Am I being too sensitive?

Question

Me and my boyfriend was suppose to go on a date yesterday but never went. I texted him all yesterday and he ignored me half the day and when he did text me he gave me dry responses. I asked him was we going on a date he said ‘no enjoy the rest of your day. I’ll give you space’. Because I did something the day before that rubbed him the wrong way. I was hurt because when i tried to call to talk about it but put me on dnd saying he was eating with his family. I don’t understand I though we was all good. I just ended up texting him to leave me alone since I was upset and we are long distant so we don’t even visit each other often. I don’t understand why he’d do that.

No, you aren't being too sensitive. Not at all. You're boyfriend is being an asshole. There is no excuse for him acting the way he did. This would be unacceptable if you two were 14. This is some little-kid-stupid-shit.

If you said something that rubbed him the wrong way, then he should have been willing to talk to you about it. Not played stupid games and claiming he was busy. If he is so upset that he needs some time and space. That's fine. But he owed it to you to tell you that's what he needed. It's an asshole thing to do, to let you assume your date is still on, only to ignore you, and then cancel at the last minute (like a total jerk in what he said when cancelling last minute).

You SHOULD be all good. You had a disagreement/fight whatever. You were hoping to talk about what happened with hopes of mending things and moving forward. USUALLY a half-decent boyfriend would also want to talk, in hopes of mending things. Or at worst, will explain that he needs some time and space before trying to mend things.

The only reason you're not all good, is because your boyfriend is being an asshole. For no good reason.

You aren't overly sensitive.

I know I don't know you... but you seem sane, caring and kind. I'm quite sure you deserve better than this idiot.
