I can’t ever go to my partner about a relationship issue without him either turning it back on me, blaming me or just turning it into a battle. I always tell him I’m not mad at him or trying to argue. I try to explain my issues in a “it’s us vs the problem” way. Last night I told him I was feeling neglected. He hasn’t been there emotionally and he just said well i feel neglected. You’re not there emotionally. I don’t know how else to explain to him my frustrations without him just turning it back on me. I just want to fix the issue.

Anyone else go through this? How’d you fix it?
