Need Advice. Need to vent..I don't know.
Let's begin this way.
Question....Your significant other is working late and has school that evening. So he asks you to bring him a change of clothes( his car isn't working). So you drive to his job, pick him up something to eat, sit around for 40 minutes waiting for him to finish his paper and drive him to school. You also drove him to work this morning and have to pick him up from school afterwards. After all this you would expect some appreciation at least a thank you. Know what I got a funky ass attitude because he didn't particularly like the clothes I brought him. So I call him out on that. Know what I got. Not a apology or a my bad. I got a " you should have known better" and I didn't get a thank you because "help from your boyfriend is expected" and after he got agreement from his mom he apparently is completely justified in his behavior and opinion.
The thing about LJ(yeah his name is LJ too) as that he quite often needs help...he just does but he hates asking for help. Mention the fact that you did him a favor and he gets all pissy and starts with "you don't ever have to do nothing for me again" bullshit. At this point this is a relationship that started well and is hitting the wall and I'm thinking maybe it's time to let this one go before it gets too much farther because at the present moment it's feeling a lot like the last one.
If you really believe you don't have to be thankful for the things your partner does for you just because he's your partner. I don't know what to say to that. I think that's the definition of taking someone for granted.
We got into a big fight this morning while I was driving him to work and I said some thing I shouldn't have and I can own up to the fact that I was wrong. That's more than I can say for him. I'm going to try to talk to him this evening and clear this up like adults. He'll either be receptive or he won't. If not then maybe another bites the dust.
