can"t breathe, can't sleep
3 am. unusual for me. I usually sleep like a rock. I'm not sure why I'm having trouble sleeping. could it be as simple as I'm having some boyfriend problems. I didn't even realize I was having boyfriend problems. They were all in his head and came spiraling out this evening. The thing is I'm more "needy" than he is and I have a more outgoing, gregarious personality. he is more introspective and self sufficiednt. But I am proud, and woe unto the person who accuses me of being insensitive to their needs.
I love him dearly, and I need to give him more "space". I'm happy to do so,but I can't read his mind. I mean, I'm not saying I'm innocent. Here's one example. He was trying to read tonight and I siad to him "do you have any idea how special you are" I guess I do things like that all the time and I can see how that would be pretty annoying if you're trying to concentrate, but I must not have clued into that otherwise I wouldn't have done it. I mean, ideally IK should have realized on my own but sometimes I get caught up in my own emotions and become a tad oblivious. plus since what I say is positive stuff I didn't see the harm. another example is I was practicing piano, which sometimes can be kind of lonely and he wanted to read so I asked him to read in the piano room, which I could sense he didn't want to do, but I talked him into it. A tad selfish.
See,, one of the problems is I'm very up front, and I get frustrated when other people aren't the same way. My feeling is he could have said, "please don't talk to me now,, IK'm reading" and when I invited him into the piano room, he could have said no. So I feel he should take some responsibility. But he's sensitive and I guess he was afraid to hurt my feelings. We've been together a relatively short time (dating 3 months, living together 3 months) I guess he just doesn't realize yet how strong I am. he will.
