I have been with my partner for 19 years, but things have changed since he got promoted at work. I have been a stay at home partner looking after the home. This was a joint decision and for many years it seems to have kept us both happy.
But recently he's been coming home from work and being silent towards me. I always ask him how he's day went at work as sometimes he barely says anything to me.
I don't know if it's my imagination as I keep questioning myself.
He's attitude towards money lately is very childish. He wants to get tattoos that is going to cost him £600 but doesn't want to spend £300 getting his teeth done which I find really strange as he needs to see the dentist. He makes me feel guilty for not booking holidays as all his colleagues at work are asking him why he's not been on holiday this year? I have booked all our holidays in the past but this year we hadn't really given it much thought as our plans was to save a bit of money, so I thought...
Since he got promoted to a higher position he's making more money and told me that we should put equal amounts into our own savings account after all the bills are paid for and other expenses. We have been doing just that. But recently he's been spending lots of money on silly things and then asks me how much I have saved in my own account? It's making me feel a bit uncomfortable as we share a joint account and the amount that goes into my savings account is exactly the same that goes into his.
The only conversation s we have is about his job, anything else just doesn't seem to count.
He shows no interest in anything that Im interested in he seems to be on another planet.
We went out for dinner and if I didn't make conversation he barely said anything to me. I feel like I'm getting in his way and I'm walking on eggshells most of the time as he gets very defensive when he disagrees with me.
I love my partner dearly and I'm always there for him but something feels off.
Am I overthinking?
Thank you for your advice
