Hello! I (21F) had an argument with my boyfriend (22F) of 8 months via interposed messages. Two days ago I asked him how he was and if he was doing well, as I know he works a lot.
Today I was with a friend of mine at the museum and sent some photos of myself (which I always like to do when I'm out and about and when I feel confident enough to send him the pictures). I also asked him about the series and films he watched, as we're both fans. And his favourite flowers because I wanted to get some of him as the ones he got me las week died a few days ago.
We're planning to meet up again in a few days' time, so I asked him if he'd be prepared to see the outfit I'd planned for that day. He then started to asking me if I was worried because we hadn't spoken for two days, because I was « asking too many questions » (when all I was doing was worrying and caring about my boyfriend imo).
We got into an argument over text and I made it clear how mean his message was, because I felt like I was too much for him. He got mad at me, said it wasn't what he meant (I just reread the conversation and he doesn't say what he meant). I just feel really sad because I was in a good mood today and it's all ruined now. I told him I was going to stop texting him and that he can text me whenever he feels like it because I feel like I’m too much for him (which is looking back, a crazy thing to say to you own boyfriend).
He said that’s not what he meant (aka me being too much) and then said goodnight. I said that that what I understood based on the « You’re asking many questions » and said goodnight as well.
I’m trying to understand this point of view and maybe it was too much for but I would have liked for him to me more expressive about it idk.
I don’t really know what to do, he keeps telling me that communication is important but I’m the only one communicating. I just feel like waiting for him to do it. What would you do in my situation ?
