Thoughtlessness? - MMar

Posted: Feb 27th, 2020 - 6:24 pm

I have a female acquaintance, an older married lady, who thinks it's clever to call my boyfriend "the adorable one." It was kind of funny the first few times but it's been two years now and she has called him that over a dozen times. It's nearly always said in the company of several other men; they remain silent. My boyfriend keeps saying it's funny. I say it isn't. I told him to imagine him walking into room with five women and pointing to one and saying "oh, there's the pretty one." 

It happened again today and I just about lost it. The two men who were present just sat there silently. Apparently this woman doesn't pick up on body language or negative social cues. 

My boyfriend says it is all fine and what is the problem. I say it is borderline offensive.
