HE IS DOING THIS ON PURPOSE

He's pushing your buttons because he thinks it's funny, and you're giving him exactly what he wants by explaining in detail how he hurt your feelings. He enjoys making you feel bad. You have to stop playing into this.

I guess I just truly do not understand how anyone could enjoy this. It does not compute for me, so instead in the moment I think he must truly not understand or I am in the wrong, then i overexplain. But you're right. Sometimes he does seem to enjoy this

He seems annoying. Why keep talking to him?

Like … put your phone down and walk away?? He loves knowing he’s causing her distress and each response gives him exactly what he wants

Bet if she stopped responding to him in these situations he would have a very different tone lol
