There is a certain issue that keeps bothering me and its on whether you have to know everything that worries or troubles your partner (husband/wife/boyfriend/girlfriend). I would want my boyfriend or husband to be happy or in high spirits but if they looked sad, sounded sad, or seemed in a bad mood, I would want to know.
Knowing myself, I probably would not be at peace until I find out what the problem is. I would be worried to death about his well-being and where he insists that nothing is wrong, aside being worried and losing concentration, I begin to think either of these;
1. He is hiding something
2. If he loved me and cared about me, he would share his worries with me . (which sounds like emotional blackmail)
So the questions go thus;
1. Whenever your partner seems troubled or worried, is he or she under any obligation to share their worry or concern with you, or are they to be allowed some space to think without you interfering?
2. Is it fair for to keep an issue that is that obviously worries you away from partner, knowing fully well that they would be worried about you?
3. And in a situation where you keep asking what the problem is and they say nothing is wrong, what do you do or how do you relate with them without nagging, seeming so pushy or on the other hand, unconcerned ?
I would appreciate opinions on this issue.
