I’m extremely upset right now. I’ve just got my period and I look like Nosferatu. I’ll also be getting paid in a few days so I don’t have much cash but my boyfriend offered to get us food. I gave him 20 dollars and asked he get me a cheese burger. Ten minutes later he calls saying he went another direction and he was feeling more a kebab or fried chicken, to which I was clearly annoyed and could’ve communicated better but I just said do what you want and hung up. I feel like every time I ask for something, instead of just doing it he comes back with a hundred other options.

I followed up with a text saying I really did want a cheeseburger but nothing. He comes back with a ton of fried chicken that just smells so fried and I hate re-iterating but I’m on my first day of my period and everything hurts and sucks. He says I’m starting drama for nothing by telling him he didn’t listen to what I want and that it hurt my feelings. He said I told him to get whatever so he thought the burger wasn’t that important. I told him I only said that because he specifically went as far from the burger place as possible on purpose.

What am I supposed to do with this? I feel like our problems are always because he never truly takes me seriously and it always ends up with me in tears feeling like I’m asking for too much when really all I want is to be considered. Am i being insane? Probably a little, but it’s just so hurtful that anytime I request something specifically he will manage to not get that one thing.
