I f27 broke up with m31 for sleeping too much, have I lost my mind?
So I’ve been seeing this person for 6 months, he swears he loves and he is always complimenting me and giving me lots of affection and I too have really deep feeling for him and tried my best to make things work out
But we’ve had the same issue over and over where I tell him I feel like he’s not respecting my feelings or my needs/ acts selfishly but he doesn’t understand what I’m talking about and tells me I’m overreacting
Example (and this isn’t the only situation but I feel like it’s a good example of what I’m taking about) :
We always stay at his because he says he can’t sleep properly if he isn’t in his bed.
Already this annoys me because we all sleep better in our own bed, and I also would love to sleep in my own place all the time but I put the effort to accommodate his needs. But this means I have to constantly be the one who’s a guest, I have to always take the time to travel to his and back, bring all my skincare, a change of clothes etc. and I know it’s stupid but once you do it multiple times a week for months it becomes exhausting. And I feel like he doesn’t appreciate that
What makes this worse is that every morning I’ll wake up at a decent time (9-10pm) and he wants to stay in bed for hours (till 12/2pm or even longer honestly)
I’ve begged him over and over to try and wake up sooner when I’m around so I don’t have to feel like I’m wasting hours waiting around for him as I’m not in my own house and I’m there to spend time together. I try to tell him that it’s upsetting and it makes me feel like he doesn’t care about my time or my feelings and he just gets annoyed and brushes off what I’m trying to get across.
I don’t care if he sleeps till the next day when I’m not around if it makes him happy,
What bugs me is that he knows I came over to spend time together because he asked me, and now I’m just feeling like a tool waiting around and he doesn’t care. Eventually I often leave and go home and he either gets annoyed at me and makes me feel guilty or goes back to sleep without even saying goodbye properly.
Theres been other situations where he puts his needs above mine, and I know it’s all small things but when you spend half of your week doing what’s best of one person only it makes you feel like shit.
Obviously we often have a really good time together, and I know he really likes me etc but every time he needs to go out of his way and put effort he just doesn’t do it so I have to be the one to make sacrifices
Is this just a man thing?
