wakes you up in the night to ask you if it's ok for it to be the time it is
He made you snap and fart

Is there more? Why are you still debating this relationship?

I don't think I've ever reached the point of anger where I've snapped and farted before

Loving all the poems btw

Sorry op, this thread probably hasn't gone to plan. Hope u manage to sort things

Don’t worry I fart all the time, not just when I annoyed.

Still over here trying to work out what the OP meant to type that came out as farted...

Shared snapped and farted with my husband, we're both giggling like idiots. I'm sure the workman who's in today thinks we're nuts!

The instructor sounds like a complete prick though.

Dh and I are absolutely pissing ourselves at snapped and farted...what on earth were you trying I say?!

God, what do you do if he really annoys you, crap on his shoes?

Well Thanks a lot, I've just composed myself and then you go and let that one rip.

Why has OP not acknowledged that she snapped and farted?!

I am howling laughing!

What an unkind op. I really hope his opinion of you gets as low as you regard him and he runs for the hills.

Why on earth are you even with him?

I really want to know what the typo was supposed to be

I cant OP. i just cant. My boss has now asked me what has been so funny for the past 10 minutes. I dont know if i want to tell her, because i know her and she will start laughing and then we will all be in the dog-house with thge legal team who sit here. That has got to be the funniest typo ever.

OK - FWIW, i think you are just not compatible and i think he sounds a little strange - why does he wake up shouting your name asking if the time is alright? Do you really like him - what are his other good points?

Sorry, OP. But yabu and sound very demanding and high maintenance. Who cares what gym clothes he wears? I'd prefer that over right lycra and muscle vests and day of the week. Also, he sounds like a laugh and really unique. Is there anything about him you do like? He sounds the type that when he's put in awkward and uncomfortable positions he makes a joke to make himself feel better. It's also worth keeping in mind, he did this for you because he's clearly wanting to partake in something that you're interested in - even if it's not really his thing. Cut the man some slack OP and stop farting!

The instructor sounds like a complete arse tbh.

I've woken the baby I've laughed so much. I'm going to snap and fart next time my DH forgets to unload the dishwasher. Perhaps he will think again next time haha

Snapped and farted

There's my next username!

"There's my next username!"

Someone got there before you!

Sorry I got left behind at snapped and farted too. What were you trying to say? The toddler wants to know what is so funny and I've woken the baby laughing. Sorry, I thought I was a grown up.

I'm so sorry OP but was feeling shit & on verge of tears (I'm 12 days overdue & very uncomfortable), now I'm literally crying with the laughter in response to OP farting while DP giggles, and teacher gets mad

You should try it yourself might get baby moving along

SayNoToCarrots I love the way the op is ignoring her farting

Perhaps she has had enough of adults acting like giggling girls.

2good perhaps you could try snapping and farting - it might bring on labour

In all seriousness though, LTB. Don’t fart though.

Aeroflot.. would you like your child to be labelled and dumped by prospective partners then? I absolutely hate people talking about others 'being on the spectrum' as if it were a disease. We should be enbracing diversity and showing compassion, understanding and tolerance to those who function slightly differently, not 'running for the hills'.

Well I'm sure this can't be real but op for the sake of clarity, did you actually snap and fart? As in you got angry and lost immediate control of your sphincter muscle, or did you do something else alongside the snapping?

Enquiring minds need to know.

I cannot cope - snapping and farting hahhhaha 😂😭

Also OP , did it not occur to you your boyfriend might be offended and embarrassed by your farting?!!!
