It's confusing because I thought I was patient.
When we talked on the phone, he would call me at night. I'm not sure why, but he would always call me at nearly midnight. Once, I asked him why he couldn't call me earlier in the day and he told me that he was too busy.
Maybe I could have been more forgiving.
When we were both invited to a party and he told me to stay home and not go to the party, I should'nt have felt suspicious. We had just been out earlier to play tennis and when he decided to go to the party I should've just stayed home and not thought about it. I tried.
I hope I was compassionate.
When he told me that he was sick, I told him I hoped that he would feel better and that I would make him chicken noodle soup. He always refused and I didn't push him to take any. I probably nagged a little when I told him that I wanted to make him soup.
I tried to give him things but when I wouldn't take them I would'nt ask him again.
Sometimes I got free stuff at work. He always took his lunch to work and I wanted to give him a the lunch box for work, but he told me that he didn't want it.
I always wanted to talk the arguments out if there ever was one.
