I got upset at my parents because they said I’d cheat on my girlfriend
I was having a chat about cheating overall with my mom and brother just what we think and how we would react in hypothetical situations. Anyway, the topic of my girlfriend cheating came up and I just said I wouldn’t know how to react because it hasn’t happened.
My mom then proceeds to say that I would be the problem and the cheat not her.
I was taken by surprise by this comment she said it was a joke and I don’t know how to take a joke. All I did was say that it wasn’t a nice comment and walked away. She got upset that I didn’t take it as a joke and was saying that we take everything too seriously. My dad then heard the story and said I should take it for what it was which was a joke.
But the problem is, she said it in my girlfriend’s face, which lead to an argument later on with my girlfriend.
She is sensitive and just got together with me for a month, this is not really a time to joke and this completely destroyed any confidence she had in me.
That stupid joke my mom maid had repercussions that lasted me for the next 6 months, she has been suspecting me, checking me and doing all sorts of “detective work”.
My mother really sabotage my relationship.
I dont know if I’m overreacting to the joke but I did feel the comments were hurtful and unnecessary.
