Have you ever had a good partner, yet they are somewhat emotionally detached?

I'm finding it a bit confusing

oh yea I know some guys like that - some guys think its not 'manly' to show emotion or show concern which is just stupid. My ex only showed emotion when it suited him, to get what he wanted etc

work life & personal life should be kept separate - can understand sometimes u can't control it but one should not affect the other

@BondGirl84: he seems to bring work stress home with him, and I told him it'll make him ill carrying on like that

@Adelh91: probably & it will take a toll on your relationship!

well, not a real partner if that counts.... I met up with a friend in Dubai two weeks ago for few days... we shared the room, shopping, hanging out, everything... it was supposed to be a kind of holiday or getaway, not romantic tho... but she was busy chatting with her family and friends all the time... once she gets internet, she's chatting and if there is no internet, she's just quiet most of the time... I am pretty sure she's not in relationship with anybody, but she was soo detached all the time... I am her best online friend though and I actually know most, if not all, of her secrets and problems!!
Does that count??

I tend to go for that type because I can't handle full on emotions, it's still hard though. Takes some coming to terms with, some people just feel on the inside.

Over time maybe that detachment can fade

I'm giving him a chance. I haven't even mention med it to him yet

If he is holding you back consider moving on @Adelh91:

@LeahLovee: it's early days yet but I won't hang around any longer than necessary

I think I'm that way. Lol.

Absolutely. To a T. But she was an Aquarius though. And emotional detachment is a definite trait in Aquarius.

Oh, he's a Taurus though :(

@Adelh91: They are pretty detached too.

@Dichotomy: yeah I figured as much. Sometimes I feel like he doesn't care about me, yet he can be possessive, and it doesn't make sense to be possessive about something you don't care about?

How to deal with it. How is it not confusing?
