<human>: Recently my boyfriend has somehow decided that he really really wants to be the 'funny guy.' Now, don't get me wrong, he can be kind of funny - more often than average he gets a pretty good joke in. However, he really isn't close to being as funny as he *thinks* he is and people tend to laugh uncomfortably and awkwardly at most of his attempted jokes. I still really like my bf, its just that I'm not sure why he's choosing to fixate on this aspect of his personality and its frustrating for me because I primarily enjoy other aspects of his personality but lately he has been really focused on just trying to make me laugh. How I should I address, if at all, without hurting his feelings? Its not that big of a deal; its just a little bit frustrating and uncomfortable for me. But then I also feel like he should be free to explore and experiment with his personality if he wants to - I don't want him changing how he behaves if it makes him happy.

Can you condense the text into a few key points?
<bot>: My bf isn't as funny as he thinks he is, not sure if this is a problem or if I should do anything about it.
