I want him to tell me if something is bothering him but he wont! What should I do?

Question - (2 April 2012) 0 Answers - (Newest, )
A female United States age 30-35, anonymous writes:

I've been in a past relationship where I was doing something that bothered my boyfriend at the time. He didn't mention it to me at all until he finally wanted to break up with me. Up until then I had no idea and I felt that if I had known, the relationship would have turned out better.

I am currently in a new relationship that has been going on for almost 2 years now. I did something to irritate my boyfriend, saw that something was wrong, and asked him about it. He told me, but then said it's something he's not irritated about anymore (that he was over it), but if it happens again, it would irritate him again. I then went on to say that, "if it's just going to irritate you again, then shouldn't you tell me?" His answer was "no".

I'm frustrated because I'm trying to avoid "history repeating itself" by telling my boyfriend that he needs to tell me if something is really bothering him so that I can do something to change it and make things better, but he thinks he shouldn't.

Am I being reasonable? What do I do?
