The Redditor expected their partner to come with them. But their SO backed out.
For people with depression, it can be keeping a relationship can be a bit tough. It can also be tricky for their significant other, especially if they're not sure how to offer support.
Dealing with depression is a challenge that both people in a relationship can't just brush aside. However, it's something they can tackle together.
Sadly it can be so challenging for some people, that they consider breaking up with their depressed partner. That's because it's also taking a toll on their mental health.
On the "Am I The A**hole?" (AITA) subreddit, a user shared a story about their partner's reaction when they went ahead with their plans, despite their significant other asking them to stay put.
The original poster (OP) tells the community that they've been in a relationship for five years. Their partner has been dealing with depression, and it has been weighing them down.
One day, when the OP made plans to hang out with friends. They already made their partner know beforehand and they even invited their SO to come.
As they were heading out, their partner stopped them from going. The OP tried to comfort their SO before going ahead with their plans.
Comforting their partner wasn't enough. The couple got into a fight, and according to the OP, the remaining days of Easter sucked.
With the way their partner reacted, the OP is considering couples therapy.
Pushing the role of a shrink onto the OP is unfair.
It's completely okay that the OP kept their word and hung out with their friends that night. Having depression doesn't excuse the SO from being controlling or dismissive of the OP's choices.
The partner needs to understand that couples should support each other through difficult times, but understanding boundaries and respecting individual decisions is crucial, even when one is dealing with depression.
What would you have done if you were in the OP's shoes?
