Should I be worried about my boyfriend threatening to hit me?

[GoldynChyld]

He says it jokingly but I don't know I feel like I should be side eyeing him. He says shit like.. "Your face looks mad punchable rn" "I'm finna put hands on you fr" "Don't be mad when I choke your dumass out" He's never actually touched me violently but he'll jump at me and act like he is. I think he's joking but at the same time I'm nervous af lol Dudes are crazy

[Yoda_Level_Jedi]

Yeah if he is saying those things and jumping up in your face it is my not a matter of time, it will happen a 1000% sure on that, he obviously had a bad relationship before you, and has made him, that way, I would carry some serious mace , not that Walmart brand shit but Military grade, that would be much better that a taser, unless you get the ones that police carry that shoot, that way you keep some distance and are able to get away. You need to leave is my advice

[Cosytoasty]

You're going to have to translate what he said into English for me sorry 🙈

As for your question, yes you should be concerned. Joking can turn into genuine abuse if you keep puttting up with it. Not sure why you'd be with a guy who makes you nervous, but there we are.

[anewgirl]

I'm not one to get upset over jokes, but this sounds a little disturbing. Ultimately you'll have to use your judgement, but that doesn't sound right to me.

[Imafreespirit]

That is so disrespectful, it is not okay. No one should deal with that in a relationship, I don't think that is something someone should joke about.

[Bell44444]

That's really weird to me. I guess I'd have to be there in person to judge so I'd go with your feelings on this one. If you're scared get out.

[hunterzoloman655]

No he's just messing with you just being an ass in a funny way. It's what guys do they give each other crap. and he's probally just trying to scare you the same way how someone jumps in front of you and says boo. But if your really worried about it talk to him

[ShortCircuit]

If I was in love with a girl, I could never even bring myself to "joke" about laying a hand on her. I'm surprised you don't feel betrayed at the very mention of it.

[TrueAnty]

If it's making you uncomfortable you should 100% address that shit and tell him you won't stand for it

[Robertinho]

If he does it to joke around then so be it... if he says it over and over again here and there... well, what would you think about it?

[TadCurious]

I don't think that's right. I don't think it's something to joke about. Domestic violence is a big problem. Be careful.

[dropkicknj13]

I'm more worried about why he's still your boyfriend lol

[Slytherinheredarlin]

You should be worried that sound unhealthy, in my opinion

[MelaninPrincess]

You shouldn't be with a guy who threatens your wellbeing.

[chloehatespeople]

Thats abusive af. You need to get out of that relationship, preferably via text or have a friend with you incase he gets violent.

[WalterRadio]

If you ever doubt the sanity of your partner, then find a new partner.

[KrisPW]

That does not sound like a real man to me. Be careful please.

[undos]

Girl yeah be careful fr hell end up doing it at some point. It's not a fucking joke

[Patriot357]

Yeah be concerned because if you make him mad he might give you a beating

[Malaya]

Yes you should be worries

[Formula846]

Yea you should. Sounds like a douchebag tbh..

[IdkSomethingRandom]

I'd be, in your shoes.

[Browneye57]

Time to move on. Seriously.

[NevermoreMan]

Thats fucking scary get the hell away

[NevermoreMan]

Notice that out of 21 responses there's only a single person saying this is normal

[exhaustedfromlife]

Yes, you should try to get away from him.

[SuccessfulHornDog]

He acts like anasshole

[SJshawn]

I think there's a streak of sadism in his nature.

[blondfrog]

Yes you should

[Anonymous]

Be careful.

[Deck_zen]

Yes in everyway
