Is your OH a ‘closed book’ and does it annoy you?

I’ve just had a falling out with DP over something silly really, however I guess it’s the bigger picture I’m reacting to. My MIL told me something today about something that happened when we had first got together. It’s not particularly interesting, but I clearly remember the day and what he told me (seven years ago!) and he omitted some information.

I decided to ask him about it when he got back from work and he got really stroppy with me and we ended up falling out. He doesn’t really tell me much to be honest. His mother said this is just his way, but I find it frustrating. He tells me important stuff I need to know and listens to me rabbit on, but the small stuff he just doesn’t mention. I don’t know why it matters really but whilst I trust him totally it does make me think that he could honestly have an affair and I don’t think I’d ever really know. That’s how good he is at compartmentalising his life.

Does anyone else have a DP that’s similar and foes it fit comfortably with you?

It’s definitely not just his issue that’s true. It’s how he reacts to me occasionally asking the odd question. If he didn’t get cross and defensive they’d probably be no problem.
