How do I tell my boyfriend that he is too sensitive?

[lakegirl28]

I wear the pants in the relationship. All he does is complain about things I say and do, I ask why he's with me, if everything bothers him. Then he acts fine and wants to clear things up. I don't know what I'm supposed to tell him, honestly bc I'm thinking of breaking up... But I don't know if it's necessary over that 🤷🏻‍♀️ he says he wants to get married soon but I don't feel he's mature enough. Pls help.

You don't (in my opinion) tell him that. You're thinking of breaking up, give that real serious thought because what I hear with what you're saying is your two different people, and this is simply the way he is, so can you accept him as he is, or do you need to find someone you're more compatible with and more your type? And if that's the case, you simply break up with him and tell him that the relationship isn't working for you, that you're two different people and leave it at that. Don't "point the figure" and tell him what you don't like about him, there's no need for that (no need to hurt him more, and he also my "try to change" or convince you of it, and you don't want that). Just the bottom line. You're sorry and it's simply not working. Wish him the best kind of thing.

If he wants to marry you soon it all depends on how long you two have been dating? I would say he does sound immature and he should maybe seek out therapy and get the help he sounds depressed hey that is not fun to be sad all the time and if your planning to break up, do it with just remaining friends, Lord only knows what he would do?

Thanks for Most Helpful Guy :)

just break up with him if he's not your type. it's that simple.

I think you should go with your first thought and break up. Chances of him changing our thin to none. If you want to put up with whiny little bitch es of your life stick with him

[lakegirl28]

Alright!

[jimmy2]

You will find by wearing the pants that you will not have a great marriage or realtionship

[lakegirl28]

I agree, thanks!

Move on… All men these days are to feminized. Bad boys are making a killing.

🙌🏼

[UniquelyBasic]

Are you naturally more dominant in any relationship?

[lakegirl28]

Not really:/

[UniquelyBasic]

It doesn't seem like he fits you and if he's not changing then I think it might be best to move on and find someone more your speed. But you already made up your mind on this situation.

[bamesjond0069]

Um he sounds really shitty. Just breakup and dont date some overly sensitive immature guy next time. Smh.

[lakegirl28]

I'm going to 👍🏻

[altdbob]

Sounds like he wants you to take charge. Show him a picture of a male chastity device and ask him if he would like you to lock him in one. His reaction should let you know how you want to proceed.

[lakegirl28]

😂😂😂that's good

[HighValue]

What specifically does he complain about?

[lakegirl28]

That I joke too much, but that's just my personality 😂 and a lot of other crap, mostly that.

[HighValue]

What kind of jokes? Are they the type that are insulting or make him feel bad abo8ut himself?
Do you make insulting joke about him in front of other people?

[lakegirl28]

No, I make sexual jokes or just normal ones. I never insult him and we don't hang out with anybody.

[lakegirl28]

We just have a different sense of humor, what I find funny, he doesn't at all.

[HighValue]

I think you two should sit down and talk about what you both want out of life. See if your long term goals are even compatible, and discuss what your expectations of each other are going forward and how each of you sees the relationship progressing over the next few years.

You are both young and may have difficulty adjusting to what each other wants/needs to stay happy in a relationship.

what other crap?

[lakegirl28]

Anything I like or I talk about, he doesn't necessarily want to hear so he complains.
