Yes, don't do this. It really isn't fair to him for you to be letting him know about this.
I think that I definitely have moods that come and go. Sometimes it may mean many other things, and good for you for considering other options before striking out at your boyfriend.
ie: you know what they say? We often hurt those that are closest to us.
So, if I'm having a bad day or general state of mine...I lump him into that category as well....even though it may not really have anything to do wtih him. But...because I am close to him...it seems natural to consider that he might be the problem! But, maybe it is that :
- I haven't had enough sleep
- I need more exercise (yay for positive endorphins)
- Have I been eating properly
- PMS.
- The weather has been crappy often makes me sullen
- not doing enough independent thinking / activities / inadvertendly (and usually subconsciously) placing blame on him for the difficulties I may be having making decisions
- OR - maybe it is that the relationship needs a change? Have you had any forward motion? Discussed the future? If it feels like the relationship lacks a future that shows growth from where you're at now that may be an underlying issue (that's just might be mine! - I haven't figured out the solution yet - cuz I'm too afraid to talk about it!)
- If you see each other every 2-3 weeks you may be developing more space and distance from each other that makes it more difficult to connect with him.
just some thoughts.
