My boyfriend cries only infront of god

...See more Hello there ! I’m Mandy I’ve been in a LDR for almost two years now. I spend every possible second of the free time I have with my boyfriend who is from another country and he is a devoted catholic where as I am a Buddhist. us being in a relationship has never used to have an issue regarding coming form different cultures or religions. I have grown to appreciate his and so does he. But given the light of a recent situation where he said that he only cry infront of god and I’ve never caught him crying informer of me more than once bothers me a lot he is a good man , he’s there for me everytime and I’d like to return the gesture by being there at his lowest. But he says he’s not used to cry infront of people and when I tried to talk about it he said that I should be happy that he shares that he cries. It isn’t a sign of strength to cry in front of anyone , specially for a man is what he said. He also said he will not talk about it again. It makes me feel like a useless girlfriend when I can’t be there for him at his lowest. What should I do? Is this something normal that all guys do?
Emotional independence

...See more Hello there! I have learned recently that I’m very much emotionally dependent on anyone important in my life. It took me so long to realize this. I have used my boyfriend, my best friend and my mom as shields to avoid facing issues in my day-to-day life my whole life. MAs of recently, I have been so grossly dependent on my boyfriend for attention and advice , I can’t spend a minute without him literally on call. He works a desk job and I even made him keep me on call. Whenever there is a slight mishap in our relationship, I overthink everything and put myself through a hard time , usually for no reason. I have come to understanding that this emotional dependency keeps me from functioning like a normal human being. If anyone has gone through this and come out to learn to control how to depend on myself , or if you have advice to point me in the right direction I would greatly appreciate it.

...See more Hello there ! I’m Mandy. I am an undergraduate student who’s going through a tough time. I’d like help from people who have gone through periods of depression , anxiety and had an issue of overthinking. It all impacts my life a lot. I’m always out of focus in the day time and I make stupid childish mistakes like dropping something or saying something I regret. At night I lay on my bed for hours and I got to sleep early but I hardly get any. I routinely wake up around 2:00-3:00 in the morning and sometimes have panic attacks. I have depressive episodes at least once a month for a week or so. I tr to eat healthy, i have walks on the treadmill and sometimes runs. I feel good at that moment but after I fall right into depression. I have 2-3 friends and I spend time with them daily. When I’m with them I’m happy and content. I am in a relationship as well but I’m afraid I’m too clingy and overthinking. i would like some help from any of you. Thank you.
