writes: hello everyone,I have a problem with my boyfriend of 10 months, he can't seem to take me seriously. Recently he started picking on me Again and i couldn't take it and started yelling at him to leave me alone and stop being annoying. Basically he got really p***ed off and said I take things too seriously and i get easily offended. Was i being too sensitive? He always picks on me about the things that bother me most and i always ask him to stop, but he never does! So we fight and fight until he p***es me off and says to im too sensitive! Am I??What do i tell him to make him understand? Reply to this Question

 He's been with you for 10 months, he should KNOW what hurts you. If he had any feelings for you he would never do this and get you all upset. Why do you want to be with someone like this who treats you this way?
There are lots of guys out there who would treat you like a princess and be very in tune with your sensitivity. If he continues to be like this and not take your feelings into consideration I would tell him it's over. He obviously doesn't care about you the way he should love.

 Id have to know what kind of things he picks on you about to answer this question to a certain degree. On the other hand, in general, if it's upsetting you then it should stop. Often there is a fine line between sensitivity and over-sensitivity. There aren't really any right or wrong answers just how people feel.
In that spirit you maybe have to accept that he isnt being intentionally hurtful all the time but he has to accept that there are simply boundries he shouldnt cross and that there is such a thing as taking things too far. I think you should calmly explain how you feel and how he makes you feel, try and prevent a fight, and see where that goes. Try not to accuse him, focus on how it makes you feel. Hope that helps. Take care.

 When you say he picks on you do you mean in a nasty way or in an affectionate teasing way? Can you give me an example? If it's the latter then you are being too sensitive. Maybe you're not used to being teased and you can't deal with it now that you're encountering it for the first time but if it's the former you should never put up with being picked on by someone who says they love you. It's just kind of hard from your post to work out which of the two your boyfriend is guilty of.
