Should I Stay or Should I go?

Question

Boyfriend is depressed (because of personal reasons not because of our relationship) and has ignored me for two days to focus on himself.  Should I stay by his side until he is happy again or should I go? It's kinda bringing me down too but aren't you suppose to stick by your SO side through it all?!?

Answer

It's selfish to leave just because your boyfriend is having problems. Maybe give him some space, but don't dump him because he is depressed.

Answer

Let him know you're there for him any time and will do anything to make him happy. Don't give up on him

Answer

I don't mean this rudely but if you are contemplating leaving him then I think you should go. I don't think you're ready for this relationship. When my SO and I first started dating he was severely depressed. He ignored me (and everyone else) for days, weeks and even months at a time. He was even placed in a institution for his suicide attempts. I never even once thought of leaving my best friends side. If you can't go two days just wait until real life situations happen.

Answer

He should be working on himself! Depression makes it really hard for you to care for yourself, so him making an effort to is showing improvement and that he's trying to fight his depression. Support him. Be there for him. I'm sure he wouldn't dump you if you had a disability or illness. Smh.

Answer

If you're going to leave someone because of their depression, something that isn't controllable, you don't need to be in a relationship. Depression makes you seclude yourself and push people away. It could be a phase. It could just be where he's at in life. It could be an imbalance of chemicals in his brain. I'm not sure how old you both are or how long you guys have been in a relationship, but you sound young or like you don't know how to deal with depression or a partner's emotions. If you truly care for him, be there for him. No matter who you're with depression or sadness will occur. If you can't handle that, I would stick to being single until you feel you could handle your partner experiencing different emotions.

Answer

Stay if you love each other and work through the issues together. It will make you stronger as a couple

Answer

I'm not sure if the poll is asking if you should go of if you should stay  but I think you should go. It's been two days and you are considering leaving. If you really loved or wanted to be with the guy you would want to be there for him .

Answer

That is completely up to you. I am going through the same thing. My boyfriend is depressed and his behavior is horrible. He gets angry and argumentative. Guys often act out to cover their depression. Sometimes i have to leave him for the day when we're hanging out just because he stresses me out and fights with me. You need to care about your mental health first and your boyfriend by taking a step back and getting space.

Answer

If you can't handle 2 days of someone not being their best self, then yes you should go. It's been 2 days, not 2 months. Support is a nice thing

Answer

Stay
