Girlfriend thinks I don't share enough details, what should I do?

[Anonymous]

I've been with my girlfriend for about one year now and in general our relationship is very good. However, recently she seems to think that I'm not sharing enough about my life with her. I'm really at a loss because I know all of the details that happen in my life and I really don't think I hold back much of it from her.

For example, a bought a book and for some reason on that day our conversation went a certain direction and I didn't get to tell her about it. A few weeks later, she finds out that I've been reading it and gets really upset that I never told her about it... Does that sound reasonable? What should I do?

That doesn't sound reasonable at all. and tell her that you think you're sharing all the important things and if you forget something, it's not a big deal.

Well... I've tried that and she doesn't seem to like it very much. She takes it like I'm trying to disregard her emotions and that I don't value her feelings. I really do want to understand why she feels this way, but I just can't seem to see what I'm doing wrong...

I don't think you're doing anything wrong. If you haven't asked her directly, you should. I don't know what insecurities she has. Take care

Sharing all of your purchase history seems excessive, as long as you're sharing what you think is important in your life that should be enough

Sounds very controlling. Major red flag...
