Exhausted in my relationship

I just have one simple question.
So my partner and I were having a discussion and I explain to him that I'm tired and I feel like I'm stretched thin and I barely have time for myself anymore. His response to me was " that just means you can do more". That really upset me because I'm already doing so much. Is this how relationships are supposed to be? I feel like I've lost interest in all the things I use to love to do because I no longer have the time for it.

sorry to hear you feel like this - what’s the reason why you feel so stretched thin and exhausted? Could we have some context?

He's not on your wavelength.

Time to be single,

I'm single. So much better than living your life with an asshole who does not treat you right!

What a twat he is. I think you’ll feel better if you leave him.

What’s the housing situation, do you rent? Whose name is on tenancy?

Do you have kids?

Does he not pull his weight?

Why don't you have time? Is it him? Work? Responsibilities?

His response was very dismissive . I would have felt hurt.

If you never get any time for yourself/down time you need to fix that or you are at risk of becoming depressed.
