My family talked horrible about my boyfriend at the start of our relationship. I showed pictures of him to my family and they made fun of the fact that he didn’t have a car and that I could do better than him. (He actually had a car and got it back in April). My older sister called him broke and that I had more money than him. When I told him what they said, it did hurt his feelings but none of it came out of my mouth. I can admit when we were first getting to know each other I did bring him down but it wasn’t anything to extreme. It was jokes taken the wrong way. One incident I could give was he texted me hello with my name and then I texted back “hello whatever your name is I can’t remember” and it triggered him. It was just a joke. It was mostly my family saying things.
Now listen to this.. All ^^^^of this happened within two months when we were in the early stages of beginning to date which was last year, possibly around November. My family never spoke about him ever again neither did I say anything bad about him. He seemed unhappy and depressed sometimes throughout the relationship but I don’t know if this was it.
Last month we were in my car talking and I pointed that he had a small stain on his shirt. He gets angry and points at all the stains on my clothes. That’s when he mentioned how I’m constantly calling him broke, having no car, etc. For months he complained about how he was over the relationship and I told him if he wanted to leave he could but he never wanted to. I found out he had been cheating four days after the car talk and his excuse was me constantly bringing him down those times. Is it my fault?
