My boyfriend and I have been together for almost a year. Last year my parents invited us to a barbecue, two weeks later I write him that we could come for coffee, when he suddenly complains that I shouldn't decide for myself whether we should go to my parents' house. So, this year he forgot my birthday last week, and I told him often enough when it was my birthday, on Sunday I even told him that I was not at home because I was celebrating my birthday with my girlfriend, but read nothing to say. Today he asked if he had missed it and then poked at me, I could have said something, he wouldn't know my birthday yet. He also always brings his PS4 with him, doesn't really bother me, but every time I ask him if he would like to go shopping, for example, he says no, so I go outside alone and walk to the supermarket
He doesn't seem to have much interest in you or your life.
talk to each other, otherwise there will be consequences.
do you want to spend the rest of your life with a man like that?
He makes himself pretty comfortable acting like that. For a relationship to work long-term, both of you have to make an effort, not just you.
Explain your point of view to him and how you feel about his behavior. If you are important to him, he will respond to you and want to find solutions. If not, take action.
A couple for a year and he still doesn't know your birthday? There's probably not much interest. I don't see any future in this relationship…
And what is adorable about him? Worth love?
Well, probably just the fact that we both like gaming
Doesn't sound very likeable. You are in no way responsible for reminding him of your birthday. I find the Ps4 a bit strange, but I can understand it. Sometimes it's just nice to sit together in the same room and everyone does their thing. If it happens now and then. But it sounds more like he's just sitting in front of it and not so much company with you.
I would tell him my opinion clearly and if he did not act differently I would break up. However, I think the situations described above are good enough as a reason for separation.
I mean, after all, he has a cell phone… He could have just put in your birthday. It's not a big challenge.
It sounds more like a very one-sided relationship. A relationship is made up of two people and everyone should do their part.
I would just wonder why you are with him and whether it is all worth it.
Because he doesn't seem to care much about you.
Yes sometimes, but PS4 turns on immediately for breakfast (he gets up in front of me)
Hmm That is not so nice. You definitely don't sound satisfied and that's what life is about. So make sure that changes. Even if it's hard at first.
Well, if that's enough for you?
You are obviously a very humble girl.
