Why is he so mad that I don't wanna talk about it?

[Anonymous]

So I had a little bit of an upsetting day today but it was manageable though I was a little down. My boyfriend noticed I wasn't my usual self and asked what I was upset about. I told him it was nothing and assured him he didn't do anything and I just didn't wanna recall the memory. And he got upset and said he shouldn't have asked and left to go home. I don't get why he's mad even though my mood has nothing to do with him and now i'm even further in the dumps. Did I upset him by not telling him why I was upset? It's not like I denied being upset I just didn't wanna go into detail on the issue.

It obviously wasn't nothing and you obviously didn't want to include him. Maybe better to say you're not ready to talk about it yet.
Maybe he was frustrated he couldn't fix it because he didn't understand the problem.

That would depend on how moody you were being to him! If you were giving him the silent treatment. No wonder he went home! Even if he wasn’t the cause of it!

I wasn't giving him the silent treatment I was participating in his conversation. Sure i wasn't bubbly as usual but I didn't ignore him. I just declined his offer in talking about it.

Wishing you good luck with the relationship. Thank you for the MHO!

If you don't tell him why you're unhappy he can' help you.

Can't I just wanna wallow in despair, I'm not mad at him not was I being grumpy or frustrated with him.

You can, but most people prefer not to.
