I’m currently in a relationship where both my guy and I are very petty. If my guy does something I don’t like, I tell him the first time, if he does the same thing the second time, I don’t talk too much and I just give him the exact taste of the same medicine. It works every time and he adjusts immediately. Same for him when he tells me he doesn’t like something if I don’t adjust, he will give me the exact taste of my medicine. So far, it’s been working for both of us because we both adjust accordingly.
My question is that I hope this petty behaviour from my guy and I is not a toxic one?
If it is not toxic that’s good. But at what point does this behaviour become toxic?
NB: So far, this petty behaviour has been working well for the both of us.

I’ll give an example of our petty behaviour. My boyfriend went to visit his mum. 24 hours after being at his mum’s place, he didn’t pick my call and he didn’t call me either, and he didn’t respond to the numerous messages I left on his phone. I was so worried, I had to call his mum and told his mum to give him the phone. His mum gave him the phone. His mum also confirmed to me that my boyfriend had arrived 24 hours before I called her so it wasn’t a case of him playing games with me. Obviously I was very angry and I asked him why he wasn’t picking my calls. His response was that he is busy. That he will call me when he is done with the job he was doing. I said ok. I didn’t call him again until he called me. He called me a day and half after speaking with him on his mum’s phone. All the while I was lamenting to his mum how her son has refused to call me or pick my calls. His mum kept consoling me that he will call me immediately he finished what was doing. Guess what?, when I went to visit my own parents, I did exactly the same thing to him. He was so angry. Since then he hasn’t tried that rubbish again. Then we had to promise each other to always pick each other’s call even if we are very busy. Since then we’ve been picking each other’s calls.

So if he sleeps with another woman ,you will also sleep with another man ?

That’s not the best way to correct s man !The both of you needs to work on your self and take responsibility for every action

Don't let all those negative comments get to you.. infact, it takes a committed mindset and great level of understanding to manage this type of relationship. If it works for you now, just make sure you both grow and evolve together because love might fallout but the understanding remains which will be hard for either of you to find another match..

My habit of not calling more than twice works for me.


Calling a person repeatedly is annoying.
A person can't be with his/her phone 24/7.

If it's an emergency, leave a message.
Re: In My Current Relationship, my guy and I retaliate a lot by olaJako(m): 8:19pm On Jul 24, 2024
I won't talk less. What you and your bf are involved in is a deep factor with craving feelings for each other. Build it strong, improve greatly and keep loving yourselves. It's not easy to come by. Not everyone will understand your space. Ride on. I'm glad you both involved!

You’re already nagging your BF and his mom.. His mom is likely going to warn him to be careful .. If you guys get married, he would need his mom’s doc’s report in order to visit her🤷🏿‍♂️😂😂

get married and have a child first, then you'll know if it's toxic or not. In my own case; I was also in a relationship with a lady that behaves exactly like you. She's now my ex. "Kì obinrin to ato rin, ki okunrin to atorin, kawo eniti yio lomi leyin ese ju ara won lo "

This is childishness, it won't end well. One of you will one day make an assumption in your head and retaliate then the other party will get offended and nag till it becomes complicated. You can adjust your wrongs without waiting for your partner to retaliate. That's my own cent

I operate the same way. One missed call is fine, if I leave you 2-3 missed calls then it must be something very important that can't wait. Apart from people not being with their phone 247, I understand someone may just want to have a quiet time just about when I'm calling, they can always return the call at the nearest convenience.

It's not always about cheating or the other party not wanting to talk to you.

It seems like a kind of fun game between the two of you. I guess you're still in dating.

Have you fellas asked yourself if thats how you intend to live if you eventually get married and probably raise children through this method and knowing that your children will learn such from you as well?

It's not toxic if u have discussion about these events later so u both understand why u acted the way u acted and its understood.

It's reciprocity of action/energy and its part of no verbal communication but must be followed up by coherent verbal communication so each party learns from it that builds an understanding .


However where it becomes toxic is when u religiously continue to do this is same situations/scenarios or always relying on this non verbal mode of communication fir every issue when u both can just talk it over since there are some past references that can relate to it... My point is something let it slide don't be religious/hard about reciprocating thesame negative energy..Focus on positives more while communicating better verbally.

Tit for Tat everytime can be toxic and costly in some cases meaning it can backfire cos scenarios are not 100% thesame.
