How would you handle your significant other acting like a whole different person?

[texas_giiirl30]

So my boyfriend since he started working has been acting like an asshole towards me. I have noticed a whole change in him completely he's been constantly critizing me at times then just not talking to me hardly at all for days. I have also noticed when I try to lay on him or sit next to him he'll move away. I don't know what Im doing wrong or why he's acting like that. It's weird to be in a relationship with someone going on 7 years and you go and pick them up from work and they attack you if you ask how their day was, he tells me he hates his job and not to ask him anything about it. Then when we go home just ignore me all day long. It's really affecting me and I don't know what to do.

If this was your partner how would you go about it?

I'm all for being there for my partner if he's going through rough times, but then again, that doesn't give him the right to be an asshole towards me. I'd give him his space for a while, and then break it off. You don't deserve to be treated like that 😒

It's the job. I get that way during my camp before fights. I have to diet, cut weight, and workout constantly on top of a full time job. If I'm getting pissed over something I love doing, I can only imagine how he feels after dealing a job that he obviously hates. He probably has a hostile work environment as well, from what you're describing. Respect his space, but be there when he needs you. Validate him and make him feel that you're supportive.

Confront him about it, what could he possibly do if you do so, stop talking to you?

[texas_giiirl30]

I have and apparently I'm too sensitive and he's just introverted. I don't know it's all very weird.

[TheMajesticKing777]

Then do what you wanna do that you know he wouldn't be interested, it's the perfect time to do so, hopefully he feels the vibes of you not chasing him and he will at the least confront you about something, I don't know what to tell you tbh cause you can't force someone to be a certain way if they don't want too

Could be his work environment that stressing him out I know mine sure does working 11 hours aday fucks me over done times

It's not you, honey. It's the job. He needs to start looking for another job elsewhere. I can tell that this isn't healthy for him.

Every relationship comes with an expiry date.

I cut off this already dead relationship... if my partner behave like this.
