I am nowhere near perfect in my relationship. I have had my insecure and overthinking days. Or even just overall bad days where I could have done better. One thing I really try to do is acknowledge where I messed up, apologize and try to do better.

My partner on the other hand has a hard time seeing when he’s wrong ( no problem seeing my wrongs ). He doesn’t like to communicate when he’s upset and he can say rude things.

I never get disrespectful when I’m upset with him. I express how I feel and try to have a conversation to fix the issue , if not fixed I use alone time to regroup.

I feel like he’s constantly on defense mode with me and takes everything as a attack. He gives me the silent treatment and doesn’t have mature conversations when he’s upset.

It’s taking a toll on me but I feel like I can’t be mad because I have messed before up too
