Is he being mean or am I being sensitive? Please help
My boyfriend and I were texting because i was really upset about my life. My parents are getting a divorce and it's just really hard on me. He wasn't able to talk on the phone due to being out to dinner with family. I'd post screenshots but my phone doesn't work right so I'll just do it like this. My boyfriend used to be very supportive and would help me out. But lately I've been talking to him about this and he hasn't been sympathetic at all. I almost feel like he keeps making me talk about it despite it upsetting me. I didn't want to talk about the divorce or my dad moving but he wouldn't let it go. I just wanted to vent and talk to him. I'm just wondering if I'm over thinking everything because I'm upset and sensitive or if he's actually being mean or something. Thanks
Him: But why? Just tell me what it is
Me: No I'm just pissed off about it and there's nothing I can do about how I feel. Every time I try to talk to you about it, you just say there's nothing you can do. I know there isn't anything you can do. I'm not asking you to do anything except listen.
Him: I'll listen
Me: You don't understand
Him: how can I understand when you don't tell me
Me: I've told you already this morning when
we went to breakfast
Him: you weren't making sense
Me: I don't really want to talk to you
Him: Im not going to keep running in circles. Talk to me or don't bother
Me: you just make it worse. I've told you twice why I'm upset. You don't listen and then tell me not to bother. How many times have I said that I'm upset because my dad is moving 9 hours away?
Him: you've said it a few times but as I have said a few times, there's nothing to be done about it. I know you don't want to hear that, but it just is what it is. Sorry you don't like it.
