To think he's going to break up with me?

[kingofbravo]

Me and my boyfriend got into an argument last night, my ex sent me a message and I replied to it. It was just friendly and I have no feelings for this guy but boyfriend was annoyed.

This morning I apologised, he ignored me all morning, very unlike him. I then said something about plans we had made, his response was 'I look forward to that. I'll chat later cause i think a few things need ironed out'.

He's working so can't discuss things at the moment but I now have to wait all day and I am just freaking out that he's going to break up with me. We've only been together 9 months 😢

Does that text read like he wants to break up?

Break up with him first. He's not the one.

I don’t think it reads that way actually. If anything it feels like he might think you and him need to have a chat where he lays down the law about who you can and cannot correspond with. Which is worse.

Eh? 😂

It sounds like you’re having an argument and he wants to speak to you later, but not like he’s about to break up with you

Are you the poster that showed your boyfriend the message about your ex wanting to get back with you last night? Because if so, you're spinning it a bit differently now.

my ex sent me a message and I replied to it. It was just friendly and I have no feelings for this guy but boyfriend was annoyed.

If your boyfriend dumps you for this, then your relationship wasn't a goer. Relax, and see what he says later. Don't behave like a naughty school girl that's been caught doing something wrong, take up your space like a grown woman and an equal partner. He will have his feelings on the matter, and you are also allowed yours. Don't spend your day waiting for a bombshell that might not land.

Eh?

He's arguing with her over who she texts, giving her the silent treatment and leaving her with a "we'll talk later" cliffhanger so she's in limbo all day. All seems like he's trying to make sure she dances to his tune going forward. I'd be on my toes.

He is at work. Most people st work need to work and can't be having calls or texting.

You had an argument last night because you were texting your ex.

He wants to discuss it more late. Simple.
If he's irrational in terms of his annoyance or expectations, then maybe leave.

If he just wants to understand why you are still in contact, discuss that he finds it disrespectful etc, then work on finding something that works for you.

Either way, he is being paid to work,not to text his girlfriend. You will just have to wait.

She's responded to an ex which if the shoe was on the other foot, most women would be furious and advise 'LTB' he's explained he will speak to her later 'iron things out' cant be more reasonable than that, its not silent treatment. I presume he also has a job hence him needing to speak later and he isnt 'trying to make sure she dances to his tune going forward'

I mean, it's as clear as day to me what he's up to but I guess we just see it differently.
