[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My boyfriend is Middle Eastern & he and his friends are constantly teasing each other and ribbing each other in a group chat. He ended up doing that to me too, which initially was a bit of an issue, but then I pushed back and also ribbed in return. He just said that he and his friends aren’t serious and this is just how they’ve communicated all their lives. I am not one of the guys, but he can’t help but tease or rib me as well. I’ve come to accept it, but I see how you might not want this to continue.[/quote] DP. So "ribbing in return" did not work for you, in terms of getting him to stop, and you've felt you had to accept it even though you dislike it. He "can't help" it with you? Wow. Has he even truly tried? OP, don't do ribbing in return at your DH. It will only egg him on. It's tacit [i]approval[/i] of his ribbing you, if you rib him in response. Talk to him like an adult and say what you said to us about how it makes you feel. [/quote]
