Am I Depressed?
Posted: 12-25-07 22:19pm

Ok, Latly My boyfriend and i have been having money troubles, this has caused us to feel apart from eachother Sad

I feel like there will be no end to this, i know it will get better and everything, but we didnt even get eachother anything for christmas. We are constently arguing about such petty things. I love him so much, but sometimes i just feel so depressed when im with him because of the things he says to me. its always my fault Sad why havnt you cleaned up? he says. i say this is a 2 person relationship will you help? he says no. i dont want to lose him so i give in and just try to please him.

am i making sense?

i just keep thinking and almost feel i can do better, but he has helped me through so many things and being with someone for 3 years, they are everything to you. he use to make me laugh, comfort me when i cried, i feel its not there at all anymore, i know he cares but its always my fault i screw up most of the time, and its probably true. i dont want to do better, he is my one and only, is there hope this can change? i know i have to change too....argg i keep rambling on pleease someone pst somthing. i dont want to lose him, i dont think he will leave me, but i have been aggravating him....grr im sorry i keep talking!

this not only sounds like a slum in depression but an unfair relationship. i know you love him but the relationship will go NO WHERE if he doesnt pitch in his share to help. hes got to play a part in cleaning up,coking,etc too or youre going to wear yourself out. how is this fair to you?
a realtionship is a 2 part thing not just one person can o it alone.

im sorry your haveing money probelms. everyone goes through it
sometimes it SUCKS really bad. but YOUR RIGHT! you WILL get through it and it WILL get better.
dont feel bad because you two didnt excahnge x mas gifts. the importance is that you are THERE with him and hes with you. take a few hours to just sit back and watch some tv or a movie. his present to you could be pitching in and helping clean or doing dishes or something. or even amassage. a nice bubble bath. money items dont need to bve bought as gifts. christmas isnt about presents

i hope you feel better Sad merry christmas!

i definitly don't want anyone to think im upset about us not getting eachother christmas presents, its ok. and yes at times i think its unfair, but we also dont split things right down the middle like rent and bills and things and i think hes paying more then i am. i know that doesnt give him the right not to help out with cleaning and so forth. it doesnt bother me thoough, because if i make the mess supposedly i should clean it up, but i

dont mind cleaning and cooking, all i ask for is a little time with him and for us not to argue... but its my fault that we are behind on bills not his he says. and i can see that i guess. i still dont think im making sense, its hard to explain the situation im in. if he asked me to go get him, lets say, arbys or somthing i somtimes am like well we should save some money or id ont want to drive right after hard day work then he says "ok" in a sad face its the end of the world look. so i feel bad then i end up doing it for him! then hes happy. its like he tricks me and i cant be a person that just says screw it he wont eat then... =(

^^ you wrote that did you not
obviously it does bother you if youre thinking about it. thinking enough to post here about it asking for help on these issues
yo DO need help around the house. so what if he pays more rent? that doesnt mean he cant pick up as well


if he wants you to go out and get him food or something and your tired or you dont have the money tell him no. if he makes a sad face end of the world face tell him to get hiself up and make him a sandwhich.

you cant give into him all of the time. thats not helping the situation. he will becomes poiled and he will think youre always going to be there to do this stuff. then the rest of the time when yoyur not bending backwards for what he wants he will be fighting with you. and then guess what that makes you look like? his MOM. you dont wantb that. that will cause even more problems such as lieing,cheating, possible break up, so fourth

stop this now before it gets worse. hes not a little kid,. he needs to learn the world doesnt revolve around him Very
Happy
