So a while ago we just ended a campaign from burnout after having it ongoing for like... two years. It was a fun campaign don't get me wrong, but there were times where the DM, at least towards me, was a bit off-putting to say the least.
For the record, I was playing a tiefling sorcerer. We were already toward the later half of the campaign as at this point in time we were all at like level 11-14. My character already did his backstory stuff with uprooting a cult tied to his family, my friends had their characters go through or just start their backstory stuff, so on. Needless to say the party was already fairly strong, including myself.
So anyway, one of encounters during this timeframe led to me going on a solo operation of breaking into a skaven hideaway (yes, the Warhammer skaven), where I began to terrorize them since Skaven are prone to retreating. So I had a hound of ill omen spook them, while I, with invisibility on myself, and using thaumaturgy to speak louder, made it sound like it came from the dog (since it's a WEIRD looking dog made of shadows). As the skaven were panicking, I had HALF the fort subjected to 3 different fireballs.
So I ended invisibility when me and the rest of my group (a minotaur, an aasimar, a goliath and a kobold) rounded the rest of the skaven up for intel. I rolled into intimidate them while holding a fireball and the dm went "okay do it with disadvantage."
Me: "Why?"
DM: "Well you made your character look like an eboy so its not as threatening"
Me: "I NUKED HALF THEIR FORT!? AND KILLED DOZENS OF THEM???"
DM: "Doesn't matter I'm sorry."
Fortunately I still succeeded in intimidating them somewhat, but not enough to get them to spill information on any other evil rat operations going on in their territory. I still found that interaction a bit odd.
That wasn't the only weird issue as it would involve an elf npc later on.
So for the record this elf tagged along the party here and there to help us through various encounters. To describe her character, or how she was supposed to be, was a mellow person who is exhaustedly tied with a bunch of idiots (that being me and my group). At some point, in the campaign, the DM had the elf confess her feelings to my character.
Now, I was not overly comfortable with this, so I brought it up to the DM, and said "I don't want to since I don't feel alright with this, so how about I respectfully turn them down? Just so they aren't upset?" The DM agreed with me, or so I thought...
Every other interaction involving my character had with NPC's had to loop back to the elf giving aggressive remarks to me. The DM kept cracking jokes amidst that being like "dude you had your chance man."
Later on, like a month after we stopped the campaign the DM brought it up again for a joke, and I sit there and ask:
"I don't know why you had to make her viciously hate me after that?"
DM: "Well what do you think happens when you reject a woman?"
Me: "Dude I don't think every woman is going to be aggressive all the time if you respectfully turn them down."
DM: "Just saying how it is, I don't know what else you were expecting."
(For the record, and I don't mean this in any hurtful way, the DM has not had a full on relationship with a girl to my knowledge).
So those were the two instances that happened that came off as odd to me. I am still playing DnD with this group and so far since that last instance, nothing major has happened in the past few months of this year. I just felt like sharing this because I can't be the only one who thinks this reasoning is a bit weird, right?
