Long-term boyfriend has attitude problem

Damn. Guess I’m not alone on this decade old thread. Sounds like we’re all in the same place.

Obviously break up. How is this even a question?

I met a lady who was a charm at first. Became awful later. Run away.

He is easily angered and annoyed and I am getting tired of it. He huffs and puffs/ rolls his eyes during normal conversations and it makes me feel bad. He is also quick to get angry at small things. I've tried talking to him and telling him how it makes me feel, but nothing changes. I love him but lately I've been fantasizing about leaving him. I think I could find someone who is more positive and doesn't make me feel like I'm annoying for initiating conversation. Leaving him would change my life dramatically though. What would you do? Is he going to change? Is he maybe depressed?

He has contempt for you. There is no fixing that. End it.

Who cares if it is depression. Break up with him if he's being a pissy huffy jerk.

However-

Its been 6 years. Things aren't getting better. And from my experience, things get tougher after marriage especially if you have kids. So your relationship isn't great, its trending downward, and in 10 years things will generally be more challenging with fewer "romantic butterflies".

You do the math.

LOL. There is no reason not to be quick with the DTMFA when he's 1) just a BF and 2) acting like a donkey.

Word economy, PP. Try it.

He is over you but doesn't want to be the one to end it and is trying to get you to do it. My ex husband acted like this for about a year before he finally left me because I just kept taking it. Do with this information what you will.

Sounds like a seven-year itch. Also, I'm surprised when people think the grass is greener because I don't know a ton of folks who have traded up, especially after leaving around the seven-year mark.

Being alone is trading up in a situation like this.

Inquiring minds want to know. Are you happily married to him now? Married and then divorced?

This. If you ever want to be married, leave now.
