What To Do If Your Boyfriend's Teasing Is Hurting Your Feelings

- He's just trying to wind you up, and doesn't realise that it's making you feel bad
- He's emotionally abusing you - if what he says is hurtful, he could be lowering your self-esteem so that he can control you.
What To Do If Your Boyfriend's Teasing Is Hurting Your Feelings
- Tell him. It's all you can do if you want him to stop.
- Let him know that a light joke is one thing, but full-on teasing just makes you feel bad.
- If he doesn't stop when you ask him to, break up with him. You don't want to be with someone who's constantly bringing you down and making you feel bad about yourself.
