Is he right and was I being oversensitive?

I ended this relationship a few weeks ago as I basically felt he belittled me at times, eg

  • if listening to the radio, quizzed me on the song/who the singer is, and also did this in front of other people,
  • did the same in his garden, walked me around it and quizzed me on plants/veg he was growing. I have a very basic garden but wasn't as into it as him.
  • made fun of certain of my belongings and interests, cooking etc
  • had to get up in the morning when he said so and had to make the bed straight away!

It actually made me feel stupid at times. Really, everything he did/ had was better. When I told him I didn't like it, he said he was used to growing up with brothers only - no sisters - and were always at each other like this, didn't realise I was so sensitive.

Was I?

Good to hear that. I think people like that like to bring you down to feel they're boosting themselves up. To be avoided.
