DP keeps asking if I'm ok

Pretty much that really. We've lived together for three years and every night if I'm not smiling and welcoming him with open arms and dancing around he thinks something's up! I'm absolutely fine and just feel tired some nights or not talkative, but I'm fine. Really. I am. I think he asks more when he's tired and a bit grumpy if I'm honest. Perhaps he's not ok? Hmm

Sorry, this is quite light hearted. I'm not going to LTB Wink but does anyone else's partner do this and what is the best response? I'm finding it puts me in a bad mood and then I get grumpy because he keeps asking and then he says 'I knew something was up'

Any advice? and please don't ask if I'm ok...I am absolutely FINE! Grin

Perhaps you could beat him to it, flip the script. If you ask him if he's okay a dozen times maybe he'll be too irritated to ask you?

You know sometimes when you're nicely and quietly watching a show together and your body has this urge to take a deep breath and let it out? To him this is me sighing and something's obviously wrong... Erm... No!! I just needed to take a big breath!! I assume your situation is a bit like this?! Yes dh does this too!
