Have I lost touch with reality or was this a nasty thing to say?

I split up with my partner a while back but we've been giving it another go these past few weeks.

I think it might be a mistake but that is another story.

Anyway, this morning he said to me that if he was out drinking with his friends he couldn't guarantee that he wouldn't have sex with another woman.

Obviously this was not welcome news and I asked him what on earth was talking about. He said if he got really drunk he wouldn't be able to stop himself. However, this was only a 1 in 100 chance!

When I asked him how this was helpful to our relationship he pretended he was only joking and when I asked why he would say that he said he enjoys winding me up.

I'm not usually a jealous or insecure person but I'm not sure I will be able to put this out of my mind the next time he goes out with his friends. It's not the first tIme he has said or done something which makes me feel like this

This is not a normal thing to say is it?

Also just to point out you said that the reason you think you shouldn't be together is something else or "another story" whether it's linked or not what you gave told us alone is enough to LTB.

And that's from someone who thinks there's away to work most things out...

What a shit thing to say. You are wasting your time with this cunt and you know it. Just tell him to fuck off and move on.

As is said on here often 'when someone reveals their real colours, listen'. He's telling you that, not only are your feelings unimportant to him, but that he enjoys being the cause of unhappy feelings in you. Listen to that.

What an utter twat. Get rid.
