Is this odd?

[WhatCanIDoForYou]

I don’t know what about this bothers me exactly but it gives me a little niggle every time.

If I ever ask boyfriend for anything, for a photo or get me a drink or something. He always replies with well I could but what are you going to do for me?

Today for example he picked up new glasses and I wasn’t going to be seeing him today so I asked if he’d send me a photo of him in his new glasses. He replied with if I do make sure you send me one of you too.

I passed it off a few times as being nice he wants to see photos of me too. But now I’m not so sure. It’s almost like he won’t do something for me that I’d like unless he gets something back for himself?

'Nakey' eurghhhh, my teeth have gone all itchy. Arghhhh.

He actually said to me do you want me to get ‘nakey’ for you the other day and that put me right off 😂 I might just end it with him instead now I’ve thought about it all.

My vagina just sealed itself shut reading that. My god the ick factor is real with this one. End it! NAKEY? I bet he still calls it his 'willy' too. 🤢

He actually said to me do you want me to get ‘nakey’ for you

Well my vagina just officially flatlined

well I could but what are you going to do for me?

"I'll refrain from punching you in your stupid fucking face"

Say it.

Fucking ew.

How long has he been your boyfriend?

Firstly, it is weird (Even said as a joke) and transactional which isn’t healthy.

Secondly, I wonder what he’d say if you said the same thing?

so everything is transactional with him.

he will never be 'giving' more then you can repay in this very moment in time.

so the opposite of love and friendship then 🤷‍♀️

So he never does anything unless there is something in it for him? not exactly the generous and altruistic type...

Frankly, if you love someone you enjoy doing little things for them. If you only love yourself on the other hand...

Ditch.

It could just be an annoying habit. My DH has the habit of saying "I'll give you a million pounds if you will [insert basic favour such as make cup of tea, brush DC's teeth, feed cat etc]. It is REALLY annoying and I keep asking him just to ask me politely - he doesn't need to insert the 'million pounds' crap.
Then I notice at MIL's house that she says it too - it seems it is just a thing that his family say to each other....

Oh no this is not normal at all. I would get rid.
