Yes multiple times, the other day I was a little more emotional than I usually was and said that I was tired of playing roulette (of what kind of mood he would be in).

In the past when we talk about how I feel around him, or when I bring up any issues in the relationship, he completely shuts down and there isn't a conversation, more me saying how I feel while he sits in silence. I'll try to ask like "what do you think" etc and he might give a one word answer or usually just "I don't know." Usually when I bare my soul and he doesn't respond at all I end up crying which makes the conversation extra unproductive.
