    Hey Iv been going out with bf for 6 years, last year has been really hard, we moved to another town for work, he lost his job and for the last few months has been working for free for previous employers trying to get new company started.
    Im doing a degree part time, in fact my last exam and project is due in tomoro and feel totally unprepared. Anyways he just picked a massive fight with me over not making him a cup of tea...? and basically just broke up with me after lots of words were said. I know im not totally blameless....but agggh . Im really F***ed off
    Hes a bit of a hot head, hes downstairs now, im fairly certain im still in a relationship, but why not wait till tomoro night!!!

    Hi OP, hope things seem better today with the light of day.

    Your partner lost his job and is working for free, and has the pressure of starting a new company. You are also under alot of pressure as well.

    There's no way he broke up with you over a cup of tea. There are lots and lots of little things i imagine that are all piling up for you both. Are you happy OP? 6 years is a long investment. You need to shelve the work / education / financial worries for a day or two to enable you both to sit down and talk this through. Listen, really listen to each other and get your prioroties in order. If he is your priority (and vice versa) then sacrafices may have to be made so you both can find the time to work on your relationship.

    Hope things blow over. Recessions will come and go, love, real love, is much harder to find. Best of luck.

    Hang in there........it will get better. Starting up a new company is a massive undertaking in this economic climate and the stress of it must be bad but he still shouldnt treat you like that! been there done that bought the t-shirt he needs to know he's over stepped the line and basically cant treat you like that. Sounds childish but the silent treatment might work until he realises he cant treat you like that! be strong! :) it'll be worth it when he apologises! :) and we all know makin up is the best part of a fight! :)

    I would try and totally put it out of my mind until after the exam, that's what you need to concentrate on. He picked a bad time to start a fight regardless of how much pressure he is under.
