As humans, we have individual minds, we reason, feel and see things our way, we are selfish by default (This is why people cheat, one being so selfish that he/she can't understand how his/her partner would feel). It takes wisdom and selflessness for us to move out of our comfort zones and be able to compromise and accommodate others, putting ourselves in their shoes in order to understand them. - if it was me, how would I feel? "Do unto others as you would like them to do to you" principle.
Out of my own experience with my ex, she was a woman who would do something I didn't agree to, then smile later, expecting its all good, and that I shouldn't be getting mad about it. Stuff like burnt food or execess salt, she wouldn't apologize or find an alternative. So, I should fix it or find an alternative. Stuff like me insisting she carry a jacket when going out just incase there is change of weather, she would ignore that, come home late, all cold, then start wheezing getting all sick since she was asthmatic and then i am now forced to take care of her, missing work. To me, that is arrogance and ignorance, I am a reasonable person, though, I can't let go whatever beats logic, she never wanted to put herself in my shoes, always ignoring things am unhappy about. it continued that way, her pretending its nothing living her life. Then she will complain I don't love her anymore, that I sulk all the time, distance grew between us, always arguing most of the time, me: I have issues I want us to deal with, Her: those are non issues to her, so am getting mad for nothing. So, in most cases I was forced to remain silent and angry.
Back to your question, your issues may or maynot relate to this past experience, so if there are things you have been doing, which to you, there non issues but him they are, don't assume "he needs to grow" or "get over it" that he need to change when he is tired of getting mad, that he's just getting mad for nothing, you standing your ground, him standing his will lead you nowhere. The distance between you will widen, no sex anymore, no appreciation anymore, no respect, no love and by the end no relationship. You have to learn to compromise, respect your man, most men like feel respected, it's part of how we are wired. If you want to be with him, change what you have been doing. Learn to say sorry.

Move on with your life and let him get through his phase.
I’d get hate from people but ehhhh. So tell me something, why when a woman shows depressive signs, she is shown support but when a man does it, he outright has to bottle it up? And the fact that some women is saying to lay down the law is beyond me. Anyway, first of all, if you cannot handle someone with depression, there is no reason for you to stay there. Love is not the only thing needed in a relationship. And you’re not fit to handle it with him. Second, be there as a friend. Encourage him to seek help (if you haven’t already). Like him, you got your life I get that, but “laying down the law” or forcing him out of the zone, is not right. Dude is probably in his head too much and don’t know how to begin to fix it.
Tell him how you feel, and communicate what you want from him and the relationship.
You don't need to put up with that.
But it's not fair to assume he knows you're annoyed by it. You said yourself you found it cute before - maybe he, probably not even consciously, keeps doing it because he got a positive reaction the first time. Or, more likely, he's just under a lot of stress right now.
Talk to him honestly and draw a line.

Find a man that deserves you.
Find a man that is mature enough to handle you.
Find a man who knows how to be a man.
Wait for him to come alongside you.Did you ask him why he was sulking? If you did and he's still sulking then he probably is being immature.
If this was the other way round and a man said oh she’s sulking, she’s being too emotional then everyone would say she is entitled to have those emotions. Just because he’s a bloke doesn’t mean he shouldn’t be able to express his emotions. It may be stupid to you but it’s different in his head, it could be much bigger in his head. If you’re really that concerned consult him about it, not a load of strangers
You gottaay the law down and tell him not to be sulking just say stop sulking or were gonna take a break that'll have him straighten out his sulking attitude if he really cares about you
He is probably angry or upset about something in his life. He needs to face it and make peace with it. If he's not then he needs to stop being such a pussy
Give him these
Tell him look life ain't fair ain't never gonna be the so
Oner you get over it the better off you'll be but you better get with it or I'm outta hereCould be a byproduct of virus. 2 people spending too much time together in constant contact can have adverse effects in an otherwise good relationship.
Did you talk about his ongoing mood with him? If so, what did he say?
The solution may be getting a mature boyfriend or wait until he grows up.
As in being a cry baby because you had an argument? Seems strange to keep doing that, maybe he has hidden emotional problems
Nothing
He has to admit he has a problem, on his ownWelcome to this entitled generation swiss cheese skin can't say a thing without offending a animal or humans
