I (22F) have been with my bf (28M) for 6months. We're in a long distance relationship and see eachother every month or two for a few days, max 1week bc of our job/college. We talk a lot and I've been honest with him with everything from the start, but after some words said I'm not sure about him.
We have our differences and are still figuring things out, neither of us had a long relationship in the past, let alone had a LD one. The problem lies in the fact he's treating me like a child, tho I'm not sure if it's only in a cutesy manor – somewhere along that line.
We were talking the other day and we came to a convo where he admited he's been holding back on saying certain things that bother him abt me/our relationship bc he didn't want to hurt me- in the sense bc he saw me like a child/I quickly start to cry (I have a hard time to hold in my tears).
Has someone had a similar situation? We had a talk after this moment, but idk how to feel, am I the problem? Do I need to stop acting as a child/not cry when I see a problem? I can imagine it's a con seeing someone you care abt cry, I guess I'm just not used to being listened to or being taken seriously. I want him to tell me if smthng is bothering him, what else can I change?
