quistis Posted October 5, 2005 Posted October 5, 2005 Lately my BF of 4+ years is grouchy a lot and he tries to turn things around to make them my fault when they weren't. An example today, he was tired last night so he didn't stay up after he got home from work to type up this list he needed for work today. He had dictated the list onto a recorder and it's basically a bunch of numbers and parts which all seem foreign to me. I made the mistake of offering to help him out with some of it it during my break today, so he brought it in and we loaded the .wav files onto my computer and I started typing the list while listening to his dictation of the parts numbers. I guess I wasn't going fast enough for him because he became irritated when I would have to stop his recording to catch up with how fast he was talking when he recorded it. I told him I could work faster if he wasn't standing over me criticizing me and he got mad and said he would never ask me for help again because I had offered to do it all (no I didn't) and now I let him down and he wasn't prepared for his job today. It's like this with everything lately. He gets mad and I get the blame. He loses something and I get the blame for somehow misplacing it when I didn't even touch it. Is he just an ass?
Outcast Posted October 6, 2005 Posted October 6, 2005 Is he under a lot of stress? People often get grumpy when the world weighs heavily on them. Have a talk with him and ask if anything's going on at work that's stressing him out.
