I Want to Be In a Healthy Loving Relationship

My bf went to lie down in the other room, and it’s only 7:30 PM. Sometimes he does that. I’ve never liked it. I always worry that something is really wrong. (And he’s been doing this for years; he did it before our trouble started - so this is not something new.)

But I know if I go in there and ask. he’ll just tell me nothing’s wrong and continue to just lie still.

If I could change one thing about him, this would be it.

Men or most of them are "fixers".

Is it fixable (whatever the problem is or his worry)? DO it!
If you can´t or still don´t know how, go to sleep.

What they do not find useful is "to talk about" if not related to "fix it".
Talking do not "solve" outside the mind.
So, it neither calm emotions if abstract form doing….

Then, why not to sleep?

Maybe if he tells you what is happening, you will feel better.
And he should do it for YOU.
But do not expect that this will make HIM feel better.
If you say that he should, he will feel dimissed.
And rightly so.
