Feel down & alone.

[LonelyStar14]

Been with my OH 4 years but just recently I feel so lonely even when I'm with him. Ita like the lights are on but no one is home with him. I'll talk to him and he either doesn't hear me or will just ignore what I say.
He makes me feel like I'm asking too much all the time, always having a dig at me even about bread being hard, like it's my fault?!
I want cuddles too much, I ask too many questions, I look miserable. I cant win. Even on days when I do feel alright one sly comment from him makes me feel like shit again. I'm fed up of it but I love him.

Difficult for sure.
What's happening in your lives outside of your relationship? Has he got some stuff he's going through/ some big changes or worries?
Have you got anything going on in yours that makes you feel low, or makes you feel like you need a bit more support from him, or generally vulnerable, and more sensitive to him acting cold?
Of course these outside factors would come to influence your relationship.

My partner went through a stage where I'd see him totally switch off and unable to engage as he went through grief.

Do you think there could be something going on that's wearing heavy on him or distracting him? Unfortunately a lot men are very bad at opening up!

I'm not saying his behaviour is ok but trying to look for reasons for this dynamic change. What's he like normally?

What is he doing when you are speaking to him and he does not respond?
