Having a tough time with my partner and I’ve been withdrawn recently in our relationship. My reasons are many and it’s a build up of problems we’ve had between us over the years. He has struggled to hold down a job and tends to lose his cool and walk out, leaving me to pick up the pieces and support us both. I can feel myself drifting away from him; I’m just really tired in the relationship and I don’t think my feelings are coming back.
We had an argument the other day as I tried to explain to him my feelings and that I think our relationship has come to an end. He reacted angrily and out of no where said ‘I’m so glad I’m not married to you, I remember thinking, this girl is so flaky it’s not worth it!’ I know it’s him trying to protect his ego, but it hurt me and he’s not apologised, although he’s going around trying to be very nice to me now. He’s since asked me for favours (lifts to work and fetching him things) and is trying to act like it’s all normal and wanting to plan for Christmas and stuff. I’m just numb 😐
