Me and my partner have been together almost 3 years, weve been engaged for around a month now, we live together, about a year.
We met at work about 5 years ago and still work together now. There's a 10 year age gap, hes older.
Before I start this I will say he had an altercation with a family member earlier on in the evening so he wasn't in the best of moods anyway before work cropped up in the conversation.
Just general chats about work then he went on a massive rant about how I never listen, how many times does he have to tell me things he's getting worn out watching what I'm doing all the time.
He literally does pick up on everything I do saying I have to watch you because I don't want you getting into trouble. Even though when he has days off, I manage perfectly fine without him there.
He has admitted that sometimes I don't actually do anything wrong, its just because I don't do things the way he does. He says his job would be a lot nicer and relaxed if I wasn't there. So I respond with, I'll look for another job if that's how you feel. He returned with, see I can't talk to you about anything, look how you react! Like, how am I supposed to react to something like that?
Anyway, it almost ended up in n argument, would have been our first one in 3 years.
I was that upset I literally just sat and cried and now I don't want to go to work today knowing how he feels. Part of me thinks or even hopes that the blow up was because of the earlier altercation because he's not normally that sharp or snappy with me.
On a side note I'll add that work has been quite stressful the last couple of months its been rather busy and we're both shattered at the end of the day
He got into bed with me last night, cuddled me and told me he loves me. So I'll see what today brings, see how he is with me.
