Am i overreacting???

hi there. I had a few unhappy relationship. I kinda lost my trust in men a bit by the fact my ex's weren't trustworthy people.

anyway back to my current,, me and my partner have been together for around a year. we moved in together nearly 8 months ago as he wanted. we had ups and downs. we talk about our future, having family and so forth. he's saving for those future plans. He says he loves me but he quite often does things which annoy me frequently. like the last one was,, we were walking together holding hands in a shop. and he saw his workmate chick and they sort of greeted from a distance then he released my hands and walked towards her and they started chatting for a little while. I was next to him,, but I was annoyed by the fact he left me little behind to talk to someone. I dunno I felt like someone not important by then. and while they were talkng they ignored me pretty much. he apologised for that later on coz I was upset.and he also said I was overreacted a bit. So my question is am I overreacting? Is it normal by the fact that he does things like that quite often which does upset me a lot? wot should I do? please share your thoughts with me

thanks

    Well maybe you should like clam down. I mean if you really love him why should it matter. If he was talking to a guy coworker would it bother you. He's a human not your pet he can talk to other people. Maybe think about what they were talking about and why you got upset. If what he does annoys you tell him it bothers you maybe he doesn't realize it. Talking to each other is what you do. Bottling up how you feel only makes thiings worse.

    Hi there. Thanks for all your replies.

    I thought I should close this blog now.

    It's been a while since I started this blog. Lots of things have happened. Good news is we're still together. Yes I told him how i felt about it and he told me that's not how it looked like and apologised me if it got understood wrong. That cleared those clouds i had in my mind.

    Anyway the main point is it's better to discuss about how you feel about your relationship earlier than later.

    We got engaged now and bought a house together and planning to have a baby soon :).

    Wish you all good luck :)

      Lol Congratulations!
      My boyfriend used to do this all the time. And it really used to get to me, so I talked to him about it, and now whenever we run into girls that he knows, he makes an extra effort to make me feel special and let them know I'm his girlfriend.
      High five for communication.

  • Yeah that was rude. Did he forget her name? That has happened to me with my partner, just couldn't recall the acquaintance's name to introduce & thought it would just be a quick greet... that can be pretty awkward for both. Ask him. Tell him how you felt. Clear the air or you'll collect grudges. If he doesn't listen/or change his behaviour, you'll know what to do.

    You are NOT overreacting. Trust me. My last boyfriend cheated on me the day after we started dating. It is understandable to be like you are. I am the same way. Another example is my other bf's ALL cheated on me, all except for the one that I am with now. Well techincally my fiance' now. We have been together for almost 2 years now, engaged for almost one year. Well when we were first together he did just about the same thing. He would do small things that he KNEW would annoy me. And we went to a concert, and he completely sat down beside a girl after he walked away to see her. I got so mad at him! And he apologized. But he quickly got out of the habit once he saw how mad it made me. It is a phase, so I am pretty sure that he will get out of it. But you are not overreating. Trust me! Good luck!
