Brazil relationship advise

General discussion

Hello, i am 32(f) and my boyfriend is 36(m) he is Brazilian. I just spent a whole month with him in brazil. I want to know if what he said was normal. I could tell he was upset at somethings but didn’t know exactly what. At dinner one night he said there were some things that annoyed him, like i didn’t always but the seat on the toilet down before flushing, that my clothes that were folded on suitcase, or i left my pjs folded on the bed. I know its his space and i am trying to be out of his way, its not like a had my own dresser or anything. Or like i didn’t make the bed right away or there are dishes i was planning to do the next morning( he leaves his dishes to the next morning). Any ways what he said was that culturally Brazilians read between the lines and i should just know what was making him upset and he shouldnt have to tell me i should be able to figure that out. That brazilians dont talk about these kind of things to keep the peace. To me this seems like an unfair expectation i dont have a crystal ball, and when he told me what upset him i made the adjustments. Am i unreasonable for thinking that is emotional immature. He also would say things like need to use my head because i got his blender-ball twisted in the dish rack on accident i never had gotten mine stuck before so i didn’t think it was a problem and i was sorry (it was easy to get out it jist needed to be twisted) and i told him that and he goes you do t need to get it stuck to know it could get stuck. (Okay? Its just a blender bottle i wont put it there anymore it was an accident)
