i totally understand why that seemed like something you should take personally. but just realize that in a boys mind he probably didnt even notice he offended you. its true. no matter how much you like a person, just having them is not enough if everything else is your life sucks. so be happy that you can get him thru his touh time but dont be upset, of course you make him happy, but he is still allowed to be sad abotu things.

I don't think you should take it so personally. He's actually right. Love is great, but if its not accompanied by positive actions and hard work, its not enough to keep your life afloat. I believe that he meant he loves you, but that love doesn't pay the bills or get the promotions. His male brain is thinking about providing. Your female brain is thinking about nurturing. Its a classic gender disconnect, not related to how he feels about you. With that being said, you were hurt, so maybe its best if you just acknowledge to him that you might have misunderstood what he said. Then at least he can have a chance to explain himself better and you'll have peace of mind. But don't get too crazy over this. I really think its more of a misunderstanding than anything. Good luck!
