Incidents that are upsetting me. (1) My boyfriend relocated this July to the outskirts of London to be close to his workplace, but has started commuting back to Central London and staying with me -- because it's kinda hard being apart after living together for 2 years and also because zone 6+ is a little boring/quiet. He was telling his colleagues that the 1.5-hour train every morning and evening before and after work to central "isn't that bad", and that it was worth it because he loves London. One of his colleague replied, "Stop bull****ting us, we know why you go back to London, it's to f**** your girlfriend." They all found it hilarious and when he complained, the reply was "Sorry man, we're just jealous." (2) Yesterday I was walking back home with my boyfriend (just felt like picking him up from work) and a white van drove past honking and giving him the thumbs up through the passenger window. I felt so embarrassed for him, presumably this is harassment as it made me feel so uncomfortable and my boyfriend was yet again offended. (3) I visited my boyfriend at work on Monday as I was desperate to get a tour of his new offices. I shook hands with and said hi to some of his friends. Five minutes later two of them were discussing me as though I'm nothing but a sex object, saying I was "one hot girlfriend". All I want to know is -- guys -- does stuff like this happen to you when with your girlfriend? Shouldn't this sort of objectifying, embarrassing stuff have ended when I entered a relationship? Are people for some reason just really disrespectful of me and my boyfriend or is this normal? I just feel constantly targeted and want to know if for some reason people just don't think my boyfriend and I deserve to be treated fairly. My boyfriend would never comment like that about a girl in a relationship, so why is it happening to us?
