My wife has fibromyalgia among other things. It's not as acute now as it was, plus she is on pain meds. I understand how chronic pain and fatigue can make life miserable and depressing. A partner must not be selfish if they have a partner suffering from this disease, or any other disease.

@ScreamingFox Man some people live on different planets! I can understand that it is difficult to live with someone with physical or mental troubles, but you cope. You adjust your expectations. I think some men feel personal failure it the SO isn't happy and feel attacked or something. I never met the guy so I have no idea what's going through his head.

I dealt with my wife’s chronic illness for years. Admittedly it wasn’t easy but I made the commitment and was not going to walk away. The stress caused me A-fib, the guilt still remains that I could have done more.
It seems to me that either he’s afraid to deal with it or too self centered to care. Either way, time to move on and live your life.

Maybe it's just overload
I don't really like to share my petty work problems - in fact when I'm home I want a diversion - I don't need to talk about that nonsense...it just annoys me...
And being supportive 24/7 is not easy
