Question - (4 May 2011) 1 Answers - (Newest, 4 May 2011)
A female United States age 36-40, anonymous writes:

my relationship has gotten unbearable. i feel as though i'm doing everything for my girlfriend, while i'm literally getting back nothing but stress and anxiety.

this week, i'm picking up her son from school and watching him every day until she gets off of work, or last night i let him stay the night with me because she got off late and he needed to be in bed. then this friday, i'm going to drive him to another state for her to see his grandparents for the weekend because she's going to be at work. she's also had car problems lately and i've let her practically have my car for the past three days, seriously inconveniencing myself for her. i feel like i'm constantly bending over backwards for her. and all i feel i get back in this relationship is rudeness, irritability, and unthoughtfulness. she never offers to do anything for me for all the things i sacrifice for her. she never cooks me dinner, or lays down and cuddles with me and sincerely thanks me. she never does even the smallest of things to try and show she cares. i'm at my wits end. i can't deal with it anymore. i don't know what to do. please, some advice. i've attempted talking to her, but she's like a brick wall. is it just too late?

So_Very_Confused agony auntsounds like both of you are under a lot of stress...

can you guys get some down time for a real date... ya know dinner... movie... maybe home for a game of "slap and tickle"

if you have tried to talk to her and she is not responsive I think you might have to let her know that you can't take it any more and give her time frames for what will happen when.
