Making things worse

Anon

My boyfriend does not know how to comfort me. He tells me that I am blocked off and that I do not open up but when I do, 8/10 I regret it. He does not know how to comfort me and never knows the right thing to say. After a hard day/week, I open up to him and his response is "you should have done this. You should do that. That's what I do. That's common sense". It is annoying and disheartening. After I open up to him, I feel even worse. Because then I am upset about my day/week and discouraged that the person I opened up to is the furthest thing from helpful. 😞. This is why I find it hard to talk to anyone because I really don't like being let down.
