Ok so my boyfriend and I have been dating for a little over a year and a half and things have been pretty good.
Last weekend he went to a wedding with me and unfortunately a lot of people who attended got covid. I’m fine but he got it and ever since he found out he’s been really distant. I’ve tried to text him and see how he’s doing and he gives really short responses and when I try to ask more he just says “I’m fine” which he clearly isn’t.
At first I just chalked it up to him not wanting to talk because he doesn’t feel well. That was until last night when he told me that the whole wedding rubbed him the wrong way because the first time meeting my family he gets sick and everyone was supposed to test beforehand. I tried to explain that while it’s unfortunate that this happened he could get covid anywhere. I mean he went to a concert a couple weeks ago where no one was wearing a mask and could’ve easily gotten it then. He was lucky and he didn’t but it could’ve happened. Also people could’ve taken a test and have it come back negative because they tested to soon or something.
I’ve apologized to him so many times because I feel bad he got sick, but like I shouldn’t even have to apologize because it’s not my fault he got sick. He made the choice to come, I didn’t force him. How were we supposed to know that was going to happen?
I asked him where we stand and all he said was “we’re fine” and then said that he just had a lot going on and this didn’t help. His parents are also apparently pretty upset with him about the whole thing too which I feel bad about. His parents really liked me and now I feel like that’s ruined.
I think I’m just going to stop texting him and just give him some space for a bit but like idk what else to do. I don’t want this to be the end of our relationship, but it sort of feels like it is even though he said we’re fine.
