hi, me and my boyfriend have been dating for 1 year now. he's a single father and 30 years old and i'm 2 years younger than him. we love each other a lot. he used to tell me how much he loves and me and wants to be with me. but recently, i argue with him in front of his daughter and he seemed really upset plus he's quick tempered and stubborn unlike me i'm more of a easy going and he didn't like my attitude because i was arguing with him in front of his daughter, and afterwards he wouldn't talk to me when i approached him. i asked him, 'so u don't love me then and he said, oh yeah i love u, but that't it and that's enough. so, guys, what does he actually mean? he still says he loves me. he used to say he misses me a lot but at the moment not often unless i say them first. i just reckon he wants to break up with me. but i don't want to break up with him. please help. thank you guys.
YoungMommy answered Saturday July 30 2011, 1:44 am: you shouldnt argue with him in front of his daughter. I would be upset if someone were to argue with me in front of my children. It frightens them.. Especially the little ones... Apologize to him for crossing the line... No matter how angry you get at someone you should NEVER argue with them infront of someone else especially their children. If you want to confront him about something take it in another room. If you are truly sorry then let him know. And promise not to do it again. And make sure you keep that promise [ YoungMommy's advice column | Ask YoungMommy A Question ]

That's a very fair request and you should respect it. Rather than getting insecure and asking the passive aggressive question like "so you don't love me?". Just apologize for your part in the argument.
If you want to be with him, respect the way he wants to parent.
He says he loves you and wants to be with him, trust and respect what he's said. If you are confused about his meaning or his desires, ask him what he thinks and feels (without accusing him or assuming).
You've been together for a while. Relationships that last do also change and evolve over time. You can't fight all change, some of it you need to embrace and see where it takes you. [ Razhie's advice column | Ask Razhie A Question ]

Next time you and him need to talk about something personal, try doing it in private. Also, after y'all have an argument it might take him a little longer to cool down than you, so while you're trying to immediately make up, he may need a little space. I hope everything works out!
