Dp is always saying I'm "sensitive". I need to find the thing that "I'm going to do" in a way that's really good and professional (my job doesn't count) and is always trying to help.
I did a degree in design, the whole way through he regularly told me how awful I was at it, I got my degree and now don't work in the field, I teach instead.
I also play the flute. I struggle a bit with rhythm but it's something I'm trying to work out myself and I'm slowly getting there. I've been play g flute about 2 years and do fairly good on it. I enjoy it.
To just now, I'm sat playing and dp comes out and goes "I like that one you were just playing" so I said "Yea I'm just trying to learn it by heart so am going over sections"
This then leads onto him "helping" me by trying to get me to walk and play to "relax" then tell me to just focus on one part (which I was doing) and then going on to say "why can't you just play your own, if you were on a ship somewhere and didn't have any music books then what would you do? You should just learn the flute by yourself. I don't see how when you know a lot of the notes that you can't just play any tune"
Am I sensitive? I feel pissed off, he makes music and can pick up any instrument and just play it, I'm not that way inclined and struggle a little more. I'm so fed up of being told I'm not creative enough, even though he says he wasn't saying this (but has said it in the past when having a go at me asking me where my art is)
It got a little heated because I just wanted to play the flute without the input, I was enjoying it and feel like he's just come out to tell me how better to do it yet again.
He stormed off saying that I said I was struggling and he was trying to help. I didn't see any help there.
