So bit of quick background. Me and DP have been together 3ish years. I say ish because last December we split. We began trying again around July time. Last year I had PND, think he was depressed too. He wasn't supportive at all and I finally upped and left.
Fast forward to now. I'm a lot Better, stronger, happier. I'm not sure I wanted to try out of loneliness or I did miss him. He is my best friend in that he knows me so well, we can have good chats etc. But this time round it's different I'm not so needy and feel like I don't need him as much.
He has his own issues and paid to do a course to help with his depression and to try and change Into a better person. I came across some of his sheets this weekend and quickly read a few. He knows exactly what his Downfalls are but feels he only acknowledge this when he sits down to do his course homrwork. So for example this weekend out D'S has been ill. I've run around looking after him and felt DP hasn't been much help. Snapping at me, being ungrateful, blaming me. It's only when he done his course homework he said sorry and then said how happy he is we are working it out and he loves me. Kind of feel like this is empty and I can see through it.
Will he ever change Into a man who can openly express his feelings? One that can be supportive and not mock? One that I don't feel like I have to walk on egg shells because he is in a general bad mood. My feeling is no but it's hard to walk away.
