You're sure he's angry about work, but the real reason might be you.
No, it's not your fault - there are just things that men hate but will never say out loud.
For example, your habit of comparing him to an ex (even in your head) or demanding to "read your mind." Are you ready to find out what else is quietly killing your relationship?
1. You turn him into a "psychotherapist" after every fight with your girlfriend. He's ready to listen to how your colleague offended you. But when you spend three hours analyzing "what she meant," he loses patience.
Men think in solutions, not processes. It's easier for him to suggest, "Write to her how you feel," than to listen to a monologue for two hours. And yes, he'll remember it as "she's complaining about nonsense again."
2. Don't humiliate him publicly "for the sake of a joke". "He's such a klutz - he can't even hammer a nail into a wall!" - you laugh in the company of friends. And at that moment he dreams of falling through the ground.
Men value respect more than compliments. And even an innocent taunt can be a huge blow to their self-esteem - especially if it's said in public.
3. You demand "romanticism" but reject his attempts. He made a reservation at a restaurant, and you grumble: "Why waste money?". He gave flowers on the wrong day - "Have you forgotten that March 8th has already passed?"
After a couple of such phrases, he decides: it’s useless to try.
And now you’re writing on social media: “Romance is dead!”, and he’s simply afraid to take another “wrong” step.
4. You demand "honesty" and then fight over the truth. You say, "Tell me what you think!" and he admits he hates your new skirt. And you respond, "You're always critical!"
Men learn quickly: it is better to lie than to arrange a three-hour debriefing. If you want honesty, learn to accept it without hysteria.
5. You make him the "main culprit." Are you in a bad mood? He "should have known" and bought a cake. Did he forget about your anniversary? This is "proof" that he is selfish.
Men are not psychics. And if you don't tell them what you want, they'll rather walk away silently than read tea leaves.
He's not perfect, but you're not an angel either. Stop playing the victim and start changing yourself!
