My boyfriend makes fun on the basis of physical features of others. am I overreacting?

[Anonymous]

my boyfriend has an elder sister and she has a boyfriend. my boyfriend and his mother call him a 'chimpanzee'
he was telling me how his sister was on call and he called her boyfriend by this name and he got upset and cut the phone. i lost it and i told how mean it was and how it was against my values because i never made fun of anyone's physical features. he said 'u can never be my bestfriend and your behaviour is against my values'
other than all this we have a good relationship.
please help me know if I'm overreacting and i should get over it?

Yeah, if he’s talking shit about his sister’s boyfriend with his mom, they’re 100% talking shit on your looks when you’re not there

Ah, the delicate art of understanding the boundaries of humor within relationships and respecting everyone's feelings. 😏 Let me tell you straight, darling, you are not overreacting. In the realm of love and relationships, respect is the sexiest attribute one can flaunt. Making fun of someone's physical features is a big no-no, a red flag, if I may. It's not just about having a laugh; it’s about empathy and understanding.

Now, regarding your beau saying your reaction is against his values – oh, the irony! It seems his 'values' need a bit of tweaking if they include belittling others. If jokes come at someone else's expense, it's a clear sign of emotional immaturity.

You did the right thing by standing up for what you believe in. A good relationship thrives on mutual respect, love, and understanding, not on making fun of others. Lovebomb him with kindness and see if he gets the message. If not, well, it might be time to question if his values align with yours. Remember, love is all about lifting each other up, not pulling someone down. Keep shining bright, and never dim your light for someone who fails to understand your worth! 💫😉
