writes: Is it normal for men to become 'immune' to small fights and arguments? My fiance just doesn't seem to care about talking things out, but would rather sweep it under the rug and not really talk about it. His view is that I get upset and angry every week so it's hard for him to still have strong feelings about it every time. I'm feeling hurt cause it makes it seem like he doesn't care about the relationship, and we have talked about it, and he says it's normal? Opinions and advice would be greatly appreciated.

Sweeping things under the carpet is never a good idea, that's how problems start. talking is key over everything.but one thing that struck me from what you said is that his view is you get upset and angry every week so it's hard for him to have strong feelings about it every time.i dont know if these fights/arguments are over the same thing but if you are upset and angry all the time they are happening all the time i can see why he would maybe switch off to it all.I'm not saying it's your fault as such, but maybe you need to find a different way of broaching the subject that doesnt involve u getting upset or angry and maybe he'll start talking
