My boyfriend and I watched this movie today about the fall of Hitler and it was (naturally) pretty disturbing, you know? People killing themselves left and right by the end.

And he's like all in a cheery mood at the end of it cause it was so historically accurate (oh goody! I love dictators!) and he wants to go out. But I'm feeling kind of sick and wonky because I've just watched 2 hours of people blowing their brains out- I was just kind of feeling weird before that too, weird in that way where you want to talk and be comforted, you know? So I asked him to stay for at least a little bit which he did, but then he made me feel bad by saying that I get in moods- which is true at times, and I try not to be a downer- but this is coming from someone who virtually never gets in a mood, be it sad or disturbed. So I feel like he has no empathy for it, and doesn't know how to cheer me up at all. So I mentioned this, how he sometimes makes a small bad mood of mine into a big one by ignoring it. I don't feel like I'm horribly moody, any more than any other girl out there, anyways.

I don't know, its all so weird and funky. It's not like the biggest deal in the world, and its good that we can talk about this stuff without fighting. But I just feel like is it that much to ask for your s.o. to want to keep you company when you're feeling down? I don't think I'm unreasonably moody, I go out with him all the time, like three times a week and he gets all kinds of chances to go out and have fun. We were planning on going out clubbing the next day. I asked him if my moods bothered him a lot, and he was like "I don't mind, except when the timing is bad". Well, welcome to the real world- you can't expect everyone to be cheerful, especially when you just showed them a movie that to 80% of the world would be disturbing!

I don't really have many questions about this and like I said before, its not that big a deal. Its just kind of frustrating for me sometimes, and its hard to explain subtle things like moods to people. I think its kind of a pretty typical guy/girl thing we have going on. I'm kind of of two minds: part of me feels guilty for being moody, and part of me feels like he should cut me some slack. But anyways, I'll stop with this long winded ramble now. Has anybody else had this issue come up with their S.O. before?
