Hiya this is a bit of a strange 1!
Me and my partner have been together for 2 years. We have a beautiful son together who is 1 year old. We live together and although things have moved very fast we love each other very much.
Ok...so heres the problem. (Can i just say that I DO love him very much!) He really irritates me, to the point where am I quite nasty to him on a daily basis. We spend quite a lot of time together but at the same time spend time apart. I say horrible things to him, I critisise him on everything he does, even if he does things in my best interest. Ive always been irritable, I was this way with my parents! Im so scared im pushing him away but at the same time I cant help it! When I lay in bed at night, i think of how cruel i have been to him during the day and try to make a promise to myself that i will try my best to lay off him a bit the next day but it just keeps going! We have our good times though, but i ruin it all the time! He treats me like a princess......maybe im just a spoilt brat! Any advice im given will be well recieved and you can just be honest and say im a total bitch too! lol.
p.s i did have post natal depression but this (i think) has passed and i am no longer on medication.
Thanks in advance

Sounds to me like you are testing him unconsciously. I think you are afraid that he might just up and leave. You are having a problem believing him when he says he loves you. I could be wrong but that’s how your post came across to me. Being aware of what you are doing is a good thing, it’s half the battle. And you are trying to correct things. Stressed out mums are told to imagine their child is ill and in need of their love and patience. It works to give the child what it needs and it makes things less stressful for the mother. It might seem a little unorthodox but perhaps you could try this with your guy. Imagine he is ill and needs your love and patience. It might help you to be a little calmer around him. Sounds like he’s trying his very best.

Best wishes.

the adive you got from roseblue i agree. Think it can be his last day with you so treat him better if you wantthis relationship to work. It seems you have a temper and you need to calm down and tell your boyfriend on the things that bother you. we all have buttons ,
