“Said something hurtful on a first date”

I said something hurtful to my boyfriend on our first date, comparing him to a celebrity. He's still hurt about it and brings it up often.

What I wish I knew
"I should have been more thoughtful with my words."
If I could tell you one thing
"Be considerate of your partner's feelings when discussing sensitive topics."
