I showed my boyfriend a picture of an old man with dating advice that said “treat your girl like royalty, like a princess” and these were his words?

He said, “I bet he’s single” and I said, “my grandpa said the same thing and him and my grandma have been together 75 years”

Then he said, “oh yeah? What’d your grandma say about how you should treat a man?”

I just don’t understand why he has to have that as his response. I literally wanted to say, “the man is the leader, you should know that”

I agree with him. This is so sexist against men. You and other women are normal humans. You are not gods or for 99% not part of royalty. This is what Bible says about this: "For those who exalt themselves will be humbled". So have some humility.

Your words are definitely a red flag. He has the right to know how you will treat him, like servant? Smart of him to ask how in your family men are treated, since you told him how pretentious females in your family are.

Maybe that may have worked back than. But nowadays, no not really. Women most days aren’t like your grandma. Women these days are more about me me me. What can you do for me? What can you give me?

Huh?

And "the leader" is beyond requiring special treatment... why, exactly? If what you seek is being worshiped, you don't want a partner; you want a slave. Your boyfriend is smart enough to see that, that's all.

You are both just bad at communicating.
