My boyfriend and I have been together for almost two years now. We’ve been through a lot together, but nothing has ever been as difficult as this. As the pandemic has taken its toll on the world, it has taken its toll on us as well.
My boyfriend was working part-time before the pandemic hit, but now he’s stuck at home with me and all he wants to do is rest. I understand that he needs the time to relax, but I can’t help but feel a bit neglected and frustrated.
I’m a stay-at-home mom with two small children, and it’s hard enough for me to get through the days without much help. Now that my boyfriend is home all the time, I’m starting to feel the strain of having to do everything myself. I can’t help but feel a bit resentful that he’s not helping more around the house.
It doesn’t help that my boyfriend seems content to just lie around and watch TV or play video games all day. Meanwhile, I’m stuck dealing with the kids, cleaning the house, and trying to keep everyone fed and entertained. I just want some help, but my boyfriend doesn’t seem to understand that.
To make matters worse, I find myself getting upset and frustrated over the smallest things. I know I’m being unreasonable, but it’s hard for me to keep my emotions in check when all I want is for him to help out. I can’t help but feel like he doesn’t care about me or the kids when he just sits there and does nothing.
My boyfriend tries to be understanding, but I can tell he’s getting frustrated with me. He tries to tell me that I need to take a step back and give him some space, but it’s hard for me to do that when all I want is for him to help out.
I know it’s not fair of me to expect him to do more than he already is, but I can’t help but feel a bit neglected and unappreciated. I can’t help but feel like he’s not taking this pandemic seriously enough and that he’s just taking advantage of the situation.
I know I need to try to be more understanding and give him some space, but it’s hard when all I want to do is cry. I’m so tired of being the only one doing everything and I can’t help but feel like my boyfriend isn’t taking this pandemic seriously enough.
It’s been a difficult few months, and I know that it’s been hard for both of us. We’re both trying our best to make it work, but it’s hard when all I want to do is cry.
