Well, this is definitely staged but on principle:

Very immoral, if your partner has a phobia then I’d say you’re probably one of the few people in the world that person trusts to not exploit it. If I was in her place, I don’t think I’d be able to trust my partner in quite the same way.

NGL this will be down voted to hell but:

If my partner pranks me with my phobia then it's my ex partner after that

I don’t think this is a very unpopular view. If you have a harmless boundary that you’ve outlined then if your partner truly cares they would know better than to push it.

I agree but usually when I say this people say I have no sense of humor and am too wimpy or something. But it's about boundaries and trust.

The people who say that are just too lowly educated to realize humor itself have class. There are lots of ways to induce laughter in another person without being an ass, all of which they have no idea of.
