Is he doing this to be abusive?

We've had an on/off relationship for about 7 years but he does this thing where a few days after we've had sex, he complains that his testicles hurt and do I have an infection or have I been with anyone else? This pisses me off because I've never cheated on him - he is the one who cheated on me in the past. It seems to be a pattern of behaviour that he does which leaves me thinking I wish I didn't have sex with him.

He also complains about 'how I taste' saying my body fluids taste a bit sour. I asked him what did he expect it to taste like, strawberries? He said 'well it did last week'.

I am a very hygienic person who always showers meticulously right before if I know I'm going to have sex. At the time of the sex it's always pretty explosive but then he says this stuff and I think why do I bother.

Is he doing this to be abusive? Surely if he was genuinely concerned about having an infection he would go to the doctor. He has an autoimmune condition which necessitates urology appointments but he always ignores the letters he has about it.

Look up Negging OP.

I'd rather be alone the rest of my life than with such a low-life.

Yes, I can see now that it is negging. For some reason I thought people only do that at the start of a relationship. But yeah I can see that's what it is.
