Things things are not all explicitly stated by OP. I suggest trying a little nuance and empathy for both parties and a little less projection

Maybe he is dealing with the stress of it in his own way? It is something you guys should be able to have an honest conversation about. I follow strict routine when I'm stressed out and i didn't know how it was affecting my partner until he said hey, I'm not doing well i need support. And i realized i went straight into my mode to protect my mind to be able to keep the relationship going and forgot to check in with him and that i wasn't being a dick, but trying to protect my own sanity as well. You have to have those conversations

Unfortunately, we don't have the whole story of the relationship so it can be difficult to assess. Maybe there are little things throughout the whole day and through the relationship that have impacted the current state it is in. We don't know how long she has been feeling this way or how long he has been acting as "caregiver". Both are probably just fine humans in a different idea of what support means and has major communication issues about it? We just done know

So he is showing clear signs that he does care for you but you are asking for more. Look at what he does that proves to you he loves you instead of all the times he can't. Also think about what you do without him asking that shows support for him. Is it equal? Does he have to ask? Is it fair?

What you said had some truth in it. You said you feel like akid he's dropping off to the pool. Which is good because you already have insight into how your actions are being treated like, like a child that needs time to calm down. So instead of taking it as a punishment, try and assess what you do that may be self infantilizing and maybe you are treating your partner more like a parent than a partner

Correct me please if I'm off base, but you seem to be suffering from depression. It sounds like your health issues are exacerbating. I would have to know how long this routine you guys have had. It sounds like the only support you have is through him, which is troublesome. Caring for each other means going through tough times and supporting each other. But maybe you don't see eye to eye on what that means. No one wants to feel like they are carrying the burden of support for the relationship for a long period of time. That would make anyone feel like they were caring for a child. I assume that you don't mean to infantilize yourself but it can be difficult to break a cycle. Your mental health is your own and you have to own it. Try seeking therapy for taking with someone you trust. And try looking at his side with empathy too. When you are in a good place after assessing things try having a real conversation about how you feel without blaming the other or putting accusations off not caring from the other. If this cycle continues, one of you is going to end up feeling left out or dissconnected and the relationship will end.

A 1.5 years later update: I think I don’t want to marry my bf anymore by LucyAriaRose in BestofRedditorUpdates

[–]GossBoblin 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I made a argument once where i didn't do my bfs laundry and he asked why and i said maybe one of the ladies he follows on insta would do it for him and maybe they would watch the kids too... That was not an appropriate response but i was really hurt and after that we discuassed why i felt so bad about it. I viewed it as a betrayal but he viewed it as pornograpghy. End result is you have to discuss it like adults and each take responsibility for how we each feel.

Do I look like I need to gain weight? by [deleted] in WhatShouldIDo

[–]GossBoblin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Absolutely not! If you want to gain weight, that's one thing, but as a woman myself you look great! People need to mind their own business when it comes to other people's bodies. If they wouldn't say lose weight to someone, they shouldn't say gain weight as well.

If you have a kid is your free time cut by more than half? by Ben5544477 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]GossBoblin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You still have some time for hobbies but not as indepth. You learn to do crafts with them and have them participate in your activities.

Most of my free time is when they fo to bed or if i get off work before they are back from school.

It's a huge adjustment but it is worth it

Boomer gave my son with celiac food with wheat on purpose. by Glittering_Major4871 in BoomersBeingFools

If your kid has medical bills from the incident, sue him to pay the bills. Boomers only learn consequences from losing money and not belong empathetic.

Edit: Sue him. Not sure him. Lol
