My partner is a great guy. Don't get me wrong, he cares a lot and loves me a lot but he's been very stressed lately. I've been doing my best to comfort him as well as giving him his space. Though, lately I've been going through a lot of issues on my own. I've been feeling a bit depressed lately and I'm not sure if I should mention it to him or not? For comfort reasons. I don't want to add on to any of his stress or make him worry about anything, but sometimes I do miss the times when he comforts me, but I don't want to bother him about it, so I try not to show it. I'm not sure if its better for me or my relationship that I tell him when I feel down even though he already has enough on his plate.

Any thoughts?
