Feeling Unsettled: My Husband's 'Jokes

Hey everyone, I'm feeling really unsettled lately and I need some advice. My husband has this habit of making jokes that honestly, leave me feeling pretty sad. He often teases about selling me to his friends for some extra cash, and while I know he's just trying to be funny, it's starting to weigh on me. It's like he says it so often that it's lost its humor, and I can't help but feel a twinge of sadness every time. What's worse is that he seems to think it's okay because it's all in good fun. But it's not fun for me. It's starting to make me question whether he respects me or our relationship. To make matters worse, he knows I find some of his friends attractive, and he jokes about selling me to them. It's triggering in a way, and I'm not sure how to address it without starting an argument. Am I overreacting? Should I just brush it off like he does? Or is it time for a serious conversation? I could really use some guidance here. Thanks for listening. Feeling Unsettled Wife

Really feel you. Your feelings are absolutely valid. Agree with the advices given. do let us know how it went after you speak to him. on the other hand i can say NO husbands are perfect. Even tho mine loves me very much, he has OTHER flaws that makes me wanna D.. him. Having that said, I know this is NOT right and can only pray daily for him and for G-d to give me the strength and forgiving heart. I pray that you will have this strength and see that G-d's mercies are new every morning.
