am i being verbal abuse?
Im dating this guy about almost 7 years, we get along some what good but i don't like the way he talk to me, he always jokes around even tho the situation is serious. I'm half deft in my left ear i cant hear very good so i say huh too much he said clean out your ears hug fish.

I'm not sure if there's enough detail for an outsider to determine if you're being verbally abused, but from what I can see, you're being disrespected, which is just as bad. Try and get him to sit down with you and calmly explain to him that you don't appreciate the way he's speaking to you and you don't feel respected. Tell him how the way he speaks to you hurts your feelings.
And if he jokes around during this serious conversation, that's okay, serious topics might make him uncomfortable. Just tell him that you don't appreciate it when he jokes around when you're trying to talk about something like this. But remember to remain calm during the conversation. Don't let his attitude affect you.
