I went to my boyfriend's house the other day and he was acting like a total jerk. I mean he wouldn't even get up from watching tv to greet me. He acted cold and distant to me. I love him but I was really hurt by this. Then when things got physical he wanted to try something new that made me uncomfortable. Halfway through I stopped. I said it felt weird and I didn't want to do it. He got mad and said he didn't understand. He just said forget it we will just watch tv. He really hurt me and I starting crying. He just looked at me with a blank face and had no clue about why I was crying. Really?! What is wrong with him? Is he a sociopath?

What exactly did he try that brought you to tears?

It could just be that he's a dick.

Probably just a dick. Doesn't respect you, doesn't care, objectify you as his sex toy, etc..

Well I don't think it's necessarily helpful to use a label like sociopathy, but he does sound low in empathy, which is probably going to cause a variety of social problems as well as difficulties in your relationship. The other explanation would be that he thinks behaving like this will in some way make him more attractive to you (bearing in mind that there's a fair bit of "women prefer men who are abusive to them" propaganda out there).

 

How old is he, and long have you been seeing him for? Questions to ask yourself are, was the behaviour out of character for him? Do you think he has qualities that make it worthwhile persevering with him? If this is generally the way he behaves, is there any reason for you to see it eventually developing into a more respectful relationship?

Any guy that makes you feel like **** because you don't wanna do something sexually is an ass. Have you been dating long? Were you fighting during that time? Whatever the answer is, think twice about this guy!
