He says I worry and apologize too much?

[Anonymous]

My boyfriend is 21. I'm 18, we've been together for about 6 months now. He's really sweet and nice to me but he claims I worry too much and say sorry too much. Ill admit I say sorry over things that aren't even my fault (And I'm working on that) But my worrying habits I don't find that bad. It used to be bad until he threatened to break up because it got so bad. Now he STILL thinks I worry WAY more than I actually do. I've told him I don't worry as much as he thinks but he doesn't believe me. What am I supposed to do? Act like I don't worry about anything?

Yes, act like you don't worry about anything. You think you are the only person that worries? Everyone worries about something, by letting it get to you, you are showing a bit of immaturity.

Regarding the apologizing, that is SO annoying, let me explain why. Normally people apologize when they have done something wrong and it is their way of saying, "I screwed up, please don't be mad at me." Now lets say your boyfriend stubs his toe, and you are just sitting their, I know you feel sorry for him and you don't like the fact that he is in pain, but when you say "I'm sorry" you are essentially saying "I know you blame me and I hope you forgive me" and that is downright insulting to him.

You can try and change for him or just be yourself and find someone who likes you just as you are...
