If I spoke the same way to him, he seems to still be able to turn things around, and I still end up feeling low. Apart from this we are grate togather, we have never had a big argument or a majour falling out. Does this occur in anyone elses relationship or am I kidding myself to how good I think we are togather. I'm 21 and so is my partner. Reply to this Question Share |

Have a chat with him and let him know what he is doing. If you dont he wont realise what he is doing wrong, until it is too late. Blokes can be especially thick when it comes to relationship stuff and us girls have to put them in the picture. Explain how you feel and how you want it to be, i am sure he will listen and change his ways, if not then be prepared to think over your relationship. Do you really want to stay like this forever? er i guess not.
take care

Yes it does happen in other relationships but no, if he's not treating you as an equal, it doesn't sound quite right to me. I did the same thing to my ex until she made me realise what a pretentious git I was being and I know a female friend who had similar issues with her hubby. Try speaking to him about it in no uncertain terms (blokes generally don't get sublety)-we just need to be told point blank sometimes!. good luck (-:
