Guest Posted August 24, 2006 Share Posted August 24, 2006 I am in a relationship with a guy I have been with for 2 years and we've been through alot of rocky times where we've both done wrong to each other. At first I found that he was such a great listener and always tried to get me to look at things in a different way and made me feel more positive about myself etc. Nowadays he says all i do is moan all the time and never wants to listen to me. He also says that I boss him around too much because I wanted him to be at my sisters wedding and today I wanted his support at my cousins funeral. After feeling bad about him coming I told him not to and he replied I want to come to be there for you and cos I wont hear the end of it if I dont go, which to me was a contradiction. He also said I dont see why I should go to a funeral for someone I hardly knew and didnt like, which I thought was really insensitive to say. Later I then decided to leave the wake early because I didnt feel he was happy there, and then he told me off for ordering him to leave when he was starting to get comfortable. I then explained to him I was quite upset about it and that maybe I am a bit more sensitive, to which he said 'your sisters seemed to cope with it better' which made me feel guilty for being more upset, and I know that is wrong and that i shouldnt have to feel bad for being more upset. What I am getting to is am I wrong for wanting my other half to be there for me when the going gets tough? I explained I would be there for him if he needed me, but he says his just not vocal about how he feels. I dont want to give up on the relationship because I love him dearly. I just want a second opinion on whether I am asking too much? Link to post Share on other sites
Pink Amulet Posted August 25, 2006 Share Posted August 25, 2006 This guy is a prick. Sounds like my ex. The best decision I ever made was dumping his ass. Listen sweetie, life is too damn short to be with someone who makes you miserable. This guy is bringing, no forcing out the worst in you, and then getting angry when you are hurt! Arrgghhh!!!!! I can't even begin to tell you how much happier you will be if you get this guy out of your system. You will always think of him fondly though... as the man who made you realise how much more you deserve. Good luck to you. Link to post Share on other sites
