Fed up!
Relationship Stress / by Katie3401

...See more Were seeing how things go but Im not hopeful. We live together - we used to talk but as the relationship progressed he said he prefers quiet times and doesnt like talking and although he can be real fun, he also gets a bit antisocial and needs his space. About a year ago I had a male friend I was messaging - he knew about him - someone I could confide in - in the absence of my bf not talking. On occasion my friend would say something inappropriate which I would just ignore or dismiss. My bf saw one of these messages and was upset that I hadnt been direct. I cut off contact with my friend and weve been getting on really well. Even talked about marriage. Always messaging, always saying how much we love each other. Then over the last few months hes more distant and after months of asking, says hes still struggling with the messages and feels we dont get on. Hes been working long hours so I try to help and because my job is more flexible, I try to plan things (before we had this conversation) which he says is smothering him and feels Im trying too hard to spend time with him. Yet he find can find time to be with friends :( I thought I was doing what most couples would? So now Im leaving him to it and just seeing what happens. But wish this sick feeling in my stomach would go - feel quite lonely because hes never around and insecure just not knowing what is happening.
