I have been with my partner for about 4 or 5 months. we do not live together but I am being really put off by him lately. He says things that make me really sad.
Like going on about animals being hurt, he says stuff like "what would you do if I put terrance (my beautiful pet snake) in a bag and threw it in the rubbish truck and told you about it just as it was being crushed up. I say "would do you say stuff like that when you know it upsets me?" and he says "I'm just playing" and makes out like its a big joke.
He asked me to imagine what it would be like if the dolphins at seaworld came up to us all excited and he plunged one of them in the eye. I actually felt like crying but he thinks its really funny.
And putting a cat in a microwave and he showed me a story were a hedgehog was set on fire by some dickheads and the news report said it was found screaming in pain. Why would he show me that.
I have NO other concerns about him but why does he say these things? as far as I know hes never hurt an animal and when I ask him if he would he says "no, dont be daft, im just winding you up".
