View submission: My boyfriend says I’m privileged
I would only tell my Ex she was privileged when she said something that applied to her life and not mine. She would constantly compare her finances to mine even though she was living with her parents rent free. She would say things like, “you don’t know how to save money” meanwhile my expenses at the time were 3500-4k a month and hers were less than 1000. I would remind her that she’s acting like a spoiled brat and that when she decides to leave the nest again, her savings will diminish rapidly.
It sounds to me like you might be saying something that’s triggering him. You’re not taking into account his situation in these conversations. He’ll try not to offend you but if you say things that make you come across as spoiled with no regard for his upbringing in that moment, he will tell you what you’re being.
In my Ex’s case, she was highly deluded with slight psychopathy. She was very difficult to get through to. I ended up having to cut her loose. I don’t know if this is how you act but maybe you should reflect on your role in these interactions.
Don’t listen to the majority of redditors who are quick to blame him. They will end up cat ladies. Don’t be like them. Respect your man. Sounds like he’s had a hard life and he just wants someone to take some of his stress away, not add to it.
There's nothing here!
