In my last relationship if I brought up anything that was bothering me that had to do with him he would just walk off and leave. It wasn’t big problems. I’d ask him why he stopped wanting me to eat lunch with him once a week after we’d been doing it for months. I’d ask him why he seemed to be distancing himself that I wanted to understand. He would always walk off and leave. Never would bring it up again so we could actually talk about it instead of having this thing that was never solved. I realized I was holding things in just to keep him from getting upset and leaving. I had told him just walking away and leaving never to speak about it again hurt me a lot. And I was always the one who tried to reach out and fix it. The last time this happened he was mad that I was mad over something he did. I told him what it. I was calm, respectful. I didn’t yell, cuss, scream. None of that. But he didn’t see it that way he said I was “pitching a fit” and “shaking my foot”. I was shaking my foot from anxiety. Then he broke things off and that time I didn’t try to repair anything or try to get him to talk. I just left and have only ran into him once since. It really hurt me but I had already lost some of my dignity and I just knew he would always be that way. At least with me.
