I F20 have been with my now fiancé M24 for two years next month. Throughout our entire relationship he’s been emotionally distant whenever it comes to any issues between us. Let me clarify. Whenever I bring up even the smallest thing he did that upset me he just bows his head down at the floor and stares. He does this even when he initiates the conversation and asks me what’s wrong. A lot of the time I don’t even wanna bring up the small things but he’ll ask me what’s wrong until I do. I’ve tried multiple different ways of coming about these issues to no avail. If I want to have a conversation I have to sit there and ask him how he feels about what I just said and even then most of the time I get “idk” back. He has an “I’m sorry I suck” attitude and we can’t get past it no matter how hard I reassure him. It’s gotten to the point where I won’t try to bring up anything anymore because it just makes me feel like an inconvenience and a villain. I’m thinking about taking some space for a while and staying with some friends. Has that helped anyone in the past in a situation like this? Is there anything I can do to help him? Any advice would help! I’ve suggested therapy but he doesn’t want to go nor can we really afford it. I’m not sure how much more begging and pleading I can do.
