Hi,
I have been with my gf for 2 years now, she has ibs and all the signs of a very anxious person.
Her anxiety is shown in different ways and it mainly comes out at me when we are together, for example if we go to a restaurant and she doesn't like the place (there wouldn't be anything wrong with the place) she will moan and will not enjoy her self - start arguing with me over nothing and pretty much ruin the night/day. She says it's her anxiety but I've met people who suffer with anxiety and they are not particularly mean people. She also says I need to be more understanding and softer, not sure if she's gaslighting me as Im pretty thoughtful and caring, her mood can twist and turn suddenly, she could meet me and act like she doesn't really want to meet like she wanted to stay at home but I always tell her if you want to meet later on etc thats fine no need to meet when your not ready.
Her choices effect me and the vibe if we are together, we can be having a conversation and she'll think that I have given her to much info about what she asked and she starts getting anxious and annoyed, when I have really good convo's with friends, work colleges and family where we openly talk and don't get annoyed at each other.
Has anyone experienced this behaviour before? or share there story to compare?
Any info is appreciated.
