I’m so low. I’m pregnant so don’t want to make a rash decision. My DP is difficult, or maybe I’m just expecting far too much and I’m just hormonal? He’s never wants any intimacy, even when I instigate it he rarely responds. I ask if he wants to see a film, go for a meal, cook something nice, book a holiday (paid for by me) and I get nothing much back just vague agreement and no real engagement. Whenever I’ve gone away for the night and we’ve text or called to say goodnight, he’s quite drunk. He drinks most evenings anyway just not to the point of being drunk.
At weekends he seems almost annoyed to have to spend any chunk of the day together. Seeing my family is like a huge inconvenience to him and it shows the second we get in the car, quiet, irritable etc.
i know being bought things isn’t a mark of love but in all my other relationships I was often bought the odd bracelet or flowers etc. I can’t remember DP ever doing anything thoughtful for me like that.
He’s not all bad, he is quite practical and not at all mean with money. But I feel so alone most of the time. He will get home and be silent, when I was in bed in early pregnancy feeling very sick, he’d often comment that other women have physical work during pregnancy and no luxury to work from their laptop in bed. I just feel like I don’t matter to him. Though he was nice during morning sickness when I was physically being sick.
I don’t know if I’m expecting too much. It all feels very weird. I feel alone. Am I being hormonal? Will it pass?
