Unhappy Boyfriend said he feels like a therapist or caregiver sometimes? - June 8th 2015, 04:54 AM

Hey all,

Long story short my boyfriend and I got into a heated conversation last night. In that conversation he said that sometimes he feels like a therapist/care giver to me more than a boyfriend. I mean.. I can understand that.. My depression and anxiety is a HUGE factor in our relationship. Sometimes it feels like it's a third person, just ruining everything. Now I don't know what I could do to make him not feel this way? It hurt me, but he said it was his honest feelings (and he never wanted to tell me that in the first place but it came out.)

So my question is, has anyone else ever faced this issue? What did you do? And if you haven't, what would you do if you were me? Stop telling him some of my issues? Stop being so open and hide my feelings? I'm so confused.

(P.s sorry for any typos I'm on my phone.)
