What would you do if your boyfriends family constantly calls you by his ex girlfriends name? i know they still hang out so i feel like they are doing it on purpose and at this point idk if i should keep trying with him or give up because this is starting to feel disrespectful to me…he says they dont mean any harm by it but i feel lots of harm
Help a mama out and respond anonymously on our forum. My boyfriends family keeps calling me his exes name: Advice?
He needs to set them straight or he needs to go.
Tell them they need to stop cause that’s not your name firmly to everyone that keeps calling you his ex’s name
“Do i look like her? Or sound like her? Do i act like her?? Whats got you guys so damn confused with me and her??”
Then talk with bf about how he needs to step up and help stop this disrespectful crap or you aint coming around them again.
If talking to them or him is an issue than leave the relationship
Next time you are invited to a family gathering, wear one of those Hello, My Name is tags with your name written on it. If they ask why, tell them there has been confusion with remembering your name so you decided to help them out.
Keep repeating your name!
Correct them every time and make it awkward or slap on a name tag so they get the point… that’s super disrespectful and he should have no problem addressing it with them.
Start calling them by different names. If you do it everytime they call you by your bf’s exes name they’ll get it. Make sure you do it immediately after the use her name.
Call them all by the wrong name until they stop
Oh no, they’re definitely doing it on purpose. They’re mf
I honestly have always felt it’s a little strange if your family keeps in contact with your ex/ex’s family members; even if it’s just on social media. Like they are an ex for a reason, and having family keep them around is just so awkward. Just my opinion.
Nah fuck that lol we grown ass people you don’t accidentally do it more then once.
You should act so absolutely not bothered by it that it makes them uncomfortable and stop. Literally dont even entertain it. Dont play into their creepy idiotic bullshit. If it truly is on purpose then that says everything you need to know about their maturity level and mental capabilities lol… wish you the best
Correct them. Every time.
Start calling him your ex’s name and tell your family to do the same 🤷🏽♀ Let that happen for a little while and then toss him to the curb.
They know what they are doing.
I would honestly correct them maybe 3 times then I would most likely make a comment like “next time I’ll slap a nametag on my forehead to make this easier for you”
I would correct them once and then the 2nd time I would tell them straight up that by now they should know your name and to show a little respect… speak up for yourself
If he is not standing up for you with his family, its time to leave.
Stop going over there . … and make him stand up for you!!
Is her name Karen? If so, they’re doing it on purpose
Wear a name tag every visit.
Toss that child and his family to the curb. Don’t put up with that.
“they don’t mean any harm” yeah ok unless you are the spitting image of his ex then yes they do mean harm. Walk away now
Well when they have been together a long time it is habit. I have done it and always felt bad and apologized. It was never meant to be hurtful or have any meaning. If I had rude guest like you above- I’d encourage them to find someone else. Grow up. I call my grandkids each other names too, all unintentionally. If you are secure in your relationship - move on— if not move out. Life is too short for crap like this
They obviously prefer the ex. Give them time they may warm up to you however if they dont getbout of there girl!
Leave. My ex’s mom did something g similar and I tried to give her a pass because she was old and possibly confused. Shortly thereafter, she tried to get him to cheat on me with the girl. When I had his baby, she absolutely tortured me. Get out before you’re tethered to them all for life by a baby. Trust me.
Screw that I’d be out
Easy. Ignore them when they don’t use YOUR name. ( OK… It’s not easy, ) but you must do it. Don’t look up, Don’t reply… nothing. Not unless they use your name. Also… for fun, call them by another name. See how they like it.
One slip up is understandable, but repeatedly doesn’t sound like an accident. Stand up to him and tell him you need better to keep going. They already sound toxic if they’re doing this, not even giving you a chance. Do you want to keep dealing with people who treat you like this?
I would wear the “Hi, my name is” tag and then when they call you her name simply don’t respond
When my husband and I got together this was an issue. He clearly has a type. I called them out every time until they got to the point they were embarrassed. Never happened again after that. Call them out.
I’d be an EX maybe they’d remember your name for the next
I wouldn’t put up with that. I’d be gone.
Wear a name tag!!!
I had that problem when my son re-married. My husband too, we didn’t mean to and she kindly corrected us. Be patient and kind, it’s sometimes not easy to get it right.
How long were they together vs yall together
Call them the dogs name? Thanks for that “Hamish”.
Could always wear a big name tag on a syring around your neck
If it was a long relationship, you may have to just forgive them. I call my kids by their siblings names all the time…
I would not answer and if someone says something the answer will be well how you want me to answer to you when you say someone else name how I’m supposed to know your talking me. That ain’t my name.
Obviously you are the side chick that they don’t like. Respect yourself and leave the family and him
If he doesnt stand up for you and make them stop dump his ass he and his family are disrespecting you, and unless your desperate for a man…MOVE ON!!! SAY NOTHING…just move on…respect YOURSELF FIRST!!!
Start calling him by your ex’s name or his best friends name…
I’d leave asap! It’s purposeful ,.mwhen you address them say hey dork ass or if it’s the mom in law call her a guy’s name like hey junior…remember my name is whatever your real name is and look them all. Right I’m their faces say straight up you all know my name so repeat it it back to me and stop acting so stupid like you dont know…call them on their shit!!! Don’t let the disrespect you ever!!!
Call them by your exs parents name.
IF YOUR BF DOESNT SAY ANYTHING TO THEM WHEN THEY CALL YOU THE WRONG NAME
That means he doesnt respect you enough or care about you enough to say anything to them in front of you
I would suggest not going over there until your bf has a good chat with them becsuse that is being totally disrespectful
Who still hangs out the ex and his family or the ex and your bf…
Have a really good talk with your bf and say you are uncomfortable going over and if they continue to call you by her name you feel they are doing it on purpose and maybe you two shouldnt be together …
It’s kinda weird they still hang out with her
Just correct them. Don’t be immature like some comments suggest. They may have I’ll-intent, they may not. But you won’t get any answers by not doing or saying anything.
People get names mixed up all the time. I’ve had plenty of in laws call me by their sons ex’s name just because of the term of relationship as they were more then just a year or few months.
I’ve also had my mum call partners by ex’s names. It was just an honest mistake
If you find it disrespectful then say something. Nothing will change otherwise.
That’s toxic af and he’s an asshole. How would he like it? I’d spend a week calling him my ex’s name, then break up with his ass.
No harm? it’s disrespectful to you .
When they call you by her name, act like you don’t hear them. Then if they ask why you don’t ever respond, tell them that’s not your name🤷♀️
They’ll eventually have to get it right if they don’t want to look like complete idiots.
I’d call them the wrong names back lol
Yeah, no.
That’s just disrespectful.
Wear a name tag and point to it
If it hurts you…and you’ve told him…and he doesn’t care… what does that scream out to you???
You get punish him for their bad behaviour. Don’t respond if they call you her name or start calling them a nickname
If he cares he should do something about it but if he doesn’t do anything to show u respect out of it I’d be gone
They are just ignorant.
You aren’t dating them so pretend you don’t even notice.
He should correct them, otherwise you can.
The family, or your boyfriend still hangs with her? Unless they have kids i find that weird to still be hanging around
They know exactly what tf they are doing and YES that is disrespectful!!! Get out now because it will never get better. Only worse.
I’am making over $155 an hour working online with 2 kids at home. I never thought I’d be able to do it but my best friend earns over $ 17950 a month doing this and she convinced me to try. The potential with this is endless

As someone who has been the ex that the family was hung up on, girl run. Seriously they’re not worth the stress and that toxicity doesn’t go away
Move on girlfriend,is he worth your being disrespected,Hell No.
I wouldn’t respond if they say the wrong name or go who?!? You don’t remember who I am?

Call them by random names like Jim and Tina and see how they like it:laughing: look them in the eyes too and let them know you are not her but for the right price you might be. Bet they don’t start their shit anymore. They do it bc you allow it. Put your foot down and place healthy boundaries. Let them know you’re not a joke. He needs to get a clue, they know your name, they just don’t like you. Which is not your problem.
How long were the two of them together? How long the two of you been together? How long were they broken up before you got with him?
Maybe it is accidental give it time.
Don’t answer them when they get the name wrong.
Call them all cunts and have ur boyfriend address the matter with them. If he doesn’t, then leave
Just laugh when they do. Dont even act slightly upset, that just feeds the fire. Laughing at them will make you feel better, and they’ll soon stop because they’re not getting to you anymore. I’m not saying it’s okay for them to call you her name at all, but getting them to stop without creating tension or drama is better for you.
I Get Paid 0ver $ 107 per hour w0rking from h0me. I never thought l’d be able to do it but my colleague makes over $ 13850 a m0nth doing this and she convinced me to try. The p0ssibility with this is limitles

Normally if it was a slip up,the person would feel terrible and it would be corrected, but repeatedly calling you by his ex name is intentional…
Move on
Then yes leave him if you feel it’s disrespectful
It’s 100% disrespectful. Wear a name tags and simply point to it while staring at them. Then tell your boyfriend to fuck off & go find someone who respects you.
Be grateful it’s not your boyfriend doing it, just don’t answer them.
put your big girl panties on, smile when they do/say this & move on.
My Mom called my new man by my ex’s name accidentally all the time. Of course, we were married 30 years so I think it’s out of habit. Give it a little time is my advice.
start singing my names not LISA LOL A COUNTRY SONG HA
He should be the one to put a stop to it.
It occasionally happened accidentally for me with my sons current gf. The names were very similar. I felt terrible, but it happened.
They are being a**holes
Yeah leave him. His family don’t want you and him together.
He needs to be blunt and tell them it’s disrespectful to stop it!! I wouldn’t take it if he doesn’t want to fix it the next time they called me that I’d tell them I’m not(so & so) I would appreciate it if you didn’t call me that my name is———!!! And if he nor his family like it move on you’ll never fit in!!! A man should never let his family disrespect the one they are dating live with or they are married to!!! If he don’t want to fix it maybe he thinks they’ll get back together???

My exes mom called me his exes name once. We were dating for a year. I told her my name.
My husband’s little brother called me his exes name once after a few months of dating. I was loud enough the entire house heard me " I am not ____ don’t do that again " 4 years later and everyone calls me by my name. Make them stop or stop talking to them.
