Hi there! I'm new to this...

I've been in a 9mo relationship that I really enjoy, but lately there's been a lot of arguments and I feel really bad about them. I don't know if I'm the problem or if it's not me? I'm just stressed and feeling bad. I really love my bf and I don't want to break us apart or anything. I just want to inprove

@SpiritTea Thank you for sharing, the main reason of the arguments may be communication problems. Talking things out when you guys have had time to cool down after a heated moment may help with this situation.

Hey, welcome! It sounds like you're going through a tough time, but it's great that you're reflecting on it and want to improve. Arguments happen in many relationships, and it's not always about being the "problem." Sometimes it's just about communication or different expectations. The fact that you care and want to work things out with your boyfriend is a good start. Have you been able to talk to him about how you’re feeling?

Hello @SpiritTea, 

I hope this message finds you well. I can imagine how things are difficult for you right now. It sounds like you’re going through a tough time with arguments, which makes you feel really bad, especially that you care a lot about your boyfriend.

It is normal to feel up and downs in a relationship, especially that you have been together for a while, and it seems that you want to make things better, which shows how much this relationship means to you.

Remember, it is okay to feel that way, also take your time to reflect on how you are feeling. You are doing your best, and that’s the most important thing. Take care of yourself, and please feel free to reach out for me, if you need someone to listen to you. I’m here for you.
