How do I redeem myself to my boyfriend?

I’ve been with my boyfriend quite awhile (up in the years) we live together and earlier we were just lying naked watching the simpsons and my arm was upon his “member” he moved it some how and I shifted and tickled it lightly by running my fingers along it and in turn said “aww it’s like a little animal”(stupid choice of words I know) and BAM “LITTLE?!?!” then he turned on his side insulted. haha he’s definitely not little in the slightest but im unsure how to redeem myself from that slip haha any advice? he’s not genuinely upset at me but he is insulted so how should I dig myself out of that little hole I dug? haha

Answer #1

guys can be quite self concious about their man bits… just say your sorry and that you didnt meen for it to sound like that. and that you didnt imply anything by saying it

Answer #2

Well meaby onother time that you guys are naked you can I don’t know. touch it again or something and say how big it is. Guys get really insulted when it comes to that, because somehow that is their power, that means everything to them. Or you could tell him that you hope he is not mad for the the lie you told the last time?

Answer #3

If you’ve been with your boyfriend for as long as you say you have and he’s still this insecure about what you think of him and his genitals, your problems go way, WAY deeper than off-hand remarks about the size of his junk.

Answer #4

honestly the only thing to do is..well either have sex or mess around and wehen your lying next to each other again after say sry . thats the only way he is going to really get over it. silly? a lil but it shall work

Answer #5

Leave the situation alone and it will go away or be silly and name it something and say you were just trying to get to the point of nick naming it and you didn’t get a chance to finish the play out to the grand name you have. This could be fun. How about something like Wonder Weasel, Trouser Snake, Anaconda, Hogs Leg. Names not to use would be Inch Worm, Shrinky Dinky, Tiddley Wink LOL hope you have fun with it.

Answer #6

Guys can be really insecure about that sort of thing, but in all honesty, I don’t think he’s as offended as you think he is. In that situation, I’d ask him sincerely if it bothers him that you said that- if he says it doesn’t, forget about it. If it does, try to work out together, what it is that bothers him about it, and how you can both avoid another situation like this occurring in the future.
