Me and my boyfriend have been together for three years.
Everything has been relatively good.
Recently, my boyfriend has been getting jealous that I talk more to my fish after work than him.
I've had the fish longer than we've been together and I always talk to my fish after work.
The talking to fish is literally just a way I decompress after work.
I just rant to my fish about things that happened throughout the day.
Usually it's stuff my boyfriend doesn't want to hear.
Usually it's just a 15 to 20 minute one-sided conversation.
Over the last two weeks, he's gotten annoyed that immediately after getting home, I usually stand in front of the fish tank and mostly just rant.
Today, I decided to, instead of ranting to my fish, just sit on the couch and rant to him.
And he mostly ignored me and watched TV and even got upset a few times that I was talking about things that didn't matter while he was watching TV.
He doesn't want to listen to me after work or want me talking to my fish.
I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong.
I will say our relationship has been fine the past two weeks, other than him getting upset about me talking to the fish.
We still talk to each other about stuff.
He just doesn't want to hear about my work day.
And I don't blame him.
No, you heard it right.
Like, you can't talk to your fish and also shut the fuck up.
