I want to feel like he needs me the way I need him


Question Posted Monday November 14 2011, 9:52 pm

I've been dating my boyfriend for a year. Over the course of the relationship we've generally been happy, but have had our ups and downs. Sometimes (i guess due to being in contact 24/7) i feel as if i almost take him for granted in a way and start to get REALLY fed up with him. Lately i just feel like he says something that offends me every day, and he's kind of being insensitive towards me. I feel like I'm partially taking things too personally since I've just been annoyed with him in general. I think it's a little bit of both of us. This has happened before and it always goes away within a few weeks or less, but right now, Im not sure how to handle it. He's driving me up a wall and talking to him the last week has been less than pleasant. I've brought up so many things that have irked me in the last few days that I'm pretty sure he's done taking me seriously. How should i deal with this?


ps. we took a break a few months ago, and everything was AMAZING right after because of the whole "you want what you cant have". now its kind of settled out and i want to feel like he needs me the way i need him

It's probably because you guys are around each other so much. You were happy during that break and after it but now that you spend so much time together, you've been getting irritated. I'd take some space and do other things that don't involve him all the time.
If it still bothers you so much, you guys probably shouldn't be together. Because if you're getting irritated so much then this relationship probably won't last.

I'm going to agree with Pumpkin

You've pretty much answered it, If you are not happy then there is no point in stressing it more then it already is. The very end of your question states that you were happy without him while you two took a break. If you can't stand to be around him then call it off and find someone else you will be able to relate more too. When you do, Try not to constantly be around each other all the time because relationships need to breathe.

I think you have answered your own question, I hear you saying: REALLY fed up, offended, insensitive, annoyed, driving me up the wall, less than pleasant, irked... to me it doesn't sound like you need him, so why would you want him to need you? I am really surprised that he is staying in such an insensitive relationship with you. You have not had a kind word to say about this boyfriend. Relationships do have there ups and downs but not in the first year and it sounds like you haven't even made it through a whole year. I think you should do the both of you a favor and call it off now. If you want someone to love you, you should love them in return.
