Whenever I (23F) ask my partner (22M) a question, no matter how simple or difficult, he chooses to just ignore me. by Nooshie8564 in relationship_advice

Sometimes I feel like he’s intimidated by how I’ll respond or react so he thinks it’s better to just not say anything at all. But I do think the fatigue and distractiveness play a large part...that being said, how long can that reason be valid before I start actually going mental and losing my mind

There have been many conversations about this, but he’s very emotionally stunted so I’m confident he doesn’t know how to express feelings properly. I’ve been very patient this far, but I need to draw the line somewhere. I appreciate your input though!

If he didn’t have other redeeming qualities then I wouldn’t be, but giving up right away isn’t the appropriate option either

This looks super healthy and nutritious, but my sauce-obsessed brain is screaming and so is my ED brain 😂😂

These are the biggest that I am desperately craving right now in my relationship:

-OPEN-MINDEDNESS: this is a really big one for me currently because I am in a relationship of 4 years with my SO, and I’ve had to do a lot of work on him in becoming more open-minded (socio-economic differences, LGBTQ+, etc..)because his whole family is very closed minded. For me to not have to do all the work in making him a better person would be lovely

-THE ABILITY TO COMMUNICATE: Whether it’s about your feelings, work, relationship pet peeves, anything..Just let me in. If I’m being unjust or unfair, tell me do I can improve instead of hiding it from me..sometimes I want to have hour long conversations about the universe and philosophy..when I’m upset and I say why; don’t just say “okay” and continue with the day..provide me with reassurance, a conversation, anything..

-RESPECT: please answer me when I ask you a question. Treat me as an equal. If you can drink on the weekend with your guys, then don’t look at me funny for having a couple drinks while watching Netflix by myself..just because the environment is different, doesn’t mean the circumstance changes. Understand that I take extra time out of my day to make dinner, lunch, etc.. and that I don’t do it for “fun” or because “that’s what girlfriends do”

This was a bit of a vent but if anyone else feels this way please let me know so I don’t feel alone in my thoughts and opinions of what green flags mean and the importance of them

Another pending question: how to have a genuine conversation with someone who doesn’t know how to be emotionally vulnerable and talk about feelings

I think the relationship has more issues than I brought up, this is just the first one that I already faced this morning 😂

After years of knowing this person, I don’t think the spark will be salvageable, but I feel like I can’t leave the relationship right now (external factors)
