So I’m having a particularly bad time at work. Won’t go into the details but I really needed to offload, so I started talking about it to my partner and how I feel. He showed interest for a few minutes and we had a 2 way dialogue, but then he got a text whilst I was mid sentence, opened his phone and started watching a clip of whatever had been sent through…
I sat astounded and called him out on it, told him he was rude and that he clearly wasn’t listening to a word I was saying/ didn’t care. He apologised, but this is a common occurrence. His communication skills are dire and it’s really starting to get to me. he will frequently go out (on his bike, for drinks with his friends) which I have no issue with but he’ll give me
an approx time and never sticks to it. He’s actually said repeatedly that he won’t change so I should ring him and ultimately be a nag!! I shouldn’t have to nag! Surely sending a quick 30 second text to say that the plans have changed and I’ll be home later isn’t hard??
We’ve been together nearly 6 years.
I’m not sure how much more I can take as I feel so bloody unimportant to him. But then I question If I’m being a diva and need to get a grip! Life could be worse!
AIBU? Does anyone else have a similar situation and do you have any advice?
thanks in advance x
