Doesn't sound like a healthy relationship and with excuses too. Sometimes we need to step back and evaluate what is really going on in a relationship and take steps, don't be a door mat and opt for the quiet life, as I doubt it will change
Being in a relationship is teamwork, caring and sharing by doing things together, that means even the mundane things.
Whatever you do, take care of No 1, yourself.

This is always a hard post to comment on because there are always two sides to every story and we sometimes end up painting ourselves as paragons of virtue and the totally innocent party simply BECAUSE we have diabetes and that tops all else, or as if that in itself makes us always in the right. Of course when we are ill or in medically compromised situations it IS an absolute priority that your partner is on the ball and doing what needs doing. In this case it seems that @kaylz91 needed some support following that episode and that is perfectly understandable. I can imagine though that her partner sees her sitting there 'looking alright' and has gone about his normal business. Kaylz, I'm getting the impression this is about so much more than his attitude towards diabetes per se, it sounds like there are issues that any other couple might have (and in this case diabetes in isolation is getting the 'blame'). It's easy for all of us to demonise our relationships especially when we are at a low point but I then get to thinking, what is there about him that I DO like (!), if for Kaylz the answer is nothing then well.....but if he is good in other ways then that's worth thinking about too. After all NONE of us are perfect. Good luck love. x
