My boyfriend is cynical. Yeah, that'll wear you down. It's great if you want to
watch a comedian
for an hour, shit on things, but after a while, you know, you need to go get a
root beer float,
myself included. Maybe I was depressed because I heard my act on Saturday night.
Hi, Bill. So,
I only know about you because my boyfriend won't stop talking about you and he
listens to you
almost every other day. All right. Did I need to know that you had fucking, you
don't watch
anything that I do? I get it. You're not a fan. All right. I'm here to rant and
complain about
how cynical he is getting. LOL. It's upsetting because I've been the type of
person who is
understanding. Oh, okay. Let's shit on your boyfriend and talk about how great
you are
and gets excited about life. I try to cheer him up whenever he's down or try to
be a lending ear
when he needs to vent. Oh, but if you're positive and excited about life, yeah,
he's going to wear
you down, but he seems to have a vent and finds a problem for almost everything,
no matter how much
I try to be there for him and help. It's just getting so exhausting. He just
turned 30 and can
be so difficult to deal with and I'm starting to think that he has some kind of
mood disorder
or anger management issues. All right. Okay. I see where this is going because
I was this guy
and that's right around when it happened, right around 30. I don't know what to
do because it's
hard to move forward with someone who is constantly complaining and finds a
problem with everything and
seems to only worry about himself. All right. The way you described this guy,
you should break up
with him. I understand that life has its struggles, but he judges and rants and
complains about every
little thing. It's tiring to be around and I don't know what to do because he's
stubborn and difficult.
I try to be patient and understanding as best that I can. To be fair, he's self-aware
enough to know
that he can get like this, but I'm tired. I have needs too. LOL. All right.
Well, you seem like a
fucking happy, cool person with a good sense of humor. I don't know how bad
this is, but, uh, you know,
it's probably some sort of childhood issue and some right around 30, you know,
when you haven't found
your dream job, you're not married, you don't have kids. You don't, you start
to feel like you're getting
behind the herd. Um, and you don't quite know what the fuck's wrong with you
because as far as my life
went, my twenties and thirties was all about like fucking, you know, taking out
my childhood on other
people and lashing out at people before, you know, you get into your late thirties
and you go, all
right, well, I'm still sitting in this hole. Maybe it's something I'm doing. Um,
I would just tell
him just saying, listen, you're sucking the life out of me and I'm young and I'm
in my prime, which means
if I stay with you, if you continue to be like this, I'm going to die earlier.
Um, so why don't you
fucking go into therapy, try to turn that frown upside down or, uh, I'm going
to fucking leave, you
know, cause I have to, I do have to tell you this. You can't make somebody else
happy. You can't, they can
meet you and be infatuated with you and go through the initial stages of love.
But then after a while,
you know, they're going to kind of be who they are and, um, you know, something
like that can drag you
down to where they're at, which I would hate to see that happen to you. And I
hope I didn't do that to
anybody back when I was like that. Uh, not saying I'm a hundred percent cured
as you can tell by this
podcast. So, um, what can you do? All you can do in a, in a relationship is
communicate to somebody
what they're doing, you know, that is affecting you in a negative way. You can
also communicate to
them, you know, when they're doing something good too, ladies. Um, but you can't
fix them. So I would
communicate what you're saying to me, to him, see what he does with the
information. And if it's not
working for you, I would leave because if he's already acting like a fucking
crabby old man at
80, I mean, I'm sorry, at 30, what's going to happen when he's 80?
