You might be a toxic person and you just might attract toxic people. I don't know you so I'm just saying you might be.

@wstcstrob well, as I said to some others, my behavior is kinda manly and I'm start thinking does he do that to show who is better? Idk!

What's normal is whatever works in a relationship in a positive way. If the teasing loses it's lightness and fun, suddenly taking a nasty turn, there's an underlying problem.
It can be that way without becoming toxic. If it happens and people start getting their feelings hurt a lot then it is reaching toxic levels.

It isn't for everyone but I'd say it's normal to a point.

How would we know - sounds harsh, but I’m not. This is such an individual relationship thing. I have seen these remarks as part of a great relationship and a toxic relationship. I think you and your partner need to have a clean “have no go” chat to establish what is happening. We can offer comments, but you have to live with what you are happy with.

I love that playful kind of teasing. :)
WonderfulOne · 22-25, F
@SW-User yeah me too. But I'm afraid that's because I'm kinda manly and he does that in order to show who is better.

We always make fun of each other!

It took me a long time to find out this wasn’t cool.
WonderfulOne · 22-25, F
@SW-User ikr. I feel he does this to show who is better.
SW-User
@WonderfulOne Noooo!

That’s not it at all. It’s him treating you like one of his buds. That’s how men bond with each other.

I never knew that was how I was making my wife feel.

Tell him how it makes you feel. He won’t be able to completely stop it but he will try.

@SW-User I know almost all of his buds and I saw him with them. He acts more sensible around them. He is also sensible around me and that's one thing I like, but I mean a calm sensible way.
Well, I'm not saying they don't have such moments, but not as much as we have. Every time we are together our conversation turns into such thing in a way or another, and that makes me feel it's because of his competitiveness. Actually, I like this challenge, but I don't want it to become a competition between us.

I tease my girlfriend just not putting her down though.

It's normal, me & my partner do it all the time.
