She wants break up because she says I make her feel like shit.
Heres why she thinks this. She will constantly argue, she doesnt communicate. She just complains without a purpose. So when I say "you literally dont communicate or complain". Or "you dont talk to me" etc. She takes it as me talking down to her?
No, I just want her to get the idea that she needs to communicate. Im not saying im right either.
So how do I fix this? how do we come to a solution on how to communicate better for this. How do I approach her better without it seeming like im talking down to her?
Were gonna meet tonight after im off to discuss basically what wee need to work on and how were gonna do it..
I dont really know what im asking here... Any advice or tips?
Try this method of non-confrontational communication.
When you -insert here- it makes me feel like -insert here- next time could we -insert here-.
No raised voices, no attacks, just state what she is doing, how it makes you feel and how to solve that situation.
You say she argues and complains about nothing but it isn’t nothing, people’s feelings are theirs and they have the right to have them. Listen to her really actively listen. And then respond and try to have an intelligent conversation that solves the issue rather than being frustrated and getting nowhere. If she truly isn’t willing to do this, or you aren’t, who knows maybe your personality types just aren’t a match.
When you argue with me it makes me feel bad, can we try to have an intelligible conversation about what you want instead?
I know it sounds a little meh, but it works for me in many areas of life... give it a shot.
