My boyfriend came over in a good mood and all I've done was.rush him around and be a bitch. I'm so sick of myself. I can never make anyone happy.

2 Questions:

#1 Are you APPROPRIATELY medicated?

#2 Do you love him? (REALLY LOVE HIM)

The first step is recognizing that there is a problem.
So that's good! You've recognized it. Now like anji is tryingto help u with, figure out what makes u act that way.

(it's always easier to know what others need to do)

Sorry you're asking SuperBitch over here (me) to help you not be one... heh. Good luck though.

Most importantly, it's not your responsibility to make anyone happy except yourself! If someone who says they love you is incapable of quietly finding out what's going on then they might not be good people to have around.

Secondly, sometimes the only thing we have left to fall back on is bitchiness. (Yes, guys can be bitches too!) It would be good to understand and minimize it and have people around to help you with that.

That's the way I see it.

I think it's normal to get bitchy every once in a while, or even be like that for a span of time, but try to relax and enjoy other people's company. If you can relax - Maybe it'll make you less grumpy and thus more enjoyable to be around. :)

The only person you need/have to make happy is yourself. Boyfriend is responsible for his own happiness

I avoid being a bitch by being a complete prick.

It may be time to evaluate this relationship. I know I get irritable and nasty when I'm in the company of people that I don't want to be with.

I would ask yourself, "What is really going on here", then go from there.

I am super happy with him. It's a me issue. We're spending time together right now and I'm totally relaxed and happy. In my apt, ....grrr other than him just being a child and not turning the tv down when I'm in the bath trying to relax. Now I feel bitchy again. It happens that fast. One little stupid thing from anyone, not just him, and I get super pissed.
