My husband mimicks everything I say or do to the point where im just fed up listening to him. If I sneeze (i sneeze a lot!) he acts me and laughs.

If I scratch my nose or just move some way he copies me. And he mimicks everything I say its like living with a parrot.

Its so childish but I wonder is it loving or deliberately degrading me??

have you asked him why he does it?

My fiancé often makes fun of me... I have a disorder that makes me sneeze when I am full (after a meal) and since I have had gastric bypass I sometimes sneeze (we are talking like 10- sneezes in a row) after 3 bites... he thinks it's cute and that's why he makes fun of me. I know this because we've TALKED about it...

He often imitates my hand movements and says it's distracting but i've realized that I have picked it up from him... ROFL... so who started it I don't know... but again we TALK about it with each other.

you need to talk to him about it and ask him why he does it if he's even aware of it.

I would suggest speaking to him about it because if he is doing it lovingly he might not realise that it is a problem. If it is deliberate than he will either stop now that he realises you've had enough OR he will continue even though he now knows how you feel - at which point, I would have to agree with a previous reply in such that I would not be able to live with it...

I have no advise, I just know I would not be able to live with that .... have you considered sitting down a the table and telling him how annoying it is?

Is it intentional? Does he know that it bugs you?

If it's a sattire, then that's not very cool.

If it's something subconcious it's probably because we tend to mick people we like.

Immitation is the sheerest form of flattery.
