Feel I am going mad - again.
Am I just over sensitive or a snob as he suggests.
Coming back from a night out we get talking to a group of women - he picks up the banter and adding my age, how he might trade me in for a younger version, how lucky I am to have him, stupid things by always joking at my expense. He then says after it I love her really. Do I imagine the looks of these people as if they can’t believe what he is saying or is it in my head and I need to lighten up.

This isn’t a one off and along with other things he does I don’t know if I am too sensitive

I think most of the women think they somehow being emotionally abused by their significant other. Its either more or less. I think the most important thing in any relationship is communication. You should talk to him what you feel. Tell him nicely what you like and what you don't like. He might change for you because like you said, he loves you. I might me wrong. But Its no harm in trying to communicate.

Maybe hes on his high horse. It could be hes really jealous and acts out for attention. You could be overreacting. But honestly at the end of the day. If your feelings are TRULY hurt by these things that happen. It needs to be discussed. you deserve to find a solution and so does he.

Well, you certainly don't deserve having these types of things said to you. I am not sure how you speak to him or if you also say things he doesn't deserve to hear.

If it hurts you, it certainly is emotional abuse.

If it hurts your feelings its best to communicate that to him. If you have spoken to him about how it makes you unhappy and he continues to treat you like that or if it becomes worse then I would call it emotional abuse. At that point it would seem to be intentional. If you haven't talked to him about it then maybe he just doesn't realize what he's doing wrong and acting out of some insecurity he may have that needs to be addressed as well.
