What should I do if someone keeps bringing up a topic I asked them not to?

My partner keeps making jokes about something personal I specifically asked them to drop. It happens at least twice a week and it's starting to really get on my nerves. Should I just let it go or have another conversation about it?

Def have another conversation about it. I'm pretty new to relationships honestly, but I know from driving around that people sometimes don't realize how much something's bothering you until you make it real clear. Tell them straight up that it's not funny to you and it's actually hurting you - not angry, just direct. If they keep doing it after that then you've got a bigger problem because that means they're choosing the joke over respecting you, which isn't cool.
