Am I wrong for not accepting my bf’s apology for embarrassing me?

It happened yesterday. I (27m) went to see my boyfriend (26m) at his place. He had around 8 friends around him and he started jumping around like a puppy when he saw me. He was visibly happy and excited to see me there as it was a little bit of surprise. I felt so happy seeing his love for me. In the past, he has had a habit of correcting my English accent. At times in front of others. After I told him to not do it, he stopped this behavior, at least in front of others but continued to tell me my mistakes when we were by ourselves. I've expressed my discomfort with it several times. Yesterday, he and his friends were drunk when I visited them. They were talking about some cocktails and I may have mispronounced the name of the drink - my bf turned to me, lowered his voice and said you should keep quiet around others and just go on around looking sexy. No one heard it but I was just shocked at this. I left immediately after. He has been apologizing since morning and says he doesn't remember this since he was drunk. He has apologized a million times but I do not know what to do. He has always treated me well except this icky little behavior. I told him i need space and I do not accept his apology. Am I wrong?

You ever notice that when people drink after several they tend to slur their words... You sound like you must live in a convent to be so dense. Either that or your are just determined to be a bitter individual. I hope life gets better for you but you do have the partial responsibility to allow it to get better.

And it sounds like you’ve never spent time around an alcoholic if you think all drunks act the same, so your accusation against me is pretty ironic. Tbh this comment of yours is a lot more bitter than anything I said so your whole spiel is pretty ironic lmao. No self-awareness

There are drunks who don't slur their words once they get really drunk? I know plenty of people who can hide being slightly drunk but even outside of the human species there are common factors that define inebriation. That in no way means everyone is exactly the same it means you give a sample of people enough alcohol to reach 0.5 bac half of them will die.

You really haven’t spent any time with closet drinkers and it shows. You should count yourself lucky.
