Another thing- your problems are still your problems. They don't simply go away because his are worse. You should continue feeling comfort in confiding in him. It's these pieces of normalcy that he looks forward to with you. Feel free to bitch about the lady who cut you in line- you have every right. Just keep being yourself. Nothing is different here, you simply learned something about him that makes him the compassionate person he is. That is something you can remind him of when he gets scared of things being different.
Is it normal that I am confused about my boyfriend's traumatic past?
