Break under pressure?
| Fri, 07-23-2004 - 8:05pm |
I've been in relationship with my boyfriend for 1 year now. We love each other very much but we tend to fight over small things. To me, this is quite normal as all couples fight. We fight, and I can get over it. But to him, he tends to see our fights as serious issues and according to him, he feels stressed all the time as he doesn't know when will we fight again. And, since we always fight over small things, it makes him feel that we are just not meant for each other. According to him, a matched couple must be able to read each other's mind and understand each other well. I agree but I also understand that understanding needs time and it is not something you can have just because you want it. We fighted over a small matter few days ago and he said that he thinks we are not meant for each other and if that is so, we must let go although we love each other. I don't want to let go because I know this is not true. In the end, he suggested that we give it another try and I agree. However, I can't get his words out of my mind. I feel very pressured in thinking ways of keeping the relationship alive and also I'm afraid one mistake and that's it, it is over. I don't know how long can I cope before I crack under pressure. I don't even know whether I'll be able to smile the next time I see him. I love him and I want to keep this relationship. Can anyone tell me what should I do?

This guy is making you walk on egg shells.
