Your boyfriend is being insensitive, and you have to tell him. Because he is picking at an area of extreme sensitivity for you, it is understandable that you hesitate to bring it up, but it is necessary for your self-esteem and for the future of your relationship that you address his comments.
To become an excellent writer, you must learn how to tell stories in vivid detail that are founded on facts and context. You do not have to expose all personal experiences, but being able to connect with your emotions will enhance the authenticity of your writing.
