First of all, please accept my heartfelt sympathies on the loss of your father.

Next....wow....as far as I can see, your boyfriend has failed you on all accounts. First he ignores you in your time of need....giving a clear message that your feelings and needs are secondary to himself and then he completely invalidates how your felt about his ignorance.

He's sending you a clear message what he is all about, and unfortunately for you, it isn't you!

Heck, many times we don't have to agree or like what another person is going through or feeling. But we can certainly validate that persons feelings and situation. It seems your boyfriend couldn't even do that much for you.

I would drop him like a hot potato. You deserve better, from yourself and from others in your life that are supposed to care about you. I believe that staying with a man like this will only bring you much more heartache, frustration and needless pain.

Of course, these are strictly my opinions. It took me a long time in life to find a man who was able to validate my feelings even if he didn't necessarily agree with them. I don't care if he agrees, they are my feelings not his. I just appreciate his efforts to validate. It means the world to me.

Wishinig you well MentalFloss! Oh, and welcome to PC!
