Advise for depressed boyfriend that won’t talk to me
I’ll try to make it short. Me (24F) amd my boyfriend (24M) have been together for about 7 months.
He always told me that he struggled in the past with depression and that he disappears from time to time, he doesn’t give any explanation to his friends because they already know he does this but he wanted to explain it to me so that I’m aware. So far this hasn’t been an issue, but for the past week he hasn’t replied to any of my texts, videos I sent, etc. I have seen him post storys with some friends but that’s all.
Has this happened to anyone before? Im not sure what to do because I want to be there for him but he’s not replying, and I’m left feeling like he is in a bad state but he’s also hanging out with friends.
We did talk and he told me that his finding it difficult to connect with everyone, that is a bit easier with his friends because it’s a different relationship. I get that so I don’t want to be insistent that we see each other.
Is this common? For people to push partners away but no si much their friends?
I also want to send him a message saying that if he needs anything he can tell me and I’ll be there for him but I’m not sure if that would be something positive or not.
