im in a rln..happiest i have been ever. but i feel like im too much sensitive to handle. my partner shuts down and goes in the name of taking space. i understand taking space but i feel sometimes we should let the other person know that ok i will come back. here for 2 days we didnt talk about the fight.. i really wanted to and wanted his support. im someone who shut myself down if there is any issue and figure it out myself. So when im trying to change that and express my self more and then i get this avoidant behaviour i feel like i shouldnt share my issues and should deal it alone.

I think its absolutely normal to feel this way... Something that always helps me express myself (saying this as someone with similar problems as u) writing everything down is much easier to me than saying it out loud. Maybe you could text him when you had an argument and say you want to talk about it. And i honestly think that if you do this and he still shuts himself away that's a problem u can't fix.
Hope this helped! If not sorry...
