My new bf is a monster

My bf is very intelligent. So when I tell you that there's been several occasions where he's made statements that have turned into arguments because of how IDIOTIC he can be, I'm at a fork in the road because of it.

One of the first ones that I can remember was about a tattoo I have on my wrist.
I got the tattoo when I was 21 in a friends garage, so needless to say, its not the most profound of tattoos.

But it was a semi colon before a semi colon then and a semi colon in this very moment.
So when I tell you that I'm a conversation with my bf about my tattoos, he goes on to say "I just don't know what you want to hide or why you don't just tell me the truth."

From there on we go back an fourth about this nonsense.

I ask him what he thinks it is then, he responded with "09"

🙄

It's apparently obvious that it "was " an 09 and I tried filling it in. .

When in reality it's just a shitty tattoo.
The guy dug me out and alongside the shitty tattooer there was also shitty ink and a shitty needle.
And i even agree it looks like it could very well be 09.
But the fact of the matter is it's not.

I haven't a reason to lie about something like this.

I'll include a picture below.

To this day it's a mystery why I don't just fess up to it.

Example #2

A few days ago I was getting dressed to grab some milk from the grocery store, and my daughter was not having a good evening at all. Shes throwing a absolute fit and he says he's gonna wipe her face since she's already freaking out.

I tell him please wait 2 seconds so I am not in the room to hear that commotion it makes me grind my teeth!

Instead of caring about how I felt. Or taking into consideration that's my baby.

He starts arguing with me whilst wipingherfa e anyways, and the words coming out of his mouth at the same time my daughter is crying so hard she's silent were,
That's retarded there's absolutely no logic behind your statement your an idot.
I said there's some things you just shouldn't argue with the mother of the child about.
And he took the baby wipes (the entire bag not one baby wipe.) And threw them pointblank pretty hard at my FUCKING FACE. in front of my daughter to make it even worse. .

This last week has been really heart wrecking for me, as I feel he isn't capable of Truelove at least not with me.

Because this isn't love.

I made him food the other night and he takes a bite and sighs and says it's cold.
No thank you. No itsgood.
It's cold. Thanks for half assing my dinner..

A different occurrence where I said why do you think it's ok to interrupt me like I don't matter. And he said "if what your saying is absolutely idiotic and retarded I will talk over you because your wasting my time I don't want to hear it. (how can an opinion of mine be wrong??)

Two nights ago I asked if he'd take the laundry hamper downstairs for me, and he said no to that as well.

Tonight I asked him to please kill a spider for me. And guess what.
He said no. Told me to do it. I said a relationship goes both ways equally. We both should put in parts of ourselves for the other one, and only them. That's part of being bf gf..

He told me he doesn't want me ending up like everyone we live with.
(He's the handy man in the house)
I said your GF is the only one that should be expected to ask you to do certain things here n there.

I said listen to yourself for real.
Your GF asked u to kill a spider. And your acting like i ask so much of you. As if I don't do your dishes mine and baby's.
Wash your clothes, the baby's , our linens and my own. Fold your clothes the baby's and mine. Put them all away (ORGANIZED TO THE T. TO THE Q. JEANS TO SHORTS TO GYM SHORTS ECT.)
He doesn't even take his boxers off his jeans, or the belt.

And it sucks because I truly love him. And I know that if he continues to think in this fashion I won't continue this.
I won't subject my baby to watch this toxicity grow.

What do u think. Is he a narcissist. Because he says I am.

My new bf is a monster

That tattoo, I think it says 'go'.

GiraffeLaSophie · 13/08/2023 16:38

He’s physically and emotionally abusive to you. Protect yourself and your daughter and end the relationship before he hurts you again, or god forbid hurts her.

I’m inclined to agree with him about the spider though. You do your own dirty work on that one, if it’s so important to you to kill something that’s not doing you any harm.

Sandra1984 · 13/08/2023 16:39

You’re describing a text book abusive marriage with some domestic violence thrown to the mix. Sorry to hear about it.

Merryoldgoat · 13/08/2023 16:42

Ffs.

You truly love him? Why? He’s horrible to you and your child.

Sort yourself out without him so you make better choices next time.

blueshoes · 13/08/2023 16:49

The only person I feel sorry for in this shitshow is your dd.

You are fixating on minute details and ignoring the elephant in the room. Talk about missing the wood for the trees.

The least damage you can do is to not let this 'monster' into your life and your dd's life for a minute longer.

Bin him off, obviously. But also, why is a 'new' boyfriend anywhere around your daughter at all? In future relationships I would really suggest taking things very, very slow and carefully in terms of when to even introduce a boyfriend to your child.

This is really good advice

Sunsnet · 13/08/2023 17:06

Thank you for reminding why I am happier single. You can be too.

1037370E · 13/08/2023 17:14

Is he a narcissist? I have no idea, does it even matter? I haven't read the whole thread but if it hasn't been said already - I'm pretty sure that it has - the relationship is toxic and unhealthy. You have child, you need to do better. You both clearly have issues. You should seek counselling to work through your own issues, before your daughter becomes so damaged that she needs counselling to recover from her childhood.

webster1987 · 13/08/2023 15:51

As concerning as his behaviour is, that's one hell of a leap!

Shes throwing a absolute fit and he says he's gonna wipe her face since she's already freaking out

To me, that sounds as if he's already threatening the baby, so I don't think it's such a huge leap. He sounds violent, he isn't the child's father, and how many times have we heard this narrative before?

RandomForest · 13/08/2023 18:05

Are you on drugs ?

Your post is non sensical and to be honest I'm quite fearful for the situation regarding your daughter.

PonyPatter44 · 13/08/2023 18:07

Whatever is going on here, that man is not suitable to be around you and your baby. Get him out of your house and block his number.

Sunnydays0101 · 13/08/2023 18:19

I can’t believe you allowed this man to wipe your daughter’s face when you knew it would her further and worse still, you asked him to wait until you were out of the room to do so.

You should be safe-guarding your daughter and getting away from this man. I hope there is someone to step in and protect your daughter. She is a victim here.

Indestructible84 · 14/08/2023 09:55

It does look like a 09 because it's not filled in, but The tattoo is a semicolon, it's has become a symbol of hope for people who have battled depression, anxiety, addiction, and other mental health.

Get rid of him, he knows exactly what it stands for, he's doing this to get to you, I wouldn't have this toxicity around my kids.

pinkyredrose · 14/08/2023 16:30

He's abusive. Get rid.

pinkyredrose · 14/08/2023 16:31

salsmum · 13/08/2023 16:37

I really wanted to read the whole story but as soon as you use offensive words like 'retarded' I didn't want to read any more 🤬

I think it was the boyfriend that said that wasn't it?

pinkyredrose · 14/08/2023 16:32

Ps. Please don't kill spiders.

BMW6 · 14/08/2023 17:31

Well you're certainly a lousy mother to stay with this piece of shit aren't you!

Aw but you lurrrrve him...........change the record FFS.

He's an abusive nasty bastard. You're complicit in his abuse.

Your child is the victim.
