I’m in a long-distance relationship. We’re both in love with each other, but the problem is I think my boyfriend is emotionally insensitive, while I’m emotionally active. We have issues like this, not even about cheating. I’m the type that calls every day and every time, I update about every little development. I’m very active in my relationship, and he’s my best friend. The only problem I have is that I do most of the calling. Mind you, he calls, but I call more, and that is not a problem for me, just that on the days I decide not to call, I won’t hear from him the whole day. It really bothers me. Sometimes he’ll call later at night and say he had a long day, or no call at all. So something happened today. As usual, I left him to call me today but he didn’t call.
When we spoke yesterday, he told me he was going to be very busy today, but I felt he should have at least texted in between to update me about his day. I mean, I’m a busy person too. So I later called at night around 10, and I was like, “So that’s how we’ll be doing now? You can’t call me.” Then he got mad and asked if I’ll ever ask about his day, that he had a very bad day and I should be his peace but I’m always complaining. He yelled and ended the call. I don’t even know how I feel, like on my bad days, he’s the first person I call. I didn’t know he had a bad day, so why take it out on me? He makes me feel like I’m the only one making an effort. I’m thinking of telling him we’re not compatible and break up. Or should I apologize or give him space? I’m just confused.
