Been together 3 years, lived together for one and a half. Got engaged in Feb.
All sounds ok right? well no not really, we argue all the time over the slightest thing. I dare not mention certain things because he goes off on one - even important stuff like money, we just can't talk about it.
We became "un-engaged" a few weeks ago after a big argument where he refused to confirm whether or not he was going away to the other side of the world with work for a week. This particular week would have impacted on my own plans significantly so I just wanted to know if he was going or not so I could re-arrange my own stuff but he went mental at me over it and we ended up not talking. Anyway to cut a long story short it's constant egg shells with him and since this big argument we agreed to "try" to get along and maybe think about marriage again next year but since then I've found myself emotionally checking out. I can't be bothered with him anymore. His constant "I feel ill" whinging, falling asleep on the sofa all the time like an old man, dictating what I can and can't buy, moaning about my kids, us never talking unless it's something he wants to talk about -
How do you tell the difference between "a bad patch" and "the end"?
