writes: My boyfriend and I have been together for 5 months and he feels like I don't know him. About a week ago I tried to give him a nice chain but he rejected it handed it back to me, and that hurt my feelings a lot. I would have thought that it should not matter if he likes jewelry or not he still should have keep it because the thought should count. but he said he feels like I should have known he never wears jewelry and this was one of the things he brought up when he was telling me he feels like i don't know him. I have not been with him for years only months so I am not sure how he thinks I should know everything but I am even more confused on why he thinks I don't know him at all. Lately we have been bickering a bit more and we usually never fight, so I am not sure what to do here, or how to help him feel more comfortable that I am learning about him or that I do know him.? what can we do?

His reaction to the nice chain your purchased for him was really dismissive. I understand that he means a lot to you, but frankly i think the way he treated you was rude and mean.Keep an eye on a potentially rude side to this guy. Don't find excuses for this rudeness. Because there are guys who already have more empathy and consideration for others than this guy. Don't stick around if you start to feel unappreciated.
