Today, my boyfriend lost his temper with me and complained that my "constant" apologies for upsetting him drive him insane, and without thinking, I said I was sorry. He hung up and I haven't heard from him since. FML

cupcakechick tells us more.

hey guys, OP here, my bf is an amazingly great guy, and he cares about me very much, and Its just I have low self esteem, so even if I bump into him, ill apologize over and over again, and it bugs him because im always beating my self up, we have great communication, so later that day he called me back and apologized for being rude, im the luckiest girl alive to have a bf like mine :)

He just wants a makeup sex instead of sorry, OP

Trust me, I'm in the same boat. My ex would always put his hand over my mouth when he knew I was about to apologize, which was oftenXD

Well what would he rather have you say? "Go to hell?" "F$;? You!" Etc. I mean if your sorry, then your sorry. Honestly op you shouldn't have to apologize that much, it not you.....it's him. Time to start thinking about maybe calling it a day with that ********.

its not him, its me, but like I keep saying, hes very understanding of what im going through right now, and he trys to help me

So apologizing for upsetting him is bad? What response fid he want: " Too f'ing bad. Deal with it". I would think an apology would be better than someone who never admits wrong.

Some boyfriends are completly making sense, while this one is not. OP, your boyfriend needs to apolgize to YOU. Although I don't know HOW many times you have said you are sorry, I really think that your boyfriend is big douchebag.

He sounds like a jerk. BUT, you sound like you need to boost your self-esteem. Get a shrink, or, if you can't afford one, get a self-help book on being assertive. I've been there, done that... you can help yourself, so go for it! : )

DUMP! If you constantly feel the need to apologise constantly then why are you with him?

because we love each other and its what I do to him, altho I don't actually do anything, I just feel the need to apologize if I do something that I feel is wrong

one of my last relationships, the girl CONSTANTLY apologized.and worried about how she was acting, mostly when NOTHING was wrong and I was completely happy with things. She just drove me crazy after so long of having to put up with trying to calm her down and tell her everything is okay. I obviously don't know your entire story, OP, but if it's anything like my experience then perhaps it isn't as ridiculous as you'd wish for it to sound on his behalf. (ps, I don't know the OP whatsoever, what happened to me happened more than a year ago)

exactly the same situation, im not apologizing as much now, and hes really helping me, so I have his support

Obviously it's a reflex action for you, and you really should look at why that is. Did (do) you have a dominating parent or parents who constantly criticize you? Do you feel inferior to other people? Apologizing shouldn't be your "go to" reflexive action. It speaks of poor self-esteem, and you should probably get a handle on that.

my parents did, so I was always apologizing for everything
