I am late 20s and have been with DP for about 3 years now. It was a rocky start but to cut a long story short I moved nearly 200 miles away from home to be with him, I left my family, friends and job because I was so in love and so happy with the relationship, everything was new and exciting! He was amazing to start with, holidays, flowers, cards for no reason, meals out, presents for no reason etc etc. Things were perfect I settled down with a new job living in his house and loving the change. Until around a year or two after things gradually changed. The happiness and romantic gestures disappeared, we started to bicker more, I felt alone, had no friends here whilst he was out with all his friends, keeping busy with all his hobbies whilst my life consisted of working and spending my evenings and weekends sat at home on my own. It has been like that since but has got worse, I have broken down to him numerous times and explained I am not happy and I feel lonely and at my age it is very hard to make friends when I dont particularly have 'hobbies' and no children. He said this was my fault, its my fault I dont have friends and I need to go out and find some. He doesn't understand this is almost impossible for me! I work long hours and once I am home I concentrate on looking after my dog and I dont really feel like being out all evening taking up 'hobbies'. We lived very different lifestyles growing up, he is used to being busy with football etc whereas I have always been happy with my family at home relaxing and used to be a party girl so spent my weekends partying! It has got to the stage where I cannot say anything to him as every single thing I say I am 'moaning'. He snaps at everything I say for example I came home from work the other day and he was upstairs, I went up happy and smiling and casually said 'what ya doing?' Almost as a rhetorical question! He snapped and said 'putting clothes away IS THAT ALRIGHT?!!!' his tone of voice and the way he speaks to me is shocking and this happens all the time. He placed a toy on my dogs back and when I saw I went to him in the other room laughing and asked if it was him who did that to the dog, his snappy reply was 'what sort of stupid question is that!!!' . I try my hardest to be jolly and jokey but all I get is snappy answers and being spoken to like a child 😞 I don't feel like he loves me at all, he is very stubborn and he can go days without talking whilst I try constantly to make up with him. My confidence is at rock bottom, he doesn't make me feel good about myself at all and I'm constantly comparing myself to others recently. I do everything to make myself feel and look better for a confident boost, I get my eyelashes and brows done, I have more make up than a make up store and I still cant do anything to boost my confidence looks wise. I know there are other ways to boost confidence but this is my way. I never used to be like this so I am starting to think it is him making me feel like this. Is the way he speaks and acts towards me emotional abuse? We are looking into moving house which I am hoping will make us better, but is this a bad idea? Sorry for such a long post, just after some advice...
