How do I tell my boyfriend I'm not happy?

It may be hard to get up the confidence, but directly is always best. Try to do it with some sort of goal, something you want to get out of it. If you have intent going into it, it shows him you care. Try to figure out why you aren't happy before telling him. If you find a specific thing that you find makes you unhappy, ask him about that. Being as specific as possible will help him listen to you rather than make him upset. If you're looking for a specific outcome, phrase your questions directing the conversation there.

Mutual communication and understanding are essential in any relationship, so make sure both of you sit down and have a heart to heart with each other. Let him know the reasons why you feel unhappy, solve it together. Never forget that it is the both of you against the problem, never you against him or vice versa. It could also help if you were to be straightforward with him as opposed to beating about the bush to avoid any miscommunication or misunderstanding. Even so, do not act harshly. Talk things through calmly even if things get heated. Acting in a fit of rage would only aggravate the situation.

I have found that having an honest conversation doesn't always go as badly as I thought it would. If I am unhappy about an aspect or aspects of my relationship I ask if I can have a conversation with my partner at. Stone that suits us both so we give each other our full attention. One question I always ask myself is 'Am I unhappy enough to end the relationship or is this a problem that can be worked on'. Deciding if you still want to be in the relationship is the first step. The rest will follow in due course. Not being able to communicate at these times and avoiding the issues can easily be done. It's best to nip it in the bud though and move forward if possible.

To tell my boyfriend I’m not happy, I talk him through how I’ve felt and what makes me feel that way. After that we can discuss where to go from there. That makes it easier because it has open communication and I’m not pretending to feel a certain way about him that I’m not feeling. Overall it just leads to a better relationship and/or a better friendship in the future. Communication is important. And if I was feeling a certain way, I would make it my top priority to make him aware of my changing feelings, emotions, or thoughts.

some people are clueless if you're trying to 'ease in' what you're trying to say. honestly, be straight up about it - but not to the point where you're disrespecting him. for example, if you feel unhappy, ask if your partner can sit down with you, so that the two of you can have a discussion. it's best to do this in person rather that chat because messages can be interpreted differently. you need to be sure of what you are saying, don't let your partner play the guilt trip cup - or doubt yourself with what's making YOU unhappy. of course you'd need to be mindful, and choose what you say carefully - so both parties are calm and on the same page. address the situation with what is bothering you, see what you both can do, and it will work if you guys try working around it. if you two often disagree, there are too many arguments, you both don't reach a decision... sometimes that's okay. time will fix things. BUT... if this happens excessively, then you may want to rethink the relationship. would you rather brutal honesty or dishonesty?

It’s best to let your significant other know while being honest, brave and compassionate. The situation is tough but gentle handling will ultimately serve you well in these unsettling moments. Remember to speak openly about any problems and look for a solution without casting shame or judgement. Although it can be painful, embarrassing and difficult, it’s always best to address these situations with total respect. Everyone deserves an honest truth. If you’re able to do so, try to clearly outline your problems in detail to avoid confusion. Although these circumstances may be uncertain, try to reach a conclusion which doesn’t leave any loose ends.

i know it's hard for us to utter unequivocally how we feel, we might think we're too egoist, aggressive, or intrusive. Many times we're more comfortable by telling it discreetly (talking roundabout), yet your boyfriend can't get it. Women are more perceptive if there are problems or things off, because since ages they're created by that instinct. So it seems you might want to tell your boyfriend, so he will understand you and mend it right? There are many ways and i'm not sure which fit for you, but there's a good why which "about me". Instead of making your boyfriend feel you're shoving them on edge (which makes them defensive before hearing you out). make them understand how you feel: 1.pinpoint their behavior 2. Put your interpretation 3. How you feel about it 4. Consequences of your feelings And try to keep on track with the present issue, not accumulating for the whole. Lastly, You might want to consider reading a book "Why Men lie and Women cry", to open your mind and understand each other characteristic. There are times instead of changing what you can't (after having hopes yet being spoiled), you could try accept it. I hope the best for both of you!

Since it can be a difficult feeling to convey, I'd recommend talking about your feelings with another person you trust or journaling about it before telling your boyfriend. That way, you can organize your thoughts and feelings. Sometimes when jumping into the conversation, you might say things you don't mean or say things that the other person might take to offense. Organizing your thoughts and feelings beforehand could make it easier to articulate your honest feelings with him. It will also be easier to communicate in the conversation because you will be prepared and more confident in how you are feeling.

You have to be honest. It is scary, but being honest is the best thing for both of you. Maybe try to assess how they are feeling in the relationship. It's equally as much about his feelings as it is about yours, but at the end of the day if you are not happy. You have to let him know. Perhaps talking to a friend who has gone through something similar that you know of, or even possibly to your parents to get some advice would be helpful on how to properly approach the situation. Make sure of course to be respectful and kind. This is not your fault.

Find a moment where you both can be relaxed, preferably, not in a public space, and explain in detail how you feel when this or that happens, and propose solutions. Ask for feedback and make sure that he understands how you want your relationship to be. If you do not know what you want from this relationship, first think about it. Is it possible that this relationship isn't just the only factor why you are not happy? What else makes you not to be happy? Can your boyfriend help? Try to stablish what is exactly your idea of happiness.
