I have an inability to connect with people. In this particular case I am referring to my partner. I pretend to feel all emotions. The day to day is easy, the intimate part of the relationship is what is difficult. However it all together has finally begun to wear me down. Lately I just can't be bothered. It's all come undone since we started living together.
My emptiness has become noticed. My partner thinks that the way 'i am' is a new thing and that it must be because of him. I give the old 'it's not you, it's me' ... but I don't know how to talk more honestly than that.
My favourite thing is to lay my head on his chest and hear his heart beating. It gives me reassurance.
So...
How do I survive and salvage this relationship? What do I say that will convince him that it really isn't him and that he needs to stop blaming himself. God damn it!!!
