A few days ago I made a post talking about how I was frustrated that my partner was blowing off our date nights. A lot of you (rightfully) tore into me for not expecting better and communicating how I was feeling.
So I bit the bullet and typed out a longish message saying everything I was feeling in the middle of the night and sent it. I ended it by saying I would like to talk either on FaceTime or otp whenever he got a chance so that we could discuss this.
And he called me within 10 minutes!
He apologized and was even sad that I thought he was loosing interest. He said a lot but what it eventually boiled down to was that he just got so caught up in making everyone happy that he realized that he wasn’t really making anyone happy.
He said he’d make sure that date nights would be our nights and that if something came up he’d make sure to communicate and have a discussion about it. He also made me promise that I’d come to him immediately whenever something was bothering me instead of staying silent and being unhappy.
I honestly feel pretty good about the conversation we had. He immediately wanted to rectify the situation and didn’t seem angry or upset that I had brought it up.
Overall I’m happy with how things ended up. Thank you to everyone who gave advice, I appreciate it. 🙂
TLDR: I finally decided to act like an adult and talk about my feelings. We talked, he apologized. There’s hope for the future.
