Stress spreads to me
My long distance boyfriend gets stressed with work and family and then has depressive thoughts. I want to help him more, but I don’t want him to feel like I always think he is stressed. When he feels down, I feel bad too and then I feel stressed and depressed too. I talked to him about it, but it’s always hard to figure out when he will get in these low moods. Every time he feels this way, I feel like I’m losing him

Hi Blue, I am sorry to hear that you are having some trouble figuring out your boyfriend's feelings. I am in a long distance relationship too, so I understand how it can be frustrating sometimes to not able to completely read how they are feeling. In my opinion, I like to sit down and really let them know that you are there for them. If they want to talk about it, they will. I think it's just important for them to know that you're there for them. I hope this helps! Best of luck!
