The bf asked me what was wrong and why I looked so sad. I proceeded to explain that I felt lonely this week. Not only am I physically lonely from being at home by myself most days, but mentally lonely in this crap predicament. I still see friends all the time, but it’s been nearly 10 months since I’ve been working and having day to day interactions with people.
The bf stepped away to take a shower and came back out all depressed looking. Then he proceeded to ask me “Do you have someone who can come take care of you for a week?” Wha???? He explained that he needed to get away for a week, away from the negativity, and get refreshed. I was livid.
“I tell you I’m lonely and THIS is how you respond?
He explained that he needed to get away in order to come back and be the positive person that I needed. Still tactless in how he initially presented it and I am not happy. It was an awful, hurt filled day.
I ran errands and sat in the car to call my doctor friend and her husband for advice, since they’re likely going through the same thing. Doctor friend, of course agreed with me and understood my hurt feelings, but deferred to her husband since he was the patient and also a guy. Her husband explained “what’s one week out of 52? If he can get away for a week, he’ll come back a better person for you.” Oooook. I’ll buy it, but I’m still not happy. Plus, his way of coping is to go to sleep at like 8:30pm and hibernate. Bastard.
