Does this sound normal?
Relationship Stress / by ivoryBunny7465
Last post

...See more I've been in this cohabiting relationship of 16 yrs and days like today when I've had a tough time with family issues, I tried to share & discuss my pain with my partner. The response I always get is silence and keeping his distance . He can see me so low in tears that I cannot find the energy to function...and yet he leaves or retreats to another part of the house. I find this so painful - it's the salt on the wound. He never has my back nor is he capable of comforting me even though he can clearly see how hurt I am. He has done this when my dad died ...when I really needed him .So I am wondering if other people experience this and if It's normal for some people . It magnify's the pain I was already in and makes me feel so isolated -lonely and depressed.
