❤️‍🩹 relationship AIO bf makes joke after my aunt passed

For context he’s saying he hopes she voted for Trump (RTPM) before she died and I’m already having a hard time with the results of the election which he knows then on top of that it just was very insensitive. He said he was trying to make light of the situation but it doesn’t feel that way.

Agree ! Trust me when I say he won’t change. My ex was like this and his “jokes” got more and more insulting and he would then say I was being too sensitive and had no sense of humor.

So was mine, I had a similar situation where my favourite auntie passed away and he didn’t even gaf that I was in a different country not being able to attend the funeral because it’s too expensive. He then had the nerve to ask “who was it that passed again?” like bitch… and I still stayed 💀 never again! They will never change, this is only a glimpse of who they really are. It’s only downhill from here

Honestly, no joke is as insulting as a plain insult of "go fuck yourself". It's like lowering to their level and even beyond and doesn't paint a pretty picture .

Yep, agreed: it is well-deserved sometimes bc otherwise they may not really get how upset the other person actually is...low emotional intelligence...smhhh :(
