| I got my braces off today and I sent a picture to my husband. Most people would respond with beautiful or something like this. My husband responds by asking me where are my teeth? He claims I don't have any teeth in the picture. I'm seeing the picture and I do indeed have my teeth 😁 I guess he was trying to be funny. He does weird stuff like this a lot. I am expecting a compliment but he turns into something almost insulting. Anyone else have a spouse or friend like this? What sort of disorder is this? |
| When you had braces, did he have you dress up as a schoolgirl for sexy time? That would be fetch. |
No |
| Why does everything have to indicate a disorder? He has a bad sense of humor. |
| Just a joke that didn't land. The joke was absurd not mean (he didn't say "oh no they're still all crooked!" or anything), so I don't see how you got to insulting from there, but maybe his default of joking instead of complimenting you is not a great personality fit. |
| This post is weird. |
I do think he has something going on. It's more than a bad sense of humor. He gives me lots of compliments that are actually insulting. He genuinely doesn't understand. I'll buy a new outfit and he'll say it looks old. This has happened with tons of my clothing. I can't put my finger on it but he's just lacking something. |

| I also have a husband who is terrible at texting |
So talk to him about it. The amount of mundane weird stuff on this board that people don't want to talk about with the person they've chosen to spend the rest of their lives with just baffles me |
I wish it was only texting. I could live with this. |
| Based on your post I think you're weird too. |
The very definition of missed opportunity. |
I've been married for 10 year's. I have talked to him about it. He's still weird. |
+1 OP you should have texted back "that was rude and hurt my feelings" if this is an ongoing problem. Don't stew in it and come to us for validation. That text would not have hurt my feelings so I can't understand why you think your husband is broken, but it's your marriage and if you want it to work better for you you need to put in the work. |
