I'm literally in the EXACT same situation.. My boyfriend and I will be together (on-and-off) for 4 years this November.

The key is communication. I had my boyfriend over, laid down with him and had a "heart-to-heart." Let him know how you feel. Tell him that you don't like to fighting with him and that it's really bothering you, etc. I really got through to my boyfriend and although it's not nearly where it needs to be, I notice he's been trying- which is all that matters. So, I'd suggest speaking to your boyfriend. But don't expect a dramatic change immediately! It takes time. If you two begin to fight after the talk, just remind him- be like I really don't want to fight with you.

It's have been working for me. I hope it works out for you too!

not to be mean that could be a sign that he wants to break up.or maybe his going through some stuff right now.i would try to talk to him but before you start the convo compliment him just to show him that you mean no harm.tell him how you been feeling about things and how you want to make things better.good luck

set things straight, tell him to listen or your simply going to get fed of him, he needs to listen to you and he would if he loves you, tell him not to get mad all the time.

The simple answer is stop talking to him, but that won't work, will it?

So the complex answer is figure out why he's so defensive. You could ask, but chances are he'd be offended by the accusation.

Think really hard about what the little things have in common, how they all relate, and I'll bet there's an underlying theme.

My boyfriend figured this out when I was doing what your man is doing right now. He finally just confronted me about the underlying theme and I'm not angry anymore.

If you can't find a theme, I don't know... I'd like to say he probably needs to see a shrink, but I think everyone benefits from that (lord knows I did). That may be the part where you'll just have to ask and deal with what happens. (wow, this paragraph was NOT helpful-stick with the 1st 4 paragraphs instead)
