My boyfriend was upset that I was embarrassed to tell him I have a UTI?

Question

I told my boyfriend I was taking antibiotics and he kept saying what for you can tell me anything . Finally I told him and he kept asking why did you feel like you can’t tell me that ? And I don’t know if I did something wrong or why he was upset about it

Answer

Probably because you’re both together and should be able to tell each other anything without feeling any shame.

Answer

There is no need to lie or keep things from people who love you. Honesty and communication are important. You hiding it and being embarrassed may make him feel you don’t trust him. Now you know it’s ok to talk to him about anything.

Answer

I don’t think it was wrong of you not to tell him, but at the same time you willingly told him you were on antibiotics, and refused to tell him why. A UTI isn’t anything to be embarrassed about, it is very common in women of all ages.

Answer

I don’t think you did anything wrong, it’s your body you can tell him if you want or not. I mean I tell my boyfriend everything, literally everything, even when it’s my health. He was probably just worried about it since you weren’t telling him and got him worked up about it because he cares about your health. My boyfriend would find it strange if I didn’t tell him about that, but it’s probably just because he was stressed about it.

Answer

Omfg you're not responsible for his feelings. If you're embarrassed just say so and tell him to leave it alone. If he doesn't respect that he's a jerk.
