How to communicate with partner
I feel on love with my bestfriend awhile ago. We have been friends for years, and I felt like he understood me. So last march I called him drunk and asked him out. He told me that he always had loved me so we starting dating. While we were dating my mental health got bad a I became rude and distance. He broke up with me ( just stay with me) a few weeks ago. After he broke up with me he told me its because I'm not good at communicating and we argued alot, but he still loved me and thought one day we could get back together. I don't know how to communicate with him anymore and that's the one thing I need to do please help me.
@hardworkingBanana6516 I find communication hard to mainly where feelings are concerned, specially when it is in person/ face to face
What makes it hard for you to communicate with him?
is there something that might help, for example instead of in-person communication sometimes you can text or call if that works?
how do you feel about telling him that you find it hard to communicate but you try and would appreciate if he could be a little more patient with you, I feel when we are anxious about something it gets even more difficult to express ourselves
I just don't know how to I'm trying but I just can't. And thanks for the advice.
@hardworkingBanana6516 you're welcome
I get it is hard, keep trying I hope things improve <3

Communication in a relationship takes two people ... i have been told by others my communication with spouse is awful ......and that is why we fight..... well things progressed and when i have tried and tried the fact of the matter is he is NOT listening. That is NOT a guess but actual proof he misreads texts to what he wants it to say emails and even in person talking words are omitted or twisted and i am ready to GIVE UP ........
He assumes he knows makes grand gestures so far off course i cannot explain it then puts the blame on me...could the being distant or rude as i find myself like that ........often just out of frustration of not being heard.
This may not be your issue but being depressed and frustrated often comes out as rude and or distant
