Indecisive and confused...

I'll try to keep this as brief as possible...

I have this feeling that something is off about these sort of comments that my boyfriend makes at me.

If he happens to go pick things up with the house such as toilet paper, laundry soap or pet food for example he will ask me if I'm grateful that he got these items and how grateful I am. Sometimes holding in and saying are you grateful before handing it to me. I dont feel good about it. I do tell him thank you most of the time when he gets things for the home. But he still does this to me. I'm not really so verbal when it comes to showing appreciation but I will do things for him to show it such as bake him his favorite cookies.

Another example would be that he asks if I need or would like something on his way home, if I say yes he then tells me to explain why I need something like paper towels then proceed to tell me no I dont need them. He says that im ungrateful because I use to many paper towels and he hates buying them for me. Or he'll say would you like some coffee from starbucks and if I say sure, then he says the line is too long nevermind and if he does decide to wait then when he gets home he tells me how grateful I should be that I got that coffee. So now when he asks I just say no, I dont need anything. Then he says I dont want to use his money? So it's very confusing.

It's easy for us outsiders to say yes, absolutely you do need to walk away. Appreciate it's much harder when you're actually in the situation. You deserve better Flowers

OP you rant as often as you need ... someone is always here.. 🌺

Who made him the boss of you ... remember this OP... he is not a good person.. he is relishing in his control domination and manipulation of you...

I'm glad you can see him for what he is and what he is doing to you....

Find yourself again OP.. try to block out his undermining of you... be calm and quietly make a plan to escape this life.. 🌺
